Patterson Club Seizes Control Of Coffee County Democratic Committee
In Manchester on June 1 the Patterson club called a meeting to reorganize Coffee county’s Democratic executive committee. The existing committee, elected in 1908 for two years, faced a rump body created by Patterson adherents. About forty or fifty men voted to appoint a new executive committee, aiming to replace the regular committee already in place. The regular twenty anti-Patterson members and twelve Patterson members were at odds, leaving the majority to oppose the new rump group and continue governing the county.
