feated for the republican nomina-

serenely as an independent candidate

bile-dealing register of deeds who

The personnel of the republican
county ticket is such this year that
none need blush for the party. They
are entitled to the full party vote at
the coming election. It's about
time that the old fractional bicker-
ings were relegated to the rear and
those who will not divorce them
selves from the same be relegated
with them. Some of the renegade
republican politicians who have ex-
posed themselves by their actions
this year are +. B. Irvine. ]. p.

we're cast sporadically and were not

plan that was in operation when the

mary campaign? It's about time
that politics by profession be given
a body blow and a little more homes

law and order. Listen: And will
endeavor to suppress all unneces-
sary litigation This quotation TO-
taken from the announcement Of IL.
C. Lynn. democratic candidate for.
states attorney.
Since when has it become the
duty of the states attorney
to "squelch" litigation? Since
when has the states attorney be-.
come judge and jury with the ex-i
pressed intent of trying them and
throwing them out of court before
they ever reached there?
In that sentence relative to
"squelching" litigation the present
democratic candidate has put his
finger IN the weak spot in the ar
NOR of his estimable step-father and
present incumbent of the Office the
junior Lynn row seeks to secure.
And, without touching on the hun
dred and one other reasons why
those aspirations are doomed to an
early death, we will give the above
quotation from the democratic can
didate's platform as the grounds
for his reputation at the polls.
Does Mr.. Lynn, Jr.. presume that
he can cater to the elements in this
county interested in blind pigs and
blind plugging without eliminating
all chance of support from that por-
tion of the citizenship that believe
in a condition Of law and order?
Has his education during the past
year or so in matters pertaining to
the states attorney Office led him tc
believe that winking at the duties
of the office makes him "solid" with
the majority of the voters of this
county? If he is so obtuse as to fai
} to grasp the situation. then he il
more to be pitied than censnred.
During the past year and halt
the complaint of the people of thi!
county has been that the states at
torney was too strong on suppress
ing unnecessary litigation Ii
fact. when the city magistrate tool
minor before the states attorney
and listened to him tell his story O,
buying Intoxicating liquors from
blind-piggers in Linton on 9Th,
Fourth of July. the city attorne,
suppressed unnecessary litigation
When complaint was made to thu
states attorney that condition TOT
vile for belief existed in a home il
the northeastern part of the county
he investigated and suppressed un
necessary litigation" When people
from all parts of the county wer.
talking about the furnishing blind
pig business in Linton on the Fourth
of July, the suppression of unneces
sary litigation seemed to be thu
watch-words.

had the same chance as q result Of
one vote for him on the socialist
ticket. But Reemts is man Of
much different moral fiber than
Friend Irvine and Reemtz promptly
withdrew his name from the ticket
and declared himself for the candi-
date who won the nomination fairly
and squarely over his head and the
heads of the other candidates. Lam

supporting the victor. But Irvine

thing. And Schott is worse. Be-

ing to turn a trick that is a little
short of the desplcable record he
brazenly admits to be his at his for

had as square a deal as ever can
didate for political honors received,
in face of the unsavory record for
honesty which he carried.

He pioneered at old Danbury in the
