to the fact that the republicans have
betrayed their trust as a party.
But to show how narrow-mlnded
republicans are, the Journal contains
another dispatch, only a day or two
later, about as follows: THE repub.
lican state committee of Nevada has
demanded the resignation of Senator
Jones. They say that he was elected
as a republican, and that they are en-
titled to the full Sic gears Of repu6H-
can representation" seeming to for
get that when Senator Jones was
elected, the republican party occu-
pied wholly different position on
the silver and other questions, to
what it now does. Senator Jones
felt that he could no longer stultlfy
himself by remaining with such a
party, hence his change.
But all the changes do not come
from one party. On the contrary, the
same paper gives the account of the
conversion Of the great Judge Lyman
Trumbull, democrat; f. II. Wins
ton, prominent Illinois democrat;
tells how nine out Of ten Scandinavian
newspapers IN Minnesota comes out
for the peoples partyj tells of the con-
version in our own state, of Q. W.,
Van De Mark, a prominent republi-
can; Of f. w. Frasius, democrat so
high in the counsels of his party that
he was at one time its nominee for
lieutenant governor; of the change Of
Judge Botkln, and many other items
of mighty good readin,'" among
which 1 give the following from the
Journals issue of October II, 1894:
FoRT COLLINS, CoLo Oct 17,--Judge jefferson
McAnelly, for many years one Of the most inlu'
entail democrats in northern Colorado, has re-
sioned as member Of the democratic state cen
trail committee and Joined the pOpulists. lie say s
the democratic party has broken It's promise u
restore silver to lts rightful place in the coinage
of the country and he can no longer follow the
leadership of Cleveland.
This shows that those high in au
thority are now coming to our aid, be-
cause they realize that there is nc
hope for their country's welfare being
looked after by those whom they, il
their wisdom, thought TO trust.
Again, from the same issue l clip
the following:
BEATRICE, NEB Oct IL d. Wallace and II
d. RodmHn late Of Chicago, and managers of the
Daily Times here, tonight pulled down the re
publican ticket. and in dOuble-eaded editorial
announced their intention of supporting the pop
ulist ticket Only part of the issue got out be-
fore the stockholders of the concern attached the
Office on chattel mortgage and enjoned Wallace
and Redman from further issuing the paper
And this shows that the enemy il
desperate; so desperate that any kind
and all kinds Of methods will be re-
sorted to, in order to defeat this great
movement of the producers of Amer
lea. In the light of the methods that
are being resorted to by the old party
leaders and their men Fridays" we
need not be disappointed. or rather
should say surprised, if, when we tri.
umph las we surely will ultimately,
we see a repetition of the scenes OF
1893, or even of 1914.
But this is not all yet. The great
corporations are taking even more in
terest than usual In this campaign.
Only a few days ago the U. p. r. r.

ing politics or leaye the employ of

poration, q thing of no life, to attem pit

don't you think the government
should own the railroads?
But still there's more to follow
