says: Attempts have been made to show
Watson favored fusion IN Indiana. This
Is incorrect. Mr.. Watson took the posi-.
ton at the beginning Of the campaign that
no popul!st could consistently vote for a
Scwall elector any more than he could vote
for a Hobart %elector. He filed with Char.
man Butler a written protest against Mr..
Buffers fusion policy. Mr.. Butler ignored
Mr.. Watson's protest and has gone stead.
lily forward on one l,ne.
"Mr. Watson's position Is now what II
was when the Georgia state convention
met. He is for a straight middle-of-the.
road ticket. In no other way can the
democratic managers be forced TO ABIDE
by the 81. Louis contract. Mr.. Watson's
position has been Illuminating and embar.
