Where a short time ago the wheel was not very strong a radical change has been made and the democratic party is gaining recruits daily. This is the case from most of the territory where Mayor Francis and the state can- vassershave been. Our kind and considerate friend Austin is considerably exercised over what he terms a Waterloo for the ‘Tres as the result of our primaries. A man with a thimble full of brains and possessed of the least particle of knowledge of the English lan- guage. and who pretends to keep posted, knows full well that the booming Trves did not attempt, di- rectly or indirectly, to “pull through” any candidate, and we state further that every candidate nominated at the primaries is a personal friend and well wisher of this paper. When- ever it becomes necessary for certain democratic politicians in Butler to create an impression detrimental to the Times, Austin is always used as the cat’s paw. We thank our kind friend for the honest confession that the “Tnrs has been flying high,” and assure him that it will take a heavier weight than he and his dem- Geratic cohorts to step on our coat tail. ——___. Offers a Big Bet. i Pittsburg, Pa., Sept. 20.—Barney Forts is a broker on the ¥ change. Yesterday he startled the exchange by an offer to bet $100, 000 Cleveland's election. He Chis defiance to Oi! City York. Some brokers think placed in his be on stock ex- | THE OUTLOOK GOOD. The campaign in Bates county is opening up in fine shape. A No. 1 | ticket has nominated, with which there is little if any dissatis- | faction. There is good feeling in | democratic ranks over the county. It is presidential year, when every democrat takes a pride in seeing his party victorious, from the highest to the lowest office in the gift of the people. It is expected, of course, that after ahotly contested campaign | | been for the nominations, there will be) some disappointments. But a man who can uot bear defeat gracefully is not deserving of victory. remember that he is held responsible toa great extent for their actions. This may be unjust to the candidate defeated, but it is a deer tablish- ed by custom, and the fact remains | that it is so. A man who is a true friend to a defeated candidate will | consider well before taking steps | that will injure him in the future- With the good feeling that now exists among the democrats of Bates county there is no doubt that an increased majority will be rolled up. To-mor- row the campaign will be opened in the county at Butler and Rich Hill. Speakers of state renown, including the next governor, D. R. Francis, will address thousands of enthusi- astic democrats from all portions of the county. A big time is antici- pated, and the enthusiasm created at this time will be carried into the contest and never diminish until the polls close on Nov. 6th A SLIGHT COMPARISON. The Bates County Democrat has boastingly stated in several instances that when Mr. Wade, its editor, had active charge of the campaign in Bates county, the majorities of the | democratic party were considerably larger than they have been since. This in substance. Whenapproach- ed personally on this subject Mr. Wade said that he meant when he was secretary of the central com- mittee. Now a slight comparison of the campaign of 1882, when Mr. Wade was secretary of the committee, with that of 1884, when J. D. Allen, of the Times, held this’same position, will do no harm and correct the erroneous impressions which have been created by these statements: In 1582 Congressional maj. 653 “ 1884 5 « Te “© 1882 Sheriff's & 401 “ 1884 « “720 “1882 Pros. Attorney “ 348 “1882 Representative * 452 “ 1884 ee “841 “ 1882 JudgeSouthDis ~« 72 “ 1884 “ “ oe “ 263 From the above it will be seen that the majorities of 1884, when Mr. Allen was secretary, were largely in excess of those when Mr. Wade held that position. In 1886 neither of these gentlemen were on the com- mittee, consequently a comparison is unnecessary. We do not give these facts in a boastful spirit, but simply in justicos to ourselves and others | who helped to bear the burdens of this contest. We make no claim to superior generalship on account of this favorable showing, but do not think we deserve censure in this | connection. ———— We have already remarked that forgery is one of the accepted meth- ods of the republican campaign. Perhaps the meanest and cheapest of these dirty political forgeries that | has yet been unearthed is a card | printed in the dialect spoken by the | Polish Jew and containing pretend- | ed extracts from German, Polish, Hebrew and English newspapers, the tenor of which is that the Mills bill, besides free trade, means the! prohibition of Hebrew immigration to this country. These cards have been extensively circulated among the Polish Jews of New York. and no doubt at the present moment are being distributed elsewhere.
