believe that it was because everything

political opportunist, as is shown by
his history, because he has the Ger

that he may have been commanded to
attend by the Hearst satellites in this
city, altho he had no opposition in the
party to which he has latterly attach
ed himself, and which he himself sup
ported in the senate so as to obtain
gifts at the White House. He did not
have confidence enough in his hold on
the people to be confident of reelec-
ton. and SO he sought the support of
the Black Hearst and the Damned

against the declaration of war. He
voted for an amendment to prevent the
sending to France of our glorious
army, which in six months has des-
troyed the supposedly uncomfortable
armies of the kaiser, and has them

voted against compulsory military ser

empting conscientious DIRECTORS" He
voted against the whole plan under
which our army was organized. and is
now operating. He supported pro-

has voted against every act intended
to maintain this nations rights against
the aggressions of Teuton power. He
has voted against every measure of
preparation for war, every measure to
raise an effective army, every measure
to let that army fight for civilization.
He has supported every reasonable,
disloyal, Stacker proposition that has
been suggested either inside or out
side the congress, and has been the
author of many of them himself.

We have had recent experience of
a governor dominated by these men.
They used poor Ammons until they
got ready to ruin him, and then they
cruelty ruined him; and they almost
ruined the state; they caused civil war

900 people in subsection for nearly
two decades. These two have levied
tribute upon the capitalists, the mer-
chants and the manufacturers of this
city to the extent of millions No Malta
society in Sicily, or blackhand organi-
cation in America has ever been so
bold in its demands upon those whom
it has selected for its prey, and no such
Organization ever selected its victims
more carefully, or pursued them more
relentlessly, or has been more cruelty
or sriminally vindictive in its punish

two. These two men have driven into
bankruptcy many men who had the
courage to resist their extortions, and
financial ruin, and suicide, and shame
have followed in the wake of their
operations. They conduct their opera

ed by armed guards, to protect them
from the wrath Of their victims; one
of them never steps or even rides upon
