Harris, J. @. Lowe, c. F. Spence, ].
8. Emery, T. p. Fulton and Ed. 8.
Fulton, for q conference at Topeka,
to consider the advisability Of NOM
mating q state ticket. The call re-
cites:
There il widespread dissatisfaction
throughout the state at the action of
the Democratic state convention Of
July 8. By the action Of the con-
vention you are not only deprived OF
the opportunity of directly express
ing your appreciation Of the wisdom,
distinguished services aud exalted
patriotism OF the worthy successor of
Jefferson and Tilden, Grover Cleve-
land, but an attempt WAS also made
to deliver you to q hostile political
organization which, il successful.
would destroy our party in the state
and bring disaster aud ruin TO the
material interests OF our people.
While we acquiesce in the action OF
the convention with reference To the
electoral ticket, we protest against
lite action as to the state ticket rs un-
pieced ented and revolutionary. No
Democrat is bound thereby. To the
end that the credit and good name
of our state and people may be pre-
served and the principles OF our
party upheld, and At the request Of
many Democrats We hereby call this
conference.

PREVIOUS ~ 1860 ordinary wages
were from IS cents to 81 day. We
had no protective tariff then, no
trusts" or combines" no re-
ciprocity, no "manufactories," no
gold standard" or not much of any
thing else. We did have q few things,
however, and among them were free
trade and state bank money, which
was sometimes worth Is cents on the
dollar, but generally was worth
nothing. England furnished the
plates, knives and forks one used in
eating his meals, and all other man
ufactures as we'll. England and the

ONE sin that cannot be laid at the
doors Of Salina people is the lack Of
local patriotism. III any institution
or q man Is Of Salina, the whole
population "stick up" for Kim. We
all stand up for Sslina. We love to
do 1t. 1t is second nature for us to
do so. Within year many things
have transpired which give US just
cause for pride In standing up for
our city. For two years our fair has
been q success in every way and it
should inspire our people to further
and greater effort. First, the scope
OF the fair should be enlarged. With
the opening Of competition to the
world and the enlargement of speed
ring purses our fair would at once
take rank with the best in the west.
III Abilene, Holton and other places
In Kansas can afford large purses for
racing Salina certainly can. We
must grow or we must perish. This
years exhibition amply justifies all
that has been said In regard to
greater effort hereafter. The officials
have been faithful and painstaking,
but il is q sorrowful truth that the
people st large have not backed them
up to the full extent Of their ability.
We have arrived at that age and stage
Of growth when all things we desire
may be had by laying hold upon
them, and let us have q good fair.

poses TO carry the coming election:
Ne believe In the American doctrine of

We believe that articles, except iuxuries
which cannot he produced In the United
States should be admitted fr. e of duty.
We demand that on all imports competing
with the products of American lsbor duties
should be levied equal to the difference be-
tween wages at home and abroad,
We belle In reciprocity, which has OPEN
ed new markets for the products of the
workshop and the farm.
We believe In the use of both gold and sill
yer money
We demand that every dollar whether Of
gold, silver or paper, shall be equal TO every
other dollPr.
We believe in an International conference

APHANroM CAMPAIGN.

That is about all that can be said
of the present political campaign In
this state. On the part Of The Re-
publicans It is aggressive, but its OPP
ponents are not even defensive. At
every point they are attacked they
retreat before the shot strikes home
aud with the general accusation of
corruption. insincerity and fraud.
our enemies take their flight Once
more, psusing anon to tell us what
they are going to do In the i'm
mediate soon, but they never do it.
Among the dead and ruined guns
and battered aud broken defenses
there are many to be enumerated
The payment of private debts by
legislative enactment, the subtreas-
ury scheme, fiat money, free trade.
government ownership Of every
thing, government care Of every
body, and q hundred others Of like
portent. All these have been
abandoned by some OF the faithful,
some have abandoned all, aad yet
many retain their membership in
the "party."
AS Republican newspaper the
JOURNAL would like to see fair
and honest campaign conducted on
the lines of truth and liberation
When our peoples party friends
make 3 stand on any grounds let us
discuss 1t thoroughly and let us beg
Of them not to sneak out in the dark
aud steal away In the night. The
truth can hurt nobody. No man
can say we have treated him unfair
ly and we purpose always to deal
that way with enemies as well as
friends. Our states good demands
that this campaign OF negation and
phantom chasing be abandoned
Let us fight q definite and decisive
battle. Time after time the honest
Republican press Of this state has
taken up the premises Of its enemies
only to find after they were done |
that they were being attacked in a |
new quarter, and 1t was necessary to |
repel them again. And then when |
the Republican press has charged
the opposition with medacity and
lunacy there were none even to
deny.
II the peoples party is really in
spired by pure, lofty and patriotic
let it cease this bush
and come out on the open
ground. A man who deceives him
self, and will not listen for fear the
truth will wound his feelings or dis
his ambition, he is his own
worst enemy and we pity him. Yet
this is what the peoples party press
and public speakers are guilty OF at
this time. What do you people who
compose the rank and file Of the
party think of 1t, anyway? |
