TRADES the WORD.
I'll the Republican Local Cam
didates Stand Out for
Themselves.
Neither the Organ Nor the
Committee Attempt to
Stop the Thing.
& Caustic Review OF a Bust
ness Transaction of Gov.
Mepria m.
Congressman Oar" Hall and
Fred Sumner Effect q
Combination.

The Ramsey county Republican cam
Daign has developed into a "gO-as-you
please" contest as far as the candidates
ire concerned. Each one of the nomi
leeS on the county ticket is seeking
votes for himself, and is doing nothing
whatever for the ticket as whole,
Grading is the principal stock in trade
oy at least three of the leading candi-
iateS. and they are willing to trade any
.hing and everything if their interests
Fan thereby be advanced.
This sort of work by Register of
Deeds Bell became SO notorious a few
weeks ago that he was called down by
he organ OF the county committee. He
pulled straight for few days. but is
low at his old tricks again, more openly
han ever.
Why doesn't the organ call him down
AGAIN?
Simply because he is only one of
number on the Republican ticket doing
The same thing, and as one OF their
number is a great favorite with the
paper referred To II complaint is made.
It's all right to trade in politics accord
ing to this diSrepuiahle evening organ
when the trading is done by its friends.
But there are candidates OH the Re-
publican county ticket who are doing
HE square thing in this fight. I'd un-
less two or three of the most reckless
traders are ''called down" very soon ny
The committee they will be heard
rom. They are out working for
The straight party ticket. while t. e
men who are pr0fiting by this work are
helping Il number Oh the opposition
n = ,.sf
The county COMMITTEE to prevent this
crooked work, but tEe entire time of
Chairman LOwenstein and Treasurers
Fitzgerald and Stevens seems to be
aiken up in devSing ways in which to
raise cash for the hGrleS of heelerS who
hang, like SO many leecheS, around the
ROOMS OF the committee.
Why has the evening Republican
organ SO suddenly stopped taking Oh
jhe subject of election judges and their
politics?
Is it because Nels J. Ness made so
much OF a hotch of his attempt to bribe
TWO judges of election in the Thirty-sec-
Dnd r,.cinct of the Sixth ward? Be
that dis it may, Mr.. Ness now stands ac-
FUSED of this attempted bribery by two
reputable citizens of that ward, and
although it is now upwards OF week
since the last of these charges were
made. Mr.. Ness has not yet taken any
steps to clear himself of these serious
.harges. As was predicted az the time,
he Republicans made all the racket
over the appointment of the Judges of
election simply to cover their own
cracked work.
i he voters of Ramsey county will I'M
ioubtedly lie treated to a large and
Taried assortment of -rOerbackS this
week, but the course of the organ VIII CHI
Mil spring them during The past few
weeks has thoroughly posted the peO-
Die as to the amount OF weight to Dp at
,ached To rumors printed in its columns.
But at the same time it may be we'll Tor
ihe Democrats of st. Paul to be prepared
n advance IOr the columns of SANDERS
and fakes which will be Sllowerei upon
;his community during the next few
lays.
