Either' the Republican campaign managers must believe in mixed marriage mar-riage of tho whlto and black races, or else they must have been more than ordinarily disregardful of the facts when they had printed for campaign cam-paign uso a glaring cartoon on the Mexican situation, which made its appearance ap-pearance in Ogden a few days ago. Evidently the G. O. P. leaders prepared pre-pared this cartoon with the expectation expecta-tion that it would be a very .effect! vo piece of literature. But their artist made one bad break which caused the picture to be greeted with tho loud and merry ha! ha! when It was displayed In the windows of the Republican Re-publican headquarters on Twenty-fourth Twenty-fourth street. The cartoon represents a group of weeping women lamenting the loss of their sons, husbands and sweethearts sweet-hearts who were killed in Mexico, while a semi-human Democratic donkey don-key stands nearby with his hands in his pockets and Insists that there has been no war. Negro Troopc Were Killed. One of the women a pronounced blondo who is holding by the hand a flaxen-haired little girl, is represented repre-sented in the cartoon as saying: "My husband was killed at Carrizal." Carrizal, It will be remembered, is the place where seventeen negroes belonging to a colored United States cavalry troop were killed and a number num-ber of others captured, in an encounter en-counter with Mexican soldiers. But, of course, nobody expects the men in charge of the Republican campaign cam-paign to pay any attention to the facts What they are after is the votes of people who can't or won't think. |
