THE greenbsOk party elected fourteen
representatives to the forty-sixth congress,
aud then went TO pieces. The Peoples party
elected seven representatives, Ave from Kan
sas, to the hfty-second congress, just half az
many az the greenbaCkerS, and it will 90 TO
pieces just twice as quick. The cOnsiderA-
tiOn Of these historical facts viii not tend to
inspire POpuliSts in any large degree with
hopeful enthusiasm.-TOpeks Capital. (
The Peoples party has gone to
pieces about once in twenty-four
hours for the last two years, and still
it continues to grow and prosper. The
republican party has run the govern
ment for the last thirty years until
such statesmen and philosophers as
the editor of the Capital came to re-
gard the party as the government.
The people took exception to this
view of the case, and now that party
is shattered into smithereens, and the
scattered fragments have not been
able to find q nucleus SINCE election

scheme contemplstes the issue Of new
interest bearing government bonds
which would at once be purchased by
the same sharks, both in England
and America, who have controlled the
financial policy Of this government
through the treason of our national
legislators for more than a quarter Of
q century. The following from the st.
Joseph Herald upon the subject Of the
bonds is sufficiently explicit TO be
understood:
II issued continuously, and to che extent
they probably would be. they should at
once settle the question Of the life Of the
national banking system, supposed to de-
pend upon the life of the present govern
ment bonds, as they would be equally as
valuable and acceptable az security for the
notes Of national banks as the government
bonds now are, which is most important

only TO that Of the improvement of the
roads.
Here, then, is the real meat in the
cocosnut. The ISSUE of new govern
ment bonds, the continual interest
drain upon the industries of the coun-
try that would go to further enrich
the favored few, the perpetuation of
the national banking system, and the
increase of the public patronage, are
the real motives behind all this agi-
tation, and not the improvement of
the public highways for the general
good. Let the people understand it
and be governed accordingly. The
reform press should proceed at once
to turn the lights upon the scheme.

and its syCOphantic spologists.
The World thinks the time for mild
measures in dealing with such things
is passed. It is apparent that this
opinion was shared by the republican
csnvassing board that has SO recently
attempted to steal the legislature
and right here we wish to remark
that whenever any of this outfit is
ready to try other than mild means
in the settlement of the issues now
before the people they can undoubt-
edly find accommodation; but would
it not be as we'll to discard q little OF
the blind partisan prejudice that pre-
vents fair investigation of economic
conditions and, looking facts squsrely
in the face, try to discover a remedy
for the evils that beset us all?
This would seem to be the proper
course for rational patriotic men and
women to pursue. He who can see
nothing wrong in this country is
more to be pitied than blamed. The
disability is defect of the intellect
and il can never be remedled.
If there is something wrong, what is

much vehemence against the vision

the difficulty and indicate the remedy
for it. When they make an attempt
in this direction their ideas will be
treated with all the respect to which
their merit entities them, but 1t will
not do to denounce the best citizens
of the state as revolutlonists simply
because they revolt against oppres-

THE Wall OF A LUNATIo,

Four years ago to have spoken Of organ
izing secret oath bound military political
organization would have been madness.
Now the thing is being done. This shows
how nightly we have fallen and empha-
sizes the necessity of redeeming Kansas.
The Populists Of Kansas are following in
footprints Of the French revolutions. Self
government will not have vindicated itself
until this new political disease has been
stamped out. The time for mild measures
Is passed. The very foundations of the
government are being undermined. Law
renee World.
It may be true that the Populists
Of Kansas are following In the foot
prints of the French revolutionists.
If it is, 1T is because they are being
subjected to precisely the same con-
ditions to which the French revolu-
tionists were subject, and it will be
found that the consequences of
tyranny and oppression are about the
same in all ages of the world. Peace
able citizens never revolt against
equitable conditions, and when their
rights are ruthlessly trsmpled under
foot as they have been in this coun-
try they would disgrace their man
hood by tame submission. The
World, like many of ITS compatrlots,
mistakes the republican party for the
government, and hence the present
uprising of the people against that
party is looked upon as treason
against the government. 1t is a plain
case of mistaken identity.
The organization spoken of by the
World is simply political organiza-
ton patterned partially after the
military order like the Grand Army
of the Republic.
Its sole purpose is to accomplish a
more systematic organization of the
Snti-plutocrstic forces of the nation
than has formerly existed. 1t is not
surprising, therefore, that it should

IMPROVEMENT OF THF PUBLIC
HIGHWAYS.

HoCelVlng numerous ClrCul6kSS hn'
marked copies Of newspapers from al
parts Of the United States in which
the improvement Of the public high.
ways was very enthusiastically edvo-
Gated. To all outward appearance
this widespread agitation was the
spontaneous outgrowth Of a great
public necessity, and yet the very fact
that the subject was taken up at about
the same time IN all parts Of the coun-
try, and was favorably treated in the
papers irrespective OF party, tended
to excite curiosity, If nothing more,
in the mind of the reader as to the
character of the prime motive behind
it all.
We have not thus far participated
IN this discussion, and, for some rea-
son, we have failed to lmbibe any Of
the prevailing enthusiasm. WEI have
been watching for developments and
fully expecting that time would re.
veal the motive power behind this
movement, and at last the light be-
gins to dawn.
A few days ago petition to con-
gress was presented to us for sigma
tion, asking for the creation Of the
Office Of national road commissioner,
and the establishment of a bureau Of
public roads with a retinue Of ma
tionsl officials, to whose tender care
these great public improvements
should be committed. We noticed on
that petition the names Of some per-
sons who have heretofore manifested
considerable dread Of paternalism-
men who believe the government
ownership and operation Of the rail-
roads would be dangerous to the pub
lie interests, and who, under no cir
cumstances, would consent to such a
thing. There is no doubt that the
country has been flooded with these
petitions. There is no doubt that
they will be signed by great many
people, and that q great pressure will
be brought to bear upon congress to
establish this bureau and create the
offices required to carry out the pur-
poses Of the promoters Of this move
ment It is important, therefore, that
the people shall understand just what
Is believed the scheme.
OF course it will not be difficult to
discover the incentive for the creation
of the new offices demanded. The
increase Of the public patronage, and
the additional sinecures to be pro-
vided are a sufficient object to secure
a large support to this part Of the
program. But what are these officers
to do, and how are they to do iti The
revenues Of the government are in
sufficient to undertake the vast system
Of improvements contemplated with
out special provision for the expense.
