Yesterday was a gala day in Whining
tons history and probably no city in the
union outside of Chicago celebrated
Columbus Day, which only comes once
in lifetime, with more pomp and patri-
otic display. The entire city was beauti-
fully decorated with bunting, streamers
and flags and all day long martial music
from a score of bands and reports from
as many cdnnons filed the air. Every
body seemed TO contribute something to-
ward the gigantic celebration and to
freshen the memory Of the great Col
umbus.
Market street presented a gay ap-
pearance all day. All the stores with
but few exceptions were tastefully deco
rated aud both sides Of the street were
crowded with sight-seers. many of whom
were from out Of the city, long before
the time for the parade TO start
The main attraction was the monster
! parade in the afternoon. The route
covered distance of seven miles aud
the procession was fully four miles ia
length. IL was the most magnificent
spectacle ever seen here and the celebra-
tion was complete success.
The industrial feature of the parade
was grand 1t showed by successi e
stages the advancement that has beeu
made in various br, nches Of industry

many of our farmers that their corn
would average fifty bushels per acre,
but many of them are realizing their
disappointment.

PoPUL1sr BRIGHT PROSPECTS
One Hundred congressman and
Fifteen Senators-A Fair
Estimate.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 28.-Chairman Fl.
E. Taubeneck of the Peoples ma
tIonal committee predicts a surprise
for the democrats and republicans
alike at the November election as far
as the result in Missouri Is concerned.
In referring to the situation in Mis-
souri,, he said: 81 understand that
the republicans claim that if Leverett
Leonard polls $4,000 votes in this
state, Warner will be elected COVER
nor. don't care who is elected I'M
less we are able to elect Leonard, and
I consider his chances equally as
good as those of either Mr.. Stone or
Mr. Warner, but I will say that Mr.
Leonard Will poll in the neighbor-
hood of 10000 votes.
"The Peoples party has been work
ing very quietly in this state, and we
have gathered enough statistics for
me to make the prediction that Leon
ard will poll 10000 votes, and will
wager that he don't fall under this
estimate 1000 votes. If that will
elect Warner. that is not our lookout,
as we are in the race to win and do
not care whom we defeat"
Mr.. Taubeneck, the national chair
man of the Peoples party executive
committee, has received the majority
of reports from state committees, and
this morning made an estimate of the
number of the congressman that
would represent the Populists in the
next congress.
The congressman, according TO Mr.
Taubeneck, will be elected from the
following states: Alabama z, Kan
sas z, North Dakota 1, South Dakota
2, Nebraska 4. Colorado 2, Californis
3, Texas 4, Louisiana 3, North Caro-
lima 4, Virginia 4, West Virginia 1
Kentucky 3, Tennessee 5. Mississippi
g, Nevada 1, Illinois 3, Wisconsin 2
Iowa 1, Michigan 3, Ohio l, Wash
: ington 2, Idaho 1 and New York 2.
"This Is fair estimate" said Mr.
Taubeneck, "as we expect to elect 10(
congressman and fifteen United
States senators. The congressional
committees of both the republican
and democratic parties have conceded
] that the Populists will hold the bal

ton Of silvef. and the, repeal oe bhesSl
per cent tax on state bank issues.
This, however, is but the beginning
of a most disastrous end.
Let us consider the aftermath of a
lowed by an absolute surrender of
state control of our elections. Upon
one frivolous pretext or another we
shall be despolled of the last vestige
of local government and treated
to force bills more stringent than
that which Dictator Reed rushed
through a paralyzed house. Civil
rights bills will have a resurrection.
These persistent agitators Will en-
gender race conflicts to the damage
of our industrial interests and the
reigh of chaos and old night" will be
restored from the Potomac to the
Rio Grande.
It is easy enough to sniff at these
as lurid phophesies born of political
nightmare. But stranger things have
happened within the lifetime of a sin
gle generation. With the defeat and
Generalization of the democratic
party the hope of constitutional lib
erty will perish.
This it is that moves the Greshams
and McVeighs and Coxes to renOunce
their lifelong allegiance to the re-
publican party. Shall any southern
democrat falter in the face of such
examples? If tempted to do so, let
him remember that a solid south car
ries the assurance of victory, while a
divided south involves the loss of all
for which we have so earnestly con
tended since the days of '68.
Let the south do It's whole duty
this one time and the Rubicon of our
political destiny will be passed IN
glorious triumph.

