Lind is ever elected to any office in this
state again 1t would be because he ID
not reformer in any sense of the word
could only compliment Lind in COM
parison with the very worst public Of
ficials we have ever had. If John Lind
was second Christ, he could not atone
by any act in his present executive posi-
tion for what reform has lost through
the effort to elect him and satisfy his
personal ambition. The same applies to
Bryan nationally. Reform efforts are
completely paralyzed and will continue
to be so LONG AS THE MASS OF THE
| PEOPLE ARE INDUCED TO PLACE
| ANY MAN FORWARD AS GREATER
THAN PRINCIPLE.
IL. We are pretty well divided among
various denominations.
IL. What are the addresses of our
political leaders? $$$$ wherever 5 and
cfice look brightest
IA. True reform is the ticket for
which shall vote next year.
Is. 1 PREFER THE REFERENDUM
TO ANY CONVENTION.

1T is now time that the matter of
choosing ticket for the next campaign
was being discussed. 1t is certainly
true that it will be impossible to hold
state convention that will even aproxi-
mate satisfactory or representative
character to the people, because the
railroads will make no concession for
such purpose.
I'VE do not deplore this, do not even
regret it, because, fortunately, we can
use the best of all, the referendum, to
select the candidates for all offices, from
constable to governor, in much more
satisfactory manner than if chosen by
delegate convention, where only a few
take part in naming candidates. Let us
have nominating referendum, in which
every member, every voter, chooses for
himself Who shall the candidates be?
Let every Populist think the above
matter over, make list of your choice
of candidates for the several offices and
mail it to this ofice.''
The above words, taken from the
staunchest of, the true, the Florida
World, published at Selman, Florida,
should be followed by every Populist
Send addresses to your respective or
ganizers, as published above, if you wish
to participate in the referendum.
This will cost but penny postal
Conventions cost many dollars spent for
wrong purpose. Consider the great
difference. Grasp the opportunity.
