Pat Lynch-His Measure.

We do not intend to pay much attention to
Pat Lynch in this campaign 1t isn't necessary.
He is not even in the hot race between Ebert
Russell and Finley Gray. But one little grand
stand play he has been pulling off during his
campaign in Wayne county deserves mention
if only for furthering the education of the aver
age voter in the psychology Of vote getting by
machine candidates.
Says Pat, in substance, though not literally
in the speeches he has been delivering in Wayne
county, "You people have all read in the news
papers of the attack being made on Homer Cook
the Democratic candidate for secretary of state
and speaker of the house in the last legislature.
have in my pocket the reproduction of letter
alleged to have been written by Cook, and which,
if that is true, would deeply incriminate him.
II have carried this letter with me all through
my campaign in the district, but have never
yet had the heart to read it to the people. I am
not going to read it to you now. Cook is up in
the northern part of the state campaigning. He
can't be here to refute the alleged criminality in
this letter.
Even if he were here on this platform in
joint debate with me don't know that I would
have the heart to read that letter, for he has a
wife and chidren-sob racket with the voice
at this point-"and so have a wife and children.
would rather discuss the gurr-rate issues now
before the country than drag in personalities )"
Why, in heavens name Pat, if you feel so
deeply for Homer Cook, the man who stands in
dicted in the minds of all decent citizens of this
state, as one who was false to their interests,
why then, Pat, do you mention the poor sinners
name at all in your addresses?
Why, if you have such sincere sympathy for
Cooks wife and children, do you drag his name
into your addresses with the hint of criminalty
and then refuse to read the alleged proof you
claim to have?
Why do you drag into your discussions with
one breath personalities and with the next de-
clare you would rather dwell on great issues than
personalities?
Why, if you are the bright, brainy keen man
your press agent makes you out to be, do you
indulge in such mawkish and amateurish senti-
mentality before the intelligent audiences you
are facing in Wayne county and expect them
to be so Grass as to give you credit for deeply
sympathetic heart-beating warmly even, for a
man who has dragged the fair honor of our state
into the mire of political infamy?
We understand you go to Rush county next
week. there jointly with Jim Watson to cam
paign that territory. God help those poor peo.

Will Ralston Explain?

So indignant is Governor Ralston over the
attacks made on Homer Cook, former speaker of
the house of representatives and now Democrat
ic candidate for secretary of state, that he had
grand jury called to investigate these charges,
and he has taken the stump to defend this man
whose record stands as disgrace to the state.
In Richmond and elsewhere in the state, Earl
Crawford, who represented Wayne and Fayette
counties in the last house, being elected as a
Democrat, has openly declared that he and sew
eral of his associates who stood for good gov
eminent, protested against the unconstitutional
acts of Speaker Cook, making their protest to
the governor himself. They asked if they
would repeat their charges in the presence of
Mr.. Cook, and when they assured the governor
they would gladly do so, he said he would ar
range a meeting, which Mr.. Crawford and his
associates are still waiting for the governor to
call.
However, Mr.. Crawford was not the only
person who made formal protest to the gov
ernor over Cooks fragrant abuse of his author
ity during the session of the 1913 legislature,
and if memory plays no tricks there was at
least one instance where written charge against
Cook followed in the wake of verbal protest.
The people of Jennings county can stimulate the
governors memory if he has forgotten the Incl
them, as will be shown when the votes in that
county are counted week from next Tuesday.
These written charges filed with the
governor at his request, Mr.. Crawford asserts,
but up to the present time he has failed to make
them the basis of grand jury investigation.
The case in question concerns the bill that
was introduced to change the seat of Jennings
county government from Vernon to North Ver-
non. Speaker Cook was the ardent supporter of
this bill, just why no explanation has been made.
In it's passage through the house he repeated his
unconstitutional action the primary election
bill by refusing to permit amendments to it on
second reading, and it finally railroaded into
the senate. So hurried had been the progress of
not discovered until it reached the senate that
it contained provisions wholly unsatisfactory to
it's champions. But Cook is man who acts
promtly. He had the bill withdrawn from the
senate revised in the enrolling committee of the
house and then returned to the senate
In revising this measure Speaker Cook care
lessly overlooked the formality of having the
house act upon the revised bill before having it
sent back to the senate, where it was passed.
When the representatives of the citizens of
Vernon discovered this unheard of action on the
part of Mr.. Cook and his followers they naturally
entered vigorous protest with the governor.
1t is said that the governor asked this pro-
test be put in writing and presented to him. and
Vernon people say this request was promptly
complied with