taect 10 this state, said: I'VE have
got the poll of the state, and by our
own showing Lewelling has about
10000 majority It looks bad. We
have got to do something to counter
act this if we can. Our plan is to
claim everything. About two or
three weeks before election we ex-
pect to have men in various parts of
the state to declare their disgust with
some particular parts of the speeches
made by the populist fellows and de-
clare their Intention to leave the
party and go back to their old party.
Interviews have been arranged with
republican papers in various parts of
the state who will publish this list of
names who haye left the Alliance,
and in this way try and make a break
in their ranks all over the state"
When asked if they were sure they
could get their men, he replied: ''Oh,
yes; we have them already selected;
we arranged for them to go into that
party last spring, and they can now
leave it as being dissatisfied" The
expediency of this policy being ques-
toned, he replied: why, it is the
only thing we have got left. We are
beaten and have got to do something
to try and save ourselves. In the
congressional districts, Humphrey,
Long and Funston will be beaten;
Broderick will pull through, so will
Charlie Curtis in the Topeka district,
too, think, and Baker in the Sixth
district may be beaten. as the demo
Gratis do not like him." -SumneT
County Standard.
We do not know from what source
the Standard got its information on
this point, but we do know that we
dropped On to the same scheme few
days ago. It came from a reliable
SO Tree, and there is no doubt of the
intention of republican managers try
ing to cause a stampede in this way

pect to hear all sorts of ''canards'

The Southern Cry.

Up here in the north audiences are
by republican orators
with the cry, ''Fhat a vote for Weaver
is a vote for Cleveland, and if Cleve-
land is elected you old soldiers will
lose your pensions" In the south
the democratic speakers and papers
tell the people that a vote for
Weaver is a vote for Harrison, and if
Harrison is elected, the force bill will
be made law" Thus in each sec
ton all that is possible to prejudice
the voter against the Peoples party
movement is being done by both of
the old parties. The following from
the Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution gives
a good insight into the feeling IN
Georgia:
One of the strangest and saddest
features of the third party movement
is the fact that thousands of we'll
meaning farmers in Georgia and Al
ALBANIA are carried away by the infat-
uation.
With faith but little short of ia
naticism they are looking to Watson
and Kolb to land them IN some polit-
ical Canaan where money is to be had
for the asking.
The influence of these political ad-
venturers Is one of the marvels of the
century. Watson is certainly no
fool, but he is smarting under the
dread of defeat. KOId is an average
politician made furious by his failure
to secure the governorshIp In the late
Alabama contest.
They are now engaged in a stimuli
taneous effort to wreck the demo
cratic party In their respective states
IN the November elections. 1t is
never a prudent thing to despise an
enemy and 1t behooves every friend
of honest government to be on the
alert and let the battle cry Of democ-
racy be ''Once more to the breachp'
Especially at those storm center:
of the political weather may-Augus
ia, Atlanta, Savannah. Birmingham
Montgomery and Mobile, let the reg
istration of democratic voters go for
ward at double quick measure. Con
fronted as we Will doubtless be by
republican hirelings at the polls, We
must be prepared to put forth our ut
most strength. 1t is now an open Sc
cret that the whole power of the fed
eral government will be used in thu
south to assist the third party move
ment So that the fight is between 1
coalition of republicans embracing
large majority of the negroes and ;

There Is n certain family, composed oi
two daughters. and these two are of total
ly dissimiar temperaments. One is an
active child with large head and gift
of asking questions, many of which are
posers.
Did you ever notice what diversity Of
employments are required for n child Of
this description? A school teacher once
said that upon the introduction of a chile
with a large head into her school, she nj
ways gronned in spirit. for il meant not
unusual brilliaucy Of intellect. but that
the child must be constantly employed, for
otherwise he would employ himself and
get into mischief untold, for such n child
must always be doing something.
Well, the little maid aforesaid often finds
the world sucked orange, and repiues
bitterly thereat. If she is admon'shed or
disciplined for this she sulks, aud, as q
nurse once called il, "aCts mp" But if n
few minutes thought is given TO provid
ing something for her 10 do she is content
for while.
This child hp9 never been spoiled by
overiudu lgence. but occasionally she bursts
out into n storm of temper that wOuiu lead
any one to think SO, while her sister, two
years younger, WIS born good. always does
the right thing in the right way and rarely
has to he reproved in any wy. If tds
younger child were the oulv one, the pav
ents would have the credit of being pdmir
