REMORSELESSLY ROBBED.

Statistics are usually dry reading,
but the following from the New York
bank commissioners report read like a
romance, so interesting are they. Only
think; the number of depositors in saw
ings banks in one state increasing over
one million in number; one million of
workingmen who have been ''remorse-
lessly robbed" according to our demo-
cratic brethren. The report shows an
increase in savings deposits Of S10,417,-
OILS in New York state, or about IL per
cent during the first half Of 1892. The
increase during President Harrison's
administration has been SS6,8S2,516,
and the number of depositors has in
creased from !, 1862, 1852, January l, 1889,
to 1856, 1873, July 1, 1892. Considering
all the Withdrawals for the purpose Of
changing residence, building houses,
going into business Independently, or
profitable investment, this increase dis
closes remarkable state Of prosperity.
But throughout the country such an in
crease has been going on, and it bears
most eloquent testimony to the benei-
cence of the republican policy. In two
years under this administration the in
crease in savings bank deposits in all
the states has been S210, 100000, or 14aa
per cent. The number of depositors in
creased from 100000 to 4,5OO,OOO in
two years, and is nearly so per cent
larger than it was ten years ago. The
deposits were then 1892. 100000 in
amount, but were s1,654, 100000 in
1891, an increase of about IS per cent.
Now how is democratic platform to be
forgotten or lodged which asserts that
the people of this country have been
continuously and remorselessly robbed,
when such official reports as these are
continually coming out?

THE report that a rival oil company

THE report that rival oil company
is being organized to compete with
the Standard will bring a smile t1
the face of the intelligent consumer.
Whatever small companies were left
out when the original trust was reor-
gained were ignored by the giant
monopoly as too insignificant for its
further consideration, and if they
are now threatening to combine
against it, it is simply the clamor of
the little wolves who have been shut
out of the shambles where the big
band has been Quitting itself so long.
Monopoly pays, at least it pays the
mOnopolist, and the monster COM
bines will be broken by the people
the consumers-and not by those who
would fain get place at the monop-
oliststs' table themselves.

THAT MORTGAGE SPECTRE.

While several Kansas City papers have
furtively sought to injure the credit of
Kansas, following in the wake of the
popuiist leaders, it remained for the st.
Louis Republic, whose editor wrote the
democratic national platform, to make a
direct attack in which there can be but
one object. II has recently taken the
pains to publish lists of the mortgage
sales found in Kansas papers, never add
ing line explaining how there came to
be so many. The Atchison Champion
makes this course of the Republic the
text for few pertinent remarks, which
it would be we'll for every voter in the
state to read and ponder over, for sure
ly he would then unhesitatingly stand
by his own state and vote the republican
ticket as soon as he has made up his
mind as to the extent both the demo-
cratic and populist parties have been
enemies of Kansas. The Champion
says:
kansas has been injured more by
the villi6cation of Missouri moss-back
newspapers that by the wailings of the
indictments within its own borders. The
motive behind these base misrepresenta-
tons is as malignant as partisan malice
can make it. The object of the Mis-
souri, Bourbon organ is to make it ap-
pear that mortgage sales in Kansas are
the result of republican policy. No
man who is not fool believes any such
thing, and none but a knave would
make such charge. Another thing to
be remembered in this connection ID
quite significant. The forced sales Of
real estate in Missouri during the past
two years aggregate mere in value than
the forced sales in Kansas.
missouri is an old state. Kansas is
a new one. There ought not to be any
great number of forced sales in Missouri,
but any observer who reads the pages
of such sales in the Kansas City, st.
Louil, st. Joseph and country papers
in that state will see at glance that
more dollars worth of property is sold
in Missouri under the hammer, by order
OF court, than in Kansas. Missouri has
been governed by democrats. Does the
st. Louis organ Of Bourbonism really

what is to be done with Peck is hang
ing over us, great. oppressive doubt,
here comes this man Preston with a re-
port showing that the workingmen's
deposits in this state during the last
year increased more than SS5, 600, 900,

