Show CONFIDLNGE IN POLITICS- Politicians ful of "confidence" that their side will win turn up every da3r and are duly put on record by the local press; but the man who can produce the evidence to satisfy an unprejudiced individual in-dividual that he has any substantial foundation upon which to base his "confidence" has not been to town for a long time. The "confidence" so plentiful is just as much a part of the regular stock in trade of a political campaign as the brass bands and tin torches are, and it means just as much. Whoever saw a politician who was not full of "confidence" that his side would win until the counting of the votes shows him that it is the other side which had the most votes? |
