All the Money Spent Has
Been Spent By the
Democrats
AVOID "BLACK AND TAM"
1t Represents A Disreputable Job and
Deserves Condemnation.
tiOns To VOters.-The Official Bal
lOt.-The Conspiracy.


Tomorrow is election day and today
business is practically suspended In
Ell Paso and an air of suspended excite
ment is noticeable among the can
didates and their hackers, who realize
that only short time is to elapse until
they know the result of the battle OF
the ba lots.
They realize that the campaign is
at an end and the fight
is practically closed and
all that remains for them to do is to
await anxiously the tale to be told by
the tally sheets tomorrow night.
Australian ballots for the election
were being turned out by the printers
yesterday. Beginning at the left of
the ballot the six tickets appear in line
each set of candidates. First comes
the democratic ticket, then the 'black
and tan republican ticket.' The re-
publican ticket is next. The peo-
ple's party ticket is fourth, the social
ist labor ticket fifth, and the prOhibi-
tion ticket last.
Only the first three contain the
names of candidates for county offices.
Republicans have to do only with the
repu blican and the "black and tan"
republican tickets. The former ticket
Is
officers and for representative in con-
gress from the 18th district. It contains
the name of j. G. Welch for represen-
tative in the legislature from the Goth
district. For county offices the list of
cand dates nominated by the regular
republican convention is printed.
The "black and tan" republican
ticket contains the names of all the
democratic state nominees, and Steph-
ems for congress. 1t contains the names
of Bridgers and Jones for the legisla-
for county attorney; otherwise the coun-
ty and precinct ticket is the same as
the republican ticket.
HOW TO MARK THE BALLOT.
Draw a BLACK pencil line through
ONE of the two lines at the top of the
ticket, leaving untouched the line for
which you desire to cast your ballot.
If you are FOR the amendment, cross
out the line beginning AGAINST. If
you want to vote against the amend
ment, cross out the line beginning
"for." The amendment is a desirable
one, and should be approved.
REPUBLICANS desiring to vote
STRAIGHT TICKET will draw heavy
BLACK cross marks across EVERY 9TH
Err ticket BUT the third in order-the
u
this, write in the proper blanks the
names of JOS Sayers and 81. 81. Neill,
if you 80 desire. PUT NO PENCIL
MARK OF ANY SORT on the ticket you
desire to vote, unless to scratch out
some Objectionable name or write one
IN THE PROPER BLANK. If you do,
the whole ticket is liable to be thrown
out.
DEMOCRATS DESIRING TO SCRATCH
THE NAME OF BRIDGERS and vote for
Welch will mark heavy black crosses
across the second, fourth, fifth, and
sixth columns. Draw q heavy black
line through the name of Bridgers on
the democratic ticket. Then cross out
every name on the republican ticket
EXCEPT that of Welch, and leave that
PLAINLY UNMARKED.
To scratch any other name, proceed
similarly.

"ODD BUG. THAT"

paign is an exciting one fought out on
state issues, Congressman William A.
Stone the republican nominee, Is OPP
posed by George A. jerks, democrat;
Silas @. Sallow the nominee of the
populist, prohibitionist, liberty, and
honest government parties. and j..
Mahlon Barnes. socialist laborite.
Washington's election is confined to
the choice of two congressman.
In Minnesota there are five state
tickets in the field. William 81. Eus-
tis is the republican choice for gov
ernor, and John Lind, the nominee of
the democrats and populists. Seven
congressman are also to be chosen in
Minnesota.
In North and South Dakota the fusi-
onists are somewhat demoralized, but
the party managers claim they will be
able to pull the state tickets through.
The republican appear equally conf
dent of success.
The southern states for the most part
confine their elections to congressman
and, true to tradition, are preparing to
return solid democratic delegations.
Every Indication points to the election
Of Joseph D. Sayers, the democratic
gugbernatorisl nominee in Texas, and
the same may be said of the candidacy
of the Frank w. Rollings, the choice
of the New Hampshire republicans.
In the always political boiling states
of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Missouri
and little Delaware there are no CUB
ernatOrial elections, but the interest in
the contests for minor state and judi
cial officers and for members OF con-
gress Is as intense as that of the ma
tioual election.
In Ohio the legislative contests are
somewhat tame because of the fact that
the legislature has already provided
for the senatorial succession.

SCARCITY OF MONEY.

The Pulaski Wa) News-Revicw says
that the gold men declare that there is
plenty Of money in circulation, but adds
as comment that while there may De
plenty of money It is not I'm circulation"
that what money we have IS congested
in the money centres. and the country
people are suffering for the lack of f."
The Times is an advocate Of the gold
standard. but The Times IS fully pre-
pared TO vouch for all our free silver
contemporary says We have written
column after column on this subject and
we have not only pointed out tho fact
which our contemporary asserts, but we
have. as We believe. suggested the true
remedy for this evil. We agree fully
with an our free silver friends in the
contention that there IS q lack Of cur
rency throughout the rural districts. but
we disagree with them as 20 the method
Of obtaining it. Admitting that the
opening Of the mints 20 the country 10
the free coinage OF silver would increase
the amount of money It ought 20 be
plain TO every man that under our pres
ent system the money would still be con-
gested in our money centres, and that
there would stin be the same dearth Of
currency throughout the rural districts.
Using a favorite illustration of the free
silver people we say that the number Of
the reservoirs might be increased in
definitely and the supply Of our water
proportionately without necessarily caus-
ing any greater supply TO the individual
consumer. The thing TO do. manifestly,
I'm order 10 increase the quantity to the
consumer is 20 extend the system OF
pipes and give each consumer the means
of tapping the reservoir. or 20 change
the figures somewhat give 10 each COM
munity its own reservoir and not let it
be dependent upon the great central re-
servoir which may be opened and closed
at the pleasure Of those who are at the
source Of supply.
1t is not necessary TO say 10 those who
have read The Times Tor tho past ten
years that our ref4cnce Is 10 local
banks Of issue. Every such bank would
be a local reservoir designed not TO sup
ply the money centre. but the people of
its own peculiar locality. Give as such
banks throughout the rural districts OF
Virginia, where the farmer may easily
convert his farm assets into cash as he
needs cash. and the very just complaint
OF the pnlasN NeMs- ReNiew win cease.
