1t was promised by Mr.. Oner and the
Cresset crowd to Republicans who enquir-
cd about the matter, that there would be
vindication OF that statesman against the
charges In the INDEX last week. No expla-
nation appeared this week. We therefore
reiterate our former statement that as
member Of the legislature he endeavored to
defeat bill which had for its object the
regulation of railroad freights and fares
and sought to prevent determinations. He
even went so far as to laud railroad on
the floor of the house, referring to the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe as the most
liberal corporation in the United States.
We charged that Mr.. Orner was not the
author of the Revenue bill which taxes
cattle driven in for grazing purposes,
though he has claimed credit for the meas
ure. Not word was published on the sub
ject in the Cresset yesterday.
The people are earnestly opposing mon
opolies. Will they return man to the
general assembly who has fought their in
terests; who has used his position for his
own personal gain; who has accepted and
distributed passes over railroads; who has
declared himself prohibitionist and at the
same time has encouraged violations of
the prohibition law; who has been incon-
sistent at all times and under all circum-
stances?

Cockrell surrendered to the os-cials that

before us, as we have Mr.. Orner's. but the
writer asserts, without fear Of contnldic-

always to be found on the side Of the people
as against corporations and monopolies.
He was the youngest member Of that legis-
