No candidate is regular who has OBJ
tained his nomination by means OF
dirty trick and baro.faoed deception. no
candidate can be regular who stands
upon the platform that has been kicked
over by more than four-nftha OF tho
Republican state conventions throughout
tho Union. No candidate In regular who

Day before yesterday this pirate crew
assumed charEe OF the Populist ship un-
dor command OF Captain Jonathan
Bourne; before the campaign IL over
they will doubtless attempt u general
fusion. DO not let them deceive you,
because they dare Haunt the regular
Republican flag at the masthead OF their
rotten ship. for n you DO they viii surely
sail you out OF the safe harhor OF the
Republican party into tho dangerous ana
piratical waters Of Populism.
I have voted for Ellis twlco-whSt has
he done to merit my support as Il Repub-
lican for third tcrmg He has repeated
ly voted with the gnng who have held up
tarin and financial legislation for which
our industries and credit were langulsh-
ing and dying. simply because our strong
party leaders In congress refused 20
adopt the shibboleth n the Populist tribe,
We true-blue Republicans owe Ear more
TO our national party than to the So
called Mitchell Republican party; and II
We would strengthen the hands OF our
next president we must send Judge
Northup TO congress to stand out boldly
for his party and its principles; whereas
ELLIS, II elected, Judged BY his past rec
ord must and would go on with the
free silver crowd and attempt to hold
up such tariff and sound money egisla-
ton as may be asked for by our party
leaders.
Republicans, do not allow yourselves
10 be deceived by the cry OF boilers; Il

Popullst coadIutors who are the real |
boilers: and their record shows Il, Did |
they not hold up the regular Republican |
caucus nominee AZ Salem during the last |
session. Did they not support and vote |
with Tillman and other Popullsts In con-
gress against such Republicans as Sher- |
man, Morrill,, Allison and ReedY Are |
they not even now attempting to fuse |
with Popoulists all over oregon for the |
purpose OF electing a free silver legisa-
