Indianapolis Democratic Organ Opposes “Dry" Results

Monticello Herald. The Indianapolis Herald, the democratic machine organ of this state contained an editorial write-up of Monticello last week, the main object of which seemed to be to discipline “dry” democrats. It held up Dr. gangster and Ore Eldridge as examples of “dry rascals,” and then took a poke at Editor Simons by charing him with drinking up his partner’s whisky—a story which in justice to Jim must be attributed wholly to the malice of the liquocratic machine. That such a man as Geo. M. Ray could find as cordial a reception in White county as his article indicates is not flattering to the democrats whose names are, dragged into his venomous sheet as friends of -the.. paper.
