Political sohemine

Notwithstanding the Union Labor
party resolved in their late conven-
ton that they would run a straight
ticket this year, and would not fuse
with other parties, Editors Covlngton
and BOYD quietly got together a few
days ago and fused the Democratic
and Union Labor County tickets. OF
course they had no authority to do
such thing. Such action is a fla
grant disregard of the wishes of the
masses of both Democrats and Union
Laborites, but what do these political
Bosses care for the protests of the
rank and file of their respective par
ties? In other years they have arbi-
trarily, and without authority, traded
away candidates and they decided to
do it this year. The whipping in pro-
cess will now begin, and the fusion
lash viii be applied to the backs of
the Union LabOrites and Democrats
who are opposed to fusion. Post mas
ter Clark and other Democrats siren
nuously object to the job, and Clark
says the fusions of the past have in
jured the Democratic party and that
Covington has no authority to sell out
the party: On the Union Labor side,
the convention resolved by a good ma
jority that they would not cOallese in
the future, but Covington and Boyd,
acting as though they owned the
votes of the two parties body and
soul, have pulled down from the two
tickets the candidates they did not
want, and have made up a ticket to
suit themselves, and are now begin
ing the whipping in process. Talk
about political Trickery! Here is
most conspicuous manifestation
Of Bossism and trickery. It re-
mans to be seen how many Dem
Ocrats and Union Laborites will meek
| ly submit to this high handed usur-
patton of power.

The Inter Oceans Support can be
Secured for One Dollar.
Montgomery, Of the Long Island
Inter Ocean, refuses to support Lee
Scrivner, the Republican candidate
for sheriff, and he himself, last week,
stated his reasons in his paper for not
supporting him. Here they are quo
ted from the Inter Ocean:
1t might have been well for Mr.. ScriyeHer TO have
subscribed for this paper. But he didn't do it.
He came over here, talked to a few people and
asked us to support him. We are not under OBJ
lgatiOnsstO support ANY man fOr,ohice. If SERVE,
neF had contributed to the support of this paper
he might have expected support in return. We
are not running this paper FOR our health. Nor
for glory If ScriveHer expects this paper to help
boost him into a fat Office without at least re
eiPToca basis OF yearly subscription, he is woe
fully mistaken.
Well, according to Montgomery's
own admission, he sells the influence
Of his paper and his personal support
cheaper than we had supposed he
would The subscription price of the
Inter Ocean is $1OO, per year, and
if Scrivener had planked down SIOO.
Montgomery and the Inter Ocean
would have supported him We be-
Heve it was understood that it re-
CURED $1,000 to secure the Inter Oce-
ans great influence" but that was
a mistake, or else there has been
ruinous depreciation in the market
price Of the said papers 'fuence".
What a dreadful shrinkage there
was from the asking price! From So
Loo to $LOO is an awful tumble, bat
.ScriYener probably though the price
was too high at $1OO, and a great
many will agree with him.

The supporters of Pratt in this
county are uneasy, and well they may
be for their candidate is losing ground
every day. AS the people come to
understand the crookedness of Pra't's
henchmen in Cheyenne county and
at Atwood, and of the preposterOus-
ness Of his claim to be consisered the
Republican candidate for judge, they
do the sensible thing, and that
is to drop him and go to the support
Of Hon. S. D. Decker, the straight
Republican nominee.

Just think of the insincerity of Gov
ington and Boyd in shouting Ring"
''Rlng," at the Republicans, and then
getting together, and, contrary to in
struction of their County Conventions
pulling down candidates from the
Democratic and Union Labor tickets,
and putting into the field a fusion
ticket, which their party conventions
resolved should not be done. Was
there ever a more audacious, high
handed political trick? Was there ev-
er in this county such an exhibition
of cheek before? If two Republic an
editors would attempt such a thing,
the rank and file of the Republican
party would squelch them instanter.
and they would be justified in doing it.

