The Political Outlook.
K. OF l.. Journal.

K. OF l.. Journal.
As THE returns continue to come in,
it becomes more and more evident
that the vote of the Peoples Party
has absolutely decided the issue a>
between the two old partieS-that il
has killed the Republican Party anc
made it impossible for that party t.
figure any longer as power in thC
politics of the country. The pOlitica
field now very much resembles that
of 1852, when the Wing Party met the
fate which has now Overtaken tht
Republicans, leaving the Democratic
Party large enough todivide, and from
the conditions of the political field
at that time the Republican Part,
was evolved, just as the POpulist Pa
| ty, under whatever name it may lie
known, will be evolved out Of tn,
present conditions. There is this
difference, however, in the situation
The Democratic Party is not Onll
large enough to divide, but is absO.
lutely certain to divide, as the East
ern Democrats, controlled and ma
nipulated by Wall Street. will neye
consent to the monetary reforms
which the Western and Southern
Democrats are certain to demand.
The position is just this: The Repub-
lican Party is defeated; the Demo
cratic Party cannot hold together in
the face of the divisions already ex-
isting in its ranks. The Republican
Party is dead. There is no place to
which the honest man Of that party
can 60 except into the ranks of the
Peoples Party. That he will &c
there is evident by the result of the
vote. In Colorado, and some Of the
Northwestern States, the Democratic
Party will divide into the friends ana
the opponents Of the plutocracy, and
the latter will have no place Of refuge
except that provided by the Peoples
Party. The situation is full of hope,
and it only requires that the friends
of reform should get together and
! perfect their organization of people
unSelfshly striving for the good OF
the whole country and be ready fOr
the landslide which must occur in
their favor from both the old party
camps.

The Peoples Party In the. south.

There is no part Of the recent national
Peoples party campaign in which We
take more satisfaction than the work in
the southern states. II is true indeed
that colossal frauds and brutal violence
have to q great extent prevented the
party from securing the electoral votes
and congressman which it fairly vUn.
but however regrettable that may be.
the actual results Of the campaign made
have been and will be OF a consequence
not to bs exaggerated.

They are honorable, reasonable and
liberal. There is no doubt but that
the farmers are under many Obliga-
tiOns to them. They have received
credit and favOrs when in a strait on
account of poor crops. cyclones and
adversely and no doubt fully appre-
ciate the favors. And we have no
hesitancy in saying they stand ready
to acknowledge and reciprOcate these
favOrs when it is possible to do so.
We know of instances where the farm
ers have actually made sacrifices of
their stock and crops to meet their
obligations and repay favOrs.
And while all these facts are unde-
niable there is a remedy. The PeO-
pies party platform declares and sets
forth the existing evils. 1t points
the way and suggests the remedy.
The issues have been fully discussed
and the conditions set forth. The
farming class has been the first to
recognize and grasp them. They are
certainly in advance of their city
brethren. They endorse and advocate
co-OperatiOn and reciprocity. They
were the first to see the coming crisis
and attempt to avert the danger.
Who is to blame?
1t is true that the business man
has as much right to his political
opinions as any other class. But
while this is true he should not shut
his eyes and close his ears when shown
and told of existing evils. Let him
lay aside partisan prejudices and
study the issues of the day in can.

them see if all the facts and cOndi-
tionS do not prove that the farmers
interests are the merchants and me-
chanic'S interests. Tnen they will
have a better opinion of the hay

hOwlers." They will get rid of an
idea expressed by a Wellington citi-
zen during the Jerry Simpson rally
here that 1.-THE very sight of these Old
grangerS is enough to make a Repub-
can sick"
We need more money. We need a
larger market for the farmers prod
ucts. Interest on money loans is too
high. Our taxes are too high. Rail
road rates are oppressive. The prices
of coal, cnal oil, lumber and other re
sources of this country are kept up by
mOnopOlies and combinations to the
detriment of the masses. There
should be no monopoly on the prod
vets of the earth. Our system of gov
ernment needs reforming all through
and it can only be accomplished by a
united effort of business and labOring
men. Let US all stand up for Kansas
and the welfare of the whole people.
Then there will be no complaints.

ArgOnia Clipper.
The failure of the Curtis Hardware
Co. should be warning that Others
are likely to follow. Money has been
harder to collect on subscription this
fall than at any time in the six years
we have been running the Clipper.
Failures are no surprise to us. 1t is
TO everybody'S interest to prevent
these failures. The farmers can bet
ter take fifty cents a bushel for suffi
clent wheat to pay their store ac-
counts and save the merchants from
failure than to run the risk of having
no one to carry them in the future
when they don't even have crops u
sell. The farmers cannot afford to
stand of their accounts and thereby
force our best merchants to the wall.
One of our principal merchants is ad-
Tertlslng to take in partner, and il
is hard to tell what else my have to

No electoral vote has been cast outside OF the
Democratic and Republican parties since Bell
received the votes Of Vii ynia, Kentucky and
Tennessee in 1860 The popular vote for Wes
yer will be somewhat more than loo, 900, near
! ly half of which was cast In the southern and
southwestern states. When he was the candi-
date Of the Greenback party in 1880 General
Weaver carried no states, but polled popular
vote Of 3O6.S61. Weaver's unadulterated Peo-
| pies party vote in the south was larger than
his entire vote-polled almost exclusively iI
the west-in 1880. The indications are that the
vote Of the Peoples party in the thirteen states
Of Alabama. Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Ken
| lucky, Louisiana, Missouri, Mississippi, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, Tennessee
and Virginia will aggregate nearly as much
as that Of the Republican party In those
states.
Through combinations with the Democrats
the Populists probably will have five senators
/ in the next congress-two from Kansas, one
! from Nevada, one from Nebraska and one
| from South Dakota. Two Of these-Pefer, Of
Kansas, and Kyle, of South Dakota-were In the
/ last congress. Stewart, Of Nevada, VINO was
formerly Republican, will be returned as a
POpulist, or rather as representative Of the
silver party, which indorsed the POpulists.
4 In the house there will be ten straight out
Populists and two Democratic Populists. Az
in the last congress, the largest Populist dele
cation is from what has been called the
"crank" state, Kansas, and consists Of jerry
Simpson, w. A. Harris, John Davis and VIII
liam Baker.
Thomas J. Hudson, Democrat from the
Third congress district Of Kansas, is classed
by the Populists as one Of themselves. Lafe
Pence and John c. Bell are the POpulist con-
gressmen elect from Colorado. They were for.
merly Democrats. FIG. Newlands, an ex-Rs.

in the house. Halverson Z. BOen will be the
representative from Minnesota. w. A. Nc.

chance Of breaking the solid south.

The returns, 30 far as they are obtainable up
to date, show that the Populists, assisted BY
the Democrats. carried the electoral votes Of

one of the four votes of Oregon and the three
! votes of North Dakota. The Populist electoral

cratic votes by fusion In the west. his actual
Populist vote will be about 10000.
The results Of the campaign Of tba PoDulists
may be thus summarized: They have increased
their strength In congress by three senator,
and four representatives. They have obtained
foothold in the legislatures Of nearly all the
southern and western states, and they have
gained the support In the silver producing
states Of large number Of daily and weekly
newspapers that have industriously dissent
mated their theories.
1t is probable that the official returns
will give the Peoples party more than
10000 votes in the middle states, but the
point is immaterial in the lessons which
the foregoing statement teaches.
