The Pioneer Press of Saturday morning
substantially gives up the fight. Here is
Bill Kings screed:
There may be a possibility that this district
is to be disgraced by the election of this pest
ferrous little demagogue' as Greeley called
him. Advices received by the Pioneer Press
from all parts of the district, while they do not
justify this apprehension, agree in the general
representation that Mr.. Washburn is not going
to ride over the course with anything like the
easy and careless holiday triumph which his
friends seem to have anticipated. He is going
to be elected, but manifestly by nothing like
the large majority which was confidently count
ed on at the beginning of the campaign. 1t
would be a periious mistake to disguise the fact
that eyen this result is not absolutely certain with
out vigorous work on the part of all Republic
cans and Democrats who are alive to the full
import OF the calamity and disgrace which
would be implied in the election of such a
character as Donnelly to represent this district
in Congress.
It would be difficult to make more COM
plete surrender. "He is going to be elected
says the oracle, but seven this result is not
absolutely certain without vigorous work on
the part of all Republicans and Democrats %
etc. Bill King may possess his soul in pa
thence and cease all anxiety about the
"disgrace." This district IS ready to take all
the chances on the election of Mr.. Donnelly,
and when it has come to the point that his
defeat depends upon "Republicans and Dem
ocrats' uniting in behalf of the ring candi-
date, it can be set down that the eyes of

Not with any spirit of bravado, but as a
sober fact, we say to friends in the Second
and Third district, that the election of both
Poehler and Donnelly is assured. We do
not by this wish to create any fancied secur-
ity which will make any relaxation in the eff
forts to bring opt full vote, and to guard
the ballot-box. There is the best of reason
for stating that stupendous frauds are con-
templated in both districts. but notably
in the Third, and these must be guarded
against. We can assure the scoundrels
who engage in any such villainy that they
will suffer the consequences. AL of the
power which Congress of the United
States, controlled by Democrats, can exer-

solved that they will not submit to any fraud
which deprives them of their rights, and if
