STUCK,

Talking with an honest farmer the
other day, he said, II am tired OF the
old parties, have lost all faith in them,
and this new party and its platform just
suit me, but will it amount to anything
o r will it die out just as the old green
back party did? I don't believe the
people will stick together. I know the
principle is right and that a change is
needed. but will they stick" This ques-
ton, "Will they stick?" is one very often
asked. Somewhere recently we read ii
mans nsw to that question. Saddle
to the interrogation, "My friend will, you
stick? You say that you believe the
movement is right, chat a change is
needed. Now If you are honest in this,
you are bound to stay with the move
ment though but a hundred votes be
cast in the whole state. It should not
concern you whether anyone else sticks
ornot. Will you stick?" Said a repub-
lican politician with whom we were talk
ing in Pierre after the Huron conventions:
''There is no question, but that the in
dependent ticket will be successful if the
farmers and laborers only hang together,
but III game will be to divide them and
hold them in the old parties" Now, it
would not be a hard matter to accom-
plished this if men who believe the move
mentis right are going to wait until they
are sure the crowd is going their way,
1t is no compliment to a mans intelli-
gence that after being convinced a thing
is right he still wants C ask, will the
crowd follow? There is a certain float
ing vote, l.trgely Of the towns, that goes
with the crowd, a little money judicious-
ly expended with a few leaders, turns it
this way or that. The independent
party cannot expect that vote, but it
surely has reason to expect that every
man who governs his own vote and who
arrives at the conclusion that's new, clean
party is needed will have the manhood
to stand up for his convictions. At the
Huron convention the spokesman OF
sonis delegation, after q fair discussion
was heard as to the ACCESSIBILITY OF the
independent move, announced that his
county would stick by the new move.
ment.s Another delegation announced
that their county was stuck and SO. il
passed over the a~ssemblage until the
word 4sstuck" became a very common x-
preston of adherence to the ewdepart-
ure. Let us hereafter whenanyonea asks,
win they stick, ask them, "Are you
stuck? II you are, stick your neighbor.' Z

LOOKING TO THE FUTURE.
Members Of the Republican Con-
gressiOnal Campaign Com
mittee Busy Day and
Night.
Determined Attempt Being Made
to Secure a Majority in the
Fifty-Second Congress.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 6.-Since congress
adjourned the only active place in the ma
tiona capital is the headquarters OF the
republican congressional campaign COM
mittee. Five stories of building are
alive day and night with clerks VINO are
busy ali the time The republicans are not
making still hunt and they have not
made any announcement of the plans OF
campaign But there is deal of work
beng done and there is yet fighting
chance to elect "a majority of the next
house.
The headquarters have been under the
management of j. J Belden until lately.
Now ]. S Clarkson is in full control and
the congressional elections are conducted
from his room to a greater extent than such
elections were ever before RON 10y the re-
publican party. Under Mr.. Clarkson there
are editors who prepare campaign docu-
ments for him and who also help nm IN
calculations of the work necessary to be
done to enable contests to be made IN dis
tricts where the democrats, If they rely too
much upon supposed popular feeling
against the republicans, may neglect the
efforts to which the republicans are devo'-
ing themselves without regard to the com
forting notion prevailing IN democratic
headquarters that this is an ''Otf year.
Visitors are not discouraged when they
call at the republican committee room by
being told that the committee does not
know anything about the work in the dis
tricts. 1t knows all about the work IN
every district, and so much about 1t that
no .mpostor or striker is likely to de-
ceive all of the adroit men through whose
hands the adventurer will have to pass.
CARTER AT WORK.
The secretary of the committee, Repre-
sentative Carter of Montana, is one of the
most knowing of politicians as oily as a
ducks back, and he is an lndeiati gable
worker. Now that congress has adjourn
81, his working force is being recruited
with men from the house who are famili n
| with business about campaign head
quarters, and the result of their labors are
! seen in the huge boxes OF documents that
| are taken from the door every day and
| that are sent to all the states of the union.
| Every district is looked after. There is
no intention of sighting of the districts
| that are now republican but where lax
work mi ght cause defeat. The republican
party enters the race like a large co-opera-
! tive army, aud the victories IN Maine, Wy
oming and Idaho are cheering them on.
Southern members of congress predict
! that Of The twenty-four republican mem
bers of congress from the southern states
not more than two or three will be re-
turned at the coming election. They have
announced their intention of making the
south solid as far as congressional cleo
tions are concerned, and announce that
the federal election bill is what will do 1T.
The gerrymander in Tennessee and Ken
lucky viii cause loss of these republican
members.

The Other Organizations on the New York
Central Complain.
New YORK, Oct. lit is reported that
the management Of the New York Central
railroad was asked 10y the other labor
organizations to drive the Knights of
Laboc from the service of the company.
A correspondent writes: 1T is not gener-
ally known but it is tact that this latest
order not only has the approval of some of
the other organizations, but that
the Central management has been
actually requested by representa-
tives of the locomotive and5 firemens
brotherhoods to drive the knights of labor
cat of the system. Members of the
brotherhoods, as in the switchmens
union, have been complaining ever since
the strike that .hey were molested, threat
ened, abused and were at times in a state
of terror on account of the intimidation
practiced 10y the walking delegates and
other acts of the knights.
A committee of the locomotive engineers
brotherhoCl went so far rs TO tell Webb
that the company would have to choose
between the engineers organization and
that of the knights. There is no opposi-
ton on the part of the Central manage
ment to any labor organization whatever
excepting the knights. In fact it is
claimed, that all of the others are encour-
aged and supported.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.--ln his annual
report Governor Warren estimates tho
population of Wyoming at something
over $4,000 These figures are fur
nished by the census supervisor, but the
governor is of the opinion that they do
not represent the entire population owing
to the difficulty in taking the census in
such limited time. The assessed
valuation of the taxable prop
erty in the state is $50, 665, 499,
which the report states is not more than
one-third of the actual value There is a
cash balance in the treasury of S9i,9l4
and the bonded debt is S320,000 The

State is about the same as last year. but
there are fewer large herds and many
more smaller ones. The coal mines and
