The Weekly Union made a num- ber of distinct charges against the democratic party, and said that if they were denied it would prove them through the columns of that paper and by its public speakers. The Times positively denied each and every one of these chargea and defied that paper to prove them. A week has gone, au issue of that paper has passed and yet not a line to prove the charges which its editor knew were false when he made them. The democratic campaign committe: «1. nied them and challenged their speakers to meet the democratic speakers and sustain their charges. The avswer was all that could be exe pected from these boasters: That Hendrickson would meet Summy; At- keson, Boxley and, with great brag- adocio, the Union would meet the Times and Democrat or Carroll would meet single handed, both Wade and Allen. The Tres has ever stood ready to answer any intelligent ar- gument why the democratic party should not be kept in power. The burden of the proof rests with the prosecution. Bare assertions and charges are not arguments. Let the great mogul of the Union take our scalp. We are ready for the sacrifice. As for meet- ing Mr. Carroll on the stump, we re- peat we have neither time nor incli- nation. If Mr. Carroll wishes to air his learning and eloquence we can furnish him with a substitute. In the mean time what has become of the U. L. speakers, our speakers are The policy of the democratic par- ‘ty is clearly and explicitly set forth in the state platform adopted at St. Joseph in June last. On the money question on which the Umon La- bor party of this county is mak- ing its fight, this platform reads: “We are in favor of free and unre- stricted coinage of silver, and the increase of volume of currencey to meet the legitimate demands of trade, and we believe the power to issue and control the volume of such currency should be exercised by the government.” Is there, can there be anything plainer?

Coming closer home. | How t the candidate of the Union Labor party for representa- tive, Mr. Hendrickson. He was be- fore the first convention and was voted for, but nominated, as Bro. Carrell knows.

Wiseman, of the Enter- prise and Bro. Carrol!, of the Union, knowing full well that Bro. Wiseman is able to take careof himself against But when the Union in- jects into these personal allusions that which affects the democratic party or its management of the affairs of the county, we feel it both a priv- ilege and a duty in the cause of truth to deny that which is untrue. and call for the proof. With its accustomed disregard for the truth the last week's Union inan linterrogative form makes this unjus tifiable inuendo: “Again, was there not a written contract, four years ago, between the would-be county treasurer and the officials of the Bates County National Bank and the Butler National Bank to the effect that each should receive such amount of the county funds as was in pro- portion to its capital stock, and was not this written agreement precident to their (the Banks) sup porting said would-be treasurer?” If this is intended, its tenor clearly indicates, to assert that the facts as indicated therein are true, we don't hesitate to say that it is a fabrication, without foundation in fact. We took occasion to interview the officers of both the banks referred to and they do not hesitate to say that neither of their banks were ever party to such an agreement, nor any agreement, whatever, upon any such conditions. Mr. Reeder, whom we suppose the Union refers to as the “would be county treasurer” says he was neyer a party to any such agreement or any other agreement of like charac- ter whatever, nor to any written agreement with regard to the depos- it of the county funds. If this con- ditional support of the banks re- ferred to in the Union is meant to be the support in the nominating convention, the story is further dis- proven by the fact that no one who has any regard for the truth will de- ny, that in this township where both banks are, and are supposed to have some influence if anywhere, this “would-be county treasurer” did not receive a single delegate. The very imp of his Satanic majes- ty, the father of falsehood, seems just now to be pouring out his vile cal- umnies through the columns of the Union. been a candidate for the last six months.” If any one doubts this let | him call upon P. He Holcomb, who among others heard the remark. Was not Bro. Hartsock nominat- edon the plea that the criminal classes where he was known would support him? Did not the brother Nominating him in convention give as one of the reasons why he would be elected that the negroes in the mines would all support him,“decause when they were before him for of- Senses for which they eught to be fined twenty dollars they were fined only one dollar.’ For the benefit of those who do not know we will say that Bro. Hartsock is ajustice of the peace in the mines, and he made that reputation in that way, as we learred from the speech of the broth- er who nominated him. Is that in keeping with the fact that he be longs to the church of the Latter Day Saints? We have not yet heard whether he was at the Mountain Meadow massacre or not. How about “the principals of @ party being indexed by the character of the men who advvueate them?” Hon. T. J. Hendrickson, our can- didate for representateve had a busy week of campaigning, * * * At Lone Oak the crowd filled the room and listened attentively to a discus- sion of the tax question. Mr. H. showed how the common people paid at least 90 per cent. of the national taxes by our tariff and in- ternal revenue system, that not a dollar is collected off an assessment of wealth, but all is collected off of commodities which are consumed mainly by the common people.—-The Weekly Union, October 9, 1890. The toiling masses are unanimous in the belief that the money question is the question for the consideration and that their power of the national banking system has been manipulat- ed to prduce the present hard times. They absolutely ignore the tariff humbug—will waste no time over it.—Weekly Union, Oct. 9, 1890. The above paragraphs can be found, one on the editorial page and One on the local page of the Union of this city and express directly op- posite views. Now, which policy is the great educator of the U. L. people going to pursue? Is he going to “ignore the tariff hum- bug,” or is he going to “show how the common people pay at least 90 per cent. of the national taxes by our tariff and internal reve- nue system?” Mr. Carroll will be a wonderful freak of nature if he can accomplish this, what heretofore has been considered an impossible feat, that of riding two horses at | Once, going in opposite directions.

Will instruct you further. Signed — From the day that Donohoe re- ceived notice that he failed to get the appointment he has been labor- ing with the democrats in this coun- ty in a manner indicated in our im- aginary letter as above. Oh, what a dear lover of democracts Donohoe is. If we mistake not, shortly after the late war he, with pistol in hand, swore that no democrat should make a speech in this county. ME. Jas. G. Blaine, at the earnest re- quest of president Harrison, has finally consented, (so the Washing- ton Dispatch says,) to make a few speeches in McKinley's district and help out the author of the infamous tarff bill. The western farmers will remember that Mr. Blaine once said of this bill: ‘There is not a section or a line in the entire bill that will open the market for another bushel | of wheat or another barrel of pork.” The new tariff bill was not intended to benefit the poor, it was formed | for the rich manufacturer.
