Governor (Rep(, by 1900 to 1900 That
district has undergone the most remark
able change ever known in the politics of
the country. due mostly to the A. P. A.
ano partly to the manufacturing inter-
ests. 1t is supposed that Cummings is de-
feated by fourteen votes in New York
city, but that is not sure. 1 understand
our friends in Michigan, admit that the
Repubhcans have. carried the state, and
all but two members OF Congress. Tars-
ney'S election in Missouri seems to be in
doubt. The A. P. A. has been active
losses, but several gains, including the
seat now held by Murray (colored Rep)
of South Carolina. There seems to be
no possibility of a loss of more than one
district of Virginia. If the reports of the
Associated Press are correct, it will be i'm
possible for the Democrats to organize the
House. The Republicans are claiming
everything, but 1 pay very little attention
to their claims. We expect to receive
kilograms from every Democratic candi-
date for Congress, and then we will have
something definite on which to base an
estimate"

Boise, Ida. Nov. 1.-THE election passed
off quietly in this state. So far as heard
from interest everywhere is great. and it
is thought a very large vote has been
until after midnight. During the day,
both Democrats and Republicans have
claimed the governorship, and some wag-
ers have been made >on it. The Demo-
but the Populists have laid claim to the
congressman. 1t is the opinion of the
most conservative men, however, that the
state has gone Republican on state ticket,
congressman and legislature.
A new element is the Mormon vote.
There are $500 of these votes and both
sides have claimed q. majority of it.

We understand that move is on
foot to get Mr.. Wagner off the track,
as certain candidates on the populist
ticket regard him as a load to the
ticket. We are informed that a GER
tain candidate on the populist ticket
who lives in this city, has been fgur-
ing with Logan parties to fill the va
cancy on the ticket aud be "a candidate
for the Legislature, on the You
scratch my back and I'll scratch
yours" plan. How does this strike
the man who is standing up for prin-
ciple" for reform? Dispatch
The only persons who consider Mr.
Wagner a load" which they can't
move, are the republicans. The rest
of the above is about as clear as mud.
The idea that "a certain candidate"
on the populist ticket wants to "be a
candidate for the Legislature" on the
back-scratching, or any other plan is
as absurd as 1t is far fetched and
idiotie. Royce must have written the
above item after another such a night
as he spent some months ago-when
ON waking ia the morning he found
boon companion of the night be-
fore sleeping in his armchair before

twelve miles for four cents, thirty

In Hungary where the roads are

SIX miles for one cent, aud since the
government bought the roads wages
have doubled. Belgium tells the same
story. Fares and rates have hepn cut
down one-half and wages doubled

In Victoria, where the government
owns the railroads, fares are not half
as high as in this country, aud the net

Being Worked by A. H. ELLIS
to Defeat His Opponent.
Mankato, Kansas, Aug. IA, 1894,
To the UoterS of the Sirth Congress
sional District of Kansas.
At n republican meeting in Jewell
City, July %, A. H, Ellis, republican
nominee for congress, exhibited a bill
which he SAID was II. b. No 1910 in
troduced by VIM. Baker, and was a
banking scheme. He conveyed to the
minds of his hearers that it was Ba-
ker's bill, and used 1t to prejudice the
minds of the voters against Mr.. Ba-
ker. Now, desire to make a state
ment of facts in the case, and vol
nnteer the prediction that when the
voters, of this district, regardless Of
party become aware that candidate
will stoop 80 low rs to use trickery
and deceit, if not downright lying, to
defeat his opponent as Mr., Ellis did
at Jewell City, they will administer
the rebuke he so justly deserves, at
the ballot box next November.
The facts in the case are ms follows,
and Mr.. Ellis knew them when he
used that bill at Jewell City. Some
men in Russell county drafted that
bill, and wrote to Mr.. Baker asking
him If he would introduce it in CON
gress. Mr.. Baker replied that il it
met his approval and the approval of
the Kansas delegation in congress he
would do So The bill was sent to
him and after examining it, he wrote
its author that it did not meet his APP
proval and that he could not advocate
lts provisions. Then the author ask
ed him to introduce it by request,
which Mr. Baker did and should have
done, for every man has q right to be
heard in congress. The introduction
Of the bills by request is very com
mon occurrence and when 80 INTRO
duced does not necessarily represent
the sentiments OF the man who intro
ducps them.
Mr.. Ellis knows very we'll that leg
lslators and congressman are frequen-
tly called upon to introduce, and do
introduce by request, bill for their
constituents which they do not APP
prove and which they peronally op.
pose when they come before the body
to he acted upon, and when he takes
such hill which has printed on it's
title page "by request" and haunts it
before his listeners as Bakers bill"
and Bakers sentiments" he ia stoop
ing to methods that may he admssi-
bic in a game of draw poker but will
not he sanctioned by the honest vo-
ters Of this district.
Yours for truth and Justice,
