Alas, how the mighty has fallen. Four years ‘ago the campaign cry of the populists was to examine the county records. They claimed that lif they could be overhauled that frauds and defaleations would be un earthed. The populists were giyen the opportunity and they had them overhauled by an expert,at the coun ty’s expense. After laboring weeks and weeks, they had to give it up as a bad jot and admit that the accounts of democratic officials were straight Ob, how hard they labored to find lone little mistake that they might hold the democratic party at fault. Not a reflerence has been made by papers or speakers to this matter during this campaign. Would it not be fair for them to give this? Will Atkeson please explain to his readers that those records have been and found correct the poy ulist us credit for examined It is being circulated in different sections of the county by populists that certain democratic candidates are trading off other democratic »ominees for republican votes. This is a lie on its face, told for the pur- pose of making discordin democrat- | ic rauks. Those kind of campaign lies may be expected from now on, and democrats should keep their tempers and not give credence to any of them. The present democratic ticket will | compare favorably with any ticket ever presented to the voters of Bates county. They are all gentle- men of clean private lives, are well | qualified to perform the duties of the respective offices to which they aspire, and are deserving of the full party support. Vote the democratic ticket straight and you will make no mistake. If Atkeson—Hackett-Dorohoe & Co., are such great friends to the down trodden laboring man. why| don’t they let him have the offices, instead always standing ready to re- lieve him of that onerous burden? |} All the use they have for the work | ing man is his vote, and their whole record go to prove this. | Atkeson—Hackett-Donohoe & Co. have euch a high regard for the} laboring man that they are ready to relieve him of the heavy burdens of office holding by stand- ing ready to sacrifice themselves up | on the altar.
