In 1892 the dose was repeated, and

list vote throught the country is i'll
creased in like proportion. The solid
south has been broken By the elec-

both the Carolinas, probably Texas,
and possibly other southern states.
There has been Il general breaking W
of old party lines both north and south
and general movement for new
alignment of forces. with the mono
poles and corporations on one side
and the people on the other.
When all the facts of the late eiec-
tons come to light, it will be seen
that the Populist have been the larg-
est gamers in the contest and will
have greater reason for jubllatlon
than any other party in existance.

Laughlin was formerly captain of the efey-
enth precinct. The woman swore that she

paid $50 to Burns. When Burns wanted a

down and penniless. Her money had gone
into the police Golfers.
