REPUBLICAN SCHEMES.
THE DUDLEY-QUAY-MICHENER GANG Hope to Dnw Away Enough Democratic Farmers to Elect a Republican to the United State* Senate. t The farmers of Indiana will study long before they support any alliance-republi-can combination ticket. The despairing leaders of the g. o. p., with Michener in charge, begun eight months ago the labor of sotting in motion a movement which should result in the farmer organizations selecting tickets in. democratic counties j over the state, where such a step would naturally be to their advantage. It is a trick, a snare. It will be observed, too, that in no county in the state has the republican party indorsed the farmer movement where they have a clear majority; and also that they have indorsed no Farmer alliance candidate for the legislature in any county who has not been a republican heretofore and stands committed to vote for the republican caucuß nominee for the U. S. senate. A democrat who would he led into such a political pitfall needs a guardian, and all farmers who do not approve of the high-tax-robber-tariff, the force bill, the record of republican extravagance which shows a deficiency of $80,000,000, and other reckless legislation, should steer clear of all side shows and vote the straight democratic ticket.
