, Last week we received an interesting
, communication from our friend Weary
Willie, who is now located at Grundy,
= Va, but as it was in some manner mis-
placed we were forced to omit it from
, our news columns. However, Weary
) Willie, who is dyed-in-the-wool Dem
/ ocrat, says he finds it impossible to
reconcile himself to the idea of support
! ing the Machine nominees of his party
| this year, and he 10 going to do just
what many hundreds of other good
= Democrats are going to do, support
Captain Kent and the other clean, able
nominees on the Republican ticket.
Willie says he is still Democrat, but a
disgusted one, and that he refuses to
eat crow on this occasion.
