Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1890-12-15

The daily papers tell us Of the i'm
portant bills now being considered,
and to be considered, by congress at
the present session. The pension law
is to be changed; we are to Lave
free coinage of silver; the Mckinley
bill is to be Overhauled, etc, etc.
How queer! WHY were not those
things attended to last session? The
way the thing now stands, the time
put in by congress was thrown away
for the laws they passed must be
changed. 1t is Onlv a repetition of
history, though. Silve: was demoni-
TIED in 1873, we believe. The Green
back party was organized, End made
such inrOads into the Republican
party that the LEADER began TO
hedge" and silver was rcmone'ize'l.
When they thought the people had
almost forgotten the matter, they
again undertook To demonctize The
white metal: but again they were M t
with a rebuke, aud again tl.ey are
trying to hedge" 1t won't do.
Those fellows are not 10 be trusted
any longer. What is more, The peO-
pie don't propose to trust them. We
want new deal all around, and we
are going to have it.

THE favorite idea of the Farmers
Alliance seems to be that the prOhib-
itory law be so amended that II the
liquor be sold by the state agents in
stead Of at drug stores.-Burltngton
NonpareU (Rep.)
The favorite idea of nine out of
ten members of the Farmers Alliance
not only ''secms to be- but is, in ia
vor of prohibition, pure and simple.
They don't want liquor sold at all,
either by state agents or drug stores.
Our present law is satisfactory. All
we ne need is officers who will see
that the law is observed.

Sol is right, in the main, but he
makes sad mistake when he sug-
gests cutting off the appropriation to

Who Will Be The Next Senator?

I
| Ed. News: Who will be the mex
senator from Kansas? That is tn
question. The Demo Republican
sheets say that ingalls, will draw
enough from the Alliance represent.
atives to elect him. If they can ge
any consolation out Of the repetition
Of such stories, they are certainly
welcome, for the Lord knows there il
mighty little consolation for the poor
devils, anyway. If every county was
as particular in choosing their repre-
sentative as old Linn was, there will
be no black sheep III the next legisla'
ture.
The associated press has already
elected two or three United States
senator's to succeed ingalls,, besides
returning ingalls, three or four times.
1t is amusin' in the extreme, but the
poor fellows must do. suthin'.
The idea seems to be prevalent that
the men who were elected to the
house this fall are going to be so ter
ribly muddled that part of them
will be trapped by the ingalls, crowd
in spite of themselves. wonder il
they think that the caucus rule won't
work both ways?
When the railroads, banks and 9TH
er monied concerns desire to pick out
a man that will do their bidding,
they have a caucus, and each of the
gang agrees, before vote is cast, to
stand by the man who receives the
majority of votes. Then when a
man has been chosen by that body
he is virtually elected, as the whole
body vote as one man in the open
vote. The above is the way monopO-
ly gets its henchmen to the front. 1t
is poor rule that won't work both
ways.
The OIL members of the house
should have caucus, with closed
doors, before vote is ever taken, and
let the majority decide who their
man is; and when the first vote is
taken on joint ballot, the United
States senator will be elected, and he
will be the best man i'm the state for
the place, for a majority of our AL
lance representative will have de-
cded in his favor because of his true
worth.
Opinions differ as TO who should be
the next senator, but the kind Of ma

Illness Was the Result of an As

A Young Girl Who Declares Her
Illness Was the Result of an As
sauIt.
Miss Mary Nagel, the eighteen-year-
old.daughter of Otto Nagel, who owns
saloon Oh Seventh street, was suddenly
taken i'll last Friday afternoon at
the house of Edgar S. Maurice,
"a Dearborn street west. A physi
clan was called, who pronounced it
severe case of peritonitis. Miss Nagel
told the physician and Mr.. and Mrs.
Maurice that she had quarreled with
her stepmother Oh the preceding day.
and that her stepmother had thrown
her down and kicked her in the
back, shoulders and abdomen, and
that this illness was the result of in
juries inflicted at that time. She added
that both she and her stepmother had
left home after the quarrel, and that
she had spent the night with friend
on the west side of the river.
On her way back to her home
on the following day. she felt so badly
that she was compelled to stop at the
house of Mr.. Maurice. DR.. Y. j. Haw
kins, who is attending her, said that
careful examination revealed no evil
denceS of external violence except
some slight bruises about the Shout
ders. On the abdomen and back,
the seat of the alleged injury, there
were none. He said that it was posi-
BILE, though not probable. that peri
tonitis could be set up by external vio-
fence that would leave no confusion.
Miss Nagel was removed yesterday to
her home on the corner of Belmont and
Ohio streets. where she now lies almost
at the point of death. She was too i'll to
be seen by the GLOBE reporter, and her
father and stepmother declined 10 say
anything whatever as to the cause of
her illness. At the time of the alleged
attack there was no one present but
Miss Nagel and her stepmother.

Greece never had a waterfall hundred
and fifty feet high. Go on. gentlemen,
you are doing well. No nation ever lost
its liberties that had waterfall hun
dred and fifty feet high" He said he
told the man: my friend, that
a state should have 10000 lakes
is remarkable. Massachusetts had
her Emerson and her Phillips, but
Massachusetts never had 10000 lakes.
Virginia had her Lee and her Jackson,
but Virginia never saw the day that she
had 10000 lakes. Georgia had her
Stevens, her ToombS and her Hill, but
nhver in her history could she boast of
10000 lakes. Go on, my friend, you are
doing well. No state ever came to ruin
that had 10000 lakes" He thought men
were more important to grow i'll states
than lakes or real estate; that it took
men to make state great.
DIR. Lee leaves st. Paul with many
strong friends. His preaching has been
of the highest order. He has made a
great impression on the Northwest. His
lectures at the assemblies have won
high praise. DR.. Smith has shown his
judgment in leaving with his church in
his absence two of the brightest men in
America, Rev. John Dewitt Miller and
DR.. j. w. Lee. Many of the people IN
this section had already read DR.. Lees
productions in the magazines and Pc
riodicals of the day, but his lectures and
sermons have given them higher and
better idea of his genius. One Of Dr..
Smiths members said yesterday that
when their pastor took vacation again
DR.. Lee would be invited to come back.

