A LTHOUGH the Republicans in
4 n that part of Marion county
within the new Eleventh district are
contemplating grabbing either the
district Craftsmanship or the nom
nation for congress, Democratic
leaders here are counselling their
party to stage no such contest.
Smart politics, they say, consists
in permitting DR.. w. H. Larrabee
Of Hancock county to be renomin-
ated without any opposition and in
allowing Madison county Demo-
crat to be the district chairman.
In return for this, Marion county
leaders will ask that the other two
county organizations pledge them
selves to vote with them in the
state convention.
Here's why Marion county leaders
believe this course smart politics:
Marion county had 205 delegates
to the 1880 convention, Madison
thirty-five, and Hancock ten.
Appreciate increases will be ac-
corded all three counties in 1892 be-
cause of the large Democratic vote
for secretary Of state last year.
In such event Marion county,
with the pledges Of the two others,
will be in a position to control the
1882 convention, say Democratic
strategists.
1t would be no difficult matter
for the party leaders here, If rea-
son and sound judgment are exer-
cised, to name both the nominee for
Governor and for United States
senator, they contend.
To those Marion county commit
teemen residing in the Eleventh dis
trict, the strategists say:
What good in the material form
Of patronage can a district chair
man or congressman do you here?
"Our bet is to nominate and elect
a Governor who in gratitude will
clear the way for us to get to the
job trough"
This logic is having coercive
effect, especially because the num-
Der Of jobless Democrats has in
creased greatly as a result of the
economic depression.
If Marion county can succeed in
convincing the Jeffersonians of
Hancock and Madison counties that
their fortunes are bound up with
the former, and if a congressman
and a district chairman are Suf-
ficient to appease their desires, then
the Democratic state leaders need
watch out for Marion county-for
it will be in the drivers seat in the
1882 convention.
