Editors Hartford Herald;-Per.
nit me to say through the columns
of your paper that l am still on the
trail of the Cow Moosers.
Just shut your eyes and listen tc
their tale of woe in regard to the
recent registration. They are al
ways ready to give reasons for their
shortcomings and wrong-doings
Moosers have been claiming Louis
vile, Lexington, Covington, Frank.
fort, greensboro and almost the en-
tire world But since they made a
bad third-class certificate in the
/ first examination, their mouth-piece
/ (Walker) comes along with the
/ Cow Moose balm-of-Gilead cure for
all losses and causes, and says the
reason for such bad showing in reg
istration was for the purpose of
trying to control the Republican
party in 1913. But remember the
watch-word: Thou shalt not
steal" neither be a wolf in sleeps
clothing.
Now, remember when you are
playing a game of draw poker and
try to run a sandy" and some one
with a pair calls your hand, then
you lose. So beware of trying to
run a bluff unless you can show the
real stuff. Now personally | have
the most profound respect for all
of our county officials. Would be
willing to render unto them at any
time any favor | could in any way,
except in their present attitude to-
ward our party. | think they have
become a set of political ingrates
Do not think they are showing any
gratitude to the party that put
them where they are. They seem
to think they have the reins of the
party in Ohio county and will lead
themselves to Office again in 1918,
also be able to distate who shall be
their successors. because the Moos-
ers seem to be in the majority. But
my word for it, this will be one
time the minority will control the
majority.
Now, in regard to our county
Surveyor and Assessor, they still
stand pat to the party where they
first saw the light, and are getting
their daily bread and meat.
My mind wanders back to other
days and | fondly recollect the
faces of so many of the dead who
were always ready to volunteer
when our party principles we're at
stake. They were not ofice-seek-
ers, neither were they pie-hunters,
but they had the welfare of our
party at heart. refer to such men
as Wade N, Martin. Capt. Richard
Taylor, Capt. Benjamin Duvall,
Will Dyer Taylor, Leonard Taylor,
Clay Leach, Brost Leach. Jacob
Leach, John ]. Leach, JOB Will
Jams, Uncle Cary Ashley, Vol Ash
ey, Samuel Wallace, w. H. Stew
lrt, Henry Crowder, NJ. S. Rag
and, Samuel Wilson, Nicholas Bar
ass, Wood B. Tinsley, DR.. L. T.
COX, DR.. J. L. Lilies and others.
Now such men as the above
famed would never have forsaken
heir party and followed a bolter,
ecause one man cried thief"
nd said Tart was a retail thief
iould steal by the small. But the
reat IL am" IT. r. can steal by
OBJ lots or Wholesale and it's all
}. K. Now, Cow Moosers, who
ave a house-cleaning, get rid of
alifornia, Kansas and other States
GU are so wrongfully trying to OBJ
ain from Taft, and then cry
thief"
So hoping your head and heart
lay get right towards the Repub-
can party, as | hope it is with
our God, so We can once more
asp hands and do battle with our
'mmon enemy, I am
