Mr.. William A. Kicker,
Chairman Of Town Republican
Committee.
Dear Mr.. Kicker:
| regret that circumstances did not
permit me to accept your invitation
to attend your organization meetings.
A member Of the Estate Republican
Committee, during my campaign as
Candidate for County Senator,
attacked me 20 violently on the
ground Of my extraction that it left
my friends with no other alternative
but TO stay home.
| remember the time when they
were greatly desired by him.
The position of a member of the
state Republican Committee" is one
Of serious responsibility toward the
party, it demands Judgment, diplo-
macy, broadmindodness honesty,
tact, polteness, consideration, fair
play.
When Republican member of the
State Committee stoO"s to mock and
rdicule so many of his fellow cit
liens of French extraction, he should
be rebuked in the only effective way
possible.
The natural result of such an at
titude on his part, is the wholesale
loss of votes for the party.

prominent Republicans do not APP
prove of such methods, and the day
may come when relief will be in
sight
| will vote for Mr.. Harding for
President and for Mr.. Hartness for
Governor because | believe in them.
| respect the Republican candidate
for Town representative, but in my
humble opinion Charles Whitney rep
resents the class of citizens that I
stood for in my campaign, that Of
the plain people, consequently my
sympathies are with Mr.. Whitney,
and | viii cast ballot for him.
Respectfully,
J. D. BACHAND.
