pEcullaR CAMPAIGN rAc1lcs.

Some of the methods adopted to
/ arouse voters and to enlist their inter-
q est In the present campaign are pecu-
( liar. to say the least They are intend
ed to appeal to the desire to be amused
rather than to an intelligent inquiry af-
ter political truths. They appeal to
popular audiences in many places. Is
this sign of political progress OF
merely an evidence Of necessity In an
I apathetic campaign? It would seem to
30 the latter.
Illustrations of these unusual meth
DDS may be found in the campaign be-
Ing conducted by Mayor Tom john
spn, OF Cleveland, whose circus tent eff
fort Is one OF the interesting features
of the contest in Ohio, in which he
seeks to defeat the republican ticket
/ Il Is now said that Johnson employs
several ''cappers.. who travel about
with him. and, under the guise Of re-
publicans, interrupt Mr.. Johnson in the
course OF his speeches. Mr.. johnson
knows just when the interruptions are
to come, and just what the questions to
be asked are. He has carefully pre-
pared his replies, and goes at his ques-
TONERS IN q perfect storm of oratorical
fury. much to the delight of his demo-
cratic audiences. who believe they have
: seen their champion utterly confound
the opposition. This is nearly equal to
q prohibition debate where a dummy il
put up on the other side to be similarly
discounted.
Another method is the employment
& OF vaudeville, such as has become ia
miliar In Montana. In the present cam
paign in that state, r. Augustus Heinze,
Senator Clark's fractional opponent in
the Montana democracy, has been
stOrming up and down the Yellowstone
+ valley In q special car, accompanied by
4 . troupe OF vaudeville singers and per-
formers, whose songs and antics attract
the: crowd while they awaken the de-
rision OF more intelligent people.
Such tactics proceed from very low
estimate of popular concern In the im-
portant sphere of political action.

Slayton, the socialist candidate for
governor in Pennsylvania, that Mr.
Baer's famous divine rights letter is a
plagiarism of one of the famous decla-
rations of King George Ill of England
to the American colonists. Mr. Slaytoil
has found passage in King Georges
declaration which corresponds closely
to the noteworthy passage of Mr. Baer's
letter and he has presented them to the
public in the following deadly parallel:

The conclusion OF tnlS seeming pa
giarism might be that Mr.. Baer has
been deep student of divine rights as
exemplified in the careers of the ex-
ponents of that idea in the far past.
But why he should stop with King
George, who merely claimed to be an
earthly representative of divinity, Is
rather strange. A few centuries fur
Their back Mr.. Baer might have found
rulers who claimed divinity for them

finale to King Georges claims that

THIRD DISTRICT CANDIDATE,
TClarion Democrat.1

Ephriam j. Dean, Anti Monopoly
candidate for congress, spoke from the
sidewalk at this place, Thursday ev-
ening of last week. A number heard
him and he was listened to respectfully
lin pity at the wreck of a once great
mind. Mr.. Dean was once brilliant
man, scholarly and eloquent, but BROOD
ing over wrongs and injuries mostly
imaginary, has unbalanced him men,
tally. 1t is n defect in our ballot law
that a man can have his name placed
upon the ballot so easily. A candidate
for congress should be required to pre-
sent a petition of 100 names from each
county in the district, when he Is put
on in that way,-enough to show that
there is desire for his candidacy. The
extra column on the ballot for Mr.. Dean
will cost several hundred dollars ex-
ira in this district, and two years ago
he had twenty votes out of about 49,
900. Every two years we are presented
with the spectacle of this poor old
mental wreck, tramping the district and
making himself ridiculous, and 1t seems
q great pity. II he have friends they
should care for him. He Is particu-
larly after Gov. Boies this year. Years
ago Gov. Boies was counsel In case at
law in which Mr.. Dean figured. He
was on the other side and won the case
as he had quite habit of doing. That
was all, but the diseased mind of Dean
row fancies it a great wrong done him.
He Is also very bitter toward the papers
who have dubbed him Crazy Dean,
and there is nothing manly or dignified
in the use of such epithets. The spec
tacle OF man who formerly lowered
above his fellows, would excite only
compassion and charity in broad
minded man. 1t Is case for pity, not
rtbaldry Of vituperation.
