How long it will remain Ins way no being can tell. no longer than the bosses wish. We Venture the assertion that not a Republican or Populist in the Stale now what ticket he will be call- ed upon to vote. The People in these parties arc purely at the mercy of the bosses. If this is not a spectacle for pie in a country where they nominate their own officers in lo be then we are mistaken. Let us this ticket n little First two respect- for the offices of Governor, tenant-Governor, and Auditor. is simply u sham. Nobody believes that there will be more than one candidate for each of these offices the day of election. It is only kept as it now stands to deceive the people. The Re- publicans were afraid to t Russell fear their followers would not support Guthrie. The Populists knew that the rank and file of their party would r vote tor Russell so dared not lake Guthrie down. The evidently is to run both men until the time is near that there will be no time for kicking, and then send out tickets with only one name on for each office. So with all the other offices for which tire two dates. Will the people be fooled this way It remains to be seen, with the prospects in favor that it will be done. Now as to the ticket where both parties have the same candidate. Worth for Treasurer, Thompson for Secretary State tor Superintendent of Public and Montgomery tor Associate of the Supreme Court; all are advocating tree silver and Bryan for Walser for At- for t Justice, and four of the Congressmen, including White, are open and avowed Gold beg and favor for President.

March was this proposition on the silver met by the Re- publicans. a fatuous, selfish, cold- blooded and brutal proposition to overwhelm a political enemy by nu- strength, and coolly divide plunder among a men. There was not the shadow of a suggestion as to an issue on which both parties con Id favorably unite. There no evidence that a moments thought was to the interests of the people on w host- votes capture and distribution spoils depends. A flat of their proposition can be nothing less are in this thing for the stuff, and we have no further interest in the than to use them to that end From every of common decency and equitable. the first thought of a ma-, or party that is honored with confidence and of the people should be the interests of the people.
