WILL IT?-WIIL IT NO1P
From the Ell Dorado Republican.

From the Ell Dorado Republican,
Will the voting of the Peoples party
ticket and the putting of that party IN
control help the credit of this state?
Will it increase the value or the price
of your farm?
Will il not increase your taxes by
driving money out of the state?
Will it not add further doubt and dis
trust and thus increase rates of interest
on money?
Will it not continue to turn the tide of
immigration in other directions and thus
work great injury to everybody?
Will il cause men to come here and
build mills, elevators and factories.
Will it add one dollar to the taxable
valuation of the state?
Will it bring one new settler into the
state of Kansas?
VIII it cause another mile of railway
to be built?
Will it wipe out single mortgage or
paw a single debt?
Will it increase the price of any pro-
duct of the farm?
VIII it secure the passage of any law
that will benefit Kansas, or any man
in it?
Will it not injure the state and the
property interests of every man in it;
will il not cause great distress by drlv-
ing every dollar Of loose money out of
the state?
Not that we think, for momeut, that
the great body of voters In this party
contemplate these disasters, but VIII not
these and other calamitIes be brought
about, in the very nature of things,
should the men who are leading this
movement get in control:
This party declares that this country
sis on the verge OF moral, political and
financial ruin"
If this is true it is in desperate con-
dition: and the men who declare this
and who claim TO believe it must neces-
sarily, if placed in power, resort to des-
perate measures to cure these evils.
Are we ready for political, social
and financial revolution?
Are we ready to have values destroyed
by the putting in power of political
party which claims that the way to beat
a mortgages is to pass law against II:
Are we ready to put party IN con-
troll which says the user OF property Is
more entitled to it than the owner:
Are we ready to support an or-aniza-
/ ton which seeks to add billions 70 our
/ debt and a million ofice-holders to the
public service by the purchase and own
ership of the railway.
