ganization. | say to you that if you permitted an independent tO defeat this nominee, il would be taken abroad there was something very wrong with either the organization here or that there were no democrats in the saddle worthy of support" He said if the city ever expected to make progress it would hay etc expect help along political lines, and the way to get that help was to stand to- gether
 Chairman Little saw Mir. Eisee in the audience and called on him. Mr. Eisee responded and stated that he had ever been interested in the growth and development of Hot Springs, and had ever been willing to give his influence to helping the resort along If there were political lines closely drawn, he said. he would be with his party but there were no political lines The democrats had nominated a good man, and there was an independent running against him. He said that he believed the great majority of the republican citizenship of Hot Springs would cast it's vote for Harry A. Jones. the man, for mayor, as the republicans had nothing to look to in such race but the secur- ing of the best men for public ifhce. He thought the defeat of man like Harry A. Jones would speak for the political decay of the democratic party. "l heartily support Harry A. Jones because of his sterling worth" said Mr. l1isele, and will add that l had rather vote for Harry A. Jones than a bad republican,"
 George R, Bedding was called on and said there were but two great parties, the democratic and the repub- liCan, and that an independent had no claim on the support of the voters. He regarded an independent as an egotist who, not satisfied with the principles enunciated by the parties, set up a platform for himself. as being bigger than party organization He said there was no better citizen in Arkansas than Harry A Jones, d man of splendid ability, of address, or pleasing manner, and one who would reflect credit on such a cosmopolitan resort as Hot Springs. T expect tais ticket to receive the largest majority ever given democratic ticket in this city said MT Bedding, and ] expect to work day and night to contribute my part in making this prediction come true"
