one States Senator. In <lb/>
1897 by a continuation of same <lb/>
alliance an anti Democratic <lb/>

disruption of the Populist par- <lb/>
began. Butler of the <lb/>
Populist opposed the re-election of <lb/>
Senator Pritchard alleging <lb/>
unfaithfulness to the free <lb/>
coinage of silver. Pritchard, how- <lb/>

populist Congressman for the First <lb/>

the Senate of the United States. <lb/>
Skinner since that time has had a <lb/>
voice if not absolute control of <lb/>
certain Federal patronage, in <lb/>
State and he has used it to <lb/>
utter rout of the Republicans of his <lb/>
district and serious division of <lb/>
his party. Butler represent- <lb/>
