THEIR WEAK TICKET
THOSE IN A POSITION TO KNOW
DECLARE IT THE WEAKEST
EVER NOMINATED.
Alger, When a Banker. Was Against
the Free Coinage of Silver-Voor-
hees. the Unsuccessful Candidate
Priest, the Deficient-Brown, Bly,
d%enburgh, Miller and Arnold.

The democratic ticket this year is
regarded by hose in a position to know
as the weakest production ever SUBJ
mitted to the people of the state. Not
withstanding what has been said by
the democratic newspapers. Alger,
strong man, either before the people or
in his OWN party. Two years ago, it
may be said to his credit. he voted
against Bryan, for the reason that he,
Alger, was connected with the banking
business and was strongly opposed to
the issue of cheap dollars under the
16 to ! proposition. On account of his
position on the silver question at the
last election, he has been regarded since
that time with suspicion by all that
class Of democrats who are satisfied
a ratio OF 1G to 1, without the consent Of
any other nation. If he pretends to be-
lieve in the free coinage proposition
now it is simply to get office. He will

Their candidate for state .rea 'lrer
cannct be charged with anything good
or Dad. At home in Cheyenne he IS re-
garded simply as an unsuccessful can
didate. He has run for all kinds Of Off =
ces but never was elected to any. Once
he succeeded in getting himself ap-
pointed territorial treasurer. but this
appointment came from a good ways
from home or he never would have Sc
cured it. In Laramie county, where he
is best known. he will be beaten by not
less than 700 votes and in the whole
state he will be defeated by three or
four thousand.
Dave Miller. who is on the ticket for
secretary Of state. lacks every qualif-
cation for any kind Of office. People
who know him best consider it unwise
to elect him to the important position
OF secretary Of state. which officer. un-
der our constitution, may become gov
ernor. 1t would be suicide to elect a
man to a state office, who is so no.

The new style is to get as far away from
the long popular "choker" as Is posi-
BILE. The "hoker's" points met under
the chin, enclosing the neck in a steel
like wall of starched linen. Lofty is the
word that best expresses its height. 1t
tilted the chin up most uncomfortably.
