il is all intended for effect. II It's
provisions will interfere with any cor
porate body in America to-day it will
be with labor and industrial organi-
cations, The spectacle Of Senator
Sherman posing before the American
people as an antitrust legislator is
too farcical TO merit serious notice.
II the Senator desires TO repent ofhis
past sins, and atonO TO the people for
the great wrongs for which he, more
than any other one man, is RESPONSE
BILE, lot him lay the axe at the root of
the evil and strike at the great money
trust which he has done 80 much TO
establish in this country, and the
smaller and more insignificant trusts
at which he would have us believe his
bill to be aimed will go the way Of
all the earth, and be known no more
among the children of men.

DO tho Bottom of the sea.

II the vast sums Of money appro-
priated by congress, during the last
quarter Of a century, for wastefuI,
senseless and fraudulent purposes
were to be tabulated and placed be-
fore the astonished gaze OF the Amer
lean people, there would go forth a
thunderous demand for reform that
would reverberate from one end Of
the continent to the other.
Here is just one little morsel Of
testimony, inadvertently given, dur
ing a recent senate discussion Of the
bill to provide for the improvement of
Galveston harbor:
Mr. Frye Mr.. President, frequent charges
have been made Of a wrongful expenditure Of
money In the river and harbor bills. Now, am
prepared TO say that the only wastem expendl-
tuTe really made In the river and harbOr bills, Is
that expenditure which calls for too little money
We have been apprOpratng for Galveston IIar.
Dor for the last six or eight or ten years, and
have not gained upon that bar more than 0inches
Of water, simply because you make an apprOph-
alton one year Of 100000, the next year you have
no appropriation bill, or II may be vetoed, and
the third year you will make an appropriation
Of S25OOOO and that viii not cover the loss Of the
year for which you appropriated nothing The
result is that you have poured into Galveston
HarbOr eight or ten hundred thousand dollars
without elIectng any purpose
Mr. MandersOn. / ask the Senator II that Is
not true as TO many other harbOrs, notably the
mouth Of the st, Johns River, In Florida, where
there has been poured into the ocean an enor-
nous sum Of money and yetthrough the opera
tiOn he speaks Of, no beneficial result has been
secured?
The advocate., 1890-04-09
Another Remedy Eor Hard TImes

Congress has recently been strug-
Cling with the great question Of the
establishment Of a Geological Park in
the District Of Columbia. II is a
great satisfaction to the people of
America to observe the benevolent
purpose Of our representatives to pro-
vide for the comfort and protection OF
the American Bison and the poor
dumb animals imprisoned in our pub
lie parks. It is possible that after
provision has been made for the birds
Of the air, the fishes Of the sea and the
beasts that roam the forests and the
plains, and after monuments have
been erected to all the dead, and IN
commemoration of the momentous
historic events Of past time, the living
people of this generation may be
heard in relation to things pertaining
TO their present necessities.
The advocate., 1890-04-09
In our report Of the proceedings OF

In our report Of the proceedings Of
the recent meeting Of county presi-
dents, we overlooked one resolution
Of much importance. II was that
a committee be appointed to revise
the constitution Of the State and Sub
Alliances, and instructed to report at
the regular meeting Of the state alli-
ance in October The following are
the names OF this committee:
s. j. Adkins, Burton.
j. Bleaky, Lawrence.
w. G. Brush, Topeka.
j. q. Otis, Topeka.
Il. O. Hawkins, Elk county.
We are requested to state that this
committee would be glad to receive
suggestions from sub-alliances and
county alliances, concerning desired
amendments.

The Oause OF the MIsohIeE.

Senator Plumb says, that owing to
the evil effect Of the contraction of
the currency, things have eliminated
in the lowest prices known for many
years.
Mr.. John M. Thurston, president
Of the National Republican League
says: 'EEvery day / view the situation
/ am more firmly convinced that the
one reason for low prices in the west,
comes from insufficient money in cir
culation to carry on our business"
Mr.. John d. Rockefeller and Wall
Street, with united voice says, Gin
temperance is the one word which
covers poverty"
Mr.. U, S. Statstician Dodge says,
"OverproduCtion" is the blight
The Kansas City Times sees moth
ing but the "tariff," as the source of
all our woes
The onepoint upon which these dis
agreeing doctors all agree is, hard
times.

THE Hutchinson Ne,Us quotes the
opinion of the Chicago Inter Ocean,
Of our "silver tongued" senator and
says: "It is we'll for disgruntled
Kansans to read outside estimates Of
Mr.. Ingalls,"
The high appreciation Of Mr.. Ingalls,
by national bankers, capitalists, cor
porations and a subsidized press is
one Of the reasons why the people re-
gard him with suspicion. AS John A.
Anderson remarked recently "it is
safe TO oppose anything those fellows
are in favor Of"
While speaking Of this matter, we
would like to ask the NetCs TO tell us
and its readers just what Senator In
gals has ever done for the farmers
and laboring men Of Kansas during
his entire public lifeG
We have asked this question before
in a general way, and the only answer
yet received is, that she has skinned
democrats" If the NetCs has any bet
ter answer we should be pleased to
place it before our readers.

Thoy Fare Too Well.

A Chicago newspaper reporter vis-
iting a cloak factory during the noon
recess, found thirty-seven women
making their dinner on dry bread
alone, fifteen were indulging in the
luxury Of sandwiches; ten ate cold
pancakes, and twenty-three had no
dinner whatever. Over-production
undoubtedly causes such reckless ex-
travagance as is displayed in this bill
OF fare.

WILDLY IN LOVE.
William ellison Creates a Scene
On Harrison Street.

William ellison was arrested about II
o'clock yesterday morning on First street by
oihcers John c. Daley and Elliott Farley
alter an escapade that will serve to make
his name notorious for months in the neigh
borhood OF First and Harrison streets. At
the Southern Station he was charged with
disturbing the peace, vulgar language and
assault with deadly weapon.
Last Friday night Gibson called at SOL
Harrison street, where Mrs. j. Murphy
keeps lodging house. He demanded en-
trance to see Miss Murphy with whom he
was. in love. His demand was refused by
the lodgeI who happened to answer the
door-bell. and ellison grew demonstrative.
Taking revolver from his pocket he -four
ished it about his head, but before he could
make the movement mere than flourish
the door was slammed in his face After
batting against the door a couple of minutes,
to the horror of the inmates, Gibson fired a
shot into the wall, then walked away.
Yesterday he returned and made the same
demands. fully determined to kill the per-
son who had answered the bell on the pre-
vlous night. The same person did not come
to the door, and, perhaps, to that alone is
que the 1act that murder did not take
place. After terrifying the whole neigh
borhood, but failing to see Miss Murphy,
ellison left and got as far as Howard street
on First when he was arrested. Gibson is
said to be a sea-gOing man.
