Dress Patterns POPULISTS ENTER FIELD Leaders Say They Will Put up a Full Electoral Ticket Prominent Salem Populists say there will be a complete electoral ticket of that party placed before the voters at tho coming presidential elec tion, and they expect to poll more votes than the Democrats. Bryan's cold bla3t for Parker is having the effect to drive the scat tered forces of the Populists together and will get out a big vote for that party, which seeks to get back part of its following that has drifted to the Socialists. Advices are expected from tho East and then steps will be taken to put uty a Watson electoral ticket. Watson has the confidence of tho People'3 party, and will poll a big vote in. Ore gon should a ticket be put in the field for him in Oregon. Populists say that Parker is more radical as a goldbug than Roosevelt, and more fully representative of Wall street and'the trusts than the RepubV llcan candidate. Hence their action.
