Republicans of Douglas counfy
should bear in mind that every device -
vice that cunuiug and duplicity can
invent , is being unscrupulously used
to bring about the election of ft Dem
ocratic delegation from Douglas
county to the legislature. It Is the
only hope the Nebraska Democracy
have of electing a Democrat to the
United States Senate , and they pro
pose to stake everything upon this
issue.
issue.A
A Democratic Legislature means
Mortou in the United States Senate ,
and nobody acquainted with the
Otoe county acrobat will deny that
Morton in the Senate would be a
calamity to Nebraska. Republicans
should not , and must not , deceive
themselves into the belief that
no harm will bo done by voting
for respectable Demoorats , out of
personal friendship , or from social
or business attachments , .admit
ting , if you choose , that some of
these men would make good Repre
sentatives , we all know what parti-
zanship can do when under the
whip and spur of the Mortons and
Millers. How was it with the.
Democrats In the Omaha * City
'ouncillast ' spring , when they delib
erately defrauded John Baumer out
of the City Treasurership to which
he was elected T
Has not every Republican in
Omaha who scratched his ticket last
spring to accommodate Democratic
candidates good reason for being
heartily ashamed of himself ? Sup
pose , for Instance , \vhat is lively to
happen , that some of the seats in
the coming legislature should
be contested. Would not a
Democratic majority rule out
the Republican claimants ? Would
not Democratic supremacy in the
legislature exert a powerful ! influ
ence in the enactment of a consti
tutional convention bill with a
view of manipulating the new con
stitution in theinterest ofDemocra-
cracy ? Don't deceive yourselves
with the belief that honest Demo
crats would not lena themselves to
suqli schemes.
The oft repeated -experience of
many years pro yes that such men
would not have the backbone to re
sist the influences of partizan lead- i j
jrs. Don't allow anybody to de- 11
jeive you Into the belief that any
Republican candidate on our. ,
jounty ticket will dare to vote | $
tgainst tbo known choice of the

npression that this is not a Thayar 01
