strong resolution was also adopted at
the meeting condemning both Elder

course in ignoring the recommends
tons of county organizations in the
disposition of federal patronage in the

ularly emphatic and highly reflective
of tie sentiment of the rank and file
of the Democratic party in Canyon
county as to the autocratic rule of the
Nugent- Elder Pence faction OF the
