is correct in every respect, though not
selling quite as fast IS we would like,
and being obliged to have room for our
holiday goods, we will make prices on

srNAToKPLIMH, OF KANSAS.

one of the most significant features OF con-
temporary political history is the opposition
which senator Plumb, Of Kansas, is raising
10 the passage Of the Mckinley bill in It's
present shape. lie evidently shares the
opinion which Mr.. Blaine has SO recently
expressed a. 10 the uselessucss of the bill 30
far as il bears upon the interests of the
farming classes, and as it is the farming
classes which hc is anxious 10 conciliate IN
order 10 insure his reelection, he is pre-
pared 10 subordinate his general partisan
ship 20 the advancement Of his senatorial
aspirations.
No man in public lie, at this time, has
better opportunity Of understanding iully
and clearly the wishes Of these classes than
Senator Plumb. Kansas ~ pre-emincntly
commonwealth Of farmers. OF great iortil-
ity, this State might justly be expected TO
be the scene where agriculture would reach
the highest pitch of prosperity TO which
the pursuit can DE brought. There are few
parts OF the West, or even of the whole
United states, where the conditions would
seem 10 be a. favorable 10 agricultural sue
cess as in this Commonwealth, and yet no
where il. the distress of the farming classes
more acute than il j. there. One of the
many evidences Of this tact is the following
petition, which was submitted few days
ago TO Judge Nicholson, Of the Eighth Judi
cial District, by the local Farmers Al
. lance:
"a "In view Of the disastrous failure Of
props and the general siringency Of money

The Congressional elections this tall will
be. in some respects. the most important
that have been held in the United states for
many years. whether the Force bill ispassod
and goes into operation or not. Upon the
issue Of these elections will depend the Yer-
diet which the American people Will pass
upon the course Of the Republican party
during the present session OF Congress. 80
far a. can be- judged from the character of
recent events this course has not been such
as to commend that party to the confidence
either Of the North or West, from which
sections it must expect 10 draw its chief
support.
If the Force bill becomes law the strong
probability is that The Republicans will 10y
means Of the rcturnng-hoard system that
will be established under the terms of that
measure. receive considerable acccssions Ia
their delegation in Congress from the south
ern states. The certificates of prma facie
election will be- granted To many iepubli-
cans whose claims to election will rest upon
no substantial basis of fact and Justice; iut
these claims will not be closely inquired into
by Republican House.
II. on the other hand. the Force bill fails
To- pass, and the southern people are allowed
10 give free and mtrammclcd expression
to their preferences in consequence, then all
the chances are in favor Of very large In
crease in the present Democratic represen-
tation from the south. The history of the
present Congress has been such as to make
a very profound impression upon southern
sentiment, and the very natural resentment
which the southern people have felt with
respect TO the attempt of the Republican
majority to pass laws which are directed at
the southern people alone, will lead them t.
vote almost as "A unit in favor Of Demo
cratic candidates. and therefore against the
candidates of the party that has recently
done so much, and with so little provoca-
ton, to east a damper upon the rising IN
dustrial greatness of the Southern states.

wholly unproductiyc of an, influence upon
the action Of the Republican majority IN

sentiments ofihe Republican majority IN the
senate with reference 10 this bill. but upon
the popular opinion Of the country at large
such calm ana moderate. yet such siroh-
and patriotic resolutions rs those passed al
the Columbus mass-mecting on Saturday,
must make "a very favorable impression,
which. in turn. must react in some degree
upon the Republican senators who are re-
luctant toisnore the conservative traditions
which have so long governed the conduct Of
the senate.

appear 10 be wavering or silently opposed
10 the enactment Of the Force bill. would
probably do much TO strengthen similar
feeling. which must prevail in the rank and
file Of the party at large. twill all depend
upon the tone of those mass-meetings. II
the speeches and resolutions are violent and
partisan. they will make little impression
on public sentiment in general. II, ON the
other hand. they are moderate in language
but vigorous in sentiment, they VIII nm
doubiedly exercise powerful influence in
molding public opinion in opposition TO the
Force bill. and thus confirm the leaning oi
those Republican senators who object IN
their hearts to the bill, but are too much
under the control of their party associates
to act upon their private views with refer

The character Of ihe Democratic party
demands that from one end Of the North 10
the other a very strong protest should be
entered by the whole party organization
against the passage Of the bill. specia!
meetings should be called in imitation Of
the Columbus meeting. The sentiments Of
the party should not be left TO conventions
for expression, but should be voiced by the
people directly.
