The African RxolnPIant,
LADY SPEAKERS.

l am receiving numerous calls for Mrs.
Lease and Mrs. DiggS. desire to say
to all persons desiring these ladies or
either of them, that they are both out of
the state, and on their return due notice
will be given through the columns of the
ADVOCATE, and all parties desiring their
services will be given an opportunity to
be heard. However, they are not likely
to return until October, hence those 10
cslities desiring q lady speaker in
the near future will make q selection
from those who are available. Mrs.
Tucker, Of Minneapolis, has spoken at q
number of meetings and Is we'll recon-
mended. Mrs. T. j. Smith, Of McPher-
son, is highly recommended by numer-
GUS persons who are acquainted with her
and will doubtless be able to give good
satisfaction to any locality that secures
her services. Through an oversight her
name has not heretofore appeared In the
list Of speakers.
Senator PETER, Congressman Otis, Hon.
s. s. King, are added to the list Of speak
ers, and are prepared to devote their en-
tire time to the campaign. Localities
desiring either Of these gentlemen will
avoid confusion and loss of time by cor
responding direct with the committee.
desire to call attention to the fact that
General Weaver will not be able to spend
more than few days in the state. And
should he be able to devote one day to
each congressional district, the campaign
committee of each district will designate
the point at which the meeting will be
held. Should he only be able to speak
three times in the state, the meetings will
be held at Topeka, Wichita and Parsons.
Onr candidate for vice president, Gen.
Field, will probably make few speeches
In the State. He will go to the district
which Gen. Weaver is unable to reach.
The attention of all local committees
Is called to the list of appointments for
Mr.. Lewelling. It will be observed that
his time Is entirely taken up to the Both
of September. From that date until the
close Of the champaign he will speak In
the Seventh congressional district. 1t is
useless for other localities to call for
him. The only change that can be made
In any Of his appointments will be- q
change of points in the county where he
is to speak. This can only be done
through the county committee. All COM
mittees will please take notice of these
appointments and make the necessary ar
rangements for these meetings. A list
Of appointments for other speakers will
appear next week. Respectfully,
JNo. w. BREIDENTHAI.

A Nut For the Protection Organs to

Crack.
The following letter from New York
Labor Commissioner Peck TO his former
partner, W. Fl. Greenhow, of the Horners-
vile Tribune, written only little more
than three months ago, will now be read
with interest;
ALBANY, May 10, 1897 was glad to
see you take up the Times assertion that
my reports proved that workingmen had
received increased wages, and reply TO it
az you did. l notice, however, that the
same paper Of yesterday again refers to
my report Of 1891. 1t claims that show
that there were 1,941 instances Of Rd-
vAnOed wages for 1891, and S,OS6 cases
In which the hours of labor were short
ened, while it records only AL cases Of
reduction. Whether the Times has pur-
posely attempted to deceive its readers I
don't pretend to say, taken from this
bureau report of 1890 and 1891, the year
before the Mckinley bill went into effect
and not the year after, as It would have
the public believe
However, It makes no special differ
enCe for the reason, as you clearly set
forth, that in every instance Of either the
increase of wages or shortening Of hours
it was the direct result of the demands
Of organized labor and for no other con-
cOlvRble cause. When my report for
1891 does come out the Times and all the
protection papers Of the whole country
will have to stand from under. / am
tabulating the data and statistics Of the
industrial census | have taken for the
year before and the year after the Nc
Kinley DILL went into effect, and enough
has been demonstrated TO warrant me in
claiming that it will furnish the most
complete refutation Of the etheorles Of the
protectionists in regard to wages that has
ever been published.
I shall also continue the results Of all
labor disturbances occurring in the state
during the last year, and show that out
OF the thousands Of successful strikes for
increase of wages not one was or is at
tributsble to profession. And / shall
show from the manufacturers themselves
that In no single instance where there
was an increase Of wages was Il volun-
tAry on their part. Except In individual
cases every increase was the result Of the
demand on the part Of employees en-
forced through their organizations"

