The Condition that Oonftonts U..


The state of Kansas has been under
the control of one political party from
the day when she was admitted into
the Union until now. The dominant
party has become so strongly entrenched
That nomination has been equivalent
t0anelectiOn with but one exception
in twenty-five years. The result has
been that any one who could succeed
In securing nomination was sure of
an election no matter how corrupt or
incompetent he might be. Thiss con-
dition of things has had tendency to
destroy all independence of thought or
action in members of the dominant
party, and make it mere machine in
the hands of few who have ruled the
party with an iron hand for the SUBJ
serviency of party ends without regard
to the public welfare. The legislature
has ceased to represent the popular will,
and obeyed the dictates of party leaders,
created useless state Offices to make
places for partisan workers at the
expense of the taxpayers. The men,
bers of congress that have been elected
represent the interests of the east
as against the west, until the people
have become aroused and demand a
change. There are different interests
that demand change hf state policy
and the breaking up of the machine
rule that has cursed the state for wears
and kept men in congress and in con-
troll of the state government who have
shown no regard for the peoples inter-
ests. All those who represent these !
different interests and measures are
aiming at the same object-to destroy
machine rule, and bring the govern
ment in harmony with the best inter-
sests of the whole people of the state.
The farmers and producers demand
such legislation as will give themiproper
relief, apd the consumers Of the cities
demand such laws as will make munic-
ipal government less expensive and
more effective. The only way to secure
these reforms is by q union of the
different interests upon set of men
