make tremendous fight for the
presidency. All this will be done
under the pretense Of reform, fol
the purpose Of dividing the people
as much as possible and defeat us.
Now brothers, in order to head
them off in that direction we must
have prohibition plank in our
platform, and give the honest voters
who belong to this movement a
chance to vote with us and save our
country from impending ruin.
Now appeal to the people. |
appeal to the brothers of all our re-
form parties. appeal to our lead
ers; our genuine, true, patriotic
heroes; come forward and see to it
that we have a platform upon which
we can all agree; platform upon
which we can all be united, and one
that all can and will support.
The plutocrats will do all that is
in their power to force us to sub
NIT to their villainous scheme, which
is to slaughter our party and defeat
us at our next presidential election.
But we must give them to under
stand that if we are not allowed to
control our own conventions, we
have resolved to do our own work,
and we have determined to have it
done right.
Brothers, north and south, from
the Atlantic to the Pacific oceans,
do you hear? do you understand?
We must declare that our platform
shall be amended; we have the
power to do it, and we must be
guided by that wisdom and knowl-
edge which is justice and humanity.
We must resolve that we will stand
firm and be true to our party, and
God will deliver us from bondage.
Yes, He will give us thousands of
Moseses who will lead us on to VIC
tory. NATHAN HIATT.

An Appeal To The People.

amendment to our platform of Feb
ruary 18th at ST. Louis, to be
amended and ratified by the people:
Be it resolved, That we, the peo-
pie of all our reform parties, do be-
lieve that we have not been honestly
and justly represented, but the plu-
tocrats have been allowed to get in
their dirty work, by influencing
some Of our representatives to give
us platform that does not meet the
present requirements and wants of
the people, because it is a platform
upon which all can be united; which
all can and will support; and unless
we can have a platform that is
sound and solid for reform, one that
all the people will support, we are
sure to be defeated at our next cleo
ton, and all our work during this
campaign will be lost, and we must
be content to live under plutocratic
and British rule four years longer.
The third plank in our platform
which reads:
We demand a national currency
safe, sound and flexible, issued by
the general government, only full
legal tender for all debts public and
private, and that without the use of
banking corporations; just and
equitable means Of circulation at
tax not to exceed . per cent, as set
forth in the sub-treasury plank of
the Farmers Alliance, or some bet
ter system.
Now my brothers, here is con-
tradicuion, because how can this
means of putting money in circula-
ton at a tax not to exceed 2 per
cent. be Just and equitable by lend
ing it to the farmers alone, while all
other parties are deprived of this
privilege?
Now my brothers, | am farmer,
and this special privilege applies to
all farmers, but to be honest we
must come to the conclusion that
this is class legislation.
Now ] wish to say right here
that this sub treasury plan is a
scheme of the plutocrats and money
power and has been placed in our
platform on purpose to divide our
party and defeat us at our next
presidential election
Resolved, That the third plank in
our platform shall be stricken out
and shall be made to read as the
third plank of the platform present
ed by the Independent Order 3S, to
the national union conference at St
Louis, which reads:
No banks Of issue, but all money
shall be issued by the government
and shall be full legal tender for all
debts, public and private; gold and
silver coinage shall be on equal foot
ing and sufficient paper to supply |
the needs of the people to do a cash
business. guarded from imitation or
contraction by the requisite amount /
per capita, and upon approved secur-
ity may be loaned in limited |
amounts direct to the people at
low rate of Interest.

contradiction and cannot be mad
to harmonic with the voice an
sentiments of the people, becaus
the plank upon which our brothe
soldiers who wore the gray and VIII
wore the blue are to be united !
lust as far from it as hell is from
heaven. Think Of it, brothers. AR
we united just because that confer
ence declared it so? No, not bi
of it. We are not united, and new
Ell can be, and never will be united
until we have a platform independ
snt, of the plutocrats; platform
that will harmonic with the wishes
of all the people.
This demand to pay the Unior
soldier the difference between the
price of the deprecated money il
which he was paid, and gold, does
not apply to the private soldier
alone, but it applies to all the off
GERS, from corporal or sergeant up tc
the greatest generals, which will
increase their pay many Of them
to thousands of dollars. Brothers,
this is not right. 1t is unjust and
will forever be a disgrace to our
party. Our cause never can, and
never will, succeed while we toler-
ate such injustice, and turn a deaf
ear to the sufferings of our people.
When we study this plank in our
platform, we must come TO the con-
clusion that it is calculated to
divide, and not to unite; it is calcu.
lated to destroy, and not to save US.
Now it is selfevident fact that
this is another scheme of the pluto.
Gratis, and has been placed in our
platform by the enemy of our cause,
which is to prevent our southern
brothers from voting with us, and
defeat us at our next presidential
election.
Be it resolved, By the united
power of all our people, that this
plank in our platform, which reads:
1--WE demand that the government
issue legal tender notes and pay the
Union soldier the difference between
the deprecated money in which he
was paid, and gold" stricken out
and shall be made to read:
We demand that the government
issue full legal tender money with
out the exception clause, subject to
tax the same as other property,
and relieve our people who are
suffering for food and clothes, and
the necessaries of life, in the great
cities and country throughout the
length and breadth of this accused
land of monopolies; those poor hu-
man beings who are a part of Gods
creation, and who are now under
the iron hand of oppression and are
struggling SO hard to live, while
many of them are actually denied
the privilege of living. We de-
mand that the strong arm Of the
government shall protect them.

