VOTE for the resubmission ticket
is vote for men who mean what they
say, and are not afraid to say what

CARAwAY wants us to name the
ticket nominated on the 4th. Well
here it is: 1.-The winner, for money,
marbels or chalk" 3
A VOTE for K. F. Pleger, for super
intendeDt of schools, will be vote
for one of the best educated and most
competent men in Barton county.
SURPRISES" were all the rage at
the peoples party county convention
held at Hoisington, and if we read the
political horoscope Alright there are
more surprises to be announced after
the 4th of November.
IOWA was for many years the hot
bed of republican jobbery, just as Kan
sas is to-day. But the people united
inc heroic effort to purify their state
and were successful, just as the peo-
pie of Kansas will be in 1890.
THE seat of war now appears to be
in Fair Albion More statesmen in
htat one township than any other in
the county. Albion is bound to furn-
ish the next representative to the state
legislature from Barton county.
CARAwAY calls the resubmisson
republican convention ''snake shows
We thought from the crazy way in
which he was raying around, that he
was OH the verge of political delerium
tremens, and now we are sure of it..
He's got 'em bad.
q. r. ARCHER is fully competent to
fill the Office OF probate judge. He has

will in any manner assist in sending
the windy wonder back to the U. s.
senate.

n BASE fabrication, such as only q
man of Caraway's calibre could con
coct. Simpson never made any sucl
statement, and we defy Caraway tt
prove it.
ELSEWHERE in this issue of thu
DEMOCRAT Buckeye" our correspond
ent from Clarence dives into the polit
ical arena with a recklessness worthy
of Jack Fallstaff. He is young indeed
in politics if he thinks the question o
resubmission will cut no figure in thi
falls campaign. .'Wait, till we coun
out the votes"
w. r. BUNTING is the nominee Oh
the resubmissiOn ticket for clerk of th
district court. That he is also on tn
prohibition republican ticket for tn

PROBABLY the oldest practicin,
