Fusion Brings Anything but Harmony
In

Spokane, Sept %. - SPECIAL. - County
Commissioner Thorpe is on the warpath
after his Populist brother Mudgett. who
has been nominated for county treasurer.

ing through the northern part OF this
county advocating the election OF Louis
Bowman. the Republican candidate, for
assessor. and al the same time driving
spikes to fence of the voters OF his party
from Treasurer Mndgett.
The elements OF the fusion ticket in this
county do not seem 10 blend. Many OF
the Democrats and silver Republicans
have announced their intention to sup
port p. c. sullivan for governor and the
Populists In turn have announced that
they are willing 10 see the silver Repub-
leans on the state ticket sacrificed. They
say that they do not care 20 have men
outside of their own party entrenched in
positions of power and influence when
their supporters are openly declaring their
Intention 70 knife the nominees on the
Popuhst ticket.
Razors are flying through the air be-
tween the local factions in the PopuIist
party.
The Belt faction has no love for Mr..
Young and his friends. This faction de-
clares that IL now has an opportunity TO
ger even with Mr.. Young for throwing the
nomination FOR governor away from Spo-
kane county. and they propose 10 show
