speaker of the present legislature with
out opposition, the Republicans and
Democrats joining the Alliance members
in supporting him.
For several days after the election in
November it was widely believed that
John f. Willis, candidate of the
Peoples party, had been elected gov
ernor. But the complete returns showed
that he had been defeated by trife
over 5000 votes. When Ingalls, was
elected to the senate eighteen years ago
Willis was Republican member of the
house, but voted for Congressman David
P. Low as against Ingalls,, At the re-
cent Ocala convention Willis was made
national lecturer of the Alliance at a
salary of $1,000 year.
Persistent and everlasting hostility to
loan companies is probably the thing
which characterizes most widely mem
bers of the Alliance. In view of this it
may occasion some surprise to learn that
one of the prominent Alliance men has
been an employee until recently of loan
company. This is John E. Breidenthal,
of Labette county. He has just reached
his thirty-ffth year. His present prom
inence is due undoubtedly to his having
lost his position with the loan company
ON account Of his advocacy OF the peo-
pies cause during the last campaign.
During the seventeen years of his resi-
dcnce in Kansas Breidenthsl has been
identified with all Of the Greenback and
Peoples party movements.

wrongly, was asked to define "unleav

said: Jesus was always telling his fol

The country was shocked last Fri
day morning to learn of the death OF
Secretary Window, which occurred
Thursday evening in New York
The Secretary was attending a board
of trade banquet and had just taken
a seat after making mastery finan-
cial speech, when suddenly he grew
deathlv pale and fell from his chail
and died in few minutes.
The Secretary was a native of
Ohio but moved to Minnesota in
1855. Since that time he has repre-
scented his state in both branches of
Congress, and was appointed Secre-
tary of the treasury by President
Garfield, but upon the accession of
Arthur resigned, and was again sent
by his state to the upper house. Pres
ident Harrison gave him the Secre-
taryship of the treasury, position
that he has very faithfully filed.

Pfeffer, the newly elected Senator
from Kansas, who is rated by some
of the organs as a Republican, lays
down the following as his platform
awe are opposed to the govern
ment issuing money to banking COR
porations; we are opposed to the peo-
pies money getting to them freighted
down with interest charges; we be-
lieve in the people making their own
money; we are opposed to national
banking institutions, for the reason
that their aid combines against the
masses; we believe in the govern
ment which is simply the agent of the
people, issuing their money directly to
them, without going around Robin
Hoods barn to find them; we believe
in equal and just taxation we are OPP
posed to the taxing of one industry
for the support of another; we are
opposed to high tariff dues upon any
article of common use no matter
what.
"We believe that free trade, abso-
lutte in many articles, is ofttimes the
very best form of protection. We
believe in raising revenue to de-
fray the expenses of the government,
and after that in the adjustment of
duties. Let us get out of the adjust.
ment all the good that we can for
our own people, remembering that we
are Americans, not Englishmen or
Germans, or of any other nation.
We believe in distributing the bur-
dens of taxation Or the benefits of
government equally among the the
people as Tar as 1t is possible to do so.
In other words, we believe in the peo-
pie ruling this country.
'We are opposed to and against
prosperity in New York while there
is stringency in every family here.
We ask for the free and unlimited
coinage of silver. Then comes the
bill. We ask for reduc-
ton of tariff duties instead of an in
crease which this bill has added to
the taxes already heaped high upon
the people l started out to assist this
farmers movement, and thanks to
the Master first and the people of
Kansas next, we have succeeded.
Here is one of the fruits of it."
