the unwise course taken by the dis

1t was a lively campaign and the
Tribune is filled with items on the or
der Of the following: Beware of
fraudulent tickets. Vote only the
clean, pure white ticket This ticket
will be circulated and voted by all
who understand thoroughly their best
interests. The enemies of Bismarck
abroad have c%onspired with a certain
few in this city to down Mckenzie.
While he was hard at work in other
portions of the territory in the inter
est Of the Worlds Fair and gathering
material to make Dakota's exhibit a
success, Col. Lounsberry, Jimmy EN-
mons, Wright and others of like ilk
were treacherously conspiring to
down him. After all that Mckenzie
has done and is doing for bismarck
and Burleigh county, the hearts of
these aungrateful wretches are still
cold and poisonous. Let the major
ity for Mckenzie today be so large
the appreciation of deeds well done
by. this community will be well
proven H.. ~
Lounsberry says Mckenzie has put
in no more hours of earnest work for
Bismarck than he. Grant this to be
true. Has he accomplished as much?
Be honest. Judge a nan by deeds
done. To whom are we indebted for
the penitentiary? Williams and Nc
Kenzie. To whom are we indebted
for the capital? Does anyone sup
pose it would have been possible to
get it without a Mckenzie? In the
complications growing out Of the To-
cation of the capital at Bismarck and
the vigorous fight made by our enc
mics, who has been PIE trusted gen
eral? Who has spent his time, en-
ergy and money that Bismarck may
hold what she has and gain more?
You know it is Mckenzie. In secur-
ing legislation favorable. to the Mis-
souri, slope, in influencing capital to
seek investment in this region, in en-
couraging manufacturing interests,
in securing other railroads and en-
terprises of all sorts, who can do
o than Alexander Mckenzie?
Talk is cheap; writing is easy. In
Mckenzie weShave a man who Jumps
into line of duty and never shrinks;;
a man who surmounts difficulties
and rides to success. The cry Of
the enemies Of Bismarck in various
portions of Dakota is Down Nc
Kenzie." Why? Because he has
fought for this county and won lau-
rels for her people. Can you now at,
ford to weaken the influence Of such
a ma by casting votes enough against
HIM to even give rise to a suspicion
abroad that Mckenzie is unpopular
at home? Friends of LonnsberTy
who are friends of Bismarck will
weigh well these arguments CARE
fully, and not throw their votes
away
