Show H WHAT ARC THEY OOINO? H The Republicans arc moving in H matters political in our county and H city, but what has become of the B Democrats? Is it possible that they H have lost heart, and feel that there B" fs no hope for them in the political B arena in Iron county this fall? We B- hope not. It would not be in the H best interest of good government H that there should be but one polkt- H cal party in either the nation, the H state, or the county, in the present B state of fallen humanity. B Political parties are necessary to B the welfare of society, and it would H. be a1 mistake to entr.ust the manage. f ment of politics to one party only, no matter what its complexion may H be, or how fair it promises. H Public affairs are not" above re- H proach, generally speaking, with H . three, or four parties bidding for the H job of administering them, but if H there was only one bidder, and the H commonwealth had to take him on H his own terms with no one to turn B the job over to if he failed to live H up to his agreement, it is evident H that matters would soon be a great B t deal worse; and although in our B I county wc are bles;ed with a good B r administration on the part of all of Lf our officials, they are but human, H"t and it is well that tnc party which i H ,''' they represent should be kept in ; H , line by a proper amount of compf.-. tition. It does not augur well for HMs good, "'Mfiitf''" hn ( ' CP' Wl BBBBJ -..iv pjooou np a ... opeiuor H "'' that it uould put a yellow dog in B office if it chose;" hence in the in- B tcrest of good government and pure H politics in Iron county, we should like H to sec the democrats as well as the H republicans put their best men in H fl the field at the coming election, g " Where .there is plenty of good men H to chose from the people can the Hf" ' better secure the best men for their H , alleged servants, but real masters. sssH -- |
