Duluth Commonwealth: The Demo-
Gratis whanging away at the Cleveland
convention for not saying it's mind and
the Republicans whacking the Kentucky

wherein the chief business is to abuse the
other side and get elected.
Farmers Leader, Pipest0ne: Attorney
General Childs has advised State Auditor
Dunn to compromise the suit against the

Lyon County Reporter: The Republic
can League Clubs are lot Of boys that
are about as liable to do mischief as good.
They have shown the white feather when
ever they have been met by any emergen-

important of Republican planks was up
for discussion they crawled into their hole

prating about the deposits in savings
banks and asking the poor people whose
savings are in the banks if they wish to
be paid in "5S-cent dollars?" Well, if the
gold 2OO-cent dollar standard is main

out their money in the 200-cent dollars
and see how quickly the banks will close
their doors with bang.
Farmer and Miner, Oskaloosa, Iowa:
The fact that the Peoples Party is the
only real silver party.is being acknowl-

like that is at large?
