SHAFROTH WINS


over the nomination for governor
will go down in history as battle
royal. On the one side was ar
rayed the money power, lead by
its ablest generals and a commissary
filled to over. flowing with all that
cheers the hearts of valient sol.
diers. On the other side, was ar
ray ed raw recruits from the fields,
the shops and the counters, fred
by the spirit of patriotism, and
every soldier a general. The i-sue
was: Shall the people, or the cor
poratio 8 rule? And, wonderful
to relate, the people won for Shat
roth or what he stands for by
the small margin of q votes.
Money galore and promises of
place caused many delegates to de-
sert their col stituents, but there
were enough tried and true to save
the day.
On the first ballot the vote was
5G4 for Shafroth to 537 for Jetfer-
son.
With the nomination of the gov
ernor pandemonium broke loose.
The convention stood up and
cheered for several minutes, the
galleries joining in and causing
the uproar to become deafening.
The governor was found and
brought to the stage and bowed his
acknowledgements to the conven-
ton.
The balance of the ticket was
likewise nominated by the insur-
gents. Wherever the machine
showed it's head, i was knocked
down by blows from the progress.
Two years ago the republican
machine assisted the democrats in
the state campaign and secured
the election Of Charles Hughes to
the United States senate 1t is
not improbable that both ma
chimes will now line up with the
republican party at its convention
next week. Corporations have no
politics, no conscience and no
souls. They are for the man or
the party that best serves them.
