Tribune Please Copy.

We have it from reliable" authority
that certain party Is travelling over
the county offering 81 per vote in the
interests of one of the democratic cam
didates. 1t is q pleasure to know that
the republican candidates are not try
ing to secure votes that way. They are
making the canvass on their merits,
and merit always wjns.-Register.
Had the above appeared in any other
paper than the Register, it might have
been considered as matter to be ser
iously thought of, but as it appeared in
that, it shows in itself the untruthful-
ness of the statement. Like the letter
of "a German Farmer" and many other
lies which have appeared in the Register
it is, we presume, fabricated by the
same man that wrote the others. All
persons knowing the gentlemen on the
democratic ticket, know that not one
of them will resort to the means which
have been stated above. But one thing
we have from good authority and that
is that the republican candidate for
sheriff made the utterance that he
would get the votes Of the Dutch Of
Cheyenne with beer. Why can not a
campaign be conducted in manner
which is honorable to both partiesS
Can not q canvass be made without re-
sorting to such infamous lies as the
Register sees fit to use?-Ellinwood
Advocate.
