BEDFORD WEEKLY MAIL BEDFORD, INDIANA FRIDAY, NOV. 9, 1900 THE SCRATCHERS. Who said that voters did not know how to scratch? The scratcher was abroad in Lawrence county Tuesday. Republicans were diligent all day in getting even. Old scores were wiped out and so were majorities. The results are painfully apparent in a mixed ticket and reduced majorities. We regret the wandering of the erstwhile faithful. But it has been done. The MAIL does not believe in saying things of those Republicans who voted the Democratic ticket yesterday. Rather we think the proper thing is to try to get together for the future. There is a real Republican majority in this county of ten or twelve hundred. It should be cast for every man on the ticket. It will be in the future. The wanderers will soon be ashamed of their work. Let's ask them back, nominate a ticket satisfactory to all, and let Democratic candidates for county office in the future carry an empty dinner pail. Get together. **** TRUSTEES. Flinn, JACKSON, Democratic, 97 majority. Pleasant Run, HENDRICKS, Democrat. Perry, JACKSON, Republican, 2 majority. Indian Creek, KERN, Democratic, 14 majority. Spice Valley, SPENCER, Republican, no opposition. Marion, McAFEE, Democratic, 19 majority. Bono, SMITH, Democratic, 21 majority. Shawswick, RAY, Republican, no opposition. Marshall, McFADDEN, Democratic, 38 majority. Guthrie, DODDS, Democrat. ************ Democrats elected township trustees in Indian Creek, Marion, Bono, Guthrie, Flinn, Pleasant Run and Marshall. The Republican elected in Shawswick, Perry, and Spice Valley. This will set all the Democratic teachers on a chance for County Superintendent. ******************* MIERS AND WADSWORTH.
