Republican Machine, will be unable
to control the Democratic caucus. |
They know there is one Democrat {
in the State above all others whom |
the DUPONT Republican Machine
fears and hates. That Democrat
happens to be the choice Of ma jor-
ity of the Democratic members OF =
the Legislature, to whom the sp.5em-
ocratic voters have entr.>Isted the
duty of making tbee nomination, as
well as the cbeiolce Of an overwhelm-
ing ma joMnty of the Democratic vot-
ers pa the State, and if the selection
us made by Democrats they know
that he will be chosen. They know
the DUPONT Republican Machine
will go to any lengths to beat him
and will gladly throw the Repub-
lican vote to SOME Democrat accept
able to reactiona{,,es in general and
, to the DUPONT Machine in partic-
ular. Hence the frantic effort to
find a few Democratic traitors, four
, poor misguided men elected to the
, Legislature as Democrats who will
, betray their trust and try to turn
. over the control of Democratic
, party affairs to the enemy, the du
. Pont Machine. as long ago poor
f Benedict Arnold betrayed his coun-
try and tried to hand it over to the
British. Traitors seldom succeed
: in their nefarious purposes. Ben
/, edict Arnold did not succeed i'll
handing the country over to the
, British Farlow, King and Clark
/ did not succeed in electing Addicks,
and we opine that a sufficient num-
Der Of traitors and boilers cannot
:. be secured among the Democratic
a members of the Legislature to turn
Q over to the dupont Republican Ma
chine the privilege of naming the
!. next SentaOr.
