LEGISLATIVE TICKET.
Had there been a fusion between
Democrats and Populists on the legis-
lative ticket in 1894, 80 counties which
elected Republicans would have beer
carried ythe Democrat opulist COM
bination.
Following are the counties which
elected Republican legislators in 1894
but which showed a clear majority fol
a Democrat opulist fusion: Adair
Atchison, Barry, Bollinger, Secont
District, Buchanan; Butler, Caldwell
Cedar, Dade, Daviess, DeKalb, Doug
las, Jackson, Second District; Jack
son, Fifth District; Jefferson, johnson
Lawrence, Linn, Livingston, Melon
aid, Moniteau, Montgomery, Morgan
Newton, Nodaway, Phelps, Ripley, 81
Clair, Texas and Worth.
This change in the result would Civ
l the Democrats an overwhelming ma
) jority in the lower house. The sam
sort of a combination would carry tn
Senate by a proportionately large ma
jority.
:. ROZELLE'S POSITION.
In discussing the probable result o
: the Sedalia Convention, Chairman Ro
, zelle, of the Populist State Committee
, said yesterday: "Since the action o
: the st. Louis Convention, 1 can SCI
. only one thing left for the Missouri
. Populists to do. We are, of course
+ interested in the election of Bryan
/, He is our nominee by an overwhelm
J ing majority, and our convention can
not, therefore, do anything to injur'
his chances of election. At the sam
time many of the Populists will wan
. recognition on the electoral ticket an
also in the Legislative districts.
: this can be arranged satisfactorily AN
: see no reason why it cannot be, ev
erything will be harmonized."
1t has been suggested, and the prop
= osition meets with favor, that the Sc
dalia convention adopt resolution
: setting forth it's position and leave tn
details of the fusion to its State Com
mittee and the Democratic State Com
% mittee.
