NfISRT J ENDORSE
Fence Club of Floyd Floors
The Reformers
THE RESOLUTIONS FRIED
A Warm Meeting Well Adver
tised but Failed ’Em.
After a week of steady advertis
ing by the “reform” organ and
others, the Floyd County Fence
Club held a meeting at. the court
house yesterday afternoon.
There was only a small crowd
present at the appointed hour but
as time slipped by men gathered.
As 'hey arrived an active effect
was made to enroll them as club
members and many of them
joined.
Finally after considerable delay
Mr. Lum Duke of Flatwoods was
called to the chair and the club
meeting was opened for business
Mr,Amos Buffington stated that
the meeting bad been called to
endorse the “new ticket” and read
the names of Candidates from Mr.
V. T. Sanford for Tax Collector
down to Mayor R T Fouche for
Senator.
Mr. Buff ngton was armed with
the resolutions aud offered them
in a most forceful and eloquent
manner.
Mr. Bob Dougherty, a popular
Fence Club man, took up the sen
atorial end of the ticket fiirst. and
after a few eloquent remarks
about the Fence Club remaining
non partizan, insisted that, before
the resolutions were passed that
the club send for Candidates W.
H. Ennis and R. T. Fouche, and
and hear them speak on the
subject
This proposition was so fair it
staggered the partizan element
that was seeking to use the club as
a tool co acci.n.ilish certain
selfish ends
About this time Mr. Henry
Walker, the only candidate en
dorsed Uy the Feiics Club for
membership in the legis'ature,
eute.ed the Hail.
Mr. Walker at onSe took the
floor and soon convinced the
Fence Club members that they
were being used for purely par
tisan purposes.
When Mr. Walker took his
seat Mr. Joe Harris, of Flat
woops, moved to table the reso
lutions, and by a vote of 19 to
12 the resolutions were laid on
the table.
A motion to adjourn was
promptly put and unanimously
carried.
In view of the fact that the
reformers have been nursing this
meeting of the Fence Club very
solicitiously for many days, and
after the club met it so complete
ly rebuKed the reformer’s efforts
to drag it into partisan politics,
why the final action of the club
was a severe slap-in-the-face for
the office seeking' “reformers.”
Unlike the meeting of the oath
bound, secret political organiza
tion, known as the “Young
Men’s Democratic Club,” the
Fence Club's meeting was open
to all comers. It is a coincident
worthy of note, however, that
while the Fence Club turned
down the reformers by a vote of
19 to 12, the secret political or
ganization endorsed the reform
ers, in star chamber meeting by
a vote of 19 to 12.
