EAU GALLIE, Fla, July 3, 90
Allow me to say that | endorse The
CAUCASIAN fully in its course. | see
the Denis have put up State ticket,
and as usual, lit is the best ami
strongest ticket they could have
named" so they all say. How ride
ulous they do make themselves, For
instance, two years ago it was quite
a pill for them to vote for Judge
Clark, and this year they nearly
broke their necks trying to get him
TO run for Governor, and at last en-
dorsed him for Vice President. Do
you suppose they ever stop to think
how ridiculous this makes their
abuse of Populists appear7 They
are going to win too. Oh yes, Ger
tainly they are! The Populists are
lutte lambs, eager to be led to toe
slaughter! All they wanted was for
the Dammys to declare for free coin
age 10 to l. and they would all be
breaking their necks in their haste
to get back into the dear old DENNY
party! Oh yes, of course they are!.
Pops will be only too glad to vote
for men who, two years ago, would
scarcely recognize them as men, and
who did not think the vote of Pop
or q Rep WAS fit to be counted. Oh,
certainly, we are very anxious to
vote for such men. And, of course
we are more than anxious to vote
for Judges Avery and Brown!
Why certainly. To be sure. OF
course! why not! Certainly they are
for free coinage, and it doesn't make
any difference that they think there
is only one party in North Carolina
and that Pops and Reps are not il
it. Certainly, the DENNY declara
ton for free silver covers every
thing. They never declared them
This is the FIRST time!
For which if Senator Buffers vote
in the Senate did poor old Kings
bury stone him so numerically TIA,
