George B. Weston, Belchertown,
Mass: Il have voted the Democratic
ticket since Franklin Pierce was our
President, but the pull down the flag
and sneak home policy is too big a
dose, and if I live shall vote for Nc

who is willing to humiliate his country
in the eyes of the world should be

J. T. Yerkes, near Ottawa, Kan:
-Four years ago l voted for Bryan.
am satisfied with present conditions
and think a change would be disas
trous. I notice that all the Populist
predictions of four years ago have
proven false, and every promise the
Republicans made has been kept
Walter Marks, farmer near Ottawa,
Kan: Il was a Republican until four
years ago. They got me off then,
but they can't do it again. l was con-
WINGED two months after Mckinleys

teacher, and one Of the most effective
fusion workers in the campaign Of
1896: Il voted for Bryan and the other
fusion candidates. Il shall vote the

One Of the causes for my change is
the expansion issue
Chas. McCumber, Lane, Kan, far
mer: 81 voted for Bryan four years

life I'm cured
William Archer, near Ottawa, Kan,
a well-known farmer: Il have voted
the Populist ticket for ten years;
have been a Populist ever since the
party was organized. A farmer can't
afford to vote for change this year.
= am going to vote the Republican
ticket"
]. B. Whitaker near Ottawa, Kan,
farmer: Il was a Republican until ten
years ago. I left the party when
lived in Dakota and identified myself
with the Peoples party. l have son
who served in the Philippines with
Company X. Any man who reads
Gen Lawton's words to the people of
this country in which he said, If l
am killed by a Filipino bullet my
death will lie at the door Of the Fill
Pine sympathizers in America and
then votes the Democratic ticket, he
is disloyal to his country. My sons
: were all Bryan sympathizers in 1896
They are all for Mckinley this year"
E. P. Sessions, Ottawa, Kan, under
taker, said: You may put me down
as one of the men who voted for Bry-
an in 1896 and who will vote for Nc
Kinley this fall. McKinley's admin
istration has been superior in every
respect. The people do not need a
change"
O. B. Merrill, near Ottawa, Kan:
THE things we expected to happen
didn't come about Instead of disaster
we have had good times