Nebraska Troublesome Now.

The hitherto highly Republican
state of Nebraska is causing consid-
cradle unea siness to the Republicans
this year. 1t was such a thoroughly
Republican state that it was believed
that party success would not be i'm
periled by a little dictation from the
White House and President Harri
sons Third Assistant Secretary OF
the Treasury was nominated fol
Governor after q severe struggle in
the convention. A INTEGRITY of the
delegates did not want him, and
deadlocked the convention for days
But the candidate picked out by the
Administration finally won.
Now comes the Peoples party, and
dominates for its candidate ex- Uni
ted States Senator Van Wyck, who
is the ablest Senator the Republicans
ever sent from that State and he ae-
cepts. He will be sufficiently inter
esting to his Republican friends
without attentions which a we'll or.
ganized and aggressive Democracy
will give to the G.. o. P. in Nebraska
Not only is the Republican state
ticket thereby made doubtful of sue
cess, but the chances of securing
Nebraska's electoral vote for Harri
son arc materially reduced. These
are trenblous days for some one 4

Sixty Million Bushels of Wheat-A
Bnshel for Every Inhabitant of the
United States. The Kansas Crop Of

Never in the history of Kansas has
that state had such b0untiful crops as
this year. The farmers cannot get
enough hands to harvest the great
crop and the Santa Fe Railroad has
made special rates from Kansas City
and other Missouri River towns, to
induce harvest hands to go into the
state. The wheat crop Of the state
will be from sixty to slxty-fve million
bushels, and the quality is high.
The grass crop is made, and is a very
large one; the early potatoes, rye,
barley and oats crops are made, and
are all large. The weather has been
propitious for corn, and it is the
cleanest, best looking corn to be found
in the country today. Cheap rates
will be made from Chicago, St.
Louis and all points on the Santa Fe
east Of the Missouri River, to all Kan
sas points, on August 80 and Septem-
Der 81, and these excursions will give
chance for eastern farmers to see
what the great Sunflower State can do.

His Own Brain Weighed.

Prof. l.. Bischof, the distinguished
Psychologist of Munich, who died
not long ago made speciality OF
brain examination, and be was fond
of comparing the relative weight Of
that organ in men and women. La
borious research convinced the Pro
fessor that the average weight Of a
mans brain is 1850 grammes, while
a woman's is hut 1850 grammes,
Now you can clearly see, said the
Professor, in substance that this dit
ference in the weight of the brain
shows woman's intellectual infer
iority to man. How could it be 9th
erwise? A whole hundred grammes
of brains are not absent from wom-
ans skull for nothing.
We'll, the Professor died, and other
scientists thought that here was an
excellent chance TO see how much
the brain of a really brainy man
would weigh SO Prof Bischoff' s
cranial contents were placed on the
scales and their weight was found
to be precisely 1,245 grammes- just
five grammes lighter than the aver
age brain of intellectually inferior
woman and los grammes lighter
than the brain Of tie average man.
1t is to be regretted that Prof. Bis
chofi can not return to earth long
enough to tell us what he thinks OF
this, and to indicate the revision he
wishes made in his theory.-I'cld

Harrison and the Third Party.

The campaign in South Carolina
is marked by scarcely less bitterness
than characterized the movement
which resulted in the defeat OF Wade
Hampton. The Third Party in the
South is showing itself as aggres-
sively hostile TO the Democratic par
ty as it is to the Republican party
in Kansas. 1t is true that in South
Carolina the Third Party Governor
processes to be still in line with the
Democracy, but it is very evident
that this is entirely due to the Sec
tionalism of the Harrison admins
tration. Harrison and his radicals
have attacked the South so aggres-
sively that the respectable white ele-
ment of the Independent feels bound
to act on the defensive against Radi-
calism. Were it otherwise, the bit
terness engendered by the Third Par
ty movement in the South would
certainly show itself in the loss OF
several southern states this fall. But
white people at the South have not
the freedom of action that they have
in Kansas, Nebraska and other
Northwestern States. Every intelli-
gent white man at the South feels
that his first duty to his own State
and to the Union is to resist the Rad
icalism of Civil War sectionalism.
The Democratic party is the only
party, established in national politics
which offers any present hope of
holding this sectionalism in check.
If the Independents of the south
staked their political fortunes on
the formation of a new party in this
campaign, they would find them
selves at the mercy of the Harrison
faction of Radicals and Plutocrats.
Southern Independents are generally
alive to this. If they occupied the
position occupied by the Independ-
ents of Kansas and Nebraska, they
would be free to vote against both
the existing parties, but they will
not be able to bring themselves to
take the chances of getting second
term of Harrison.
With Harrison's defeat there will
be great change in American poll
tics. At the West and at the South
nearly every State will be doubtful,
and it will become impossible to con-
troll the Electoral College and seat
President by buying up the floating
Vote in single state.
This change will be greatly bene-
fetal to the entire country, and there
is very little doubt that it is close at
hand, for there is very little doubt
that Harrison will be defeated and
Civil War sectionaiism thrust into
the background forever.-St Louis
Republic.