THE PARTY THAT F
HOME.
PROTECTS

Here is a sentence that is going the
rounds of the peoples party press:
'"There are but TWO parties in Kansas
the home protectors and the home
| wreckers. The latter party is called re-
publican" This originally appeared in
Alliance State Printer Shows paper,
and leaves no doubt as to the positive
ness of his declaration that the republi-
can party is party of 'home wreckers,"
and insists that the party to which he
belongs is the party of home protectors.
It may be well to examine facts and
ascertain the truth regarding this re-
markable statement. The reports of the
United States Land Office show that
under the homestead and timber culture
acts-which are admitted to be purely
republican measures-farms averaging
in size 1876 acres each were given to L.
248, 749 citizens between the years 1862
and 1890, Counting FIVE to a family,
homes were provided for population of
6,243,745 souls by the party Of 'home
wreckers."
About one-haIf of the state of Kansas
was settled by home-seekers who OBJ
tanned lands under the two republican
acts mentioned. The number of entries
in Kansas have been POS, S03, and the
number of acres covered by these entries
was 80, 204, 153-good results to come
from the legislation of party that
makes business of "wrecking homes"
What party was it that opened up
Oklahoma and gave thousands of poor
people homes? Was not this same re-
publican party in full power at that
time? What party in the last congress
refused to open up the ''strip?" Was
it not Jerry Simpson who has been de-
nounced publicly by his own party for
his efforts to defeat the measure that
would have given homes to several
thousands Of people who want to open
farms in that country?
In Philadelphia, Pa, strong repub-
lican city, over 100000 homes are
owned by the working people; and in
Kansas reports from 1000 mechanics
residing in four of the largest cities
show that over 33aa per cent OF those re-
porting owned their homes in 1890
and Kansas was republican at that date
and for some years previous.
1t was the republican party in Kansas
that passed and has since maintained
this law: "a homestead to the extent
of one hundred and sixty acres of farm
ing land, or of one acre within the limits
of an incorporated town or city, occu-
pied as residence by the family of the
owner, together with all the improve
ments on the same, shall be exempted
from forced sale under any process of
law"

A STRIKING CONTRAST.

The Athens ga Banner is puzzled
about the new party, and is at a loss to
understand its guiding principles. not
being aware that it is all things to all
men. The Banner says:
"A striking contrast indeed-At Ocala
a condemnation of the tariff and the
force bill; at Omaha strange silence
on both subjects. Why the change:
Have the principles changed or the
men: Evidently the latter. In one in
stance the south dominated in favor OF
an honest government; in the other

conglomerate mess known as the Omaha

THE AWAKENING HAS COME.

Never before has there been such en-
thusiasm and unanimity among republi-
cans, as well as such determination to
much the success of the men on the
ticket, although they are all superior in
attainments and integrity, as it is the
desire that Kansas shall be redeemed
and given back its proud name, which
was temporarily shaded by populist
success. In anticipation Of the restoIa-
ton of republican rule, the country
roads once more are the highways of the
white covered wagons which convey
settlers to desirable lands. From all
parts of the state come reports of sales
of farm lands and partially restored
confidence. 1t now needs only a clearly
defined republican victory to turn to
our fertile plains and valleys the tide Of
immigrants who are anxious to make
themselves homes.
In the past we have sympathized with
Missouri for being but highway for
home-seekers, who crossed but never
stopped. We all knew that the moss Of
bouIbonism always kept the land-seeker
from casting his lot with the good peo-
pie of that etate; but it was the moss
grown out of the old-time slave culture.
No Missourian was ever guilty of re-
Wiling or defaming his own state, thus
driving away q much-desired element.

In the struggle of life the hero and
the coward, the conQuerer and con-
quered, need sympathy equally.
Often the mind which upholds others
needs itself to be upheld; the honest
heart which seems so bold and true
is fainting from secret sorrow, dying
from some little wound which
sympathy could stanch, the pain of
which it could alleviate.
