If in 1892, 130,000 were Repub licans, how many in 1894, when Republicans voted almost sol idlv for fusion i Surelv the Thirdites did the blowing and raised the racket while the Republicans did the voting. It was about that way down here. To whom belong the spoils i is a Republican Legislature, when they have onlv oneHhird, or less, of the members ?"
