JERRY SIMPSON, the peoples candi-
date for congress is rapidly gaining
ground, and his election is becoming
surer every day. There are a few
democrats, who could not succeed in
forcing the democratic congressional
convention to nominate a straight dem
ocratic ticket, who will perhaps vote
for HallOweli, but there are four repub-
licans who will vote for Simpson where
there is one democrat who will vote tor
HallOwell. Their reason is obvious.
They were always promised by the
republican leaders, that their candidate
should be farmer. There were quail
fed farmers before the republican con-
vention for that position, but it was
decided at headquarters in the repub-
lican party, Wall street, Carnigie ct al,
that no farmer could be used at present
because they would plead too strongly
that the common people must have
justice, which would be in opposition
to class legislation i'm favor of the cor.
poration and bond holders, and the
result is, q cunning lawyer and pOlitl
clan was nominated against the will OF
the people, even in the republican party
and they will not support him. Hurrai
for Jerry Simpson, tho peoples choice
