AILIN CONCERT

With one acclaim the newspapers
owned, held under mortgage or which
have sold their editorial space and opin-
ions to J. W. Babcock, together with
its managers and road agents and sub
town heelers. declare that the hand book
recently issued showing the bad record
of Congressman Babcock, Ia one tissue
Of ltas, To yell liar and heap personal
abuse has been tneir long suit through
out the cimpaign The hand hood con-
tains not subject or charge that is IN
supported by the absolute record It is
not to be wondered at that they seek to
obscure his outrageous land grabbing
and mail-stufing record. What fine
candidate would be be to stand before
the public asking the suffrages of honest
men with such a record All the pur-
chased newspapers this side of Wash
ington, and the paid road agents and
noisy government of1ice-holdefs in the
United States can not give him clean
record.

The good citizens and loyal republic
cans Of Vernon county viii not care to
be classed among those who can be in
fuenced by the use of money. Because
man possesses large wealth and is
willing to spend it freely to be elected
to a position OF influence, is no substan-
tial reason why people who believe in
right things should favor ind trust him.
The people are obliged to pay for these
extravagances in the end. The CENSOR
pleads with every republican who
stands for Governor LaFollette and the
wholesome policies advocated by him,
to attend the party caucus on Saturday,
February 27th, and see that no man is
sent to the county convention who ha s
been or il still an opposer to the things
for which the republican party has been
contending for the past -four years, every
one of which J. w. Babcock has antag-
onized. Let no man be fooled or de-
ceived by Babcock's smooth workers
and road agents, who are and have been
travelling over the country for weeks
past. They have all been trained to de-
clare that they are moi opposed to the
governor and the platform on which
the last state and legislative ticket was
elected. Be not deceived They are
seeking temporary victory, the deeper
TO run the stalwarL dagger into the
political heart of the man and the ad-
ministration that has dared to grapple
with the financial giants that have
sought to defeat all legislation intended
for the hetterment of the common peo-
pie. Among themselves they do not
hesitate to declare that the renomina-
ton Of Babcock means the blocking of
the legislation SO well begun for equal
taxation between the people and the
railroads; the defeat of the primary
election law to be voted upon the COM
ing fall, and the general humiliation Of
Governor La Toilette and his support
ers. They are willing and anxious to
sow money like chaff if their object can
be accomplished. This is no idle talel

II was hoped to settle the incident without
further publicity.
The Department will take no action on
Gov Bates's reports until the result of the
Investigation conducted by the United
States District Attorney for the District
OF Massachusetts, has been received. After
all the papers are before the Department
some communication with regard to the
incident will be made to Sir Mortimer Du..
rand, but 1t is unlikely that, as suggested
by Gov. Bates, his attention will be called
especially to the fact that Mr.. Quincy had
violated the law OF Massachusetts, and then
pleaded immunity from proseo ution by
reason OF his diplomatic standing.
The case may almost be considered a
closed one with the apology rendered by
Judge Phelps and the disclaimer Of the
Governor Of Massachusetts that there was
any intention to offend the dignity OF his
Majesty's representatives. To these will
be added an expression OF regret by the
State Department that the incident oc-
Cured. 1t Is not unlikely, however. that
Mr.. Quincy will be transferred to some
other post. as his diplomatic usefulness
has undoubtedly been impaired by his

YANKEE GUNS FOR RUSSIA.

r. 8. Darling Sues c. n. Flint and Flint &
Go. for Commissions on Sales.
Theodore s. Darling, New York man
now in the Orient. has sued Charles r.
Flint and Flint d Co. Of 25 Broad street for
Sl .l7s claimed as commission for the sale
OF rapid fire guns and shells to the Russian
Government His complaint, drawn by
the law firm OF Clifford, Hobbs, Haskell 4
Beard. SAYS that in the last days Of March
he sold for the defendant guns and ammu
milton aggregating in value SSS4 500, which,
the compliments lawyers say, came from
the American Ordnance Company OF Bridge
port.
Darling is only one Of a number Of men
acting as agents abroad for American
ordn an CO manuf actu rers. He specifies that
he sold for Mr. Flint thirty-two 6-pound
guns arc nine l4-pound guns for some s242,-
CO., with $50 projectiles per gun; 10000 steel
shells for the e-pound guns and 2,7O0 shells
for the i4-pound guns. He alleges that he
had an arrangement with Mr.. Flint by which
ali that he could get from Russ In excess
Of a certain upset price should 60 to him as
his commission. Apparently Russia was
an eager buyer in March, for Darlings
claim Tor commission is 3l,17e. Mr.. Flint
has retained Ralph Bisbee as his attorney
and has entered a general denial.
