ET TU STACEY.

II would seem from the following letter re-
Celved by an Alliance man In this county from
an Alliance leader In Topeka that even Colonel
times OF Alliance Doodle. The letterwas private,
but che writer was allowed 10 read and copy the
following portion:
"The daily paper scheme Is taking shape, but
not enough money is yet subscribed TO warrant
calling the committee together We have many
applications for editorial management, the latest
being A. G. Stacey, the man who represented
the Kansas City Journal here the past two years.
He knows all about The Republicans, and Is sore
about not getting some appointment he wanted
from the Governor, 30 Is in a good state Of mind
10 give them ats. Elder and McGnth both say
he Is too unsCupulOus, but we can watch him,
and his inside knowledge OF the Republicans Is
valuable, l think. He wants an answer by the
lst Of May. HIltehinSOR NeiOs.
The above is q very suggestive
item IL genuine. Those who are fa-
miliar with the character and reputa-
tion Of Mr.. Stacey will at once recOg-
nize the peculiar quality Of his quail
fications 10 conduct an Alliance daily
paper. Do Messrs. Elder and Nc
Grath know anything about this mat
teri II they do we would like to
hear from them. We are decidedly
in favor Of the establishment of an
Alliance daily in this city, aud would
be glad to see any good man at the
head Of IL; but in order 10 merit the
confidence aud support which such
paper should receive it's editor should
be capable under favorable CirCum-
stances of occasionally telling tho
truth.

HONESTY THE BEST POLICY.

Kansas Republican papers, with
the exception OF a most insignificant
few, contain some very refreshing
editorial matter recently. The edi-
tors have evidently heard something
drop. We are glad TO see these evi-
dences Of even q late repentance.
They are willing to acknowledge now
that there is just the least little bit Of
justice in the complaints OF the peo-
pie, though they have been calling
these same people anarchists and
calamity howlers 80 recently. What
these patriots are saying now is vol
untary confession Of dishonesty dur
ing the recent campaign. As Senator
Murdock expresses il, they wanted
TO elect their ticket first and look for
the truth afterwards" This is where
they missed it. Kansas has always
been Republican, and if Republican
journals throughout the state had
been honest and concentrated their
united influence IN demanding need
ed reforms, told the truth and treated
the farmers movement with courtesy
and respect, they would not have wit
messed the recent landslide. We ask
Editors Murdock and EasIey to be
honest and answer us il this is not
true9 And while upon this subject
will they please answer another ques-
tiOn also2 DO they propose to be as
frank and honest as they apparently
are at this time, in the next campaign,
or will they be back again at their
old tricks seeking "to elect their
ticket first and look for the truth af-
terwardT We submit that the peo-
pie would have more confidence in
them if they should look for the truth
first regardless Of its effect upon the
ticket

THE LAND LOAN ELL.


We are not yet ready to begin the
discussion of this measure, but will
remark at this time that Senator
StanfOrd's bill, which is being so
strongly urged by the National Vie1O
and some other Stanford organs, will
not receive Che support of the ALI
snCe or Of the large body Of people
who are really in favor of the policy
Ofgovernment loans on real estate Sc
Curity. Without at this time enter
ing Upon detailed statement Of the
reasons for Objecting to this bill it
may be stated in brief that two e1-
Ceedingly important reasons exist why
il should not and will not become a
law. The first Of these reasons is
that the people who are demanding
this kind OF Legislation are not in "a
vor Of unlimited loans. The purpose
OF land loan legislation is to aid
mortgaGed debtors to save their
homes and not to afford large holders
Of real estate the opportunity to bor-
row large amounts Of money for spec
ulative purposes.
The second reason for serious OBJ
lection to this bill is that the money
which it provides shall be issued for
the purposes Of the bill, is not a full
legal tender. IL would not pay inter
est on the public debt. The people
feel that there has already been suf-
fioient discrimination in favor of the
holders Of government bonds, and
they will never favor any more of il.
: While we shall favor Che principle
Of land loans we are unalteTably Op-
posed to the Stanford bill

VAIsITYTNG RECORDS.

A. g. Stacey, the Topeka cores
pondent Of the Kansas City Journal
is writing history % in these latter
days. We call attention to an article
in another column which treats Of q
portion of this history, Mr. Stacey
was secretary Of the late Kansas State
Senate, and il would therefore be
presumed that he is not altogether
ignorant of the record Of the pro-
ceedings Of that body. What must q
man think OF himself, and what must
he expect the people will think Of
him, who will thus Wilfully fSlsify
public records9 He would make q

EDITOR ADvOCATR;-When' the Alliance
voted 10 take separate action In politics, did that
introduce politics into the Alliance. Please
answer through TIE ADVOCATE and Oblge,
Yours truly, X. M. KERBY.
The Alliance did not vote 10 take
separate action in politics. The con-
vention that met in Topeka and re-
solved upon the organization Of an In
dependent party was composed Of
members OF the Alliance Of the
Knights Of Labor, Of the Grange and
Of the +. M B. A. The Alliance un-
doubtedly went into politics, but it
did not necessarily take politics into
the Alliance. The Alliance is edu-
cational. The Peoples party is an
outgrowth Of Alliance education, but
is an entirely different institution.

