THE GkAND OLD PARTY.
a ABSOLUTELY PURE

The work and the Iegacies OF the
late Republican National convention
demonstrate that the world still
has need Of that organization known
to history as the Republican party
Of the United States Of America.
We have been informed from time
out Of mind that the organization to
which we give our political alle-
glance was q mere ephemeral affair !;
that 1t sprang into existence and
the full vigor Of strength In q day
for the accomplishment OF q single
end; that end accomplished. IL must
needs pass away as suddenly as 1t
came, In the order Of nature. But
this is not true.
Today, after the ninth quad
riennisl gathering Of the representa-
tives OF its sovereign strength-the
people-ws are led to believe its
work has been only we'll begun and
its manifest destiny is to live as long
rs this government shall endure.
This government, too, that It snatch
ed from the vortex Of destruction
and Democratic mismahagement;
that 1t defended when il was held in
contempt and ridicule by all the ma
tons Of the earth; when it had not
q dollar In Its treasury, and was
destitute Of credit; when its indus
tries were paralyzed and its people
were too poor to buy the goods Of
other nations. IL quelled the most
gigantic civil war in the history of
the world It abolished human slay-
cry; and IL has paid the bills for do
ing both. 1t established Q system Of
finance that Is unquestionsble; it has
compelled every nation to respect
our country and her flag IL they
would not voluntarily do SO. 1t has
protected and encouraged American
industries and made the condition
Of the American workingmen the
envy OF the same class In all other
hohiohb. ~ mas Ahoec ooi hhtioh
absolutely independent, and by its
system Of establishing trade rela-
tions with other nations makes its
future In commerce the assured
king Of the world. What! Its work
10 done when IL must live to defend
its good works from the onslsughts
Of the giants OF opposition snd the
apostles Of despair?
Its present works are set forth in
its platform Of principles, and we
will attend to the future when the
time arrives. The Republican party
has never yet violated its pledges. 1t
has done more than 1t promised.
When liberty dies 1t will be time to
think about the obsequies Of the Re-
publican party.

Il
The Mugwump Kansas City Star
concludes, after q careful survey of
the situation, that "the way 10 not
yet open for the Mugwumps to re-
turn to the Republican party" As
Republican we are glad to see the
Star catch on to the situation SO
aptly. Not only IL the way not open
for the Mugwumps to return to the
Republican party, but IL never will
be. After getting rid OF such rub
bish and demonstrating to the world
that it can still live, the Republican
party will take good care not to
allow them to come back to SOW dis
cord and find fault.
The Architect Of the Universe
never contrived a greater carIcature
on the animal he made In his own
image than when he created these
same Mugwumps, and in our day
there have been caricatures. In re-
ligion we laugh at the peculiarities
and the vagaries OF the salvation
army. In politics we have the So
called Peoples party. In society we
have Ward McAllister and his 100"
and 80 on. Yet in no one Is the in
SEPARATION Of contempt so complete,
or the sense OF the ludicrous SO
strongly developed as in the Mug
wump, In all the walks Of life.
There are only few Of the breed
and they will soon be extinct.
Evidently the Almighty considered
that humanity needed the salutary
influence OF horrid example and so
sent US the Mugwumps. No, the
time has not yet arrived for their
return to the Republican party"
aud we repeat, Republicans will be
sure to take good care that they do
not "return." They undoubtedly
would "return," as no other body
Of men are willing to accord them
the privileges Of q political home
and to the credit OF other political
bodies, be IL said, they show remark
able acumen, in knowing exactly
what they don't want. We doubt il
even the Devil wants them, for just
rs sure as he let's them in they will
start an anti-administration row In
his kingdom.

your many readers about wha
happened In our pretty little cit,
last Monday night. 1t had been an

Democrat heads-or their own
Accordingly the Rev. Judge Pate,
came out and preached-speeched

preaching, because he asserts things
'continously, but proves nothing
He did not sustain or establish 9
single assertion he made unless Il
was that he once had q fellow de.
feated for an office because he wa,
not fit for the place. 1t would be q
good plan, In that case to turn Pattee
loose against Pattee.
He related that . Republican
friend Of his had told him that he
supposed the Republicans Of Kansas
would adopt prohibition platform
and stand q resubmissionist on It.
But the Rev. Judge who il . pious
prohib forgot to tell his audience
that he voted for q resubmissionist
for attorney general last fall. But
then the Rev. Judge, Of course, he
didn't know IL.
Well II was amusing to hear him
talk about I'VE farmers" Why the
Reverend did about all his farming
on the heads of cattle. "How We
apples swim" etc. Finally the Rev.
Judge said he guessed he would quilt
and rs silence gives consent he
suited the action to the word and did
actually stop. I should have said,
however, that before he did 90, he
gave . very reverend, o preacher like
pharaphrase, OF one Of the Psalms.
After the speech an opportunity was
offered to converts TO ''jinen the
Peoples party, and organize club
for Eureka and Gypsum townships.
As Peoples party folks 20 to meet
In far and near there was present
about seventy-five, besides women
and some children. About forty
odd attached their names to the club

Even last night they put up Job
on one mighty young orator who In
much like o chameleon, reflects

They regard him ~ great catch

A few days ago he expressed Q
willingness to 60 TO Salins - o Re-

A Boise City dispatch of Oct. 3rd
says: The democratic committee,
through their secretary. filed q ticket
with Secretary Of State Pinkham to
day. In obedience to instructions from
the democratic national committee they
left of the names of the democratic
electors. substituting the peoples party
electors therefor. The action Of the
state committee Il severely criticised by
the leading democrats here. Many ex-
press indignation that they are not to
be allowed to vote for Cleveland and
hang their heads in shame. They feel
sore over the slaughter Of democratic
hopes In the state at the expence of
national party politics. Republicans
are jubilant. They say this putting
down Of democratic electors is an open
confession on the part Of the democrats
that they could not carry the state for
Cleveland. 1t also shows that the dem
ocrats regard the peoples party in the
light Of allies to the democrats, and
that it is anything to beat Harrison.
Many republicans here who have, up to
this time looked with some favor upon
the peoples party movement On &C.
count Of their free coinage plank, now
that they see the local object Of the
movement are deserving the populist
ranks and coming back into the old
party. The news Of the coalition be-
tween the democrats and populists was
received with much joy At republican
headquarteu. Leading politicians now
have no fear Of carrying the state for
Harrison and Reid and the entire state
by 1900 majority. 1t is safe estimate
that fully two-thirds Of the republican
votes that have gone over to the popu-
lists will come back.
