Jasper County Democrat, Volume 14, Number 93, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 2 March 1912 — RALSTON LOGICAL CANDIDATE. [ARTICLE]
RALSTON LOGICAL CANDIDATE.
In a recent interview, Mr. Abe Simmons, the well : known Bluffton lawyer moils, the well-known Bluffton lawyer and a delegate at large to the Denver convention in 1908, said: 6. “Samuel M. Ralston is the logical candidate for Governor on the Democratic ticket for 1912. In my opinion, the party would make a great political mistake if it should fail to place the Democratic banner in his hands during the coming campaign. He is an able, eloquent and cultivated gentleman, and if elected Governor of Indiana, will be the Governor of the whole people, and his only aim and ambition while in office will be to discharge his whole duty as prescribed by the Constitution and laws' of the state under the sanction of his oath. “He is competent, and capable to grace the chair once occupied by the sainted Hendricks, and as Governor of the great state, he will be an honor to the commonwealth. “I am for the nomination of Samuel M. Ralston, ‘first, last and all the time’."
