MT. EullOTs-
/ notice in several issues of your
paper a strong tendency to criticise
the Progressives for the manner in
which they presented their ticket for
the consideration of Democrats at the
Primary to be held on September the
Sth. II you will look back in the files
of your paper you will find that these
Progressive candidates were selected
exactly as all other Progressive can
didates have been selected in the last
eight years. and If you are still fur
Their disposed to find fault with the
manner OF selection you should bear
in mind that there are a few Demo-
Gratis yet who believe the Office should
seek the man. Thus at the request of
some near-neighbors Mr.. John H Gels
had actually filled in his application to
run as a candidate for Delegate to the
State Convention and only yielded TO
the persuasion of Democrats from all
over the county to become a candidate
Tor the Senate.
You will find upon examination
that each group of candidates were
selected In the same old way.
In years now passed the leader of
the Organization, now dead, no doubt
after hearing from his friends and
followers selected the Organization
candidates of the party to be voted for
ut the Democratic Primary, and what
ever the fault of his system the can
didates were fairly distributed over
the county. The present leader of the
