PLAIN TALK
FROM A REPUBLICAN,

Editor News;
read letter from Mr.. Doss in the
News OF last week showing great Re-
publicanism. don't think his view OF
it is Republican principles. They hold
for the fair thing all the time. Rogers
and his friends sent j. j. Dykes and
j. l.. Hudson to Jasper and Pittsburg
They saw great danger ahead for
Rogers and Coppinger, and so did the
chairman, 8 b. Raulston. So they
ignored the Republican law for "known
Republicans to vote in the primary, +"
and got every Democrat that would
stoop TO vote in order to get their men
in. look at it as STOPPING very low
for men to do that way to beat other
good men. hope as a lifelong Re-
publican to stay on Republican princi-
pies, and vote for the Repub blican nomi-
nees, jim Kelly, l. p. Brewer, and
VIII Alder, and not vote for those that
got the largest vote by the democratic
aid. The night of the primary at Whit
we'll Mr.. Meagher said, while in the bar

right where we want them. We can
elect our ticket in August" Mr.. Rog-
ers, you and the chairman have just let
the Democrats make cats paw out of

to think Pat Brewer, poor boy, had TO
be treated the way you fellows did to
beat him out of the race. Then say you
did not do it. You ought to be ashamed
to let people pull the wool over your
eyes that way. You are smart enough
to know that a house divided that way
cannot stand. The secretary did his
duty for the party and counted the re-
publican vote as the call was, and found
Kelly, Brewer, and Alder to have the
most Republican votes, and declared
them the nominees of the republican
party, which was right. | was not for
all of them, but am now their comrade.
These fellows know the democrats
laugh in their sleeves to get to vote in
a Repu hlican primary. They know that
will tear the party up and give them
chance to get their men in. There will
not any democrat vote for them in Aug
ust 1t is just their salad to got us tore
up. think it would be better to have
democrat officers than to have men in
that had rather tear the party up
rather than get beat in a primary.
They know they were not the choice of
the Republicans or they would have

other men. am an old man, so years
