That he Is qualified for the position and
fully deserves the support of his party no

for their friend. II rotation in Office be a
principle OF Old Hickory Democracy, with
all other things equal between the oppos-

nominee for Register of Wills Nothing
has tended to make the present. republican
ticket so weak aud distasteful to many of
their best men as the lack OF new wood in
their ticket Honors and places haze gone

There is serious discomfort and ill-feeling
over the ticket. Not even the republican

national convention assembled, renew their
allegiance to the principles upon which
they have triumphed in SIX successive presi-
Dental elections.
And one of those principles was
the Raster resolution of 1872. Never,
during all the years since the mar
risge of brewers and distillers to the
Republican party, have they asked
for Legislation that they have not re-
ceived. The special privileges and
favors enjoyed by them exceed any
thing ever granted to any other class
of American citizens if we except
only the clippers Of government cou-
pOns, aud the narration forms one Of
the most disgraceful chapters in the
history of any nation upon the globe.
AS an evidence of the continuance OF
the marriage relation down to the
present time we need only to cite the
continuance of these privileges,
and the disgrsceful employment OF
the machinery of the department of
state and the United States con-
sular service for the extension of the
American beer trade in foreign coun-
tries.
Yet this is the party of boasted
purity and the self righteous embodi-
ment of all American excellence.
There is much more of this history if
our Republican friends would like to
see It.

THE KANSAS REFORM PRESS.

In the estimation of impartial
judges its comparison with the press
of the old parties must be immensely
to it's credit. Standing as the expo
nent of great principles, conscious of
its strength, it deals with facts and
arguments, and leaves to it's oppo-
nents monopoly of the business of
forgery, perjury, falsehood and mis-
representation. In it's dealings with
these subjects it is content with the
successful exposure of its enemies
It is united and harmonious, devoid
of jealousy or envy, and determined
in it's efforts for the success of the
cause in which all are enlisted. To
its united and harmonious efforts
Kansas is indebted for the successes
already realized more than to any
other cause; and to a continuance of
this same united effort the people
must look for such successes as are
yet to be achieved. 1t is of the ut
most Importance, therefore, that this
press be properly sustained. The
constant visitations of our papers to
the homes and firesldes of the people,
although less productive of the tenn
porsry enthusiasm resulting from the
stump speech, produces far deeper
and more lasting effects. The hope
of our cause is in our reform press.
We are proud of its high character
and commend it to the thoughtful
consideration of the people. Let it
be well sustained.

%, 1880. Bus by withdrawing for export, spirits
thar have remained In warehouse during the full
bonded period, and then holding them In for
elgn warehouses until such time as demand
may bring them home, the pretended exporter
or subsequent purchaser Of the spirits secures
thereby, not merely an Indefinite period within
which to pay the duty imposed by section 2.6OO
revised statutes, but escapes payment OF any
duty or tax on leakages occurring during that
period, however great.
If the facts herein set forth should
be successful in penetrating the be-
nighted understanding Of the Jour
nal paragrspher, whose knowledge
OF this subject appears to be just
about equal TO that which "a hog has
of the atonement," it may furnish
him a subject for another five line ef-
fort at witicism. As this constitutes
the limit Of this editorial capacity it
would be unreasonable to expect
more.
This system Of paternal care and
regard for the liquor interests Of this
country is but one of the results Of
the marriage relation Of the Republi-
can party and the brewers and dis
tillers, which is treated Of in another

The advocate., 1891-08-05

We take pleasure in calling the at
tention of enthusiastic Republicans
who think the success of that party
the only hope of prohibition, to a lit
tie history given in another column
under the title of "The Marriage of
the Brewers and Distillers and the
Republican Party" We have the
records and correspondence of the
whisky ring over the signatures of
the highest government officials to
sustain these charges. There is no
escape for the party.

Is J. II. WILLIS OPPOSED TO THE NEW
PARTY?

PAhff
The Capital quotes the paragraph
from The ADVOCATE in reference to
it's claim of Willis treachery to the
new party and asks:
How many Of your readers will swallow that
kind Of a denlal2
In reply we will say that our readers
do not need any kind Of a denial to
anything they see in the Capital.
They are acquainted with it and fully
understand it's character.
We are asked if we deny that the
quotations from the South Carolina
World Of July IL, 1891, are taken
bodily from that paper We have
not seen that issue of the paper and
are therefore unable to say whether
it is the World or the Capital that
has lied. It would not be foreign to
the character of either Of them. The
South Carolina World is one Of the
bitterest enemies Of the Alliance in
the south, and is pursuing it with the
same unscrupulous methods that the
Capital has employed ever since the
organization assumed prominence in
thus state.
The South Carolina World in
South Carolina enjoys che same repu-
tation among Alliance people as the
Capital does among the Alliance peo-
pie of Kansas, and has earned il in
the same manner.
But to settle this matter we quote
from a private letter from Err Willis
written from Jackson, Mississippi.
The letter was not written for publica-
tiOn but we take the liberty to make
the following extract from it.
1 want 70 tell you that the old bosses can no
more hold the Alliance men in the south in the
Democratic party In 1892 than they held them
In Kansas last fall They are kicking over the
traces and giving them world Of trouble every
where go In the south. have been having big
crowds and they have voted me thanks every
where, and I have given them straight goods.
have also talked privately with them and know
where they will stand In 1892.
We should have given this matter
more attention before, but we knew
il was unnecessary 30 far as the peo-
pie are concerned. They believe
nothing the Capital Gays anyway.

Commodore Gerry's Partially for Caps.

NSAA o u SaESs
On the warmest day Of last week, when
the atmosphere was oppressively laden with
humidity and New Workers put on their
most summary clothes and a few daring
ones donned straw hats, a small sensation
was made by a tall, dignitied man, who ap-
pearea on the streets wearing a sealslyin
cap. He also wore gray hair and side whis-
kers, and was very active in his movements.
appearing not the least bit warm in his
wintry headgesr. Sweltering pedestrians
stopped in surprise to look after him as he
strobe rapidly by, and small boys in shrill
voices urged him to ''call in de ~catskln."
The wearer OF the cap Wns Commodore Ell
bridge L. Gerry. His fancy for caps il
we'll known. He never wears any other
sort of headgear when he can possibly help
it, and only yields to fashions demands for
derbies and beavers on Sundays and for
NAL occasions. He says that anything but
n cap gives him n cold in the head, and he
shows a special fondness for fur oaps.-Ex-
