The Caucasian. (Clinton, N.C.) 188?-1913, 1911-11-16
A Letter From HaInett County.

Editor Caucasian:-Some days at
ter the last election Republican and
Democrat was talking on the subject
of voting. The Democrat said ne
wanted to vote for two or three OF
the men on the Republican ticket,
but he had always voted the Demo
cratic ticket.
The Republican said: why don't
you scratch your ticket" The Dem
ocrat said: ST did not think could
do anything like that; | thought
when I voted the Democratic ticket |
had to vote the whole thing" The
Republican said: "Of course you can
scratch your ticket and vote for any
man on the other sid" The Demo
crat then said: ST didn't know that
before, and said that any man that
didn't have any more sense than that
ought not to be allowed to vote st
ALL"
On the day OF the last election a
Democrat walked up to Republican
candidate and said: 81 know that
you would make US better oficer
than the other man, but have al
ways voted the Democratic ticket,
and I can't vote for YOU" The Re
publican candidate said to him: my
friend, that is a very poor policy.
Some months past Republican
and Democrat was eating in the same
restaurant. Something was said about
the price of cotton. The Democrat
had Just sold a few bales and had
got a good price for it. The Repub-
ncan remarked to him: WASN'T
prices better under the Republican
administration than 1t was under the
Democratic?" The Democrat admit
