TYPOGRAPHICAL ERRORS.

In the report Of the board oftman-
ayers in the impeachment, trial Of
Judge BOtkin, as published in THE
ADVOCATE, three typographical errors
occur which somewhat distort, the
meaning Of the board.
In the fifth paragraph, "This pro-
Ceeding and the agreements thereon"
the word arguments should be sub
stituted for agreements"
A little below the middle Of the
sixth paragraph, in the clause 'rnany
matters Of a truly political CharaC-
ter" the word purely should be sub
stituted for truly"
About the middle Of the paragraph
following the extract from Mr.. Pit

$3.50 out Of the city money for assist
ing the county attorney in preventing
the two suits" ETC., the word prose

cepted banquet from the Cincinnati brewers

And what q howl, my countrymeD,
would there be by the Republican
press if the press of the Peoples
party should lie about Republican
convention as the Republican press
persists in doing about every public
gathering of the peoples party. The
Cincinnati convention accepted no
invitation to a brewers banquet, and
the Cincinnati papers, irrespective of
party, so stated at the time. 1t re-
mains for the great moral reformers
of Kansas Republican journalism to
persistently misrepresent the party
in this, as in every other respect.
Misrepresentation and classification
are the only arguments they are able
to bring against the Peoples party.
OF all the conventions and public
gatherings of the party thus far held,
they have yet failed to give one
truthful report. How would it do to
correctly report us once and then
meet us on the principles laid down
in our platforms?

THE TRUE SITUATION.

lat the Shawnee County Alliance, on the 5th
inst, Hon. J. G. Otis read paper on the above
subject, from which we make few extracts.
We should be glad to publish the paper entire,
but as 1t was received SO late few extracts win
have to suffice. -EDITOR.l
We are now approaching the third
great epoch in American history. Our
revolutionary sires fought for political
freedom; in 1861 the contest was for per-
sonal freedom. Today we are battling
for financial freedom. Our fore
fathers denied the divine right
Of kings to rule, and decreed that
governments are Instituted among
men to secure certain inallenable
rights, and must derive their authority
from the consent Of the governed. In
1861 the great American conscience be-
came fully convinced that 1t was not
right TO permit one human being TO own
q chattel interest in another human be-
ing; and the great common people Of
this country declared that there should
be no more slave territory within the
limits Of the United States Of America;
and on the first day Of January, 1853, the
emancipation proclamation was Issued.

HIGHLY GRATIFYING.

We are highly gratified with the
position of the National Economist
respecting the Cincinnati conference
and its work. The Economist wss
opposed to the calling Of the confer
ence, because it appeared premature
in view Of the great convention that
had previously been called for Feb
ruary 22, 1892. The action of the
Cincinnati conference was 80 con-
servstive, however, as to place it in
harmony with that of February %,
and it is therefore endorsed by all
conservative leaders of the great re-
form movement.
Southern Alliance papers also
speak with approval Of the work done.

size Farmer, has cartoon In which
the new party is represented by q

just think of what a straight be-
twixt two this poor fellow was in on
the morning of January 13, 1891,
whether he should make the great
closing speech of his political life IN
the interest of the monopolistic oil
garchs, or whether he should turn
tail and be a calamity howlerP But
perhaps the following from Chicago
dispatch Of June 2, 1891, may be
true:
Mr.. Ingalls, is to write from 1900 to 1900 words
OF editorial for Truth every week on political
subjects Of national Importance, and In addition
to this his name is to appear on the editorial
page In consideration of these trifieS, the story
goes, the ex-senator is to be paid $4,000.
Possibly, by this, the Topeka Cap
itaI may become reconciled to him.

GRAND MASS MEETINGS.

In accordance with the suggestion
of President Polk, mass meetings will
be held in each Of the Congressional
districts in this state in the early part
of September at points to be named
hereafter. Secretary French is about
to issue a circular designating the
places of these meetings and suggest
ing necessary details for their sue
cess. It is also suggested that these
great meetings be followed by county
mass meetings in every county in the
state We shall speak more at length
upon this subject hereafter. We hope
to see the people unite and make
each and every one Of these meetings
a grand success.

THEY FEAR THE RESULT.

