CRITICISM FOR REPRE-

Cosby, Tenn. FEB. 5, l9l3.-To The
Editor of The PLAIN Talk.
81 would like TO give the people a
few of my thoughts concerning the
work of orr representative, c. +. Boy
err at Nashville.
"in the first place, Mr.. Boyer said
he would 90 TO Nashville AMI work for
the best interest to his county, and lay
aside all strife and instead of that, he
joined hands With the Regular Demo-
Gratis ring and voted with them all
the way through. don't see how he
could afford 10 lay aside the big body
ofsuppor,ers and take up a littlebunch
of regular democrats, when he knows
well and good that the Republicans
and Indedendent Democrats could not
get Air ii they were in jug.
"How can MIR. Boyer look his
friends in the face after doing like he
has done. His friends here are true
Republican and he can get their votes
any more. II he goes TO Nashville any
more he will have 10 get the Regular
Democrats to put him there. We con-
slider him y traitor to the party which
has helped him 10 he offices of honor
in the past. We consider his work
shameful and disgraceful to the coun-
ty' .r
