WELL right here in Reno county is

that go to show the real character Of
the republican politicians and their

all through his administration pursued
"Chinese policy" toward all the indie

power to ruin and destroy everything

thing are true because Hendry of the
Nickerson Argosy who is the blacklist
republican left running at large, has

anyone who runs and reads may know

THE program Of the imperialist party
10 but little known and understood by
the rank and Ole Of the voters of the
republican party. A part OF their
plans have not been made public,
except in such o way as they are
allowed To drop so that one can
lead between lines. We want to be
qnoted as saying that If elected the
imperial party will not relinQuish the
island Of Cuba, or IL it does 1t will only
be a temporary step. At the first and
least trouble in the island they will
proclaim that stable government can
only exist BY the protection of Ameri-
can troops, Of course this sort of &C
tion would justify this government in
going into the Central and South
American republics in the same way
and for the same purpose, when they
may break into revolution. If IL Is
successful in Cuba that will be the
next step. The spirit Of empire and
lust for power and territory is aroused
and on fire. Conquest and militarism
and ultimately military dictator will
be the result unless the promoters of
this propaganda are severely rebuked
by the people. They will never have
a better time to do 1t than right now.
