AMMUNITION FOR THE ENEMY.


The Globe has observed with
amazement the acrimonious contro-
yersy that has been in progress
throughout the state over the guber-
Material candidates; and what is the
most dumfounding Is the fact that
the candidates DIN consideration are
members OF the same party, as are
also largely the papers which have
been dishing out the vitrolic and vi
Imperative articles in arraignment of
the opposing candidates. The repub-
lican editors undoubtedly have allow
ed themselves to be led by overzeal
BUSINESS for their favorites into ex-
treme positions from which it will be
rather difficult 1t would seem, to ex-
tricate themselves when the real
campaign against common enemy
Is on. For as the most obtuse of
us are aware, but one candidate of
the three republicans now In the field
can be nominated even under the
primary law. which will leave the
partisans of the two other candidates
to adjust themselves as best they
may to the disappointing conditions.
This means simply that they will
have to "eat crow" or bolt their
party nominee selected by the free
and unrestricted expression of the
members of their party at the primar
tnu No mill NOT hn vNlA ~
sition to find ones self in. Besides
every utterance by the republican
press derogatory to the character of
either of the candidates will be treas
ured up by the opposition press and
used as a club to swat them and the
candidate with throughout the entire
campaign. In the meantime the dem
ocrats are quietly sawin' wood and
storing up campaign material from
the unwisdom of republicans to be
used when they get ready for action,
and lending their very best efforts
to keep the republican fight under
full Roadway. There has already been
enough said and done by the repub-
lican papers to materially lessen the
chances of the present candidates,
and 1t would seem that 1t is about
time for them to take tumble to the
fact that their course IL continued
will hand the state administration
over to the democracy on a paper"
paltter at this falls eelction.
The Globe believes that Brady,
O'Neill and Clagstone are all three
good men and capable, but Governor
Brady has been tried out and found
to measure up to the standard re-
Quirements of a good state execu-
tive, while the other two simply as
pire to the higher honor of the test.
There are no good grounds for heap
ing abuse upon either of the three
gentlemen, they are all thorough
business men and representative citi-
zens, as good or better than the op-
position can find If they go over
the entire state with a fine tooth
comb. and their sterling qualities of
good citizenship should be recogniz-
ed by the press of the state at their
true value, eliciting words of praise
instead of contumely and abuse. No
