WOULD HAVE BOSS RULE REBUKED
Contributor Think.* Boss Rule
Caused Senatorial Squabble
and Says Rebuke it
To The Newark Journal:*
The present senatorial race in
this district to be decided by the
people next Monday, forces a fair
minded man to deliberate, serious-1
ly and intelligently. Bossism has
never been in worse order than in
! the present state of things. On
I March 28 last, we had a primary j
election, the result of which is gen-1
orally known, and if there was any I
doubt about the result of that pri- •
mary on senator, it was between ,
Edmondson and Raney, and as I
Raney has withdrawn from the
race, there is now no doubt as to j
our duty. Are we going to do it* j
Bosses are stupid creatures.
The only thing they understand is
the working power of money.
They are helpless in the presence
of an aroused public opinion that
cannot be bought. Stand by your
guns and vote the ticket as select
ed by the primary, and returned
by the judges and clerks in each
township acting under oath, and
thereby rebuke bossism. And if
you don’t do this, then you deserve
to be ruled by bossism for all time
to come. And there need to be
no more primary elections, but
just refer all nominations in the
future to the few self-constituted
bosses and when they have named
the ticket, then take your medi- I
cine straight and don’t whine!
about it. But I have an abiding
faith in the Democracy of old In
dependence county, that she will
show her courage and manhood
on next Monday in such a way as
not to be misunderstood by the
bosses in the future.
Have we the right to select our
own candidates by our votes in the
primary election* Must we sup
port a man for senator in defiance
and over the protest of the party's 1
duly organized authority — the I
senatorial convention and county
central committee—simply because
a few bosses, the personal friends
of that man, succeeded in getting
his name printed on the official
ballot as “Democratic Nominee?” j
These questions will be answer
ed by the result of the election
next Monday. Fair minded Dem-1
ocrats, stand up for manhood and
down bossism. It’s up to you.
Stand-By
Batesville, Ark. August 29.
