The Spring Hill New Era, one
of the strongest Repub lican pap
ers in eastern Kansas, is guilty OF
the following treason: 1--WE no
tice that there is a great deal of
talk about saving the Republican
state ticket this fall. There is
no Republican state ticket. The
railroads and grafters nominated
a ticket AMI are trying to fool the
Republican voters by calling it a
state ticket; but the whole thing
is rotten and should be buried so
deep that the stencil will not be
offensive to decent people. If
this be treason, make the most
of it,
