Extracts From Editorials From The Hartford Times PARTISAN THEN— Against Lincoln - 1860-4 | | JUNE 10, 1864 ADMINISTRATION JOKES All through the present horrible war President Lin- coln has told anecdotes and perpetrated jokes, many of them unfit for a Sangamon County bar room. On Fri- day he reminded the party committec that came to him with the information that he was nominated again for the Presidency of an “anecdoote about a Dutch farmer.” It was the old one, in which the farmer was challenged to swap horses whilst he was crossing a stream. He ap- plied this anecdote to his own case. Lct the people look at it. Lincoln has been trying to cross the stream for near four years and has failed. He has destroyed a mil- lion of good riders, by directing them into the rapids, when there were well known fords near by. Is it not time to “swap him off” and take another, wiser, and safer, who can cross the stream, and stop the shocking sacrifices that Lincoln with his smutty jokes is making? Let the mockery be ended. September 2, 1864 Mr, Lincoln’s obscene “stories” too outrageously in- decent for a company of bar-room loafers, or any but the frequenters of the lowest dens of vice, have shocked and forever alienated many of his own friends; but there is one man who can “stand it.” He curiously enough, is a professed minister of the gospel. It¥s Par- son Gulliver, of Norwich, who has long since sunk the clerical character in that of the mere partizan—and a be- sotted, fanatical, abolition partizanship too. He publishes a three-column article to make folks believe that the filthy story-teller of the White House, who “jokes™” over his country’s ruin, and calls for the singing of a vulgar song amidst the fresh graves of.the battlefield. is just the man for enlightened Christian men to vote for. PARTISAN NOW! Against Brandegee - 1920 The Fariford Times. BRANDEGEE’S NOMINATION Renomination by the republican convention of United States Senator Frank Bosworth Brandegee, made by acclamation and without protest, is an affront to the state of Connecticut. It is a nomination which concedes nothing to progress and vision, and everything to reac- tion and selfish interest. Brandegee ought to be defeat- ed on November second and we believe he will be. Frank B. Brandegee represents nothing so little as he represents Connecticut sentiment, but 'the political machine has been for him. Unless the people repudiate him as a candidate, the state will be doomed to six years more of his misrepresentation. Connecticut is confront- ed with a task and an opportunity. N It is not enough to depllore the political record of Brandegee. Regret over his acts must be translated into votes, Brandegee’s stand upon the league of nations sickened thousands of Connecticut men and women. To forgive and forget merely for the sake of party regular- ity is to invite a repetition. Brandegee’s whole record proves he cannot be depended upon to represent Con- necticut's sentiment with fidelity on any question. He does not seem to regard public office as a public trust but as an opportunity to exploit the narrow and selfish views so typical of his whole political career. WHY BRANDEGEE SHOULD BE DEFEATED September 24, 1920. Frank B. Brandegee’s record in the United States senate for fifteen years makes him the big issue in this campaign, so far as Connecticut is concerned, By giving him a renomination by acclamation, without protest from anyone,.the republicans of Connecticut officially endorsed him and voiced its approval of his unprogressive record. The Times has referred to the renomination of Brandegee as an affront to the state. Having decided to jam Brandegee down the state’s throat for another six years, the machine is leaving no stone unturned to save his skin. BRANDEGEE AND KING CANUTE - October 2, 1920. The charge that Senator Brandegee has misrepresent- ed Connecticut in his votes and has stood against progress can be backed up by evidence. It is not a wild state- ment. Those who praise Brandegee most highly can sup- port their claim by nothing constructive in his record. He is a congenital objector; he is against substantially everything that is new or different, a typical conserva- tive. Brandegee is like old King Canute. He is constant- ly trying to sweep back the tide. Every progressive step finds him opposed and the tide sweeps over his head. UN'FAIR AND UN-AMERICAN METHODS DID NOT DEPRIVE THE UNION OF LINCOLN'S SERVICES IN 1860 AND 1864 NOR WILL SUCH METHODS AFFECT BRANDEGEE IN 1920 Due to the fact that the publication Reply of the “Hartford Times,” Refus- of this series of advertisements has REPUBLICAN STATE ing to Insert These Advertisements been refused by the “Hartford Times,” the Republican State Central Commit- tee, within a few days, will have ready for distribytion this series in booklet form, Copies may be obtained upon ap- ' plication in person or by mail. “They will not be printed here.
