July ID: Having eaten up everything
eatable in Washington, Mr.. Buchanan
has returned to eat up the opposition
to his denomination to congress. It 10
observable that while several other
members of congress are still strug-

gested session Mr.. Buckman has
finished his work and come home.
This indication that the sixth member
is q ''sooner' will not be lost on the
opposition. It will take notice that it
is going against man who not only
can get everything his district has
coming, but get it before congress
adjourne.
Tais is also a valuable argument
for Mr.. Buckman's friends in the

It Is not TO be supposed that Mr..
Buchanan neglected his duties in bur-
rying from Washington before such q
little matter as the meat inspection
bill the rate bill and others had been
agreed upon. The bosses Of congress
probably excused him on the ground
that the fate of these bills would be
the same whether he went or stayed.

Akeley Herald July 20: We heartily
recommend Chas. A. Liadbergh to
the voters and the entire populacs of
the Sixth District as just the man to
represent the people in congress in the
coming session. he has the same
ideas as tie greater majority of the
people who like Square Deal and
if elected he will see to it that Justice
is done to all and not only to a chosen
few.

21st, 1898: The Staples Tribune has
the following: Buchanan is to run
Independent, and he and his fellows
imagine that he will pull large per
cent Of the Republican vote, as we'll as
a maj >rity Of the Democratic and Po-

because he was defeated in the Re-
p7blican convention. he will certain

The above article and prediction of
the Staples Tribune and reprinted by

cept for the calipre of the man who
was running against him.

This is true every word of it, but

and Fuller was never known to pass
up a good thing eve, though at a
sacrifice of honor, integrity or-oh.
