Republican Clubs Plan Campaign Harmony in Massachusetts
The League of Republican Clubs of Massachusetts met at the Republican State committee headquarters chaired by George A. Marden. About forty clubs attended and J. H. Flint was elected treasurer. The address says the league will assist regular committees, form new clubs where none exist, and divide work: city and town committees handle official party tasks while clubs raise funds, organize meetings, canvass voters, and mobilize volunteers to maximize the Republican vote. The league claims no assessments and aims to raise small sums as needed.
