Dear Editor. In Commenting on

tion this Fall, | notice You are Ia fav-
or Of the Crawford System as against

thank you for your open expression
on this subject. You have always
been one Of the most conservative Of
men. and ever ready 70 speak for
the welfare Of the party. you say
you believe the people want the
Crawford System "
That Is right, and they intend to
have IL clean and fair, or there will
be no Democrat ticket elected this
Fall. | have talked with many
democrats and every man says be
will not be bound by the ruling OF Q
few in q convention. Last Tues
day q gentleman from the End Dis
trict gave me bis experience. He
said, he went to Leonardtown as o
Delegate and was told that he must
vote for Messrs. A.. b. & O., as
against other men, he thought more
worthy. after some talk, he said 10
the would be boss. to h---- with
your Convention | will never attend
another" Some years agoII bad o
somewhat similar experience. A
recognized leader Of the party asked
me to second q motion which be
would make with SPEECH" | told
him that could not, as we did not
agree. He remarked. III you don't,
| will make you regret IL. I" My re-.
ply, perhaps. was more expressive
than polite, and / added, II want
you to understand, when we think
alike we will act together. but when
| think proper TO differ from you /
will not allow you or any other man
10 dictate 10 me. The Convention
wound up with o break. I was not
one of the boilers. but the leader
above mentioned was. These two
instances are cited TO show how IN
individual few try TO run Conven-
lions then pose as party LEADERS,
and gather In the leaves and fishes,
to which they are not entitled, and
yet we are told that Mr.. So and So
was fairly nominated. Is IL any
wonder that the people refuse to
support such candidates
| know friend King, that am
looked upon as an independent, and
yet there are hundreds like me.
many Of whom are supposed never
to have scratched u ticket. So far
