Is He the Same Man?

In referring to Carl G.. Sherwood's
letter the Argus-Leader says: "Sam
Elrod is the same man he was when
Mr.. Sherwood introduced him as a
candidate for the position he now
holds"
Is this tru& At that time Mr.. Ell
rod was untried in the way of political
responsibility. He had never been
put to the test. Left alone to follow
the dictates of his own conscience, un-
trammeled by the network of ring rule
Sam Elrod might have proven a salts
factory official, but he had not entered in
upon the duties of governor before the
practical politicians" had him bound
hand and foot. One false step led to
another until he no longer dared raise
his voice against the mandates of the
''boss."~
When Carl Sherwood eulogized Mr..
Elrod he did not know that his fellow
townsman would be so easily led
astray. At that time the governor had
not declared that the people did not
know what they wanted when they
asked for the submission Of the pri-
mary bill. Mr.. Elrod did not know
that his "boss" was opposed to the
petition when he declared that "the
primary petition must be favorably
considered" When the ''boss" said
the bill must not pass, Mr.. Elrod, in

was a wife fit to bear that noble title, who
did not wish to wear womanhood'S most

otherwise happy, fall short of wedlock's
greatest happiness because they are child

There is no intention on the part of
the anti-machine Republicans to Grip
pie and retard the progress OF the rail-
roads. They are a Necessary quantity
to the u~pbuilding of any state, but the
railroads should pay a just proportion
of the taxes and carry freight at a rea-
sonable rate. The railroads are not
to blame if they ask high prices for
transporting produce and goods and
try to dodge taxes. The people are to
blame for not regulating these matters.
All the people want is justice to all
men and fairness to both the state and
railroads.

Substitution by Committee OT the Candidate

Albert W. Ransom, a lawyer, filed with
the Board Of Elections yesterday a protest
against putting the name Of Dennis Murphy
on the Tammany ticket for member of
Assembly in the Twenty-first district.
Murphy was nominated by petition a. the
candidate of the Independence League.
The Tammany convention nominated Will
lam II. Beers, but he declined, and then the
Tammany committee substituted Murphy.

amended, provides hat when A vacancy
exists il shall not he lawful for any conf
mittee on vacancies to substitute the name
of a candidate Of another party for the
same office. 1t being the intention Of III is
act that where a candidate Of one party
il nominated and placed on the ticket Of

nomination must be made at the time and
in the manner provided for making original

by the situation created in the election

At the meeting last night at Camp Hughes
two Hearst men. Alexander c. Young and

his address. The great crowd in the tent
was in an uproar in a minute, kissing and

pose Of breaking them UP.