FALsEHOOD2

WNVho Jo0hOllhA uihbHAop WAh bAhu VA
Cloud and Republic counties, was the
only member OF the Peoples party in
the Senate Of forty members. He
was the only Kansas State Senator
elected in 1880, and he was chosen TO
fill out the une1pired term OF the late
Hon. Il, E. swearingen, who died by
his own hand.
Senator Wheeler was made chair
man OF the committee on immigration
and was q member Of the committee
on agriculture, cities Of the third class,
fees and salaries, mileage and per
diem, and on roads and bridges He
was one Of the six Senators who paid
a tribute 10 the memory OF his de-
ceased predecessor.
The Kansas City Journal which
would seem 10 be the direct organ OF
the Republican state central commit
tee, and OF those employed in writing
special Republican "manifestOes,"
says this OF the only Peoples party
State Senator:
An act TO prohibit the employment Of children
under n years OF age was defeated by the vote
OF Senator Wheeler, Alliance member OF that
body no casting the deciding vote.
On general principles il might seem
TO be an act of folly TO notice the CON
slant and varied untruths that the
Republican press teens with, con-
Cerning the Peoples party; yet, as
Senator Wheeler has some Legislative
history, THE ADVOCATE here presents
fragment Of his Senatorial record.
The Senate journal Of January 20,
has this:
by Senator Wheeler Senate bin No. iiG, An
act requiring all public, private and municipal
corporations existing under the laws OF thla
state TO pay their employees their salaries and
wages weekly In lawful money and providing
penalties for the violations OF the provisions Of
this act.
The journal Of January II shows
this:
by Senator Osborn(by Tequest) Senate bllli22,
an act 70 prohibit tho employment Of children UNI
der fourteen years Of age, and providing for the
repeal OF an laws In conflict with thls act and
regulating the employment Of children under
sixteen years under certain conditions.
The journal of January 10 contains
the following on second reading and
and reference OF bills TO the standing
committee on manufacturing and In
dustrid pursuits;
Senate bill No. iis, an act declaring the arst
Monday In each year legal holiday.
Senate bill No. 122, an aCt TO prohibit the en-
plOyment OF children under fourteen years Of
age, and providing for the repeal Of laws In con-
fiCt with this act, and regulating the employ.
ment Of children under sixteen years Of age un-
der certain conditions.
AS Is seen by the journal of January
2l, Senate bill No. lag, introduced by
Senator Wheeler, was referred by
Lieutenant Governor Felt, president
of the Senate e@ o6lciO, to the conn
mittse on corporations, but later, on
motion Of Senator Wheeler, it was
referred 10 the committee on manu-
featuring and industrial pursuits, of
which Senator Carroll, of Leaven-
worth was chairman.

EveRY pEMooRAT a LEADER.

EVERY DEMOShAl LEADGh'
The Democratic party expects every
man to do his duty.
Democracy signifies the party Of the
people; an organization Of honest, de-
voted, intelligent and capable citizens
who mean TO attend 70 their own bust
ness. The citizsns Of this class are
leaders themselves; they do not need In
siructions aud command they themselves
instruct and command,
A little thought will satisfy some OBJ
iectors and critics that the present con
dition OF the Democratic party is normal
and right. Democracy is the antithesis
Of Republlcanism the Democratic party,
it's methods, aims, principles aud hope Of
the future are as different from those Of
the Republican party as day differs from
night.
The Democratic party could not
nourlsh Higginsism; there is no place in
the Democratic party for Senator Higgins
or his kitchen cabinet of utensils of home
production or imported from Pennsyl-
vania. They are not the sort of fish who
could swim In Democratic waters
aud he Is not the sort of leader
whom the Democrats would or could fol.
low. Hence the dissatisfied longings for
leader who would take up the business
Of the people, pay their taxes for them,
tell them how to vote, reward the worst
and most importunate OF them with posi-
tions, are the results Of misconception
Of the abiding principle of Democracy as
they are contrary to and subversive Of
the only hope Of this country namely
that the people are willing and capable
Of taking care Of their own affairs-th'
Democratic party expects every man &c
do his dHty.
The long lease Of power the Republi
can party has held has corrupted politics
to spolls-huntiag, to 'protectionism' FOL
private industries, to liberal pension
paying, to subsidy grabbing, to all sorts
Of schemes fer lootiRg the Treasury I'll
politics are nothing more nor less thar
money getting.
The Republicans have reduced al
questions to the size and appeal
anee Of a dollar. Their PLATFORM
offer little or nothing other than dollai
schemes; offer no principle, whatever
for the consideration Of the people, bu
how to get the almighty dollar" The,
promise protective tariffs to the rich
wages to the poor, and pay cash to tn
negro,
II is not difficult for a Democrat t
lead himself Alright on that matter
Every Democrat can answer for him
self. the spesious sophistry OF the ma
aud the party who wants the dollar, n
matter whether he begs, lies or threaten
to get It.
II is the dollar he wants whether /
begs, lies or threatens.

Sussex would buy, in their ignorance
and disloyalty, the foreign rather than
the home article, I'VE would impose
tax on the foreign article and compel
them to buy the Treat article at higher
price. We, the Republican party, are
bitter merchants than the people-and
Of course, more loyal
The statement of the Georgetown Re
publican is simply paraphrase Of our
shorter statement Of imposing tax on
the people Of Sussex to support the Treat
factories. The. effect is precisely tine
same, the people practically pay bounty
to certain industries which deserve nc
more aims than certain other industries,
farming, for instance.
1t is as much the duty of the people Of
Sussex county to impose tax on them
selves 10 start and maintain the Treat
factories ia the interest Of private owners
as It is the business and the duty Of tbs
people Of the entire country to do that
same thing for the tinplate and the

msnts, specious, fallacious, ignorant, In
terested. and fraudulent as they un
doubtedly have been as urged by Med
ringhaus and Edmuuds for Vernon
maple sugar, and for Pennsylvania tin
plate. apply with equal force to starting
the Treat factories,
II the principle is correct in the maple
sugar and the tin plate cases it is appli
cable also to the Treat factory.
Ifitis nots right to seize one mans
property to adj to another mans profits
or to build up his private industry ther
it does not matter by what indirectior
the thing is accomplished; it is still
