The Enterprise OF this morning, edi-
torially discussing the probable repu-
diation Of J. P. Jones by the Republi
can party "a candidate for United
States Senator. In n At Of desperate
evaporation over such an ito itl I'M

will ramely submit 10 such an injuS-
tice. and support the men who have

avenge his defeat.
In the first paragraph, It intiniates
that It will not submit to such repudi-

chief organ grinder-wrote that. 1t
