The plan outlined byaMr. Kennedy
was adopted in this judicial district.
Former Lieutenant Governor, Bart
lett of Cooperstown spoke briefly.
He said no Republicans in this
county were going to vote for Burke;
the sentiment there is unitedly Re-
publican, and while the statement
has been circulated for effect that
Republicans are going to vote for
Burke, few or none would do So. He
had failed to find any Republicans
who at any time had expressed any
intention or showed any inclination
that way. There has been nothing
in Burke's administration which
lifted it out of the ordinary
and the promises and expectations
before his election had failed to ma
terialize. T.. n
Chairman Porter of LaMoure
county told briefly of political con-
ditions there and Secretary Wallace
of this city spoke of the work being
done here. s- ~. 4@. - ',-.,,,
Chairman Roach of Bordulac said
Foster is one Of the strong Republi-
can counties, and though it had diff
ferences is united this fall. +, ~
Chairman Kennedy of New Rock
ford, a county official for number
of years, reported of Eddy county.
The chairman of Barnes county
said he didn't see how Burke could
expect any Republican votes this
year. Committeeman Warner said
that the statement is frequently
made by voters that they voted for
Burke last time but intend to vote for
Johnson. . s.. ..rs, - e. sFs ~
Mr.. Buchanan said that Governor
Burke, Democrat, is a political ac-
cident, whose administration has been
clean and all right-it could not have
been otherwise for the remainder OF
the official family has been Republi
can. But this state does not believe
in accidents and there is no reason
why any voter should favor him.
There Is nothing which Burke could
do which johnson could not--and
much more beside. G56ay .say,st
Editor FAIRIES referred to a the
many broken promises of the gov
ernor and how his deeds have failed
to meet the many assertions he made
prior to his election, Iii
/ Editor Stevens Of Wimbledon said
in his vicinity Republicans who
would vote for Burke would be
scarcer this fall than he had found
prairie chickens 80 far. 5ss
