THE FIGHT FOR THE RIGHT.

The candidates upon the Republican
ticket in this county stand before the
people as representatives Of principles
whose establishment and mainten-
ance we firmly believe to be absolute
requisites of good government and
good times in the United States. IF
we may believe the great newspapers.
which have at command the best facili-
ties for gauging the current of public
opinion, and men Of national repute
who have given to the great questions
of the campaign the most careful and
conscientious study, there is no longer
any doubt of the triumphant election of
Mckinley and Hobart and of q large
eongressionalm majority standing square
ly upon the Republican platform of
protection and honest money. AS
Stunning this forecast to be correct, and
there fortunately is no apparent cause
to doubt it, would it not be the height
of folly for this great young state to
send to the national capital represent
tatives at war with the administration
and in a hopeless minority in congress?
And would it not be unwise in an
equal if not in o greater degree to en-
trust The administration of state affairs
to such an unhoiy and vicious alliance
as that which was effected at Ellens-
burg to make an onslaught upon the
public treasury under the banner of
Populism? 1t would be a defiance IN
stead Of an invitation to capital so
largely needed for the establishment
of new industries and the development
of the vast and varied resources which
a benefcient Creator has stored within
the boundaries of the state. Tt would
be great block in the wheel of prog
ress which it would require years of
patient and we'll directed effort to re-
move. 1t would be an inexcusable
surrender to the opponents of the same
vagaries which have driven thousands
of people and hundreds of thousands
of dollars from the state of Kansas, and
have made Oregon and Colorado and
every state tainted by their blight
shuned by capital and by intelligent
and progressive people in search oil
new homes for themselves and their
children. 1t would be notice to the
world that a majority of the citizens Of
this fair young state, rich in heritage
Of natural resources unsurpassed in al
