OPEN FIELD AND A FAIR FIGHT

Mr. Henry Watterson is right in his suggestion that the "Reactionaries ' must come out in the open if they would successfully contend with President Roosevelt, says the Washington Post If there is secret conspiracy its incep- tion was mistake and perseverance in it would be blunder General Grant narrowly escaped overthrow by the Lib eral Republicans, who fought him open ly, assailed him boldly in congress, fin the press and on the stump. They nom mated the wrong man, or Grants oc- cupaney of the White House would have terminated four years earlier than it did.
 The Mugwumps, too, fought Blaine openly and beat him. There was no conspiracy, no secrecy. George William Curtis walked out of the convention with the remark, CT own everything under my hat, and it was the declara- tion of relentless war that was crowned with Mugwump victory by the mar rowest margin of all our political bat ties.
 The silver men defed Cleveland when his last administration was in it's honey. moon, and they never let up until they completely purged the party of Cleve landism at the Chicago convention of 1896. It matters not that they brought hopeless defeat ou the party They tri- nmphed in faction fight, the sweetest of all victories.

 It seems that many of the state leg islatures have spoken in the present faction unpleasantness, and all for Roosevelt, but the thing was informal In the other cases it was by regularly considered joint resolutions.

MERRITT SUES
 B|SBEE BROKER
We'll Known Duluth Broker Who Went Out of Commission During the Re cent Slump Alleges Bad Faith on the Part of Frank J. Graf of Bisbee.

A suit will be filed in the district court at Tombstone today in which Fred H. Merritt of Duluth, broker, who failed few weeks ago, will be plain tiff and Frank J. Graf of this city will be named as defendant, says the Re view.
 It is stated that the suit will be brought for the sum of $25,00
 Behind the suit is story of the all legged failure of the brokerage firm of Fred II. Merritt of Duluth to deliver to Frank ]. Graf various stocks bought at the market price during the month of January last.
 According to reports Graf bought from Merritt several thousand dollars worth of stock in January, or placed an order with him for the stock Graf maintains that Merritt never attempted to make the delivery at that time or any time since; that he did not draw upon him for the amount involved with the stock certificates attached to the draft, as is customary in such cases, and that when he was advised of the failure of the brokerage house of Mer. ritt in Duluth, that he went into the open market and bought the stock for delivery to his customers. It is con tended by Graf that at the time of the failure Merritt wired him to send him $20.000 which was to be in payment for the stock ordered in January, but had never been delivered.
 Merritt claims that Graf owes him the difference between the price of the stock ordered in January and the mar. ket price at the time of the failure.
