cause he imagines that Mr. STUART really | gee

Mr. CARSON has had a taste of the pleas-

‘he is trying to please STUART even at the
expense of his fornter friends.

Besides he bas violated oe constitution
frequently and iv various ways in connec-
tion with the affair.
Not Well Taken.
There is little or nothing to be gained
by aspersing the wisdom of the nomina-
tion of LEWIS EMERY Jr., by the Demo-
cratic state convention. Before that event
the WATCHMAN consistently and with such
force as it could command advocated a fu-
sion ticket with a capable Democrat at its
head. There were plenty such who would
have heen acceptable to the LINCOLN party
and all other elements in the electorate
who stood for improvement in the public
service. But the Democratic state conven-
tion was of a different mind and believing
that “‘in the multitude of counsellors there
is wisdom," we cheerfully acquiesced and
see no reason to regret the action.
Mr. EMERY proved a splendid leader in
the extraordinary campaign which cal
mioated in his defeat. He was courageous,
energetic and capable. He was assailed
with a venom and vehemence rarely equal-
led and never exceeded, but never swerved
from hie course or stopped in bis progress,
Conscious of the rectitude of his purpose
and entrenched in an impreguable cbar-
acter for integrity, he pursued the path of
duty as he understood it. No man could
have done better, Few would have done
as well. There is no cause for complaint
against either Mr. EMERY or his associates
on the ticket. They comprised a force
which it was an honor to support and a
leadership which is was a pleasure to fol.
low.
There were Democrats here and there
who refused to vote for EMERY for the
ostensible reason that be is a Republican
and voted for STUART who is also a Re-
publican. The recreant Democratic mem-
bers of the Legislature of 1901 who voted
for MARSHALL for Speaker instead of for
General KOONTZ pleaded the same subter-
fuge. Bat KoONTZ on that occasion and
EMERY on this represented that for which
Democracy stands, government ‘‘of the
people, for the people and by the people,”
while their opponents stood for the ini.
quities of the atrocious machine. We wounld
probably have been beaten this year, whe-
ever our candidate might bave been, and
we don’t see bow another candidate could
have made a better fight.

As n matter of fact the new capitol bas
