II there is one thing above another
that has a tendency 10 disgust one
with human nature it is the oredulity
of a small portion Of our people. The
republican press, in the conduct Of
this campaign, ~ completely ignores
all reference 10 any principle Az
though none were involved in the con-
teat. II ezpends its entire energies
in the invention and dissemination OF
ialsehood. The leading journals,
those that are old and experienced in
this kind of warfare in carrying out
the theory that "it is lawful to de-
ceive," originate most Of these false
hoods and start them on their mis-
chievous errands. The smaller pa
pers take them up, and months after
their first appearance, and after they
have been thoroughly exposed, some
little nine by twelve sheet in re-
mote corner OF the state will repro
duCe them, and a new subscriber 10
THE ADVOCATE who has not seen the
expose will write to this Office enclos-
ing clippings, and want to know IL
the story il true. We have recently
received q clipping OF this kind en-
titled "7'he DeGL" which reproduoes
the fake originated at the state house
and published in tho Kansas City
Journal the morning after the adj
iournmeut Of the peoples convention.
This was NO ridiculous a story that
even the larger republican journals
in Kansas had not the courage to
publish it, The little papers pick it
up however with the greatest avidity,
and they find a few fools who need to
have sworn testimony Of lbs falsehood
or they arc ready TO take IL all in.
The writer who encloses this clipping
is man who discerns its true char
acter, but he seems to know Of some
who have not az much sense as him
ssli We have no hope OF the sup
port Of such men. They will continue
to vote the republican ticket while
they live, not because they know any
reason why they should do 40, but be-
cause their votes are controlled by
precisely this kind Of tactics.
The peoples party rely for success
upon an Intelligent thinking people
men who are investigating and
studying the causes of the present
deplorable condition of our country,
and who will not be wheedled about
by the idle talks of a conscienceless
partisan press. If Kansas has not
a majority OF this class Of men, then
will the peoples party suffer defeat
"The deal" in question, like most Of
the other political capital of the re-
publican party had It's origin in the
fertile imagination of the state house
ring and it's attaches where tho an
archy Of the state Of Kansas takes
root in q most fertile soil.

say that neither the peoples party or
any other party will over possess a
muzzle powerful enough to produce a
case Of stulhiication; and when any
trades are made or any Of our candi-
dates decide to withdraw from the
campaign, Wa will give you official no
tice OF the fact; and Tm ADVOCATE
will speak with no uncertain sound
concerning the transaction. Possess
your soul in peace upon this subject.
We are ia this contest upon principle
and we shall not sacrifice principle
for what might appear to be success,
Concerning the Capitals assumed
demonstration Of the southern demo
cratic proclivities of the alliance it is
unnecessary to say a word. That
song has been sung until it's monoto-
ny has become revolving. Every ALI
ance man in Kansas knows the true
character and purpose Of the organi-
zation, and this scare crow will not
frighten a single man. The member
ship Of the organization in every state
is necessarily divided politically be-
tween the two parties in proportion
to their relative strength. OF course
in tho south the majority are of dem
cratic antecedents. They could not be
expected to be otherwise. So in Kan
sas and in the northern states the ma
jority is Of republican antecedents.
This could not be expected to be
otherwise. Yet every alliance man
we'll knows that no distinction is
known in the order in former politi-
cal affiliations, and in the selection of
candidates for Office, neither repubh-
can or democrat stops to inquire
what have been their former politics.
No one cares for this; and if the
Capital could realize thus fact it would
avoid many absurd sayings. This
cry Of southern democracy has no
terrors.
It has been apparent from the first
that the republican party intended to
make the question Of prohibition stide
all other issues il possible. The press
has observed a deathlike silence
upon every other question. ItcannOt
be provoked to even make mention of
any other, and yet the attitude Of the
party upon this question convicts it Of
insinCerity and hypocrisy. Were the
republican party really sincere in its
Of prohibition, aud really
desirOus that the law should be en-
forced, it would not support Lyman
U. Humphrey for governor. There
are certain notorious facts that are
not denied that verify this statement.
1t is not denied that Governor Hum
phrey is himself in the habit of get
ting m )st gloriously drunk on sundry
occasions. 1t is not denied that Mr..
Conn, Of the city Of Lawrence, was
charged with violation of the prohib-
itory law, and that Governor Hum
phrey contracted in advance to par

SCRANTON, July 1.-The Democratic state
convention met this morning. Eckley B.
Coke was made temporary chairman and
ex-Postmaster Harrity permanent chair
man.
The Platform endorses Cleveland's adj
ministration, and compares it with Harri-
sons; recommends ballot reform, and such
policy in the coinage OF silver as will keep
both gold and silver coin in circulation or
treasury notes redeemable in the same;
deprecates and denounces the unequal
apportionment of districts for the
election OF congressman and expresses
belief that the voters of states should be
allowed to make their own apportionment.
The issue OF Quayism rendered by the late
Republican state convention Is accepted,
and the Republican party is arraigned for
usurpation of power in the administration
OF the federal government; for placing die
tator in the chair as speaker of the House;
for open disregard of the civil service
law; for failures to fulfil promises to
the soldiers; for cease!ess efforts to pro-
mote sectional strife; for lavish and reck-
less expenditure of public money; for pass
ing through the House the Mckinley bill,
which reduces taxes only on luxuries; for
failure to enforce the laws against importa-
ton of convict and pauper labor; for the
attempt to pass the federal election
law, designed to excite a race war;
for its corrupt methods in popular
elections and cringing subservienoe to
. party boss who stands mute before the
most terrible inculpation ever charged
against public official. THE silence Of
n. S. Quay under the charges made against
him through the public press can only be
interpreted as confession of guilt, and
his retaining of seat in the United States
Senate while refusing TO demand legal
investigation is a national scandal"
The platform was unanimously adopted.
and nominations were made. The nomi-
nees for governor we're: Robert Pattison.
William A. Wallace. Robert e. Wright,
William q. Hensel. Chauncey +. Black.
Before the roll call was finished on the first
ballot, it was apparent that Pa,tison, who
was great favorite, was nomi-
mated, and as soon as the result
was announced, the nomination was made
unanimous. Nominations for lieutenant
governor resulted in the presentation of the
names of Chauncey r. Black, Robert
Wright and Hannibal Kline. Black re-
ceived majority on the first ballot and the
nomination was made unanimous. Will
lam Barclay. of Pit.sburg, was chosen for
secretary of internal affairs. by accla-
nation. Adjourned.

TACOMA, July 2.-Another very small
crowd turned out today to see the game
between the local nine and the Portlands,
perhaps 80. Tacoma led off by making
two runs in the first inning and in the fifth
added two more alter two men were
out. Portland made one in the fourth, and
in the sixth scored two earned runs. In
the sixth inning, after Parrot bad gone
out on a pop fly to McCabe, Whitta-
ker hit over second and PARROT followed
with drive over the center field fence for
home run, bringing Whitaker in from
first. Parrott's hit is thought to be
the longest ever made on the
ground. The game was slow and not
marked by exceptionally brilliant playing.
Brittian and Hassamer's fine work at short
stop, and PARROTS home run were the feat
ures. Only three hits were made off Favor's
delivery. Following is the score:

Superintendent Porter telegraphed TO

trouble. Mr.. Speer sent back a message
which did Mr.. Porter's heart good. He
said there had been ample time, and the
count was accurate. Some of the districts
had been gone over a second time to verify
this. He closed by saying he was satisfied
he had done good job. but he would not
try to keep up with the newspapers and
boomers in their ideas of population.
