It is useless for the democratic machine politicians
here attempt to revive public interest in the case
of Richard Craig the election officer appointed
the Fourth election district the Second ward The
Democrats did their utmost to ruin this man., and
failed signally Not content with that they endeavor
ed to prevent him serving election officer in this
election. They failed in that, too. They know full
well that after a has been appointed and COM
missioned as an election officer, the Department OF
Elections is powerless 20 remove him unless persons
charges against him in writing, and those max
ing the charges prove them in formal proceedings
taken publicly. The Democrats have not dared 20
the formal charges because they know they can
not sustain them. The best they do is to send
letters of protest the Department of Elections, not
because they expect official action thereon, but be-
cause they desire to have them printed in the news
papers to deceive the voters relative to the status
of the Craig case. 1t merely is new form Of an old
Democratic trick by subterfuge what they do not
dare to attempt to do openly. Craig is election
officer; the Democrats have failed to prove charges
against him; he is serving in that capacity today
and the voters will permit themselves to be dis
turbed by the senseess rantng of the Democratic ma
chine politicians, who have many worse men re-
presenting in various election places in our city
and State.
