Xow, all is changed, and he is advocating that self same, single gold stand ard. Certainly, if the demo cratic party was wiong then, Mr. Thurston must he wrong I now. w incli is ngiit: Hie jJorKAL maintains that the (principal of the single gold standard was wrong in 1893, and is wrong now. S;iuitor Mutz Could Xot Come. A letter to Hon. LewsCerl ach last Monday morning from Hon. Otto Mutz stated that it would be impossible for him to be at Harrison last Tuesday as previously an nounced in the JorRNAb. He gave as his reason that busi ness affairs at home needed his attention but might be here later on in the campaign. A vote for Hon. L. Ger lach and Senator Mutz to represent the people of this district in the legislature this cominur winter means two 1 their equals cannot be found in this district. Fresident M Kinly bad confered on him on the 17th Inst at the University of CbMtigo the degree of L. L. . Hon. Iwis Gerlach the fusion candi date for representative from this ."rrJ district has a army record as well as A. G. Fisher the reputdican noniiuen. lie was a soldier in the nth l'ennsvlvania state tnelitia and dotibtleHs h tw alsmt as much camp service as did A. G. Fisher as that is all be did see. Certainly bis hi war record ca'nt cut much of a figure in the fall election. Under the McKinley administration the forming of trusts goes merrily on. The latest to form is the shirt and collar trust with a capital stock of $1,000,000. Thus it can be readily seen that the wealth of the country is gradually but surely being centralized into the hands of a few. Certainly the people will pet their eyes open but we fear it will be too late to remedy the trouble. Court reporter for Judge H'estov, Jolin (J. Maher has prefered cburg, against Onl.

The Journal wishes to say to th voters of Sioux county that the frit silver H-publicans of this county are well Haii.slied with the nomination of Hon. Lewis Gerlach as their candidate i for representative. Every free silver re-: publican should make sure aritl cast a.;a"d lring a democrat: and rmmiun u vote for him on November 8th. d'iioTat, paper we shall of course place rj Mr. 'lark's name in the regular ticket ti ii" . . , ,,, , , ;Col imn.

Will they grant the request? Never! never!! Capt. A. G. Fisher of (Jhadron, has b. n appointed by the republican central committee of this 53rd representative district to fill vacancy caused by the resignation of J. H. Jones of Ilushville, who was the regular nominee of that party for legislative honors. The Journal does Viot pretend to know bow well Mr. Fisher will take with the voters in the other three counties composing this representative district but it does know that Mr. Fishers name will be dennis in Sioux county Novem ber 8th. It is a well conceedud fact that he cai.not carry his party vote in this county; as a party man, Mr. Fisher's record is against him. For the past two years Mr. Fisher has len unable to tell just where le; "was at," he has played in the back yard of the free silver camps ami yet has refused to leave the gold standard party, hence as the RuKhvillo Standard says: Has blown hot and cold, and played loose and fast, and for that reason if for no other neither of the parties can be consistunt with themselves and support him at the polls on Novem bar !Hh. While on the other hand, Hon. Lewis Gerlach. the fusion candidate is a repre sentative man; a man "of the people, by the people and for the people." His ability cannot be questioned; be is a business man in every sense of the term; is honest and upright; "does u o others as he would that others should do unto him," He is an ideal man iind will make an ideal representative of the people. Mr. Gerlaeh's election is assur ed beyond a question of a doubt, il all reports are true and they come from reliable sources. His majority will lie much more than lion. C H. Sheldon's was two years ago. Mr. Gerlach is not a tcol of the railroads, corporations or combines and hence, bis bands are not tied so that ho cannot properly repre sent the people of this district. A vote for him is a vote in fav r of honest leg islation and Hon. V. V. Allen for U. H. senator. The county conventions which took place at the court home a week ago last Saturday for the purpose of nominating a county attorney resulted in a misun derstanding between the three parties which composed them. Tho two aspir ants for the nomination were Grant Guthrie, the present county attorney and A. T. Clark. The principal trouble took place in the People's party conven tion regarding tho agreement to bo car ried out between the three conventions the nomination of a candidate forcouuty attorney. However that may be tho Journal does not pretend to say what that agreement was, as the writer was not preselit w hen the conference commit tees made tlieir report. Hut both Mr. Guthrie and Clark claimed the nomina tion. To, make a long story short, the pioples party convention adjour.ied with out making a nomination not-with-stand-iug Chairman Raum declared A. T. Clark the nominee. Hut secretary Puddy re fused to ci rlify to the noimination and thus left the affair in a muddled state. Both gentlemen, were full of determina tion to seek relief in the courts for w hat they thought was a vindication of their rilits regarding tho nomination for ciuiity attorney in the people's parly convention. But us the free silver Re- publicans had nominated Mr. Guthrie 'or county attorney and the Ilemocrats had nominated Mr. (Mark for the same office, they each one after tyireful consideration concluded to drfp the people's party nomination each would go oi Iho free silver Republican and 1 Hmtocratic ticket r s.x ctiv.ly, thus making a three t(r. nered light as lietween the thrne parties 1 1 the county. Thus, the Joi rnal bus iried to give tho unpleasant feature of t te strife as we found it, The vote, as near as we could learn in populist and democratic conventions ore us follows: Democratic, f'lark, informal 15 Guthrie, " 13 lark, formal 17 Guthrie " 13 Populist. Clark, informal 13 luihne, " 15 (."lark, lormal lij Guthrie, ' 20 The Journal does not attempt to say who was entitled to thu nomination in the people's party convention but believe !;!h men were qualified to fill the office Bath are free silver men; one a Populist and the other a democrat hence when the voter goes to tie polls l.e will he olid-red tnex-rei-w bis best judgement relative to tcs choice for county attor- uey The writer Was in tin leic-r't convention that nominated M, Clark, twtSB we aregoing to nmUe a pgonal ;n;llt, and as we said rs fore every voter i must exercise his best judgement at the pons on the Hih of November, who Is r,olk on (tin Ktli of riti...i i.:.
