There are several lessons to be learned
from yesterdays election in Moline. One
is that, Notwithstanding the b"asted indie.
pendence of the working men-shop en-
ployes, they dare not walk up to the polls
under the eyes OF their employers and
deposit other than the republican ballot
Men who have been the loudest takers
during the campaign, when the bosses
were not near. denOuncing the republican
party, it's policy and leaders, and making
the most positive assertions that under no
consideration would they ever support
them again; these very men were driven
up to the polls in squads by their employ
ers, given the republican straight ticket
and they meekly and uncomplainingIy
deposited it, some of the loudest-mouthed
ones even going go far as to peddle repub-
lican tickets
Another lesson which democrats should
study and it need not take them long to
learn It's that the republican blatherskites
with whom they associated them
selves under the Damo of
national greenback labor party and
who were the loudest takers and who
wanted to run the machine throughout the
campaign, deserted the standard at the
polls, voted the republican ticket and left
the deluded democratic wing of the party
TO fight the battle alone, thus dividing the
democratic strength; one portion fighting
mantully for their principles on the
straight democratic issue and the other
running republican side show labelled
| national"
All this TIE ARGUS saw and warned
| the people Of In time to have prevented
yesterdays result had its advice been ia
ken and acted upon That advice was not
listened to, but the protestations of oily
tongued republican tools, under direction
of their managers, believed instead. Now
you have the result. Are there any go
| blind as not to see it or too headstrong to
acknowledge it? Democrats should learn
this lesson and remember it. The reforms
you cannot secure within the democratic
party you will never get through repub-
republican side show, no mat
ter by what name it is called
1t is denied to-day by republicans that
there was any 'bull-dozing" or intimida-
ton yesterday; but every one who visited
the polls knows that nearly every manu-
| facturer was there with their pay-rolls,
and as the poor victims came up to vote
they were checked off, for what purpose
no one can positively tell, though it does
not require person of very keen percep-
| ton to arrive at a conclusion, and that
conclusion invariably is that if the em-
! DlOyer does not vote the republican ticket
he is marked and his place in the shop will
be filled by ano her as soon as possible.
Iu every instance they did not say it in SO
many words but the dependent employees
so understood it. One of the employers
one who did the most effective work for
the republican cause yesterday-said to an
ARGUS representative last evening, in re-
ply to the remark that he--the employer
could not tell whether his men voted as
he thought, that he knew exactly how
they voted because he asked them all to
let him see their tickets and watched to
see that they voted that ticket,
