THE MESSAGE.

The presidents message to Con-
gress is a volumlnous document and
contains nothing of marked signifi-
canoe. He defends the tariff on one
hand and free trade in the guise of
reciprocity on the other. AS q mat
ter of course he is opposed to the free
coinage Of silver, but expresses HIM
self as in favor Of bi-metalism. He
assumes that under existing laws a
parity can be maintained between sill
yer and gold, in which he is doubtless
correct, as the system places silver on
q gold basis. AS straddle on the
questions of tariff and coinage the
message may be taken as a faithful
reflex of the existing chaos in the
present status of old party thought
The advocacy of high tariff and
reciprocal free trade, together with
opposition to free coinage as an argu-
ment in favor of bi-metalism, while
displaying considerable ingenuity,
will not be likely to deceive any hon
est advocate of tariff reform or free
silver. That kind of bi-metalism that
does not provide for absolute free
coinage is delusion and snare.

A Leglslative Tndoraamant.

A law was passed last winter in Minne-
sofa, affecting the sale of alum baking
powders. The interest excited by the
bill when proposed led to long and
thorough investigation by a Legislative
committee Of the qualities Of all the bak-
ing powders sold In that state, with tbs
result that the Royal was shown by very
positive evidence from the state chemist.

UNDER our plutocratic system of
finance the government loans its
credit to the banks and pays them in
terest on the loan. The banks loan
their credit to the people and charge
them interest on the loan. In both
cases the people foot all the bills and
the banks reap all the benefits.

AN OPEN LETTER TO HON. (O J. G. WOOD.


Hon. j. G.. Wood, Topeka, Kansas:
My DEAR SIR:-In the TopekaSCapita
Of Nov. 20, noticed an "open letter tic
Senator Peffer," of which you were the
author. l could not help but think, as
was perusing the lines and digesting the
open, manly, gentlemanly sentiment you
expressed towards an old friend and
neighbor, of what ponderous intellect
1t must have required to show at such
great length the faith that this man Pef-
fer should pursue-this man whose utter
ances in political way you and l have
often cheered, and the emanations from
whose pen we have read with more than
pleasure, SO long as his mind ran in the
channel that the great and glorious crowd
Of which we are proud to be members
had laid down as the gauntlet that kept
all men in, and to break through which
was the signal for hounds to be turned
loose, under the dictation of their masters,
and shatter whatever glory any indlvidu-
al may have attained by his display of
mental courage in the face of the Williams
who would pursue him to the death.
You and are such men of prominence
In Kansas, my dear friend Wood, that of
course the whole world is aching to have
us give ventilation to our ideas of prin-
Clple every little while; and our "open
letters" are 80 full of thought, and 80
vivid with the flashings Of honor and
intelligence that no one can say our light
is hidden under half bushel; indeed, we
cast such a halo of refined sentiment
about US that the whole world must ere
this have become cognizant OF our
meteoric splendor And Kansas has been
subjected to an affront which she will
never recover, in the election of PETER,
30 we must write about him. Our state Is
certainly In q bad fix. This man PETER
must be sat down upon, friend Wood,
and that very hard. In fact, the whole
anatomy of the machine" must be
brought down on him like pile driver.
Yes, sir.
l tell you, Wood, 60 In, take off your
shirt and belittle the man, and hold him |

WORDS OF CHEER.

The Secretary Of Washington State Alliance
Sends Cordial Greeting to Friends aud
CO-WOrkers In Kansas.
To the EdlLJr Of THE ADVOCATE
Hope to gain access to your valuable
columns for a few words to my Old
friends In the Jayhswker state. In look
Ing over various reports, ] find that Kan
sas has become an advanced state Ia this
struggle for liberty, which fact / am
glad to note. Here let me say hurrah
for Kansas and all other states which
have the moral courage to stand for
principles and demand their liberation
from the oppressive bondage Of ShYlock.
While we rejoice In the bravery Of sister
states, we are glad to say that this, ths
infant state, which bears the patriotic
name OF Washington, will enter into her
first presidential campaign in '92. We
are proud to state that her banner ID un-
furled and the inscription thereon is
liberty or death. We are we'll equipped
for the conflict except money. We have
true men, tried men, bralney men, but
alas, that one thing needful Is the proper
ty OF the enemy, although il was pro-
duced by our hard earnings. We enter
the field Of conflict with as brave q lotog
men as ever marched under the canopy
OF heaven. Our eyes are set on iustlce
and we know no surrender. Victory
alone shall crown our efforts. We who
crossed the rugged Rockies, endured the
privations OF a frontier life, stood off the
redskins and mastered the wilds Of the
west, made beautiful homes in fruitful
land, built great cities where only few
years ago stood the wigwam Of the red
man, are now confronted with protected
capital, which says to us, Surrender All
to us, and you and your posterity serve
US as bonded slaves" Alas, this Is too
much. The cry of freedom has gons up
and 10 being posted along the line. The
on the watch tower has said
10 us, "Fall In line and do as did Kansas.
Shoot ballots, which are as poison dr..
rows to the Demo-R Republican party when
handled by men with pure motives. we
have thrown down the gloves and Intend
70 handle live issues bare handed, and II
1892 Washington will for the first time
inter the presidential contest and roll 40
rousing majority for that candidate
Who is pledged to work for the enact.

