Rut, in spite of possessing such hum oies<|ue perspicacity in the matter of calling attention to Hie faults of (lie Nugget, all his Solomon-like wisdom will not permit him to see that tin High Priest of the machine and not the Nugget is called into uuestion by the voters. Wo tried to get him to tell us wherein the famous Sulzor bills were not inimical to tin- Interests of the Territory and to show ns that Mr Sulzor did not deceive the people in that "on the job" telegram in a fair and logical manner. Rut he does none of those things, thereby proving our earlier eon i ntlon that the machine cult HAVE No DEFENSE TO MAKE. Taking it !’ in all. Jus second attack on the Nugget is an even sillier document than the Hrst In spite of laudations of Sulzor and his "great" bills he falls to dig up on* single argument to convince the people that the Nugget Is wrong by * <a slIuWIMJ that it is \\ mug. rim poor ..t terni.
