1t was for one thing at one moment ant
at the next it would be directly opposit,

tried his best TO make it orderly and quiet
I The ticket is considered strong by a

! VI course the Democrats are little sore
because the fusion scheme did not work
and naturally think the ticket very weak
Some of the Peoples party member:
say the ticket is weak but they
probably do not exceed twenty per cent OF
the entire strength OF the party The
ticket as made is rs follows: L. ID. Lew

chief justice; Professor Gaines OF Salina,
for state superintendent Of public instruc-

Judge Martin for chief justice by the
Democrats and he came very near being
nominated as a stampede had already
commenced for him when the chairman
stopped it by announcing the vote. He
stopped it just In time to save Allen who
had just one vote to spare although he
had probably forty before the changes"
began to take place, in his favor. As it
is "a foul" is claimed and there was an
open charge made that the secretaries of
the convention purposely committed Il
fraud in the counting of the votes. 1t is
quite possible that if another vote was
ordered Judge Martin would have been
nominated.
