still wondering, why It was that any
body wanted to bVlbeV'HOnest Pope *
Brown to get on the “local option
side of the temperance Question, We
have also wondered h lew times who
it is that has so much loose' change
as to be passing It around that way.
Pope’s “headquarters” announced a
few days ago, that $H><f,Q00 In “filthy
iucr^' was laid before him, and he
turned his back upon it—spurned the
offer and told Satan to “go away back
and sit down." We know Why thqj
amount was not doubled on the spot—
itwas because “Honest -Pope” *to!d
the tempter, that n<Tamount of mon
ey could buy or bribe him. That is
plain enough. It is plain enough, too,
that Pope refused to yield.
Rut the original proposition 3llli
stands; Why was the offer made
nd who made It? Wo are told that
it was a “responsible party”, but the
Is not given. Who was it?
And why was the offer made? Did
the “responsible party" think that
Pope could be bought or bribed? Did
he think Pope bad a cinch on th'
governorship and that he ought to be
captured in advance? If this “repsno-
slble party” had $100,000 to put on
this campaign, is it not probable that
the same interests had some mone.
to put on the last campaign? Who
got It? Where was that money plac
ed? Pope might have done his pro
hibition friends a good turn by find
Ing out that. We could have easily
done so from thlB "responsible party
approached him with the “bar-
if Pope does not mind
"headquarters” will make hlin ridic
ulous.
There are many reasons why
do n*#t believe the report. One of
them Is because “a hundred thousand
collars Is a heap of money,”
Joe Brown said when a youngster
asked him if he was worth that much.
“Responsible partfse" do not bid that
high on the first bid. They might go
up that high before they would let
good tiling go by, but there would be
a lot of dickering before they would
go that strong. If Popo had made
the figures they would have “jewed"
him down. The amount was
great. The man who got up the re
port is ovtdently given to ‘“seeing
things." ^
There, is another reason why wc
do not believe It. Most of the "re
sponsible parties'* know that “Hon
est Pope" would not sell himself for
tiyo or three times that much. They
could not go after him that way.
They merely "confer" with him—
lhake a few motions bofore his eyes
with their hands and fingers (like
hypnotists do) and stop there. If one
representative of the “Interests"
could not turn the trick they would
send others like live Coast Lino did

low irtiat It gave In under oath
Smart lawyers—strong mentalities—
did what no amount of money could
have done. When "Honest" Pope
was pushed out of the gubernatorial
rr.ee on two former occasions, he was
not bought or bribed. Ho was “con
ferred" out of ft, and he hlmsolf Is
quoted as saying. He merely "gave,
in" before stronger minds—not that