If our Republican friends are so
confident that the strength of the Al
lance is waning and the people re-
turning to their first love, why the
great effort to have the appointment
of Justice Horton postponed until too
late for an election of his successor
this fall? The Peoples party would
be glad to undertake the contest at
the coming election, and, to man up
a tree, the extreme anxiety of the
managers Of the Republican ring to
avoid it looks q little bit as though
they are in fear Of the regult. Don't
be afraid, gentlemen; the Alliance is
losing ground, you know.

CINCINNATI AS A CONVENTION CITY.
In the selection Of place for the
holding of a great convention, such
as that which assembled at Cincin-
natl on the 10Th Of May, there are
two essentials not to be overlooked.
These are suitable hall and suitable
hotel accommodations. Cincinnati
has both of these. The attendance
at the first great national convention
of the Peoples party was SO large
that it would have taxed the resources
of less fortunate city. Music hall
accommodated the great assembly
and still had room to spare; and the
hotels were amply sufficient to meet
all demands upon them. The Emery
was selected as headquarters of the
Farmers and Citizens Alliances, and
the Palace as headquarters Of the
National Reform Press Association !;
while the Gibson and others received
respectable delegations from the vast
assembly. The proprletors of the
hotels merit especial credit for the
uniform courtesy and favor extended
to delegates and visitors in atten-
dance. The proprietors of the Palace,
which had been designated as the
headquarters Of the Press kssocia-
tiOn, were especially ready to provide
every possible accommodation for
their guests. Room w was seated
and set apart for meetings of the as
socistion, and in looking over the re-
port Of the bills paid by the local
committee, we observe no charge
made for this room. True the Knights
of Labor very generously rendered
the use Of their hall for these meet
ings, and it was occupied portion
of the time; but room w at the Palace
was always at the disposal of the
association and it's committees, and
was used on many occasions. The
members of the association will take
pleasure in commencing the Palace
to the favorable consideration of the
travelling public.
The press and the citizens were
uniformly courteous in the treatment
of the convention and it's members
There was none of the ridicule and
abuse 80 common to the partisan
press elsewhere, and altogether those
who attended the convention had
every reason to be grstifed that it
had been called at Cincinnati.

'"Where are you going, my pretty maidP"
"I'm going voting, slrS," she said.
The Capital and other papers Of
it's lk are full of quotations from the
old bourbon Democratic sheets of the
south, in which il is held that the Al
lance will never desert the old party.
The southern Democratic papers
quote with equal reliability the Cops
tal and other Republican papers TO
show how the Alliance is going to
pieces in Kansas, and the people are
going back to their old party. In
the meantime the strength Of the
Peoples party, both north and south
continues to increase, regardless Of
the many deaths it is made to die.

We wish TO again call attention TO the
very liberal offer made by Mr.. Geo. G.
Steketee, Of Grand Rapids, Mich, as pub
llshsd In The ADVOCATE Of May 9th,

testants have until September LIST TO

bondage. The Peoples party platform,
as put forth at Cincinnati, May 20, is q
most emphatic protest against high inter
est, high taxes, high rents, and high per
cent. profits in traffic and transportation.
The Peoples party recognizes labor as
the prime factor In production the very
corner stone In the structure Of human
society. In his work on political econ
omy, Horace Greeley has truthfully said:
First Of all mans natural blessings, most
essential, most pervading, is labor, or the
exercise of human faculties or sinews to
create, eduCe and fashion those things re-
quired TO supply our minds and tastes.
Abraham Lincoln, In his first address
TO Congress, In 1861, said:
Labor is prior to and independent of cap
ital. Labor is the parent of capital. Capt.
TAI could not have existed If labor had not
first existed. Labor is superior to capital
and entitled to much the higher consideEa-
tion.
This may very properly be called the
great labor nsOVemIent Of the nineteenth
century. Our entire object, platform
and purpose, can be expressed in just
seven words-emGncipGtiOn of AmerI-
can labor from financial bondage. How
is this to be accomplished?
First BY the establishment Of new
American monetary system in the inter
est of the industrial classes.
Secondly governmental control Of
transportation and communication, and
such other industries as may become
monopOlies.
Thirdly just and equitable system
of taxation, and by securing "equal rights
to all and special privileges to nome"
In late communication ex-senator
John J. Ingalls, states the situation well
in the following language:
The American people are more concerned
now about the present and future than the
past They are considering the finances,
commerce, wages, prices, immigration, suf-
frage, universal distribution Of wealth, che
unequal distribution of burdens and bene-
fits, and are indifferent to dogmRs and dis
cipline. If we are TO succeed we must deal
with the issues of to-day, as we dealt with
slavery, secession and state sovereignty
thirty years ago.
This ls fresh from the pen Of u Repub.
lican whom the Peoples party of Kansas
helped to educate during the last cam
palgn. 1t Is good advice and sound doc
trine, and coming as 1t does from one
who Is supposed TO speak from expert
ence, we feel like urging it upon the
candid consideration of all Peoples
party men In the great northwest. Ma
tionS or states are not great only as men
and women make them. Men and women
are not great only as they do and dare.
The industrial classes of this great ma
tion have dared to come out boldly at
Cincinnati on May Goth and declare for
independent action. Shall we now stand
boldly by our declaration and win the
victOryH
Mr.. Otis here quotes the platform and

