JERRY NOT YET COUNTED OUT

Kansas City Times: Mr.. William
district OF Kansas, writes to the
Times that, Notwithstanding the OPP
position to Jerry Simpson, on account
of his opposition to third party, the
people have tried him and know his
worth, and that the great Unsocked is
all right IN the Big Seventh
The Times is inclined to hold with
Mr.. Kenton that Jerry is not lost in
this last shuttle. a man with his
tongue cannot be effaced so instantane
ously, and he has learned more of
practical politics in the last six months
than most of the third party leaders
will learn in twelve months which will
elapse before nominations begin again.
He has his first congressional record yet
in pectore. The third party will be able
to look to only a few congressman, and
Jerry stands at their head. He will be
pretty high up all next winter, and at
Washington a politician has inestima-
BILE advantages over the aspirant who
stays at home at the opening of a pres
ldential year. The man at home has
some advantages, but net those which
count for most at such time.
Another point in Mr.. Simpsons favor
is that he never gets out of his head.
Occasionally weak idea drops from
him, but he does not appear to go crazy
over it He is hard of head and has a
| sense of humor-qualities not be des-
pissed in politician. Either Davis or
Otis, among his alliance congressional
colleagues, could give him long start
in stated debate on an abstract sub
| ject, and beat him. In a rough and
tumble. every day, up and down cam
paign Jerry would get ON faster.
If the third party makes Roadway
the ex-sailor will not be in the rear. He
! has a long start and has made friends. .

REPUBLICAN RESOLUTIONS.

The republican party has kept alive
the lie started by one of its own clack-
ers in regard to the old soldier resolu-
ton adopted by the Kansas Reform
Press Association.
A few days ago the republican editors
of the Seventh congressional district
met at Hutchinson. They also adopt
ed a few resolutions. Suppose the Re-
form press should give them a dose of
their own medicine, and forge a resolu-
ton. The following is what the con-
ventiOn thought, even if it did say
something else:
Resolved, By the republican press of the
Seventh congressional district, That we are in
favor of disseminating all pensions to old sol
diers who so far forget their allegiance to
their country as to cease voting the republican
ticket, and we hereby demand of such old sol
diers as vote the alliance ticket, an immediate
return to the national treasury of all money
drawn by them since they began voting such
ticket

G. o. p. papers are not copying every

ent. John j. is greater man to-day
than ever before. He has come to his
senses. We don't want the g. o. p. to
forget its old god, and we reproduce
his latest utterances. In notable ar
ticle IN the current issue of Truth, Mr..
John J. Ingalls, discusses Harrison
and Cleveland" He regards the renom-
ination of both certain. Concerning
that of Harrison, he says:
Anything else would be illogical. 1t would
be confession that the work of republican
congress was a failure; that protection was a
fake, and that the accusations of parliamentary
tyranny and legislative extravaganza were
true. The issues are made up already. The
battle has begun.
"If the admonitions of the reserves of 1890
are needed, then success is possible, though
the battle will be desperate, but unless there is
radical readjustment, pronounced concession,
sharp departure from venerable methods and
precedents, it will hardly be worth while to go
through with the formality of a convention.

bringing thousands of votes over to
the movement. The delegates were en-
Unused, and openly vowed to 90 home
and work harder than ever before. The
Citizens Alliance was put upon its feet,
and hundreds of organizers were init
ated, and commissioned for the work.
Cheering reports were received from
nearly all the states, and facts were
presented which led us to believe that
the Peoples Party will stand more
chance of electing a president next
year than either of the old parties. 1t
is fight to the death with the republic
cans any way. If the Peoples Party is
not successful, it will carry enough
states to throw the election into the
house of representatives, and a demo-
cratic president will be the result. We
beg the republicans to come TO our
help, that such result may be avoided.
We cannot go to either old party; we
are rebels if unsuccessful, but patriots
if we succeed. The two old parties are
off the track. We are right; we are
working for the laboring masses: sue
cess is bound to come sooner or later,
and we ask the support and active help
of all who can unite on the st. Louis
platform-Of all who can lay aside par
ty allegiance and vote for their own
best interests.
The new party has sprung into exist
ence. There can be no going back
ward. A convention will be held next
year and presidential ticket nOmlnat-
ed. We can elect that ticket, but we
must have no faint-hearted leaders.
Here is the only point where doubt
can come in. We want men and wom-
en- all oyer the United States to work
for the cause as Kansas worked last
year, and victory is as certain as cleo
ton day.

They Stick to a Lie.

ED. INDEX: In the Cresset of May
18th, Veteran" seems to worry about
the resolution which he claims was ad-
opted by the Reform Press Association.
This resolution is known as the Mere
dith resolution, as Meredith was the
man who published it in the Interior
Herald, claiming it was adopted by the
Reform Press Association.
1t is a clearly proven fact that this
resolution NEss forgery, proven by Is
responsible persons, and sworn to.
This is the correct resolution:
Resolved, That we pledge ourselves to the
support of every measure that shall tend to
render justice to the old soldiers by way of
service pensions, and making the money in
which they were paid while in the service equal
to that which was paid to the bondholder, i'll
dependent of party utilization, as we fully be-
lieve legislation relating to soldiers should be
effected independently of politics, and we con-
denim any and all movements of Old soldiers
as political organization
This was published in the Advocate
of March 4th, and on pages and Z of
the Advocate of May 18th together with
testimony that it is the correct resolu-
ton.
Senator PETER is a strong advocate OF
a service pension law. Simpson was
elected upon platform that demands
service pension law, and also that the
government pay the deficiency in the
value of the money paid the soldiers
He made a speech in Washington a
short time ago to that effect, for which
the southern democratic papers are
raising cry. Why? Because this does
not suit the democrats, and is straight
alliance doctrine.
He speaks of the southern states tax
ing care of the eX-confederate soldiers
We go great deal farther than that
We demand that the United States
government take care of the Union sol
diers, irrespective of party utilization.
w. G. MATTHEWS.

1t is perhaps strange to some people
THAT the democratic organs should de-
nounce the Cincinnati convention as
playing into the hands of the republi-
can party for net adopting prohibition
and anti-tariff planks, and then to hear
the republicans say that it was playing
into the hands of the democrats by not
adopting something else. The conven-
tion did adopt strong anti-tariff plank
1t put out platform to suit itself, with
out regard to either old party. 1t put
an income tax plank into the platform,
which is rank anarchy to both old par
ties. 1t favored government control of
railroads, which is distilled poison to
both old parties. The convention kept
''in the middle of the road" The two
old parties are so far apart that as each
one looked toward the new party it
seemed to the observer that the new
party must have joined with the Oppo-
sition. Come nearer the road and take
another look, and see that the Opposi-
..ioa is as far of as you have been.
