PoPULIST TICKET.
Watson. of Georgia, for President and TibbeIs
for Vice President.

Springfield ILL.,, July 6.-Thomas E.
Watson of Georgia for president and
Thomas Tibbles of Nebraska for vice
president were nominated yesterday
Dy the populist national convention.
The names of William V. Allen of
Nebraska and Samuel w. Williams of
Indiana were also placed before the
convention for president but before the
list OF states had been completed in
the roll call their names were with
drawn and Watson was nominated by
reclamation. Former Senator Allen
made good his word that he would not
enter into any scramble for the noLni-
nation, and while the nominations
were being made he twice Instructed
the chairman of the Nebraska delega-
ton to say that his name must not go
before the convention. In the face Of
this, however, he received several
votes.
Whether Mr.. Watson will accept the
nomination or not no one in the con-
ventiOn seemed to know, and all efforts
to secure some definite information
from Mr.. WatsOn's friends failed. Wat.
son was quoted as saying that If the
democrats at ST. Louis nominated
Hearst he would support him for presi-
dent. Williams OF Indiana received
only a few votes and soon withdrew,
moving to make Watson's nomination
unanimous. There were five nomiDa.
tions for vice president-Thomas H.
Tibbles of Nebraska, Theodore B.
Rynder Of Pennsylvania; l.. IL. Wei
Ter of Iowa; George F. Washburn of
Massachusetts, and Samuel W. Will
liams Of Indiana. The two latter de.
clined and TIbbles received practically
all the votes on the first ballot.
Former Congressman E. F. Riddle
of Kansas attempted to secure the
postponement Of the nomination of a
ticket until after the st. Louis con-
ventiOn. but the convention promptly
tabled his resolution.
After tho convention adjourned a
meeting of the national committee was
held. James II. Farris of Joliet, H.,
was elected chairman, Charles o. De-
France of Lincoln Neb., secretary, and
George f. Washburn of Boston, treas
urer.

THE FACTS OF THE KNOX CASE.

The administration organ that de.
clareS the trusts secured the re.
moYal of Mr.. Knox from the cabinet
because they were afraid of his anti
trust crusade, are either foolish or
imagine the people to be fools. This Is
the plain English of it. AS attorney
general Mr.. Knox has refused to use
the best and the chiefest weapon in the
antitrust arsenal--the criminal clause
OF the Sherman law. He has refused
to useIevldence of criminal conspiracy
provided him by real opponents Of the
tr1sts. In fact, he has absolutely re-
fused to do his sworn duty, and tried
to deceive the people with silly bluff
or two with in1unctiOns to which no
one paid the least attention. Even
the great merger suit was more bluff"
than fact, because 1t was not followed
up and carried to its logical and legal
conclusion. That would have landed
some gentlemen in the penitentiary
who are expected to contribute very
literally to the 6. o. p. campaign fund.
Mr.. Knox was made senator because
Mr.. Frick, Mr.. Cassatt and other trust
magnates realized the necessity Of
strengthening their senate defenses.
and knew that it would be easy to Sc.
cure an attorney general quite as
capable as Mr.. Knox of dong absolutely
nothing Commoner.

The republicans of Colorado be-
lleve in confscation. They con-
fiscated the county officers at the
point of the gun and conhscated
the stocks of goods belonging to
the miners union. Now hear these
murderers and robbers howl against
the Socialists for being in favor of
conilscation. All that the working
class has created in the last
century has been conhscated by
the capitalists.-Appealt to Reason.
Barbour County index. [volume] (Medicine Lodge, Kan.) 1880-current, 1904-07-13

IT is impossible for a .conscien-
tious and upright man to read a
full description of the Colorado
slaughter and subsequent outrages
In that state, and then vote the
republican ticket headed by Gov.
Peabody. One can not compre-
bend how barbarous and cruel an
affair it was until he reads a com
plete history of it.
Barbour County index. [volume] (Medicine Lodge, Kan.) 1880-current, 1904-07-13

THERE is both socialist and a
socialist labor ticket in the field.
Eugene Y. Debs is the socialist
candidate for president and Charles
II. Corregan of New York is the
standard bearer for the socialis t
labor party. If these two
parties and the peoples party
would get together under one
banner they might make some
kind of showing but they can't
accomplish anything divided into
so many factions.

THERE is great deal of roar
ing among Barber county demo-
Gratis over the result of the national
convention but there is at least one
man in Medicine Lodge whom the
ticket suits to a dot. 1t is Capt. |.
L. Brady. Capt. Brady was Park
er man when his name was first
mentioned and he talked Parker
all the time. He has a right to

HENRY ALLEN and D. r..
Anthony didn't get much encour-
agement from the supreme court.
The court upholds the constitu-
tionality of the contest board and
declines to go into the merits of
the case unless fraud can be shown
on the part of the Board which
decided in favor of Curtis and
Bowersock. Allen and Anthony
will try to do this but it is general
~ believed that they will fall
down.

KANSAS has law that prohibits
the name OF candidate from ap-
pearing under more than one head
on the official ballot. Suppose
two national parties should nomi-
nate the same man, what would
the federal court do with the Kan
SaS law?-Lawrence Gazette.
The federal court would probably
put that internal law to sleep, and
authors of it should be subject to the
like treatment.-Pratt Union.

The heartrending appeals which
are now being made by David B.

THE prohibition candidate for
clerk of the district court says he
was attacked by an army of
chiggers recently. The fact that
he is supposed to have conscientious
scruples against the popular
remedy for bites, probably is what
nerved the chiggers to action.

has been known for a week that the
change would be made. Mr.. Weir is
an old soldier. a member of Lincoln
post, and has lived in Topeka for
many years.
The case of Philip Sprague is a
very sad one. For the past Is years
he has been janitor at the city hall.
Each succeeding administration has
kept him in his place, because he was
a deserving man, who did his work
well. He has only one arm, and was
a veteran of the civil war. Almost a
year ago, the stump of his arm com
menced to give him great deal of
pain, and it was necessary for him to
have an operation performed to re-
move a piece of the bone. The opera
ton was performed, but Mr.. Sprague
has never fully recovered from it. The
shock was too much for his system.
For a long time he was confined to
again, but unable to work. All this
time, his work as janitor at the city
hall was being done by his daughters.
1t became necessary, however, for the
city to have some one in the position
who could be down at the city hall at
nights to see that the committee
rooms were lighted up when neces-
sary. Mayor Bergundthal was there
fore obliged to appoint a new janitOr.
The city does not provide two salaries
for the position of janitor, and poor
old Philip Sprague may have a hard
time of It in the future.