tory Of the nation and Of the political
parties that have figured In It's politics

pendence. Though Of interest and prac-
tical bearing the lateness Of its receipt

HOUSE VERSUS RAILROAD,

Both the opposing forces are resting on their
arms in the contest between the Pennsylvania
railroad and Contractor Redding at Elizabeth,
n. j. The latter wants to move house belong
ing to Henry H. Isham of Brooklyn across the
railroad track at Bsyway, and the railroad au-
thorities have blocked its progress with a
train. Mr.. Isham, the owner of the house, has
the foundation ready for it, and he went to
Elizabeth yesterday when he learned of the
trouble. He had a consultation with Con-
tracter Redding and a plan of action was de-
cided upon. The city authorities will be
applied to for a permit which will be
granted. and then, it is said, the con-
tractor will be ready to tackle the railroad
company.
Mr.. Isham, who is president Of the State
Agricultural Society. said he hoped the diff
Guilty might be adjusted in a few days, but if it
was not his man would be ready to go ahead
anyhow. He had no desire to incommode the
railroad or telegraph companies, ami was will
ing to fix a time that would suit their con-
venience. but the house would have to go
where the site wes in readiness for il, peace
ably il possible, forcibly if necessary. The
railroad had no claim to the street crossing
along which the house was being moved.
Mr.. Isham was in hopes that the railroad
company would recede from its position SO
that the work could be done next Sunday, when
travel is light over the road. There are seventy
five Western Union wires that must be cut and
twenty-five railroad telegraph wires. Con-
tractor Redding did not get the city permit
yesterday, but he expects to have by today.
He says he will then take the house, which is a
big French roof structure, over the crossing,
wires no wires.

How the Jolly Pour Enjoyed Themseivss

The Jolly Four" a club composed Of some
Of Cincinnati's colored people. held picnic at
Hunts Grove, a summer resort ten miles from
Cincinnati yesterday. During the afternoon.
between 1 and 2 O'Clock, a number Of bloody
fights occurred. Razors revolvers and pocket
knives were very plentiful. Jim Chapman. the
city dog catcher and very tough man, got
into a quarrel with Hiram Hendricks. another
very tough man, and who boasts of having killed
two men. Chapman was struck in the head
with brick thrown by Hendricks. but not
seriously injured. The brick, however, was
broken into dozen pieces by coming in con-
tact with Chapman head Friends then
came between the two men and no further in
jury was inflicted. Roe Thomas and John Fox
were the principals in another stabbing and
shooting ARRAY, Fox being shot in the leg.
Twenty minutes afterward the females took
part in a fight among themselves. Miss Ids
Giffin and Beatrice Graham, both colored and
well-known women of the town, got into q
quarrel in which Miss Gifiin used knife and
Miss Graham a razor. Miss Graham, however,
had the best of this encounter and slashed
Miss Giffin's face in a terrible manner. They
were separated before doing further injury 20
themselves. The only arrest made was that Of
Miss Graham, who was locked up in Cincinnati,
the others that were concerned in the fighting
leaving the train before it arrived in the city.
