HOW TO WIN.
Other Democratic Papers Fall
ing in Line With the News.
From Paducan News }


The News was the first Democrats
paper IN the State which supported the
Goebel election law TO demand that It
be made non partisan in the interest Of
the party. We were assaulted when We
had the courage TO do it by number Of
Democratic papers in the State. but not
a single paper undertook 10 answer our
arguments. Now the entire Democrat
ic press of the State with here and there
an exception has taken the same posi-.
ton as the News. Here is sample
from two OF the papers who supported
Goebel for the nomination aud insisted
that an endorsement OF the Election
law be made part of the platform last
year.
In addition to the almost universal
demand for harmony candidate
There Is also a general desire among
Democrats that the Objectionable fea-
lures OF the election law be removed by
amendments. The original purpose OF
the election law was to remove frauds
and secure honest fair elections and o
fair division OF officers. In many r..
spects che present law is better law
than the old one, that placed unlimited
power in the hands of a county judge.

They sat in tkc gallery and watched the dancers. Neither had gone out often with his wife. They were prosperous enough in 5usi- ness. but little shy on social amcni- tics. If an insult was to be resented both or either of them would know just what to do at any spot in the road. When one of the women faint ed from sutfocating atmosphere of the overloaded room both of them looked as if they didn't know what on earTh to do. The pudgy man knew he didn't khow what to do under such com Tlcated circumstances, and he turned helrlessly to his wide-chested friend
 "What do you think he would better do nOw?" he asked, pla;ntively
 A dozen other women had gathered around the swooning woman. and were flaming her and pouring water on her forehead. The wide-chested man knottcd his brows in thought. and then said:
