If Governor Tanuer of Illinois,
was a democrat no name would be
too severe for republican papers to
call him. He would bS bloody an
archist of the worst kind Being a
republican his actions in the coal
miners strike, of siding with the
miners against corporate greed and
refusing to allow the im portation of
Alabama negroes to take the place
of the strikers, he has placed the re-
publicans papers in very awkward
positi N, to say the least. Governor
Tanner evidently has miod of his
own and hasn't let Mark Hanna die
tate bis actions in this matter. But
while we admire his courage we feel
sorry for him. No one man is strong
enough to combat the republican
party, and a day of reckoning is
surely in store for the governor. The
republican party can not and will
not offend the great corporations of
the country.

BEGGING THE QUESTION.

| BEGGING Th6 QUhc 1AoA'
The Butler Free Press published
To- caustic editorial upon Hon.
Geo. B. Ellis, criticising and con-
demning his vote upon the school
text book law, and intImsting that
he was not sincere in his advocacy
of the reduction of public official
salaries.
Mr.. Ellis wrote clear and concise
statement of his attitude toward
both of these measures, giving good
and sufficient reasons to any fair,
unprej udiced mind for his vote asd
action. He pointed out how thou
sands of dollars had been saved to
the people Of the state by q previous
text book law. which contracted with
the book trusts for books at saving
of from 25 to so per cent of what
the same books sold for in other
states Unfortunately this contract
was only for five years This con
tract had expired aud it devolyed
upon the legislature Of which Dir.
Ellis was a member TO make new
contract, or let the trusts revert to
their original selling price for books
and thus fleece the people If a
law had been passed tstricting the
commission to the text books which
had beeu used under the old con
tract, there would have been nothing
10 prevent tue trusts from naming
their own price aad the commission
would haye had it's hands tied We
have no doubt that every represent
atiYe aud senator who voted for that
law did SO with the expectation that
the text books agreed upon by the
cid commission would be retained.
We know that was Mr. Ellis under
standing and desire. Tho chairman
of that commission is the present
of schools for the
state and republican, Eight of
the ten populists' votes in the house
were recorded for the bill. All of
this Mr.. Ellis points out IN his argu
ment, and, instead of Mr. Atkeson
meeting these points and pointing
out wherin he was in error, he plays
the part of demagogue and talks
about how Mr. Farris voted. It is
a matter of little Importance to Our
people how Mr.. Farris voted on this
or any other question We pre- sumo
he voted as his judgment and con-
science dictated, as we know Geo
B Ellis did
We admit that something of q
hardship was entailed upon our peo-
pie by having to change text books
this fall, but the present law pro |
vldes for continuance of the con
tract until otherwise provided by
law" which saves annually to our
people from so to so per cent what
shey would otherwise have to pay
for school books. Since our people
the new Iaw they are
we'll satisfied with it aud commend |
Mr. Ellis vote.

1t is given out with authority that
Dick Kerens and his crowd are flood
ing the state with money for the
purpose of capturing the next legis
lsture. That means the turning out
OF honest old Frank Cockrell, the
peoples friend aRi putting in this
railroad and corporation magoate
ksrens. The instructions are to
elect republicans if possible, If not
middle of the road populists. This
We have no doubt, accounts fer
Aikeson's bitter fight against George
Ellie, Is it is well known he has been
working under republican inspirs-
lion for q number At years.
