PARKER AND DAVIS.

As predicted, the Democrats nominated Judge
Parker, of New York, for president. Parker IS
the rankest kind of gold-bug, and is hand-n-
glove with the trust magnates OF The country.
Parker nearly upset the work of the conven-
ton, after the nomination, by sending dis
patch to the managers OF the party, IL which
he stated his position on the financial question,
and practically demanding that those ideas be
incorporated in the platform. He even inferred
that unless this was done, the convention could
hunt up another candidate This dispatch
created CONSERVATION in the convention, and
there were loud demands for another candidate.
Only through the efforts of Senator Tillman
and Mr.. Bryan was trouble averted Had that
dispatch been received before he nomination,
Parker would not now be the nominee. He
drove many friends from him by this act.

TOM WATSON DEMOCRATS.

A dispatch from Emporia states that the old
line Populists and Democrats of Lyon county
have started an antParker, or, rather, Tom
Watson, movement IN that county and the
Fourth congressional district. They will carry
the anti Parker fight down TO county politics.
It is Watson all along the line with both DEM
ocrats and Populists in Lyon county. A con-
gressional convention will be called at some
time and place where Parker Democrats cannot
interfere, and candidate for congress for the
Watson crowd will be named. This movement
is likely to spread all over the state.

nominee for vice-piesdent, is another gold-bug
and defender OF trusts. Indeed, he is something
millionaire, and is in close touch with Wall
street. Among his hackers are members of the
Standard Oil Company, and he is interested in
coal-carrying roads. He is in no. sense friend
of the common people. He is an arstocrat
The old man is over eighty years of age, but
he has "bar'l," and is expected to put about
a haf-rnilion dollars into the campaign fund.
Davis is Parker's choice for running mate
What can the common people expect of such
a combination?

GENERAL BELL, of Colorado, who says he

rado calls the miners OF that state cattle, says
the Emporia Times. "He says he will drive
them all out, and then, if the people let them
come back, that's their business" Well,
wasn't General Bell cow puncher, aud isn't
he friend of Theodore? He thinks he's driv..

driven, he'll drive 'em. That's sure. He is.

THE men who are making millions by spec
ulating in the products of the farm are produc-
ing nothing, creating no wealth whatever. 1t
follows, therefore, that whatever they gain
must be taken from those who are producing
the wealth of the nation. This one little fact
sheds volume of light on the difficulty expert
enced among the farmers in making both ends
meet.-Wisconsiu Toier.,

ROOSEVELT WOULDN'T SEE. MINERS.

A delegation of miners went to Oyster Bay,
Tuesday, to appeal to President Roosevelt to
investigate the troubles in Colorado, but the
President, through his private secretary, refused
to see them. Does any one suppose that if
delegation of bankers or trust nagnates bad
called on Teddy, he would have refused to see
them? Nell, scarcely.
