THE ISSUE.

The Bulletins cartConist this morn
ing suggests in a very striking man
.ner the predominant issue In the con.
gressional contest now pending in
this district. As The Bulletin has
contended all along, the principal
question is not personal either 70
Capt. Thistlewood or to Mayor Par
sons. Both are good men in their
ways. each has his faults to be sure
as we all have ours, and If we chose
to pursue toward Capt Thistlewood
the line of attack which the Evening
Citizen has pursued against May r
Parsons, ii could be easily shown taat
where the latter is vulnerable, the
former is quite as much so, and in
some instances considerably mcra so.
What the Republican voters of this
district are concerned about is their
freedom from machine domination:
they wish above all things else to al
minister an emphatic and well-de-
served rebuke to the men who have
for years presumed to manipulate
the narty's affairs for their own ends
All you have to do is to vote the
ticket, has been their dictum-
We'll fix up the ticket" And in the
fixing up of the ticket there has al
%ays been special reference TO the
personal interests of a certain little
clique who have held sway in the
district, asserting their power die.
tatorially against all who would
bend the knee and doff the cap. ds.
regarding the expressed wishes of
their constituents whenever it suited
their personal interests to do so.
The Citizen does not speak for the
Republican party of this district in it's
utilization Of Mayor Parsons but for
the Great Oofdegoof Of the cong ees-
sional machine whose whining Little
Eedilda it has always been.
