GATHERING THEIR VOTES.

1t is sad commentary on the
intelligence and patriotism of the
republican and populist parties OF
this county when few self styled
leaders spend days in secret confer
ence bartering and trading their
votes like cattle.
There has been the most open,
barefaced attempt at the barterinp
OF the peoples suffrage by a few
men bshind closed doors in Butler
that was ever known before in this
section Of the state. Since last Satur.
day steering committee composed
OF republican and middle of the
road populists have been in almost
eontinuour session. and wild rumors
OF their revolutionary proceedings
are constantly being noised abroad.
What they finally agree to do 10 q
matter that concerns democrats, who
are supporting their ticket nomi.

ATKEs0N OFF, DENTON on.

Word was received in this city on
+ Monday that W, o Atkeson had
withdrawn from the judgeship race
and the name Of q A. Denton had
been certified up to the Secretary OF
State by the populist committee TO
Fl the vacancy thus created on that
ticket. This created no great sur
prise to those who had watched the
maneuvers of those two gentle
men for some time. It was known
that Atkeson was very anxious to
get his name on therepublican ticket
aod was not back ward in making his
wishes known in that respect. Mr.
Denton was pronounced in his oppo
sitlon to Atkeson, and emphatic in
bis representations to Mr.. Graves
friends that he would prevent
such consummation. even If
he was forced to the extreme of
accepting the nomination himself
He accepted and there came
mighty change over the manners of
Mr.. Denton. He became diplomatic
and guarded III his language, and
said that A,keson was not put on
the republican ticket because of the
opposition of the St Clair and
Benton committeeman They were
seen in close consultation frequently,
and Mr.. Atkeson was convinced that
it was to the best interest of the
popullst party to have Denton's
name substituted for his own.
What were the considerations?

q fusion with republicans, whose

word-Spoils Is it possible that a
few leaders imagine that the honest
yeomsnry of Bates county who went
into that movement because OF it's
reform principles and its expressed
enmitv to all manner of frauds and
corruptions charged to the old
