Farmers Mass Meeting Fray and Political Spite Attack
An irate letter recounts a Saturday confrontation at a farmers mass meeting in Eldora where a nonpartisan speaker defends his stance against partisan manipulation. He condemns a “spider and fly” plot to divide spoils between parties, urges unity within his own party, and cites a district climate of cross-party fusing. A Newton Journal note adds a quip about a separate political aside and a Low Supreme Court remark on girls’ late-night conduct.
