vote on the gubernatorial race, He |
cant decide whether he il for Major
or Cowherd. Now if either one would |
give him job of printing thousand |
cards all would be settled. '--Caruth-
erSville Democrat.
We reproduce the above only |
to show the littleneSS, narrow
ness and contemptibleneSS OF the |
man. Such remarks are below
the dignity of any self-respect-
ing newspaper. Everybody
knows we are for Major, although |
we are making no fight against
Cowherd. And everybody |
knows that we will not accept |
money to boost a candidate not
to our liking, as the Democrat is
doing in the candidacy of Houch
in.
"Despite Bill York's avowed hos
tility, Secretary of State Roach will
lead the democratic ticket in Pemiscot
county this year "-Caruth-
ersville Democrat.
Since the Justification of the
politics of the Herald in The Of
ticial Manual of the State of Mis-
souri, was the fault of Lacey and
not the fault of Roach Roach
says Lacey did it and Lacey ad
mitS that he did and Roach hav-
ing no democratic opponent, we
will vote for Roach, in the pri-
mary and in the general election.
If Roach had an opponent, or if
he ever has one, we might oppose
him, but we are too good dem
ocrat to be swayed by personal
: feeling.
1.-The Hayti Heralds editor gets
'alI het up' over SOME HOUCHIN
ARTICLES which are APPEARING
IN THE DEMOCRAT. If the Herald
man has enough brains to grease "a
9;imlet he knows that every paper has
what its editor terms the editorial
column, and that he is supposed TO
express his views, if he has any, here.
The news columns arc devoted tn pub
fishing the news and advertising mat
ter. No editor endorses all that ap-
pears in his news columns, for if he
did it would be a one-man paper, and
a very poor man at thai. The Dem
ocrat is unhesitatingly for Cownerd
for governor, but its editor is not so
small or biased as to exclude all
other candidates from its columns. =
J Charlottesville Democrat.
I'll just be darned.
1 If that amt the limit.
: Now, we had always given Bill
D Lacey credit with having more
t sense, even after our suit of
S5S. .l23 against him, which he
compromised rather than face
; the court.
~ In Oklahoma and Kansas there
is law against just what the
Democrat is doing, and congress
is working on IA law of the same
: nature. These laws are right in
- line with the pure food and drug
- laws, to protect the people from
~ impOSterS.
>, There is a difference between
~ advertising painkiller and pills
and politics.
If "a newspaper advertiSes hail
= restorer, gout cure, turnip seeC
- or diaper cloth the discerning
public can readily recognize tina
same is not the editors person
Sonal opinion.
" If an editor advertise dog bis
~ cult, dehorning powders or corr
\, and wart cure, any blame foe
- reader would know he was no
:" trying to deceive them, but tina
the matter was paid for.
i' Not so with political matter,
. Lacey is publishing stuff tina
says that Millionaire Houchin
i'm the greatest and best cand
! date for governor, all about hi
lis friendship for the farmer, the Ii
boring man and the toiling mas.
ot es, to fool and deceive the PEE
an pie, all for the sake of the fe'
all paltry dimes this millionaire pay
ch him, and Lacey opposes him i
d. the race.
TIA Why don't Lacey mark til
matter paid" sign Houchin'
