sion in Nebraska. In 1896, it was
right and proper and the only
course, and no more earnest, pa
triotic, intelligent body of voters
ever united under one banner
than those who in '96 and the
few years following, fought to-
gether for the principles they be-
lieyed in, under the banner of flu
sion. But in the past year or two,
fusion has been farce. One party
is enough.-W. +. Cramb, In Fair
