NON-PARTISAN.
About the flimsiest dodge, that
lrss as yet been attempted to bolBter
up a losing cause, is the attempt
! now being inado ovor tills slate to
organize what they are pleased to
call "Non-l'arllsan Woodrow Wilson
: .Leagues," with tlie futile hope of
catching .the unwary asleep. Tho
professed plan Is to concentrate the
on tiro efforts of the league to the re
election of Woodrow Wilson, now
president of tho United States
through the grace of a family quar
rel among (he republicans four years
ago. Local county 'Mid stale candi
