RIDING ONE BEAST TO DEATH.

anu ~ ~ IeUuke IL Oh NOV. that no
traitor consplring to steal state shall
ever again dare to appear before the
| people of the Northwest.''
Of course it is for the "men of Min
| nesota" to decide for whom they will
vote IN the national election; no Demo-
crat mas word to say against this, and
the only place there will not be a free
ballot is in the territory ruled over bv
| a member of the Republican state CEN
trail committee, the bully. Capt" Joe
Sellwood. In the mining camps of Sou
dan Harrison will get nearly every vote
by means that would put to Shame
Bob Jamison if he were honest in his
''laSt deSpalring waii.''
Every man has a right and duty In
| resentlng the action that has been taken
by the Democratic state bosses. with
the knowledge and connivance of the
heads of the Peoples party. 1t is a
common Slur and SANDER and insult on
them ALL"
The methods used by Committeeman
Sellwood do not prevail throughout the
state, and except in that portion of the
state man VINO wants to vote for
Cleveland or Weaver or Harrison will
be allowed to do so. Mr.. Jamison grows
more maudlln as he goes on. But here
is most amusing sentence. The apathy
which now hangs like grim death about
the neck OF the monopoly party is to be
brushed away. and all the people, in
GLIDING John Goodnow, are to cheer tor
grandpa's hat.
But to the Republican party it
should bring a great incentive and
great announcement. This is no longer
DAY OF uncertainty Or an hour when
apathy can prevail. Now we know
whom we have to fight and what weap-
onS we must USE"
Now that Mr.. Jamison knows the
weapons demanded, he ought to tell the
people what they are. There is gen.
eral Impression that each county chair
man received from 800 to 1000 of these
weapons last Saturday. If this is cor
rect, the hungry and thirsty brethren in
the country should call on these COM
mltteemen and be armed at once.
MI. Jamlson, as he goes OH, grows
wilder and more furious. His indigna-
ton at the nomination of Messrs.
Stromberg, Meighen, Dillon and HoIlo-
way knows no bounds. The following
is a sample from this section of his
TRADE:
This devilish malignity passes all the
bounds OF political opposition in free
ana fair field ever known in the North
west. 1t is an Importation into our pol
ltlcs OF the spirit Of the vendetta the
spirit of that land of Democracy where
FAIRNESS and freedom are unknown. and
hatred and malice and all uncharitabIe-
ness govern in political battles. What
snail he the answer of the voters of
Minnesota to plan which would use
the honor and the prosperity of the state
as football for ambitious and unscruu-
ulOuS pOliticians?''
And has it come to this, the Repub-
lican party of Minnesota pleads for
charity?
The outraged people who have been
plundered without word of protest bv
their party for many years will listen to
appeals for charity from the rings
bob JamlSOn represents with derision.
Ihey will give the wheat, pine and iron
rings the same style of charity they
have received in the past.
Chairman Jamison i'll one paragraph
tells Democrats that they cannot vote
for Cleveland because four of the nine
candidates for electors are OIL the Peo-
pies party ticket, and in another tells
the Peoples party that it cannot vote
tor thete men because they have prom
lsed to vote fer Cleveland.
Chairman Jamison is not exactly i'm
harmony with himself. For pure un.
adulterated asininlty the following
stands unrivaled:
The appeal lies, too. to those men
who have voted or intend to vote with
the Peoples party because they were
dissatisfied with both of the old organi-
cations. What shall these men saw of
the new deal? If the Staunch Democrat
IS horlfied and angered when he finds
himself shut into the necessity of sup
porting Weaver and Field, what shall
be the attitude of the member of the
People s party who learns that he is
sold out with equal certainty: who
hears everywhere the uncOnceaIed
boasts of Democratic bosses that the
electors OF his party whose names have
been placed upon the Democratic ticFet
Will vote for the Democratic nOminees?''
Realizing that neither elooueuce.
promises nor money will induce the for
mer members of the Republican marty
to enthuse over Harrison, Nelson and
Davis, Chairman Jamison makes the
following entreaty:
10 the Republicans of this state the
announcement of the contamination of
this bargain comes like the call of the
trumpet to battle. Now. there must be
no over-cOntidence, no Indifference. no
trusting to foreordained results. From
this hour until the closing of the polls
on election day, every man to whom
the principles of his party are dear
should constitute himself a tireIess
agent and worker for the party of his
faith and loyalty"
He KNOWS now the dark combination
that has planned its fall" continues
Chairman Jamison, speaking of the Re-
publican voter.
Ii this is not confession of defeat,
what is il?
But here is more AFFECT confession
In the very next sentence:
HE knows now the dark combination
that has planned its fail. He canmeas.
ure the danger that threatens it. He
can see the contempt and the sacrifice
