Judge Gerald, a life long lemo-

he said he would follow modern
democracy no longer. Now let

robbed of millions of dollars
by these conscienceless leaders of
the G. O. P. while occupying
state, county and 'Municipal posi-
tions. With millions of bribe
money these gangs go to the
various conventions and unblush-
ingly traffic the people's rights
away.
As evidence of the truth of the
above statements what better evi
dence does an honest man want
than to see thirty one thousand
millionaires in this country, and
millions of paupers? Who be-
lieves that a man can start with
nothing and honestly accumulate
a million or a hundred nfillion of
dollars? Such a thing is impossi-
ble and repulsive alike to Chris-
tianity and good morals.
This article was inspired th-
reading the proceedings of the
late republican state convention
at Austin. This convention was
simply composed of a hvbrid set
of boodlers. Even the chairman,
John Grant, of Sherman, in the
very beginning of the campaign
sent out a circular letter to vari-
ous republicans in the state sug-
gesting that the state delegation
should be sold at St. Louis to the
highest bidder. One of these
letters was shown to the writer
by a local republican, therefore j
we know whereof we speak. This (|.IV
