the nominee of the republican party
for governor because of his vacillating
and weak conduct on the merger ques-
tiOn.
We favor the enactment of pri-
mary election law for the nomination
Of all public omcers, and, we denounce
boss rule as destructive and un-
American.
We favor the adoption Of such legis-
lation as shall repeal the s0-called fel-
low-servant law In this state.
We favor just and equitable taxa
tion Of all property in this state, and
we condemn the republican party for
its failure to tax property of corpora.
tions on the same basis as other prop.
erty is taxed, and recommend that all
property be taxed on the basis OF its
market value.
We are heartily in favor of the in,
itiative and referendum, and favor the
passage Of a law that will enable the
people to institute and control legisla-
tion.
We condemn the republican party
for its failure to enforce the prohibi-
tion law, and we recognize the right
of the people to have chance to
change the laws of this state, and we
therefore favor the resublnission of this
law to the people, that they may
change the present system either by
the adoption Of a state dispensary sys-
TEN on the Gottenburg plan, or local
option by townships, cities or villages,
and we favor the enactment of laws
in that direction.
Ever mindful Of the duty Of all citi-
gens to favor good government and
economy in taxation and protection of
the sacred rights Of the people, we
present the foregoing principles and
platform to the people of this state,
and ask the voters, regardless of all
former political Affiliations, to unite
with us in the election of our ticket,
pledging our candidates for the carry
ing out of these much-needed reforms
ip the government Of this state.

They want to Meve Linton.

1h8y "unG 30 N2OV0 AvuSOus
Anew town site is being laid out
about a half-mile east Of Linton. Ef=
forts are being made by the town-site
nroprietors to get Linton business men
to move up there. The Record be-
lieves that the latter would be very
foolish to do so. or course, the town.
site people are not to be blamed for
attempting to make something out Of
their investment. At the same time,
to many Of the business men it means
~ heavy sacrifice to move their build-
ings and buy a lot or two at the new
town site. We. believe the business
men Of Linton hold the winning hand
In this matter. A large proportion Of
the volume of traffic comes in from
the west. Elevators are in. business
only two or three months of the. year,
and the grain-buying business jsabout
the only business that must needs be
located near the track. Travelling
men say that they know of no other
town In the state where the merchants
sell on a smaller margin of profit than
they do here, and new firms will have
trouble in getting their trade away
from them. Every farmer we have
talked with expresses sympathy with
the men who have invested-some of
them all they have-in Linton. OF
conrse there is but little sentiment in
business matters, but those here will
stand as good or better show than
new firms locating in "East Linton"
providing conditions as to prices are;
equal. True, the town-site company,
owns most of the land around Linton;
but there is enough still in private
bands to furnish business locations for
years t. come. Again, if one business
man moves, what assurance has he
that others will do the same? And
is it not possible that he would find
himself very lonesome at the new
town? The Record believes that
Linton business men control the sit
nation If they unitedly resolve. to stay
right here.

MADISON BOYS VICTORIOUS.
Win Two Games of Baseball from
Lake City Team Seriesof
Three Games Completed.

At last we are enabled to chronicle a
victory for a Madison baseball team.
True, the victory does not belong to
the first nine but shereis glory enough
In the mere fact that our boys have won
out in two games daring the season,
and the consequence is that baseball
stock has taken q decided step upward
and the prospects are that during the
rem ainder OF the season our people will
be permitted 10 witness several games.
Several weeks ago the second nine
of this city went iown 10 Lake City IN
response to challenge from the team
there and came hack home badlywhipped
out. Not discouraged, however, they
arranged for secqpd game with the
Lake CITY lads which was pulled of at
the grounds in THE city last Thursday
afterpoOn. II was good game and
was witnessed by large number Of our
people who materially assisted by their
presence and encouragement 10 carrying
the day for Madison by a score of S to J.
Not until the very last half Of their last
inning did Lake City succeed In sending
a man across the home plate and scoring
a run. The feature of the game was
the excellent work,of Irvine Mcclellan
behind the bat, He Is awonder il
cutting off base runners at second anC
the runner who succeeds Ia stealing
second base on him must be good one
Wordsworth pitcheda good game an,
did some heavy work with the stick
The Lake City boss were clearly out
classed but they we're plucky and pu
up some snappy playing. Not conten
with the defeat 81 Thursday the remain

played which alsoresulted IN victor
