Convention Urged for Fair County Ticket Fall
The piece argues for liberal representation on the county ticket, stating the public seeks justice not jealousy toward Mitchell. It warns the Republicans to avoid nominating Mitchell loyalists and notes party ties are weak, with many Republicans prepared to back the “people’s” nomination. The convention on October 6 is pivotal.
