Rails cannot be had Of any one else.
This is the situation which MIR Rookie

much cheaper.

The Split-Tailed Ticket.

A correspondent asks: "What eff
feet will the spit-tailed ticket have
on Mr.. Bryan's chances of election?
Is he not better off with two tails
than with one?''
If Mr.. Bryan were to be voted for
directly, he could lose nothing by
being the head OF split tailed ticket,
and might gain something. Both Bry-
n-Sewall and Bryan Watson votes
would cent for him. The same
would be true if the populists and
democrats fused, and placed but one
electoral ticket in the field. But if
the populists refuse TO fuse, and both
Bryan Sewail and Bryan Watson cleo
sors are run in a state, then Mr.. Bryan
cannot get single electoral vote
rom the state unless either one or