THE news that the protected monopo-
lists are backward about coming forward
with contributions to the Republican
campaign fund this year indicates that
said protected monopolists are, in their
way, good businessmen. Having bought
the Mckinley schedule of prohibitory
tariff taxes and paid roundly for it four
years ago, the manufacturers may
naturally feel that they have a right to
demand continuance of the same
without paying any more tribute to
Republican bosses. If they were to
keep their pockets open it wouldn't be
long before they would have to pay in
blackmail to the campaign managers a
good deal more than the profit of protec-
ton would amount to. Moreover, it is
plain that the people of this country are
not going to submit to class taxation
much longer, The manufacturers pro-
badly foresee the election of a tariff
reform president and congress in Novem-
ber, and therefore beg to be excused
from pouring any more good dollars into
the Mckinley rat hole.

THE high protective tariff now in force
is the fosterer of another trust just form
ed in New York. The manufacturers of
wall paper, commodity subject to a
tariff tax Of twenty-five per cent, have
combined with the avowed purpose of
cheapening the cost of manufacture but
with the evident purpose of forcing up
the price to the consumer. 1t does not
take much thought to understand if the
product was open to foreign competition
that such combine would be useless.
AS it is the consumer is compelled to
pay the tariff tax not, because he i'm
ports the article, but in the imitation of
the price of the home product. The
house owner pays the tax when he orna-
ments his room; his poorer neighbor in
the payment of rent.

THE New York World, with the co.
operation Of other prominent Demo
cratic newspapers throughout the coun-
try, is making an energetic fight for the
capture of several Western states. Over
$4,000 have been subscribed in less
than two weeks, and this money is to be
spent for strictly legitimate campaign
purposes. 1t is not fund of fried fat
such as the other side gathers together
every four years. 1t will not be spent
IN buying votes in blocks-of- five, or in
any other corrupt or illegal manner.
Over 5000 people have contributed to the
fund, and every Democrat is asked to
send his mite, even if it be only dime,
in order that the light may be spread
amoug the people of the West Contri-
buttons may be sent either direct to the
World or through the TRIBUNE, and will
be promptly acknowledged.

IT is observed that the presidential
canvass is dull this year compared with
the activity that was usual at this period
in former campaigns. There has been
but little movement on either the Demo
cratic or the Republican side. The latter
may be retarded by the difficulty that
has been experienced in getting the
leaders to pull in the party traces, but
there is no such difficulty with the
Democrats. The inertness may be due
to the fact that the enemy they will
have to fight has not yet made an
appearance in the field. The interest
which the people have taken in the
Homestead difficulty has had, in large
measure, the effect of drawing attention
from the political field. That episode
has also demoralized the Republicans,
who at the very threshold of the cam
paign which they intend to make on the
tariff issue, find themselves confronted
by such an object lesson on the benefits
of the Mckinley system of protection.
1t isn't any wonder that they are con-
siderably ratified.

CORNER IN WHEAT.
Absolute Control Of the Market Secured
by a Combination.

CHICAGO. Feb. 1S-The Tribune says
there are strong indications that the wheat
market is being manipulated, and intimates
that j. ID. Rockefeller OF the Standard Oil
Company, James T. North, the nitrate king.
and John w. Mackay, the bonanza Million
aire, are at the back of it. The paper as
serts that the sales of wheat on the Chicago
Board of Trade alone aggregate 10000. 600 or
S0,000.0OO bushels, whereas there are less
than 100000 bushels of actual wheat in
the West leaving about 10000, 600 bushels,
which are really "wind" sales, and must
be covered OF whatever prices the
market touches. The paper says that
similar short sales have been made by the
combine in all the principal wheat-dealing
cities Of this country and at Liverpool /;
that last fail trusted agents were sent to
Europe to ascertain the actual shortage of
wheat there, and that the buying COM
neuced last December and has been carried
on ever since by dealers accustomed to
handle small lots. aud that they thus,
without attracting attention, have secured
absolute control of The market.

The union men know that large crowd
of idle men is in this city and say that the

this time to reduce the wages of those who
handle its lumber. About ten men were at

SO per month yesterday morning, and a
dozen policemen were also on hand to pre-
Vent any disturbance.
In spite Of the wet weather a crowd of
nearly 800 gathered around the wharf, but
no attempt was made to drive the nOn-union
men away from the job. although they were
