ENDORSED.

The democratic central committee
which met Saturday last, unanimously
endorsed Jery Simpson for congress,
and placeNhis name on the ticket as
the choice Of the democracy. This
move was the result of crysta!ized
sentiment hostile to the ''prince.
Jerry Simpson, the farmer, is more ac,
ceptable to any democrat than jim
HallowelI, the politician-a man with.
out principal, without honor, making
his canvass without convictions, but
having a sublime faith in the credulity
Of the people.
Jerry Simpson is in harmony with
the great issues advocated by the DEM
ocracy, and there is not democrat in
Ford county who cannot consistently
support him. There are some issues
upon which there may be divergence,
but none that are so at variance with
democracy as those advocated by the
republican party. Up with Jerry,
down with Jim.

OF course, reader, you are, as the
Globe intimates and implies, such a
dolt and so wanting in sense that you
accept the statemen; that j. l.. Finley
who has never paid dollar-not one
in taxes In Ford County, is more in
terested here than G. NJ. Hoover, who
pays taxes on $500 acres Of land. CT
course, you can see that man who has
never paid a nickle in taxes is more in
terested in low taxes than one who
pays thousands Of dollars. OF course
you can see that man who was pre-
pairing to leave the county just before
a nomination was rendered him is more
interested here than one who has ev-
cry dollar invested here. Of course
you see these things. or any rate, the
Globe insults your intelligence by at
tempting to make you think so.

THE NEW EDITORS.

As We announced some time ago,
the Globes editorial columns have beer
turned over to the republican candi
dates. These gentlemen are industri
ously eevoting themselves to praisine
their own virtues, and without blush.
Propriety, modesty-in fact every feel.
ing that would restrain a man from pa
rading whatever is good within him, is
laid aside and the brazen bid for votes
goes on in each weeks issue. What,
voters, do you think Of a man when you
hear him shouting to an Indifferent
hearer his own praises? Don't you
feel small for him? Doesn't it occur
to you that it would require a magni-
flying glass to find any real good in him
and doesn't his cheek and gall over
shadow every other characteristic? Z?
these new editors, who have pulled of
their coates, rolled up their sleeves,
while the sweat is running from their
noble brows in the desperate effort at
self-praise, present sorry spectacle
for the consideration Of Independent,
thinking, sslf-respecting voters.
This is not the only account scored
against them
They have lodged, evaded, slid
around, ducked under, and jumped ov-
er every point that has been brought to
4 direct issue. When the Times has
met their questions and refuted their

mersault and landed on an altogether
different subject, and started the ques-
tions in another direction. On several
the Times has cornered them
and then they evaded the point by
willfully distorting the truth. They
have kept silent on questions asked
them for the reason that an answer
would require an untruth manufactur-
from the whole cloth.
The republican candidates are afraid
to stand up in fair fight. They bob
up long enough to ask question, and
then dodge down for fear the answor
will hit them. It takes long pole to
prod them into public view, and then .
log chain cannot hold them long
enough for an answer to question.

LET US JOIN HANDS.

There is friendly feeling between
the alliance auddemocratic parties in
the state of Kansas, even where each
has put ticket in the field. The
friendliness is born Of wrongs at the
hands OF mutual enemy. The re-
publican party in this st.te is as sure
ly the cause of the bjlth of the alli-
ance movement, o. is assured the fact
that the earth revolves on its AXIS. The
hurtful policy that has brought un-
numbered burdens into the Kansas
farm ers' lives can be traced and placed
Upon the shoulders of the republican
party. It has absolutely controlled
Legislation. and whatever has been its
record, whether for good::or evil, there
can be no Sinking of the responsibility
Men do not break away from party to
which they claim fathership, nor from
the party which they have been taught
from infancy to revere, without
strong motive. Republicans have jeer-
ed and derided the farmers alliance
movement, have attempted to belittle
its candidates. yet, nevertheless, this
ridicule was but a veneer to cover up
the fright that is consuming them. They
are frightened at the prospect of a fu-
sion of the democrats and alliance, and
the mere mention Of coslation pro-
duces ague in the republican candi.
dates.
Their fears are we'll grounded, and
furthermore, realized. The democrat
ic central committee on last Satur dav
endorsed the candidacy of Jerry Simp-
son, and pledges him its eor,.ial sup
port. He will receive the solid vote of
the Ford county demo cracy, and is
now a part of the ticket. The same
friendly feeling thst caused the above
action is animatiyg alliance men to ral-
ly to the support of the democrati.
county ticket. 1t is feeling of friend
Illness tbat We are fighting a mutual
enemy.
The plea that J. L. Finley is an al
lance man is an absurdity. The re-
publican party of this state, from gov
ernor down to constable, are fighting
the alliance with all the venom and
bitterness that hate can inspire, and in
. majority Of the counties the alliance
has candidates in the field for the Of
fee to which Mr.. Finley aspires. Mr..
Finley's calling has made him eligible
to membership in that organization, but
to claim support from the order when
he is fighting its candidates with all
his power, is rare spectacle that alli-
ance men must enjoy. In so far as
friendliness to the alliance is concern
ed, G NJ. Hoover is far more entitled
to its support than j. L. Finley. He
stands on platform which the alli-
ance can endorse, and besides this he
heartily endorses the candidacy of Jer-
~ Simpson, and is friendly to the
whole alliance ticket. He is vastly
more interested in farming than J. L.
Finley, and has much more ability to
carry through measures that will be to
its benefit. The alliance, which has
shown sound judgment heretofore, will
not make a mistake in regard to the
county ticket.
Dodge City times., 1890-10-17
TRULY AMUSING.

