For Vice President Whitlaw Reid of New York.
The Kearney Hub reports on a state ticket with Lorenzo Crounse for governor and J G Tate for lieutenant governor among others, plus a sweeping entry on Alabama Democrats split, Cleveland, Hill, and local race chatter in Cheyenne county. The Aurora Republican notes the Whitehead Kem debate sparring and party realignments, with comments on independents and a shifting political landscape.
The article presents congressional record based proof of Kem's alleged lack of duty to constituents. It argues that responses labeling the allegations as lies do not change the fact of his monumental failure to serve the public.
The constituents accuse the politician of avoiding responsibility and lying to cover his ignorance and inability. They say he failed to undertake an easy duty, instead blaming others and misrepresenting the situation to the suffering public.

Mercer is praised as young, knowledgeable about western needs, and capable of rallying Republicans to uphold principled, progressive government. If they vote dutyfully, Mercer could win a seat in the House at Washington by March.
