The factional- ists in the Republican party in this county. Some time ago the rumpers ramped and lost out so another meet­ ing was held last Saturday in Xenia and the rumpers ramped as if they enjoyed it. The regulars were not invited to the meeting, not even, the president nor seercetary. The rumpers wanted their own officers which they select­ ed with a few less than a quorum to do business. But. what do rumpers care about quorums? . A s3it was filed in the Court pf Appeals several waeks ago by rump leaders seeking control of the com­ mittee. Time drifted on when the regulars were compelled to answer And security of costs was demanded. The rumpers not being strong enough in the faith or weak on fi­ nances allowed the case to die. There is talk now of another suit if some open hearted citizen will shell out his coin. . s Then Marcus Shoup was in a hos- 5 pital in Baltimore, reported as a very 15 lick man. The rumpers have never = been credited with offering a prayer ,, s for his recovery. With Marcus opt s of toe way they had hopes of win- £ ning the suit in the Court of Appeals. ££ The unexpected happened, Marcus s was restored to health, that’s why s the rumpers did not invest money In 5 costs to carcv the case on. Marcus 15 was to defend the acts of the regu-1 — lars in court The rumpers would = rather set up, all night nursing Old [5 Satan than face Marcus in court. . 1“ "There’s a .Reason,” "as Mr., Post says. The reason is tha t most of the rumpers have not clean hands, a charge frequently laid a t the door of the regulars. Marcus knows it. and toe rumpers know he knows it. That’s, what makes the situation ticklish in court. The rumpers want control of the board of elections. Time is arriving for this appointment by the secretary of state who makes the appointment on the recommendation of the com­ mittee. The rumpers didn’t know it but the regular committee made such a recommendation several days before in the person of Horace Zell and it was forwarded to the secre­ tary of state. If the rumpers make a recommendation then comes the test of. regularity. This is settled by the ; state central committee.