And tell us, pray, what there is in it
(Mr. Hoover's platform) which was
not stolen entire from the principles of
Mr.. Finley as enunciated in last week S
Globe, with the exception of that por-
ton respecting irrigation, which was
borrowed from Mr. Finley's speech in
accepting the nomination as standard
bearer of the republican party of this
county, on the 22nd day of last July. =
Globe.
Well, well, this is truly am using.
Here is man who has never paid one
dollar in personal or real property tax,
teaching men paying thousandsof dol
lars into the county treasurer &hat is
for their interests. Mr.. Finley, over
burned with worry incident to paying
no taxes, and lying awake at nights
studying how he may in future years
avoid paying "a per cent on tax sale
certificate, is the only man In Ford
County able to comprehend that We are
suffering from these evils. G. NJ.
Hoover, owning thousands of acres of
land, vitality interested in low taxes,
irrigation, the Soldiers Home, the
Forestry station, in fact anything and
everything that will build up and de-
velop this country-he was unaware
that any of these things would benefit
him until told BY Mr.. Fin ley. Verify,
the Globe must consider its readers
without reasoning power.
The Globe says Mr.. Hoover never
declared his platform until that paper
came forth with last weeks article.
Well, the Globe stated that Mr.. Hoov-
er was opposed to all these things. 1t
came forth with number Of questions;
it attempted to make voters believe
that Mr.. Hoover was opposed to their
interests, and when he answers their
questions and refutes their statements
and carries CONSERVATION into their
ranks, they yell that he has stolen
their thunder. They wanted Mr..
Hoover to declare himself, and he has
did it. It would, Of course, have been

THE ISSUES.

The one paramount issue of THIS
campaign for the consideration Of the
voters, is that portion of the constitu-
tion which prohibits the sale of beer
whiskey and other intoxicating liquors.
The democrats and many thousands
of republicans have placed ticket in
the field, composed of democrats and
resubmission republicans, the men COM
posing the ticket, all being in favor of
this movement. The reason the peo-
pie desire to have this question resub-
mitted to vote of the people Is be-
cause, since the law went into effect
600, 900 people have come into the
state, and they have had no chance to
voice their sentiments on the ques-
tion. While republicans may argue
that these same people have had no
chance to voice their sentiments re-
garding the law against horse stealing,
yet this assertion is an absuraity, for
the reason that the facts and condi-
tions surrounding the two laws are
widely different. To begin with, the
prohibitory law usurps or takes away
personal rights. 1t prevents the citi-
zen from indulging in liberties, which,
ninety-nine times out Of hundred,
concerns no one but himself.
Second. the law has utterly and ab-
solutely failed in eifecting the ends for
which it was passed.
Third, through the impossibilty of
enforcing 1t, it has fastened upon so
ciety degraded liquor shops, called
JOINTS, where man or boy can obtain all
the liquor wanted
Fourth, the attempts to enforce the
law have been Intellectual, but prosecu-
tions of the offenders have cost the
state hundreds of thousands of dollars,
and the rate of taxation has increased
accordingly.
Fifth, not a dollar of ,evenue has
been obtained from places where liq-
uor has been sold, yet there has been
as much sold as if prohibition were not
in the constitution. This is proved by
the large increases in the number Of
government licenses issued.
Sixth, the census shows that Kan
sas, with all her fine natural opportu-
mites, which have been advertised in
every portion of the union, has not
kept pace with Colorado, Nebraska nor
Missouri in the per cent. of increase in
population.
Seventh, that the demand for a re-
submission of the prohibition question
to vote of the people, has grown to
such proportions that business is, to
certain extent, unsettled by the agita-
ton, and the discussion will not be
dropped until the people vote on it
again.
Eighth, there is not doubt that if
the question were taken out of politics
prohibition would be done away with.
A large number Of courageous republi-
cans have drawn away from their party
Dodge City times., 1890-10-17

The Globe wishes to know what Is
the matter with the democrats helping
elect the republican ticket this fall.
The matter is that the democrats have
too good ticket of their own to run
after false idols.
Dodge City times., 1890-10-17

The Globe cries shame on any vot-
er who will support Jerry Simpson.
The Atchison Champion, one Of the
good republican papers of this state,
says Hallowell is political swill-cart
a blovlating blatherskite, who makes
prohibition speeches while his .hide is
thoroughly soaked with whiskey.' y
The voters will make no mistake in
pointing the finger Of shame at one OF
these two men.
Dodge City times., 1890-10-17

The Globe calls Jerry Simpson a
afoul-mouahed slanderer,'' and says
he slandered Dodge City. This, be-
sides being lie 1--WE regret having to
use the world, is an insult to every al
lance mas,in the county. The state
ment VAS written by republican can
didate and endorsed by the republican
county ticket. The alliance will proS-
sbly remember this on election day.
