A Statement from the
Independent Democrats

To the Editor of the Sum-
We notice in the Sun of yes
terday, the 2lst, in the speech
of Heron q. Pearson, he de.
nounces us as Republicans; he
very well knows he grossly mis-
represents us, and his statements
are not true. The Republicans
that are supporting US as Demo
Gratis and not Republicans; there
is not q candidate in the field
from either party but what would
be glad TO get the Republican
vote, We have always been
Democrats and thrust at US now
is made for the purpose Of irving
to prejudice our Democratic
friends against us.
Mr.. Pearson also denomlnates
us an Republican nominees. We
were nominated by some of the
best Democrats in Madison coun-I
ty aud without a Republican in
the convention. Some time at
TOR that we were endorsed by
the Republicans and in their en-,
dorsement they did not claim us
as anything but Independent
De emocrats.
Now, ia regard to the congress
sional race, we participated In
the primary and We are standing
for the nominee, Mr.. Sins, and
we are not expected to. vote for
Mr.. DeFord, and we are not
working against the adminlstra
tion Of PresidenaA Wilson, and
our votes carried the state for
him. Aud nov, as Independent
Democrats, we are asking the
support Of all voters Of whatever
party. We are not seeking q
controversy in the newspapers,
and we think what We have said
is sufficient to let the people
know where we are standing,
therefore we have nothing more
to say.
