The Fight Against Morrison.

The Fight Against Morrison.
The fact that the Statesman and
those who were the leading factors
in defeating ex Governor Morrison
for denomination at the close Of
his first term through the worst Of
machine methods under the old
convention system are now act
lively engaged in the effort to ac-
compIish his defeat in the present
gubernatorial contest will only
tend to strengthen his candidacy
with the people throughout the
state who believe in n square deal.
A careful study of the Statesman
attitude in the past will reveal the
fact that it has rarely if ever been
found on the side Of the people
and as consequence the vast ma
iority OF the causes it has es-
poused have met with signal
defeats.
Hon. John II. Morrison is of
the people and for the people.
When governor of the state he
stood firmly for the interest Of the
people of the state as whole. he
could not be swerved from stand
ing for their interests and because
of this, he incurred the opposition
Of number who found they
could not handle him as though
he were wax. The people, and we
mean by that those in the rural
districts who are not allied with
any machine and who do not en-
dorse corrupt machine methods
nor expect to be the benehciaries
of machine practices, are firm In
their support of Ex-Governor
Morrison and their slogan, "Hon'
est John Morrison and an honest
administration" will prevail and
land their choice in the guberna
torial chair. Indeed, it is fight
of the professional politicians ano
their organ against faithful ser
want of the people. and the people
as a whole are wide-awake to thu
condition. Therefore, while no
protesting to be either a Frophe
or the son of a prophet we predic
that the people and not the States
man and the professional polite
ians who are inspiring it in it
attacks upon the ex-governor VII
dominate in the settlement of tn
controversy. After all these years
they are thoroughly determine
to accord Morrison the squar
deal. The advantages of the oil

This contest will be decided b
the citizenship of the state an
not by the professional politician
or by an organ which is blinde
by its own spleen. The rank an

AHA! IS THIS A CONSPIRACY
 AGAINST ENGLISH

Aha! Have we discovered a deep, dark conspiracy of the Swedes against the English-speaking athletes entered in the Olympic games? Indeed, tt games were officially opened week ago, the real sport of the meet, the track and field games commence to-, day. As I have pointed out before, these contests which will make inter national athletic history are to be staged in the Biljettfersaljning. That name alone is enough to break the heart of an American or English gladiator and leave him gasping for breath. But that is not the worst. The conspiracy j goes desper. The swimming events, which also begin to- pulled off in jurgardsbrunnsviken.- Can the fish-men of Uncle Sam, or. John Bull, keep afloat in such a body of moisture. much less make a rec ord? It seems unlikely. But, cheer up! The worst is yet to come! The bicycle race. to be held tomorrow, will start at Liljenholmvagen and on the very first spurt the riders will have to negotiate the hin of Nybedabacken. And the finish will be at the Blljett- forsaljning! And what will happen to the invaders when the Swedish nasketsivagen?" l. is too sad to con- template. We can only hope for the best-jntssve ssvetsjungsken The Swedish language listens like a Hnotype-man's cuss- word.
 The Swedish program committee promised to have as few events as possible on Sundays, in deference to the American and English athletes, who are not accustomed to the idea of the Continental Sunday. So to- morrow there will be only the 190- mile bicycle race around Lake Malar; the running high jump, heats; the 10, ,000-metre flat, final heat; the final heat of the 800-metre. flat, the. Pon- tattlon, a swimming contest or two, and a few minor events. That is absolutely all, unless it should be de- -cided at the last minute to add few more sevents. The Swedish idea of Sabbath observance is suttinly very Continental. indeed.
 The athletics, swimming, fencing, gymnastic and wrestling events, com mencing today, will continue to July 15. The horse riding competition will occupy the period from July 13 to 1T. The rowing events will be decided on July Is and 19, and the yachting races on July 20 to 23