The case against w. I. MCGEE was
dismissed, the court holding that the
act by which the Legislature require
ing a person taking a note for a pat
ent right to have Incorporated in that
note that the same was taken for a
patent, was unconstitutional. When
our Legislature wants any one to
make any new laws they should first
get Pratt's- consent O6erJj11 Opjl1-
ion.
1t will be remembered that this w.
T. MCGEE is the fellow who ''took IN"
Moses Eversol and other farmers of
this county, on the patent fence sche-
me. SO it seems that according to
L. K. Pratt's decision, MCGEE can go
on with his patent right show. Farm
ers should be careful. Pratt can tenn
porarily render void and imperative
the action of the Legislature of the
great state of Kansas.

r. E. Utter has published a card
Withdrawing from the Union Labor
ticket as candidate for Commissioner,
and he advises the Union Labor peo-
pie to vote for Mr. Hunter the Demo
cratic candidate. It now transpires
that there has been a little sharp
practice going on in which Mr..
Utter has conspieuously figured.
His name was proposed in the con-
vention and Democrats vouched for
his democracy and he posed as a
Democrat, and he is a Democrat,
but to get a nomination he went into
the Union Labor convention, and is
now for a purpose posing as a Union
Labor man, and he presumes to adj
wise Union Labor men how they
should vote. Some of these old Dem
ocrats are pretty long headed when
it comes to strategy. We doubt if
his tactics to rope in Union Labor
votes will be successful.

TO OLD SOLDIERS

In addition to the. fact that Hon.
S. D. Decker is the only regular
nominee of the only legally constitut-
ed and regularly held Republican
judicial convention, there is another
reason why the Republicans and old,
soldiers should and will rally to his
support on-the 5th day of November.
Mr.. Decker was an old soldier, enlist
ing when but fifteen years of age, and
served his country faithfully and well
until the close of the war, when he
was honorably discharged. He has
long been a member of the G.. A r.
belonging first to the JimsLane Post
OF Mankato, Jewel county, and after
moving to Decatur county joined the
T. E. q. Ransom Post at OberIin, of
which he is now an active member.
Merely being an old soldier does not,
however, IN our opinion, entitle him
to the old soldier vote, but this, with
his conceded ability, integrity, fair
A0So cLuNL 4OFS " JIt9G4CO O44O Will
another, together with his be-
ing the regular Republican nominee,
certainly entities him to the hearty
unanimous support of his brother
Republicans and brother soldiers.
All the more is this this the case for
the reason that a few renegades, for
personal interest and gains only,
are indeavoring to beat him out of
that that rightfully belongs to him.
Old soldiers especially should give
this matter their careful fconsidera-
ton and attention, and if possible
get to the bottom of the facts regard
ing the Judicial contest, and if they
do this we are confident that when
the 5th day of November rolls around
they will march to the polls in as
solid a front as ever they marched to
battle and cast their ballots for Sam
uel D. Decker, the soldier boy can
didate for judge of the 18th judicial
district. Her1dOn COlrant

The latest swindle worked on the
unsus p cting public is by
two quack doctors. They go to a
man and offer to cure him of what
ever happens to be the matter with
him on the no-cure-no-pay plan.
The man agrees and they produce a
book Of conditional notes which the
afflicted one reads very carefully to
be sure the conditions are all there.
The sharpers have him sign the note
in duplicate, one being kept by him
and one by them. The next the vic
tim hears of his speculation is when
a straight promissOry note with his
autograph attached is presented by
an innocent purchaser for payment.
The trick is in the fact that a prom
missOry note is sandwiched between
each two conditional notes in the tab
let The man reads the note he
signs first, but signs what he sup
poses to be the duplicate carelesslY.

Henry George, in the North Amer
lean Review for October: Are strikes
necessary? Under present condi-
lions in which the opportunity of en-
ployment is a privilege, in which
men talk and think of those who eur
nish work" as benefactors, they are
inevitable and must increase in mag
nitude and intensity. When wealth
is concentrating in great blocks,
when capital is combining in all di-
.rectiOns, the growing intelligence
and increasing aspirations of the Ia
boring masses Will not permit them
to be crowded to the wall without
struggling. Under these conditions
strikes cannot be prevented by laws
which destroy liberty and put aside
the rights of property.
