Big naillas ConfusadI

Two or three of the alleged leading
daily papers of the state profess not to
be able, with all their tripod intelli-
gence, to understand how Bob Taylor
can decline TO be clamoring guber-
national candidate and yet accept the
nomination if it should be given him.
Matters of this kind always confuse
and mystify the organs of the rings
when they are opposed to a ring breaker
candidate and dare not speak their
sentiments in their respective journals.
The reason why they do not come out
against Bob Taylor is because they get
their support from the some scource
from which Bob gets his strength
the common people.
After the convention another mystery
will be presented to their dull heads
for solution. That is, how did it hap.
pen that others clamored and did not
get it?
