Every nice letter' formally address
ed to the central committee. Now
when Mr.. Lieurance accepted the
Peoples nomination he distinctly
stated that he had not accepted the
Democratic nomination-leaving the
plain inference that he would not do
so-and declared his unqualified en-
dorsement of the Peoples platform.
And when he acc pied the Democrat
ic nomination-as Col. Jones says he
has-he undoubtedly endorsed the
Democratic platform. But the Peo-
ple's platform de-, lres in favor of all
form Of paterna,ism, in favor of the
sub-t-sasury scheme, and in favor of
Government ownership of railroads,
while the Democratic platform de-
clares its emphatic opposition to all
forms paternalism, to the sub-tleasury
scheme and to the Government owner
ship of railroads. Yet Mr.. Lieurance
endorses both these platforms.
Is it principles" or "spiles" he is
after?
What has been said of Mr.. Lieu
rance, the head of the Peoples ticket,
may be said with equal truth of Mr..
Purdom, its tail. Mr.. Purdom has
always been known as Democrat
until last fall when he took up with
the new party. He does not seem to
have taken up with it to sufficient
degree, however, to have lost cast
with his old associates, for they made
him their nominee for commissioner.
And Notwithstanding this evidence
of prior claim, the new party also
accepted him as its nominee for conn.,
missioner. So Mr.. Purdom finds him.
self in what would seem to be the
painful and embarrassing position OF
riding two horses going in opposite di-
rections at the same time. AS the can
didate of the Democratic party Mr..
Purdom is in honor bound to oppose
the sub-treasury scheme, and the
Government ownership of railroads
and all forms of paternalism. AS the
candidate of the Peoples party Mr..
Purdom is in honor bound to favor the
sub-treasury scheme, and the Govern
ment ownership of railroads and all
forms of paternalism.
Is it principles" or "spiles" he is
after?
If there are any of the delegates who
attended the Peoples convention who
really endorse Mr.. Hayward's senti-
ment, who really believe that their
party is organized for principles and
not for spoils, it seems to us they
should be asking Mr.. Lieurance and
Mr.. .Purdom some very emphatic ques-
tions. Are they Democrats or are
they Peoples party men? If they are
Democrats how do they justify them
selves for declaring their hearty ap-
proval of the Peoples platform? II
they are Peoples party men how did
they manage to fool the Democrats in
to nominating them and why did they
privately assure the Democratic hosses
that they are ''just as good Democrats
as they ever were?" Which party is
it that they are playing false to? And
finally
Is it principles" or "spiles'' they
are after?

WE do not desire fusion with the
Democrats for the reason that there is
nothing to fuse with. We have de-
stroyed that party in Kansas, leaving
nothing of it but a few superannuated
fossils, whom we do not want. Even
they will soon come piteously begging
to be taken in, and I suppose we will,
in charity, give them resting place"
Prank McGruth.
We commend the remarks by the
President Of the Kansas Alliance to
the Democrats in Allen county, il
there are any, who still believe that
the Democratic party, in the classic
language of Pap Hayward, stands for
principles and not spiles." What
call is there for any Democrat to give
his support to party which declares
through its official head that it has nc
use for him and only endures his pres.
ence and assistance as a matter Of
charity?

Mr. Choguill spoke for about an hour and a
reciprocity was a humbug and the tariff was q
fraud, but good thing he did say, was to ad-
wise them to read all sides, books, papers, mag
azines and everything, and then make up their
minds; which is far different from what some
of them advise. Mr.. Rager spoke but few
minutes when the rain came and everyone
sought such shelter as lest they could, many
not waiting for it to stop to go home. Mr..

THE Ft. Scott Lantern is a radical
Peoples party paper, but it still has
some regard for truth and some State
pride add loyalty, and in a recent is
sue it makes this vigorous protest
against the falsehoods and ISLANDERS Of
the leaders of its party:
The publication of the National
Economist that Kansas people owed
S464 ,000, 600 was monstrous falsehood
but not more foolish and damaging
than the statement of Senator Peffer
that 100000 farms Of the United
States are mortgaged. Senator p
ought to know better. Such ridicu
lous statement is a serious reflection
upon the intelligence of any man, and
much more upon that of a United
States Senator and an aspirant to the
presidency. More than this, it is ar
outrage upon the people of Kansas
who repose confidence in his good
sense, to be compelled to suffer dam
age, by such foolish statements from
him.

Is 1T ..PRINCIPLEs" OR ''SPILES:'
We understand that one of the
"pints" made by Pap Hayward at the
late Peoples party county convention
was embodied in the declaration, "It's
principles and not spiles we're after"
The sentiment is a good one and does
Mr.. Hayward infinite credit. But did
the convention for which he assumed
to speak give practical endorsement of
the sentiment?
The convention nominated Mr..
Hiram Lieurance for county treasurer.

became the candidate of the Peoples
party for justice of the peace. But
