refusing to go to the polls and vote
In the recent general election, didn't
repudiate and condemn the National
Democratic administration for the
shameful treatment given them In
their trouble, then We. are as blind
as a three day old pup. and there's
no use to be "whipping"l the
devil around the stump and deny
ing the fact. The common people did
not intend to endorse in the general
election what they themselves had
done In the primary. Now we are told
that the light vote was due to the
fact that the people were too busy
to go out and vote, yet up here at
the Five Forks box some OF the man
ayers didn't even vote and some of
the voters were there with their reg.
istratioa certificates and tax receipts

like they were ito. busy!
