All this talk about the co

All this talk about the con-
gressional committee with.
drawing I. P. Campbell from
the ticket and substituting
the name of Duval is bosh.
The congressional committee
has no power to withdraw
Campbell's nomination; that
matter is strictly his own bus
mess. And if he should con-
clude to decline to stand as a
candidate, the name of Duval
would never be substituted.
His action at Great Bend has
made him unpopular with
democrats and Populists alike
and he could not receive a
respectable fraction of either
party's vote. His abuse of
the substantial democrats and
Populists of the district, af-
ter he discovered that he
could not dictate to them, was
a blunder and proves him a
tenderfoot politician. His
failure to keep his pledge
which he and his friends
made prior to the conventions.
proves that he is unworthy of
the honor which he sought
but in seeking it was
fairly defeated. If Campbell
retires from the race, which
we do not believe he will, it
would be necessary to substi-
tute some other candidate
than Duval.

the convention fraudulently,
was we'll paid for it. His &C

CongressmanLong has writ
ten to a republican constitu-
ent, in reply to a pertinent
question, that Il am certainly
in favor of all attempts to
correct determinations in
freight rates which exist in
Kansas" However, he very
wisely refrains from saying
what kind of a measure he
favors, looking toward bring
ing about such a result. He
is opposed to government
ownership of railroads-the
only sure remedy-and was
opposed to maximum freight
rates-the best temporary
remedy that has ever been
offered. Chester's strong point
is to fill his constituents with
highly favored taffy and vol
umes of empty promises
which he knows he will not
fulfill.

pers say that the Populist
convention at Great Bend did
not endorse the initiative and

vored an enlargement of the

Chester [. Longs nomina-
ton at Hutchinson last Wed.
nesday was made by acclama-
ton. W. M. Wallace was
made chairman of the con-
vention and was given a dose
of soft soap. Everything that
Long ever said or did was en-
dorsed and it was strictly a
love feast among politicians
gorging themselves at the
pie counter. Longs bench
men think they have a walk
away on account of the disa-
greement of the Populists and
democrats at Great Bend, but
they'll learn differently. The
people of the Seventh con-
gressional district have all
the high tariff, gold monomet-
allism and oppression from
the trusts they can stand, and
they are going to say SO. All
the money that the republi-
cans can send in the district
won't save Chester's scalp

judge the temper of the vo-
tiers.
