populist principles will be very little
affected thereby. Men who have come
to thoroughly believe in the necessity
of the public ownership OF railroads,
telegraphs and telephones, who see
danger TO the republic in the great
accumulation of wealth in few hands,
who denounce the granting OF special
privileges to the rich, who revolt at
the extortions of the trusts, will not
be induced by any such small trick
to put their votes where they will be
counted for plutocracy.

FUkION.

There is just one way to carry this
state against the republicans. Let
but one electoral ticket be put up, con-
sisting of Watson and Tibbles electors.
Let the democratic convention nomi-
nate the same men or none at ali. II
that is done, neither The Independent
nor any honest populist will object to
putting former Bryan democrat at
the head of the ticket and scatter
others like him all down the line,
provided always that each of them will
give a pledge Of honor that they will
neither vote for, nor support Parker
and Davis With that sort of FLU
sion" the state~can be carried against
the republicans by $1,000 majority and
large majority can be secured in the
legislature. That is only asking OK
actly what the populists Of this state
did for Bryan in 1900 The populisJs in
that year named the same electoral
ticket that the democrats did, with
the understanding that if they were
elected, they would vote for the dem
ocratic nominees for president and
vice president. The populists did not
lose their organization nor wreck
their party by doing it and the demo-
Gratis will not by doing the same thing
now. The populists only ask the dem
ocrats to do the same thing that the
populists did in order to cooperate
with them. Populists do not ash any
thing more than what they them
selves have given under similar cir
cumstances 1t is perfectly useless TO
ask for any other mode Of cooper a.
