Unfortunately, the history of American politics shows that this is the â€" kind of whispéring campaign that is always initiated by groups facing defeat in which spectacular and unsupported charges are circulated at the last minute in order to divert the attention of the voters from the fact that they are unwilling, or unable to answer (to take a stand) on specific issues. We wish to make plain the fact that until the time the Voters League submitted candidates for the g coming election, the caucus sponsored candidates left the citizens with no alternative but to vote for PERSONALITIES OF THE CANDIDATES ARE NOT INVOLYED: __ > * & ' No one disputes that all of the candidates enjoy a fine reputation.