ional Farmers Alliance and industrial

PETER on the back with his pen, and ga
to the world that he was q pFofane
thinker on matters Of public policy, an
one of the best writer's and most thorouR
statisticians In the west. Why, the Maio
must have been crazy when he urge
this PETER for the position of secretar
of our State Board Of Agriculture, an,
came near throwing this bowling vol
right into the midst of the innocen
lambs who now compose our state hous
ring. PETER isn't a profound student o
economic matters any more, unless h
figures in our Interest.
How good it is, my dear friend, Wood
and how thankful the nation ough
to be, that such men as you and hav,
been spared to point out this abominablC
wretch, PETER, in his true colors to hi
constituency, and heap opprobrlum OIL
his head until he will go and hide 1t foI
very shame under the shadows of ouI
magnihcence. Had he not behaved II
such an unbecoming manner and be
trsyed our confidence as neighbors, w
would think Of the interests Of our state
long enough to point out to him In {
friendly way wherein he might be OF
service to US, and offer him the encour
agement Of our good counsel, but now
no, never! The state can 60 to the dogs
and our people and all our interests tc
the demnitlOn bow vows, but this man
Petfer must be squelched in whatever
influence he might be able TO bring to
bear In our interests We must stigma
tize his every utterance as the rantlngs
Of ravlng maniac, whether he tells the
truth or not. We must meet his argu.
ments with hoots Of derision, no matter
how near he comes hitting the nail on
the head, in place of presenting our
proof to refute them. We know we have
to stand him for six years, unless an all
wise providence intervenes, but we must
clip his wings, so that his every effort, no
matter how good, will be futile. We are
bound that PETER shall get no glory from
his tenure Of office and efforts to help us.
The people Of Kansas are so incensed
against him, In fact, that they wouldn't
even permit any bill of Peffer's that
would directly benefit every man in the
state to go into effect.
A few words more, my good friend,
and am done You speak of the "Mil-
lionaire's Grand March, to be written by
Eugene Ware. l know that several
poets, as we'll as prose writer's, within the
borders of our fair state aspire to fame,
and they think that through the satire Of
heir iron qullls (no pun lntended) they
will attain the sentiment OF their desires.
A few days ago saw little couplet
IN the Kansas City Star from one of the
poets Of Kansas, who is reputed to be of
considerable ability; in fact It was no
'ther than the Hon. Eugene Ware, who,
IS one Of the managers of the machine"
has been permitted to achieve some
prominence as politician, and who is
regarded as a man of high and
lonest purposes and noble sentiment.
The lines were as follows:
When was young we called IL "hell, and men,
toned 1t with fears;
hen changed the name to "hades," then
'SheOl;" now In tears,

of US will cit back and clap our hands
and yell "bully boy" He represents
nothing, anyhow; he is merely at Wash
ington foot-loose and alone, never having
received the fairest election of any Sena-
tor from Kansas; the ticket being the
principles on which he was elected re.
ceived much larger vote than the pro-
hibitlOn amendment In Kansas, but then
that's different; prohibition represents
something, but PETER doesn't, and we
must down him at all hazards. We can't
have man in our national legislature who
will dare to say to the common people,
II am with YOU" His influence, if he has
any at all, must be spat upon and so
shattered that it will prove Of no effect;
now that he has got into a public posi-
ton where, he, might be of service to US,
we other Kansas men might help him to
accomplish much good for our state, and
encourage him to renowned efforts In be-
half Of the people, but no, sir; we don't
propose to do IT. PETER let the wind get
under his hat, and it blew some ideas
into his head that are distasteful to us
who run the machine" We don't care
so much for ourselves, but the "dear
peop'e" must not be deluded into doing
but what we tel! them.
Pardon the depression, my dear friend
Wood, but let's see what sort of a
character this man PETER Is, anyway.
Up to q couple of years ago the men who
run the "machine" were always glad to
have PETER go out on the stump during
the campaigns, and tell the people how
glorious 1t was to hang on to the tail end
Of the procession while the machine"
was headed by the few, who always car
rled the banners. That was bad: we fel-
lows ought to have known better than to
send such man as PETER out to talk to
The faithful, and try to make converts,
but then he was sort Of smooth talker,
and we used to gather in crowds at his
meetings and sit around and clap our
hands and yell whenever he said any
hing that would clinch the argument
against the other fellows. We could
wen tolerate him at times long enough to
et him at times go into the eastern states
md speak In the interests Of our grand |
I'D party. But now he must be muzzled. |
Why, some of our boys even permitted |
themselves to associate with this swan
lering vagabond," as the Republican |
tate League, which promulgates our
ointment, designates him, during the
var of the rebellion, and allowed him to
% what he could In the ranks to save our
Inion; bnt then that couldn't be helped
nd we had to pick up most anybody who
7as willing to be shot at for $1,000 a
lonth, paid In currency which the gold
ugs had deprecated until the boys got
bout $3.50, and which deficiency our
machine" has steadfastly refused to
lake up to them, while they have paid
he bODdholders dollar for dollar. Why,
lst think of it, my dear friend, Wood!
ven that majestic individual, that man
grand impulse and noble principles,
no was kicking over the traces along in
le 7Os while PETER was being permit
