THE POINT OF VIEW.

Arkansas City Traveller: The dem
ocratic papers In Kansas should put
Weaver and Field at the head ol
their columns instead Of Cleveland
and stevenson. Be consistent.
lola Register: 1t has been alleged
and commonly believed that the
Democratic party Of the South has
been In the habit of disfranchisIne
othe. political parties; but it re.
mained for the democratic party oi
Kansas to deliberately disfranchise
itself.
Mcpherson Freeman: It Ii easier
to beat two than one In an election,
hence, democratic endorsement Of
the Alliance state and electoral tick
ct gives the Republican party a
harder fight. But the victory will
be Republican In November. This
prediction 10 made upon an abiding
faith In the good sense and judgment
Of men. The Republican party has
the record for efficient work done,
that must commend itself to the peo.
pie OF Kansas.
Abilene Chronicle: The demo-
cratic cry now, "Vote for Weaver In
Kansas, and you will be giving q
vote to Cleveland II such be the
case, every peoples party vote will be
doing the same trick. How will
that settled fact set on the stomachs
Of the old soldiers In the peoples
party who have been denoupciDg
Cleveland for years on his pension
record? Think Of the situation gen.
tlemen, before you commit your
selves farther In opposition to Ben
jamin Harrison.
Minneapolis Messenger: The reg
ular nc ninees Of the Democratic par
ty In Kansas for President and Vice
President are Weaver and Field.
Some Of u Q old-fashioned kind Of
Democrats may think that they will
still have the privilege Of voting for
Cleveland, but that 10 not the case.
They have no electoral ticket repre-
senting that Democratic idol, and
they dare not under the law have
Democratic tickets printed which
would carry bis name. IL looks very
much - II the Democratic party Of
Kansas hsd been sold out by corrupt
leaders.
Concordia Empire: II is not neces-
sary for the alliance-peoples-party.
calamsty -populists to be hunting any
longer for Q name to conceal their
identity. while the fiction may be
worked awhile In other states. n N
played out In Kansas. Here there
are bot two parties In the national
and state campaigns, the republican
and democratic, mo matter what 9TH
eF names may bs used. Every vote
cast will count either for Harrison
or Clevsland. Every man 10 . rep
lican or democrat In spite Of what
many have been trying 10 make
Themselves believe about IN inde-
pendent party.

the ordinary pill. Trouble when
you take it, and trouble when you've
got it down. Plenty of unpleasant
ness, but mighty little good.
With DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets,
there's no trouble. They're made
to prevent it. They're the origi-
nal little Liver Pills, tiny, sugar
coated, anti-bilious granules, purely
vegetable, perfectly harmless, the
smallest, easiest and best to take.
They cleanse and regulate the whole
system, in a natural and easy way
mildly and gently, but thoroughly
and effectively. One little Pellet
for q laxative three for q cathar-
tic. Sick Headache, Bilious Head
ache, Constipation, Indigestion, Bill.
ious Attacks, and all arrangements
of the liver, stomach and bowels are
prevented, relieved and cured.
They're the cheapest pill you can
buy, for they're guaranteed to give
satisfaction, or your money is re-
turned.
You pay only for the value re-
ceived. Can you ask more?

other men barred by oil the rules OF

the creation Of y home market, the

opponents of insincerity, all come
under the head of those who cannot

SUNDAY CLOSING.

More than Q ripple Of excitement
has been caused by the Mayors
order to the police closing mp all
business houses on Sunday. While
the Mayor 10 undoubtedly con.
scientious In his position, yet 1t
strikes the JOURNAL that there II .
great deal Of unreason I'm the order.
First, the moral aide Of it Ii assumed
from false premises. There are
men In this city whose religion for
bids the recognition Of Sunday -
the Sabbath. As far as religion goss
theirs is the most ancient of earth,
and even to this day IL entitled to
the respect Of all men. Any Law or
command that interferes with their
right to put into practice that religion
Ii . piece of unnecessary persecu-
tion that has no place in this coun-
try, and much less a. guide for .
liberal and broad-minded public
officer.
There are other considerations
worthy Of more than passing notice,
and one Is II the city administration
Ii such . stickler for Sunday OBJ
servance, why was IL left to the
present to begin . campaign for its
enforcement, when more than half
the Mayors term has expiredf II
1t Ii wrong now 1t has not been .
virtue for fifteen months before now.
1t lie conceded everywhere that es-
Establishments for the dispensation Of
food could be kept open ON
Sunday, but this order Of the Mayor
overrides all precedent ard even ex-
tends to restaurants, where food il
sold. The JOURNAL has always
treated the Mayor with considers
tion and his administration with re-
spect, and 1t will always do 90, but
1t 10 the duty Of honest newspapers
to fight error, and denounee perse-
cution-and ridicule crankism. We
hope to nee at least modification Of
this order by next Sunday.
