REPUBLICAN, TICKET.
NEXT TUESDAY.

The voters of the United States
will next Tuesday, the 9th inst,
again have the privilege of express
ing their choice for president and
vice president of the Nation. The
issues of the campaign have been
thoroughly discussed, and but few
voters, it is safe to say, are now
ION the fence" As they think to-
day, so will they. as a rule, vote
next Tuesday. Supporters of the
republican standard bears will go
10 the polls backed by a9enerally
satisfactory condition-not an ex-
ploded, shallow or dangerous
theory. -Four years ago the con-
test was waged squarely on the
money question, and "free and un-
limited coinage of silver at I6 to 1"
was defeated by tremendous ma
jority. The past four years have
proven the wisdom of the people in
making that decision. While Mr..
Bryan and his chief supporters are
unwilling to give the present ad-
ministration credit for the existing
prosperity, or any portion thereof,
they have never attempted to ex-
plain why disaster does not accom-
pany the republican policy, as they
predicted four years ago. The
reader is kindly requested to give
this point another thought before
voting. If the policy of the pres
ent administration is all wrong,
why isn't the country in the savage
embrace Of another panic such as
prevailed during the last democratic
administrations If policy is
wrong, 1t must be harmful; if it
isn't harmful, wherein is it wrong?
In predicting all kinds Of disaster
four years ago should the republic
an patty be successful, Mr.. Bryan
simply proved that he is neither a
sound reasoner nor reliable politi-
cal weathercock. A mans political
faith should be founded upon what
he believes TO be best for himself.
He should profit by experience.
The country is now prosperous,
and even those persons who are
not willing to give the present. ad-
ministration credit should be un-
Wiling to vote for a change that
might result in another period like
that from '93 10 90, One thing is
certain; The present administra-
ton hasn't produced hard times,
and thousands who voted for Bryan
tour years ago have lost faith in
him because of the utter failure of
his predictions, y good majority
Of the voters Of Lincoln county

ON GEORGETOWN FIELD.
Princeton TO Meet the Blue and Grey
Tomorrow.

The victorious Georgetown nine will have
as opponents tomorrow the strong Prince
ton College team. Like old Yale Princeton
always has very fine team aud this sea
son il is one Of the strongest that has ever
represented the orange and black George
town will therefore have to play an eX-
tremely fine game to defeat the Tigers aud
this they intend to do. On the other hand.
the Tigers are thirsting for revenge for the
defeats which Georgetown thrust upon her
last year. and then. again. Princeton de-
sires to defeat the locals because George
town yesterday melted out defeat to Yale.
So far this season the Princeton team has
met and defeated three Well-knOwn college
teams Their opening game was with Rut-
gers College. whom they defeated by the
score Of Is to 3. securing seventeen hits
of Rutgers star pitcher. Last Saturday
they met and easily defeated the strong
Fordham team The feature Of the game
was the pitching Of Hildebrand. who will
be remembered as having occupied the box
against Georgetown last year
AS for. Georgetown Coach Bradley has
succeeded in bringing the team into cham
pionship trim every man being in the best
possible form. As Princeton possesses an
unusually large number Of supporters and
friends. a very large crowd will no doubt
be drawn out to the Georgetown campus.
The game should prove one Of the mos
exciting Of the season. and will in all prob
ability be a pitchers battle, with Hide
brand and Blewett as the opposing twirlers.
