Dear Editor:
Being the Democrat state commit
teeman from this county while
know | should not be SUCH" | don't
suppose | am out of the way in ex-
pressing my views on the coming SEN
atorial contest as l see it.
First, don't believe Senator Wheel
er would be hard to defeat if the Re
publicans would not vote the Demo
cratic ticket in the primary. But I'M
less there is plenty of competition on
the Republican ticket the most of
them will vote the Democratic ticket
and vote for Senator Wheeler.
The Republican nazi, and England
haters will vote for Wheeler.
I heard one of the leading Repub
licans in this section of the state just
after Wheeler was elected the last
time, he voted for Wheeler because
he felt he could do the administration
more harm than any other person that
could be sent to Washington.
Many Republicans feel as though
they owe Senator Wheeler vote for
the benefit he has done their party,
and I haven't seen where he has tried
to help any one else of late.
AS to the various candidates. l see
little use to exchange Senator Wheel
er for Mr.. Lamey from the viewpoint
Of big business, but Mr.. Lamey would
not be subject to the attacks of the
A.C.M. press and could get more in
their papers as to what he had to say
than the other candidates.
In regard to Justice Erickson | be-
lieve he would make Montana an ex-
who is not former war veteran and
would be more subject to all kinds of
lies than any of the other candidates,
and | doubt if any man can win with
the solid objection of all Montana pa
pers. Some may say Montana's Demo
cratic national committeeman owns
the Great Falls Tribune. Yes and he
knitted Leo Grabill and boosted Westie
DEwart for congress and I believe
he will, any one who runs indorsing
a MVA.
Of course being war veteran has
not prevented the gang who admit
they murdered the American soldier
to steal the peoples money from
a veteran as being Red.
And that is principally what defeated
Mr. Grabill. I have had people tell
me that highway patrolman whom our
governor was. goinga to take out of
politics were campaigning in Red
Lodge before, the special congression-
al election that Leo Grabill was a Red
And Governor Ford's liquor control
sent out statements that Leo Graybill
was a decidedly dry and would likely
work to make the nation dry, but their
friend Weslie D'Ewart would not mo-
lest the liquor business regardless of
how it went. Mice stuff for a nice
little dry governor ha?
l am a member of the American Lee
gion and have been most of the time
since it was formed, also member of |
the V. F. w. l as well as many more
wonder why the American Legion can
put out so much stuff about Hitlerism
dictatorism, etc. and |
can set around and never whimper
about certain officials of the A. C.
NJ. acknowledging they were murder
ing soldiers to steal the peoples mon |
