What is Longs Record?

When a congressman is select
ed by the people he is supposed
to represent his district; to do
something for the people of his
own district. What has Chester
[. Long done for the 7th con-
gressional district of Kansas?
Will his friends tell us one thing
he has done in an official capaci-
ty for the people who elected
him?
In the last congress, the 56th,
he introduced just 112 bills.
Quite an introducer. And he got
three of the 112 through con-
gress; one in relation to Usage
Indian lands, and two private
pension bills. What "a great
thing he has been for the people
of the 7th district.
Yes, he made a reciprocity
speech, and he cast his vote
against the beet sugar interests,
and he poses as the especial
friend Of the president-an n d
wants to be United States Sena-
tor.
Let us have no more of his
posing and smhaing. Let us
send to congress a man of the
people, an earnest, conscientious
humanitarian; a man who will
keep the interests of his people
the people of the 7th district-in
mind first, last and all the time,
and who will not attempt to use
the suffrages of his people as a
stepping stone to that aristo-
cratic body, the Q. S. Senate.
Vote for Vernon J. Rose. the
democratic candidate for con-
gress, and you will be support

the claims of his constituency

integrity and complete fitness
for the Office possessed by Mr..
Mosley. Franklin knows nothing
about either Clark, Mosley or
Brinkerhoff, as he, Franklin, is a
'stenderfoot'' in this county, a
recent arrival who could have
had no opportunity to know
what "the voters of this judicial
district had been doing ''for
many years." Hence, we say he
did not write the fulsome article
which Townsley credits to ga
democratic paper, but printed
it for a price.
We do not believe that the
honest voters of this county
no matter what their political
belief-will be misled by the
statements of these desperate
apologies for "moulders of pub
lie opinion. We believe that
their sense of fairness, of honesty
and Justice will lead them to
register a most vigorous protest
against such kind of campaign
ing, and to support Tom Mosley
for the judgeship.

The DEMOCRAT believes in con-
sistency in all things-in politics
as well as anything else. We des-
pise a two-faced individual. In
this connection we want to ask
the voters-especially of Hois-
ington and vacinity-what they
think of a man who will come
out week after week in support

If THE statement is true (and
it comes from pretty reliable
authority that a certain repub-
lican candidate for a judicial
position has placed with a promi-
nent republican in Hoisington
800 to be used in buying drinks
for the north side voters, then
indeed have politics reached a
low level in the minds of men who
should be above such venality.
We hope it is not true; but the
men whose names are connected
with the trans action know
whether or not it is true, and it
is up to them to affirm or deny.
The voters of the north part of
the county will know too, whether
their votes-that God-given right
which should be as sacred as the
right of religion-are valued at
so many dollars worth of beer
or whiskey. Watch the outcome.l

"The following article relative
to Judge BrinckerhOff, is from
the Hoisington Dispatch, dem
ocratic paper" :"-Great Bend Tri-
bune. of last week.
Following the above introduc-
tory, the Tribune reproduces an
article headed '"The Judgeship"
from the Hoisington Dispatch,
evidently written by the republi-
can candidate for Judge and it's
insertion in the Dispatch PAID
FOR in cold cash.
In view of the course of the
Dispatch editor thus far in this
campaign we were not surprised
to see him support Brinkerhoff.
But we hardly thought that
good and sanctimonious model
'ofchristianity, the present editor
of the Tribune, would so deliber-
ately lie by stating that the
Hoisington Dispatch is "a demo-
cratic paper" The Dispatch
has never claimed to be a demo-
cratic paper, has never shown
any of the ear-marks of true
democracy. and the Judge knows
that as we'll as he knows that he
no longer bores the public at
Great Bend as the misfit P. M.
He also knows that the editor
of the Hoisington Dispatch is of
that unstable, unreliable and
unregenerate class of mer-
cenary fellows who try to be call
things to all men," but who hold
the confidence of none; who "has
a.price," and is willing to injure
his best friends if the other fellow
will only ''put up the price,
Both the editors of the Tribune
and Dispatch know that Brink
erhoff is no more like Judge An
sci r. Clark in capability, cour-
age for the right, or fairness in
political course, than day is like
night.
Both of them know that the
republican candidate for Judge,
in this campaign poses as pro-
hibitionist in Rice county, and
as an anti-prohibitionist in Bar
ton county-and they know that
Judge Clark would never stoop
to that subterfuge in politics.
Both of them know that Brink
erhoff received the republican
nomination through a slick
scheme of certain republican
politicians in Barton county
whose only aim was to prevent
Nimocks from getting that nomi.
nation and that Brinkerhoff was
aware of these same schemes
long before their convention was
held. Judge Clark would never
have entered into any such
scheme.
Townsley at least knows that
Judge Clark has expressed his
perfect confidence in the ability

SHALL WE BE s1LEHT.

Republican editors and speak
ers over the State are much exer-
cised over the fact that the Fusion
State Committee has not answer
ed the various charges which
have been preferred by the Bailey
gang against Mr.. Craddock's
private history of some eighteen
or twenty years ago. The man.
ayers of the fusion campaign are
aware that to be drawn into ex-
plantations of political roorbacks
and campaign lies is exactly
what the Republican managers
wish to force them into, thereby
binding the voters to the main
question. taxation. In a cam
paign of that sort, the managers
of one political party can keep
their opponents busy doing
nothing but answering carefully
concocted and highly colored
stories. 1t is due our people,
however, to know that every one
Of the stories that have been
Matched up on Mr.. Craddock were
hashed over in the campaign Of
last year, in Kansas City, Kan
sas, in an attempt to defeat Mr..
Craddock for Mayor of that city.
Mr.. Craddock made no defense,
but continued his affirmative
campaign, relying on his friends
to uphold his good name, and
the result was that he carried
every Republican ward in the
city. Mr.. Craddock's action in
every case was completely vindi-
Gated, and the people of Kansas
City, Kansas, have placed great
er confidence in his honesty, in
tegrity, and ability than ever be-
fore.
Defamation of character is the
weapon universally used by the
corpo ra tions in every fight
against those who espouse the
cause of the people. The people
are, however, interested in the
tax question; they have become
convinced that they are being
robbed by the corporations.
Every district and county in the
state shows evidence that such
is the case, and to revert to a
campaign of personalities and
explanations as the Republican
managers wish us to do, would
drown the real issues of the cam
paign:-
The people of Kansas will re-
fuse to be stampeded from the
man who has come up from
among them to boldly, fearlessly
and courageously champion
their cause. He is a man that
money will not buy, and whom
no corporation can intimidate.
He stands for the rights of the
people, and his enemies and the
enemies of the people will resort
to any means, however foul, to
defeat him. There are floods oi
evidence in the possession of the
Fusion State Committee, show
ing the character of Mr.. Bailey.
which if printed would shake the
state to it's very center. Mr.
Bailey's personal character is
his weakest point of attack, and
his history is redolent with es
capades and acts of the lowest
character, but in continuation
of the policies outlined at thu
4 inception of this campaign, thu
managers of Mr.. Craddock's can
vas have steadfastly refused te
take up these personal matters
and have continued to educate
the people along taxation lines
