he is known in i'll parts Of the county,
and admired for his csndor and conceded

Page Tricky,

It:is notable fact that the opposition
have no active candidate in the field for
Rtste Senator. There is . significance in
this fact viii ich many may not unde, stand,
hence We will let little light shine
through it. The convention was made up
slmoet exclusively Of democrats. and pur-
,p',sely 80. too. An effort was made to
have the bolter, Williams 1a!ken up by
them. That failing. Judge Atlcp, whom
the leaders knew would not accept : PLACE
on the ticket, was nominated, and he de-
clining.cC. E. Carter, republican was
substituted with the full knowledge on n: III:
part of The managers that he would decline
10 be used. but the convention adjourned
before Mr.. Carter could be hard from. In
due time he refused L, be sacrificed. The
next step Was the announcement by w.
II. Merrick, chairman of the committee
that pr. O.. w. Gihs"q. had been selected
- 'he democratic candidate. Its p"taEi'
Gus that Gibson does not des'Ee to run,
and that he will not run, although 1t is the
purpose Of the boilers to keep his name
before the people until election day when
they may come out with Williams ~ The
sole candidate Of the opposition. This
scheme was planned in the beginning, by
Page the other boilers and ". H. Ae17ick,
= democrat who has alvsYl worked with
them. Merrick is we'll aware that the de.
mocracy Can make no Roadway with u
separate TICKET. hence no works with Page
10 he has always done. 1t il part of the
plan Of the boilers to trade,-giving all
their votes for Converse. for Treasurer,
and getting villa. they may be able for the
''honest" y Elk County Auditor. We pre-
sent the facts in the case 50 that oil may
know them aud thus escape the trap that
has been set. The plan is to force
Williams upon the opposition at the polls
although they refused to touch him ~ tue
copyeuion. We don't believe that trick
will win the game.

The D0ltcrs.

When the Page faction began the cam
paign it was with y definite understand.
ing that in case they should fail to get
c,utrol Of the Convention they would
bolt its nominees; Mcigs hes said 90 and
he is the business manager"
Stevens went into the Con veptiop With
\ determination to control it II possible,
aud if not then to hrenk it PIP if he could.
His action there was .most ridiculous and
d'sgraceful, but it Was in accordance with
u pre.arranged PLAY, and the Editor % &C.
cepted the chaqlpionsship # ,te "satns seous
scheme. He knows and so do all his pals
know that there was but single delegate
in that convention who had not for more
than one year affiliated most heartily with
the Republican party. Mr.. Houscman, of
tcd Rock, We understand, last year acted
with the democrats. but he avowed his
rcpublicanism, was elected delegate by
republicans and is > republican, but he is
not a Page republican and that Is all
that ails Stevens, Meigs & Go. They dis
LIKE J.P: Williams as ;wucb ~ others do.
They have sncerqd at apd !deriaed him
indeed they tried three years ago at LIE
Roy to defeat him, and for that purpose
made up attcmptto cQnsummate their de-
sign, but tnci: treacbery was discovered
and their plan went aglee. They do not
advocate Williams because they want him
nor because they think him fit, but for the
reason that they wish TO dcfea, Smith, and
Williams feels honor ed in being used as
their tool. They have talked about "clean
republicanism,' and principles, and hon
est men, and ney they ii&gpQre aq these
and band 'be1mselves together as wolves
do. for plumber, nothing else. They care
nothing for principles, nothing for party,
nothing tor men, they care only for them
selves and to have their own way At
whatever sacrifice of honor or truth. That's
how it 10 with them,
