Dirty Republican Trick.

One of the dirtiest discourteous
tricks perpetrated by the Republican
party during the present political cam
paign, was to refuse John Sparks.
Prof. John E. Bray, G. F. Ta,bo. and
Hon H. F. Bartine the use of the
Miners Exchange hall in TOnopah
for addressing the people OF that
place on political issues The meet
ing had been advertised. to take place
in the hall on a certain date, but when
the speakers arrived bare quorum
of members under instructions from
the Republican committee coupled the
hall under the prestige of holding a
special meeting, and refused to allow
the Fusion party candidates the pri-
vilege of speaking there. and they
we're compelled to postpone their meet
| ing on that account.
