A PERTINENT QUESTION
Which the Third Termer Did Not Care
'to Answer. ‘
A man attending a third term meet
ing at Denver asked the third termer
' the very pertinent question, “Would
‘not the Republican .party have
been all right if itl had nominoated
you?”
The third termer did not reply. He
simply looked angry and' went on dol
ing out political, econvmic and gocial
istic chop suey garnished with the
usual sauce of epithets, It was, we re
peat, a very pertinent question. The
Republican party and Republican prin
ciples were good enough for the third
termer until he found that the party
was not willing to give him a third
term. Then he broke loose, and be
gan gathering in every issue and ale
leged issue he could grab to make up
his cray quilt platform. He has
sought, with the savage rage of a
Malay running amuck, to destroy
everybody and everything obstructing
his mad onrush toward a goal he will
never reach. His ingratitude to the
party which honored him immeasurably
beyond his deserts will have fitting re
ward in the historic fate of those who
have sought to “rule or ruin.”
U. D. C. Meetmg.
The United Daughters of the
Confederacy will meet next Fri
day afternoon, Oct 18:h, at the
home of Mrs. L. W. Meakin. The
meeting convenes at 3 o’clock,
and a full attendance is urged.