SAINT PAUL.
A TYPICAL SUNDAY.

Yesterday was busy day at the yari-
GUS pleasure resorts.
Every kind of vehicle was pressed
into service to convey people to Lake
Gervais. During the week hundreds OF
thousands citizens visited the scene OF
last Sundays cyclone, but yesterdays
contingent was equal to those OF any
other two days. The lake shore was
literally black with people. Never nave
there been so many seen at this popuia,I,
lake, and probably there never Will
again. The relic hunters nave carried
away what pieces there remained OF liie
Schurmeier and Good FURNITURE, anu
but for their unportaDle charactel,
what remained OF the cottages Woulo
by now have completely disappeared.
The huge proportions of st. Paul were
never so clearly demonstrated as yes
terday. There were many who Qought
that the whole population OF the city
must be at Lake Gervais. But no; q
visit to Groveland Park. Silver lake ana
White Bear lake conclusively proved
this to be tallacious. Since its opening
the Grand avenue electric line. on sun
day. has been patroniZed by fully 5.OoO
passengers. The ride on the electric
ears. especially on sultry day, is the
most enjoyable one to be obtained here
abouts. The breeze created by the
train as it careers along Grand avenue
at fully fifteen miles an hour is most de-
lightful. The cars were crowded all
YESTERDAY. There were many picnic
parties to .Groyeland Park, while large
numbers availed themselves of the
steamer which plies from this point to
Minnehaha Falls and the soldiers
home.
The extra equipment which has been
furnished the North st. Paul line was
thoroughly tested yesterday. Several
thousands visited North st. Paul, Silver
lake ana vicinity. Silver lake is be-
coming a very popular Sunday resort
since the opening of the North st. Paul
railway 1t is charming spot for PIC
mic parties.
Tie union depot was crowded yester-
day morning. White Bear has probably
never drawn a bigger crowd from the
city,. The CONCERTS given at the Rama
lev pavilion are one of the attractions.
although-the desire to spend the day i'll
pure and unadulterated' recreation
was the main attraction. There is no
better place for putting in an enjoyable
as well as reereatlye day than White
Bear.

ing will be given the grand opening

promises to be an excellent musical en-
tertanment. Tomorrow evening will
be given the tennis hop, at which
very large number of st. Paul people
will be present. For "Wednesday even
ing the management has planned
moonlight lake excursion on the steamer
City of st. Louis, and for Thursday
evening sailing party. Friday even
ing occurs the grand tennis hop, dis
tinct from the other event, but with no
other difference than that shown in the
name, and the probability that the at
tendance will be large. On Saturday
evening regular hop will be given at
the hotel, followed by the presentation
of prizes. The committees having
charge of the events have heretofore
been published. Already 300 guests
from the. Twin Cities have engaged

SARCASM In A SERMON.

Problem and Gets in Local

Rev. DIR. Lee Talks on the Negro
Problem and Gets in Local
Shot.
Rev. DR.. Lee, of Atlanta, Ca. stated
yesterday that he would leave for the
South Monday night. He has been
preaching at the Peoples church for
the past month. His sermon yesterday
was on "The Race Problem from
Southern Standpoint" and was a
most brilliant discourse. He said God
was doing great things for the negro.
That he permitted him to be stolen
from Africa, and sold to the people OF
New England. But the climate was
too cold there for him. So he was sold
to the people of the South. For hum
bred and fifty years the Southern peo-
pie had him In great agricultural and
chronological school, teaching him how
to talk English, how to farm. how to
cook. how to wear clothes, how to be
civilized man. while the North, without
property interest in him, had been
growing conscience on freeing him
The South taught him civilization, and
the North grew conscience with ref
erenee to his freedom. Both were neceS-
sary to the progress of the black man.
To the South, however, belongs most
credit, for it did the greatest work. 1t
was an easy matter for New England to
grow a firSt-claSS conscience on queS-
ton in which she had no money in
vested. If New England had kept the
negro the South would have been under
the necessity of raising the conscience
to free him. God wanted both things.
II faA az x,ili
and. i'm good time, conscience for his
freedom. He said the South was pre-
pairing a thousand negroes a year
for the purpose of civiliZing AT
rica. and he said the 100000
of negroes in the South had more clothes.
and more education and more money
than the 200,000.000 of negroes in Africa.
He paid glowing tribute to the energy
and thrifto OF the Northwest, but thought
the people were exhauSting themselves
in the mere getting of money. He
could hear nothing but the value OF
real estate front foot and the cost OF
ten-story buildings and the lengtn OF
grip railroads. One man told him they
had the highest and the longest bridge
in st. Paul on earth. Not the highest.
and not the longest, but length and
height taken together, they had the
man told him they had 10000 lakes in
Minnesota. Lakes he thought were good
things to have, but not all that went
to make a state great. He was re-
minded by this statement of Daniel
Webster's speech in Rochester. Gen
tlemen of Rochester" said he. 81 am
