The Goat.
AS has always been done heretofore,
when an election has been carried
against the ticket supported by the
Times Republican. the entire disaster
is being charged UP 10 the newspaper.
Those who aided in the result OF
the voting are always quick 10 make
the accusation. and those who are at
loss 10 explain how il happened accept
the charge. Somebody has TO be the
goat.
This phenomenon in our local poll
tics has been repeated so often that
the publishers OF the Times Repuoil-
can have been trained &c expect il. II
the newspaper evades responsibility in
campaign and there is defeat. its
friends then censure ii for not helping.
and if II advances to the front Of the
battle the opposition sees 10 il that the
newspaper shall take all Of the pun
ishment. while its workers, knowing
that the backs of fearless publishers
must OF necessity be broad. stand by
and let them take it.
However, let il be remembered, that
the choice was put squarely up 10 the
campaign council Of the Jones ticket.
with all three candidates and their
friends present, and the offer of the
newspaper was TO get in or TO stay
out. and the unanimous choice of the
entire group, candidates included, was
that the newspaper should call atten-
ton in its own way 10 the issues which
were clearly defined in this election.
The result would have been the
same. however. in any event, for at
Ottur2wa where they have only one
big newspaper, whose policy is always
TO stay out, the people who put the
saloons out could not elect city ad-
rninisrration.
