DEAR SIR: 1t is my duty per-
sonaly and as chairman of the

tricls OF the State, aud for these
reasons: Iu no other district but
the Fourth WIS il possible for US
to elect a Republican nominee.

ton of a Republican candidate
would surely bring about>not only

large number OF the masses, out
would operate to arouse and
bring out many Dea ocrats who,
not wanting to vote for CIeve-
land, would stay at home. Let
all do their best to get out the
Republican vote for our Repub,
llcan ELECTORAL ticket.

Republican nomination rs tue

Versary wants you to do.
3. If there ever was a time
when it Was wise TO nominate Il
candidate for Congress ia the
Fourth District that time has
Su ely passed. There Is no time
to arouse the Republican masses,
and no man could fairly expect to
get out and poll the Republican
vote who could not put two or

t. Let no Republican suppose
that I either prompted or coun-
seled the call of a convention 1t

bring upon the party consequence
es far beyond the disaster of de-
feat. The Pandora's box has been
opened, and it will take an eff ,rt
at the hands of the party in each
county to avoid consequences
that all will regret.
5. Now that the deed has been
done, thoughtful Republicans
who would advance our electo-
rial ticket and desire the flowing
disintegration now going on in
the Democratic party to proceed,
and would wish for an opportu-
nifty to get rid off the Anderson

to it that delegations are sent to

Congressional District forbears to
nominate a Republican candidate

OF great things in the future. The pas

convention in New Mexico is in the

to congress to turn over the arid
lands to the states and territories

it recommend that the general gov
eminent keep its hands off of the ir-
rigation question. The courts are
the place to settle all questions when
they arise. We have too much of

The gross earnings of l39 rail-

portant lines in the country, were 6.5
per cent greater in lS91than they were
in 1890. This is an encouraging ex-
hibit, but the best part of it is in the
fact that the greatest advances were
made in the closing months of the
year, and these big gains are still
kept up.
