A prominent Populist, remarked to us Saturday, after reading W. C. Olson's article, that Would was right in charging that thev want every thing in sight. It was the long-headed Pops whotold Olson . heshould stay out of the. race as the people were of the opinion that they were doing well and to let some good farmer run. He says their party is made up mostly of farmers and it was no more than right that that particular office should go to a farmer. But the chair maii of the convention said that if Mr. Olson didu't get the . nomination this year lie would never get any thing. The Populist told us that was true-pbut he was acting with the Pop party just like he" did with the Re publicans. He tried to get an office, and they would not trust him because they considered him a dangerous man politically. The only reason Olson got the nomination was the Pops were afraid if they turned him down he would serve them the same as lie di I the-Republicans. N CASTOR I A For Infants and Children.

Tcxsell, - Browneil, Kansas. - Last week's Independent devoted a whole column, signed bv W. C. Olson, in answer to our article that the In dependent was "gobbling" all the loaves and fishes that fell from the P.ipulist table. We care not what W- c . oison savs on the matter. The tracts are, and nearly every voter Trego county knows that Frakes, Cox and Olson are trying to run the Deino pop machinery iir Tregti county Every reader of World or Independ ent knows that four years ago they howled themselves hoarse ''down with ring rule." As soon as they came in to power they were the first to sug gest that they receive all in sight and look for more and they haven't over looked anything. We never knew of any of theiii overlooking anything po litical or otherwise. They care noth ing for man or beast so long as they get the best of it. This is. a known fact and their history repeats it. He saysthat the leaders of the Populist party were responsible for liim start ing the Independent. This is false and to prove it we will call to mind If you have neuralgia, Scott's Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil will feed the nerve that is cry ing for food it is hungry and feet your whole body going again; in away to satisfy nerve and brain from your usual food. ..

Rut we do know that the leaders of his party whoJiad stock in the Concern had to pay a double liability assess mentsay $20 for a $10 share. With all this in view Mr. Olson says the leaders of his party had to push liim' into starting the Independent. Uosh! We know why they started the Inde pendent to make uionev out of Ire gocounty and the Pop p .ly .mlli ng else. TIm; story is too t in, . Olsou. Then he goes on and says that the i n. dependent lost a lot of money on the contest so did L ncle Josh Musgrave and myself. Xext lie says his so has received only $900 as his share of three years county printing. What hasbe come of the balance, $1S00? lie says the Would' has had the county printing ever since' the county was organized at leiil rates. Hut we want to remind Mr. Olson that the World didn't get as much out of the county it legal or 100 per cent as the Inde pendent is getting at CO per cent. Please explain to the voters how 00 is more than 100." lie .says that ."the Would presented bills for services not rendered and received pay for same. The charge is false and applys to the Independent and we will prove oiir assertion before the campaign ends, lie savs that he is in no way identified with the Independent man agement. This is false or else he is deceiving the lT. P R. It. manage ment.

Snaps! ain't they, Olson? He goes on to savthat we lack in brotherly spirit; How can a fellow prjnter have any spirit for a lot of fellows who have been trying in every way, shape or form to down a fellow man? We know whereof we sneak and could cite some of the lowest, contemptible things ever prepetr.ited on a printer merely for self agrandizement, or in other words to beat us out of-a few dollars. If we were so inclined we could print a page of happenings about the writ- erof the article, of yearsgone by, but as we lack In christian spirit, we will how hi in that the christian spirit is on our side.
