Ticket, BoastfnlIv Announcing That
They Will Elect 1t, Kick or No Kick
Vote For the Fusion Ticket Means a
Slap at the Best Populist Workers of
moraI of Joe Furnish Republicans
Clean Men OF Good Party
The Republican ticket will be elected
today. There is not a reason Why it
Shouldn't, and every reason why it
Should. A vote for the fusion ticket is
an endorsement of the snubbery and
bossism Of Jocelyn and Spencer. IF you
are Populist and believe in the princi-
pies advocated 10y the party, and if you
voted last fall for Leedy and for the
Pop members of the legislature from
SedgTick county, and walk UP 10 the
polls today and vote the Pop ticket
again, by your actions you admit that
last fall you were wrong and stulGfy
yourself or you want by your vote 10
encourage political shystering and inf
deity of public officers. You know the
legislature didn't give you what it
promised and what you asked and voted
for. You know the Pop members got
into the biggest row over Doodle among
themselves ever known in the state leg
islature. You know that the state trea-
sury is empty for the first time and it
r. go by reason of the $500 Doodle in
vestigation, the 81 200 jaunting commit
tee TO Texas, the 500 other jaunting
committee 20 the Kansas City stock
yards, the 500 other jaunting committee
60 Cimarron and Anthony, the $500
jaunting committee and investigation
clan 20 Cowiey county, the $500 other
Doodle committee that found a half
sided excuse 10 investigate the record of
Colonel Taylor, - the thousands OF 9TH
er dollars for committees and investi-
cations and extravaganza of one sort
and another have gone out and gone out
till the treasury is empty. The bottom
of the vault IS as vacant as the top OF
Welob McNalTs head, and by the way,
Webb has himself been responsible for
a drainage Of several thousand dollars
from the treasury, and even now every
day has his two men travelling around
at IS per day and mileage pretending to
inspect insurance records. You know
vote for Wrmple, and Burton. and
Brown and the fusion ticket is an en-
dorsement OF all ths Jocelyn and
Spencer, who are Leedy'g police COM
miSsioners, put up this ticket, doing just
as they pleased, and pleasing to give the
PopuIist wing Of fusion the worst pos
In
bosses, prostituting the police force OF
Wichita TO sthe election Of ticket in
which you had no say, and for the sole
purpose OF commenting themselves TO
Governor I1eedy and continuing them
selves In Office. You know that vote
for the fusion ticket Is an endorsement
os the way Jocelyn and Spencer have
kicked Joe Furnish out of the police
commission. You know that the cleo
ton of the fusion ticket is direct aid
to the dismissal OF Furnish, and a sane
ton of the way Jocelyn and Spencer
have slapped Cone and Lewelling and
Sankey and the other old workers OF
Wichita and Sedgwick county. You
know. you Populists. that the election
pf the fusion ticket establishes in the
police commission Joceiyn and Spencer,
an odious bossism and ring dominated
by pure gall, against which You have
talked and voted 50 much.
You know that the Republican noni-
nees are clean men and represent a par
~ that keeps lis promises. VIII you
slap yourself and your friends in the
face and continue an experiment that
has cost you money and principle, when
good men of party OF good principles
are on the ballot?
Hunt up the Republican ticket and
make your mark on the right
