Pledged to Little Fellows"
Another Distinguishing feature of
Congressman Moore's campaign, and it
IS strikingly new one, is that he
has pledged himself to stand by the
"little fellows" the division leaders,
who, after all, are the men who give
the ward leaders all the power they
possess. And it is q statement that
applies equally to all workers. Para
phrasing a Biblical phrase, CAS- the
precinct worker deals so shall he be
dealt with
| know there is disposition to
doubt there is here and there a sneer-
ing cynicism about pre- election pledges
that has been created as a result of
broken faith. shattered promises and
political confidence games in the past,
But candidates word is the only
basis upon which n voter can accept
him.
An independent who voted for Mr..
Moore at the primaries and who neg
lects TO vote for him at the regular
election. either through indifference or
through the mistaken and assinine idea
thnt he fulfilled his duty at the pri-
maries, is as false to the ticket which
he helrcd to nominate as a candidate
on the ticket who would deliberately
knife a fellow candidate whom he dis
liked.
The big leaders among the regular
Repuhlicans have declared in for
Congressman Moore. They are sports
men. They are willing to take his
word. It is the small caliber. smooth
bore. narrow visioned worker who
would take the other course. A broad
guage man admires the spirit of fac
tionalist who, even while cursing the
luck that went against him, can, never
theless, stand four square and declare
that, Notwithstanding he will, support
the ticket.
There are irreconcilables on both
sides. They are found in both factions.
One will look for them in vain along
the avenue of harmony. The most cas- :
ual search will reveal them hiding in
the tall grass yelling curses at the trav
elers. There are partisans so bitter
NJ they cannot appreciate that J.
Hampton Moore is the standard bearer
of the whole party. To them he is the
candidate of a faction and as such must
remain so to the end.
The paramount duty of every citizen
who is interested in seeing the new
charter have a fair trial. who is inter
ested in a greater Phladelrt:- and
who believes in common honesty among
men. oven though the Nn interested in
nolitics, will. as popular and distin
guished Philadelpbian expressed it,
"drop the hammer and grab horn"
Above all they will not forget that
Tuesday is election day.

GRAND JURIES

grand juries at work within few
