Editor Gazette A corres
pondent of your parer who signs
himself "Vernon" comes mighty
near the mark iu explaining why
the more important and lucrative
county offices are almost invaria
bly held by democrats although
the county is a republican coun
ty. If is true that democratic
bosses have, by some means or
other so influenced the action of
republican conventions . in the
matter of nominations that our
conventions have inured to demo
cratic benefit quite as much as
their own conventions have.
Thesei ''bosses" have foisted weak
men, selfish men men desiring
and seeking only their own sue
cess upon our delegates in repeat
ed instances. They have , done
all possible' to create faction in
republican lanks. They have
given out that this man or
that one is the strongest possble
man to place in nomination for
he "has hosts of democratic
friends who will support hitn
It is not at all incredible, and
believed by many, that we have
had a state senator nominated and
triumphantly elected by demo
cratic support which has been re
ciprocated by helping to piace
democrats in the more desiraole
county offices. It is only upon
such hypothesis we may exp'ain
the political success which has
attended some men of very srnal
caliber. Again the enemy
practicing these tactic?. Already
are certain democratic leaders pat
ting would-be republican nom
inees on the back and giving out
that they would draw strong dem
ocratic support at the polls.
is quite certain that these, self
seeking candidates cannot be nom
inated without democratic influ
ence, and equally certain that
nominated they cannot be elected
without democratic votes. If the
delegates to the county conven
tion will closely scrutinize every
man seeking nomination ana
make sure that he is a clean
strait-out republican who has no
Iiope of democratic support, and
who will be loyal to the whole
ticket, the republican voters will
do the rest. -
"Vernou" is also right con
cerning the nomination and re
election oi liinger Hermann to
congress. To laii in this would
be a distinct loss not oniy to this
congressional district but to the
entire state.
We hope the nominating con
vention will take the rational and
business -view of this matter
and place him in nominaion.
There's no fear thdt he'd fail of
election. If several conventions
shall act wisely Benton county
.will not only be fonnd in the re
publican column but will place a
republican in every county office.
