A SINGLE SILVER STANDARD.
Continued from page sir.)

this country. She has toiled hon
estly and patiently and looks up in
bewilderment wondering how it is
that she has worked so hard and
accomplished SO little. The truth
is she has earned much but enjoyed
little. She has been most shame
fully robbed by protection and set
back by every conceivable subsidy
and discouraged and mistreated in
many directions. Now then all
true patriots should come her relief
to help her make the weary
journey as easily as possible.
Inorder that this may be &C.
complished the government should
quit being run in the in
terest of "gift enterprise" and must
come right down to a hard headed
demophilic administration. The
free coinage men propose the coin
age of silver bullion at the ratio of
to 16 and think this a remedy.
In this they are greatly mistaken.
1t would simply be making Uncle
Sam pay $1.29 for what he can get
anywhere in the market for IS or
Sc cents. In other words it would
be robbing the people to the ulti-
mate injury of silver. It is simply
a dirty piece of protection and
would simply add more weight to
our bi-metallic balloon, our party
of values, credit finance humbug,
which is already overburdened and
over inflated and straining with all
the credit wind and debt weight it
can bear. This assertion is true
and if any one does not accept it, or
denies it, it is because he does not
understand our bi-metallic theory of
finance, (which is a most illogical
and unreasonable theory, which has
always made the people the VIC
tim of speculations in money and
makes them stand the shrinkage of
either metal that is the loss due to
depreciation or shrinkage ofeither
metal that is the loss due to depreci-
alton or shrinkage in value; as
system it is bad and thoroughly
unreasonable) and to such l would
recommend a very careful study of
the so-called bi-metallism or bi-me-
tallic system and for this we have
not John Sherman to blame but the
founders of the republic who left
this most atrocious piece of illogic
to us.
1t is this same system in which
we fixed the relative price of these
commodities, the precious metals,
thereby agreeing to make the peo-
pie pay for the shrikage on either of
them. This has been the principle
on which our finances have rested
from the beginning and other ma
tons have taken advantage of us.
The ruinous buying of deprecated
silver at the ratio of 1 to 16 was
stopped by limited coinage-a safe
guard which should have been
adopted long before. 1t has been
said that government bonds are
payable in United State coin either
gold or silver, even now. That is
quite true, but how does that help
the matter? The man takes his sill
Yer and gets gold for it anywhere in
the United States or at the treasury,
for we have agreed to make them as
good as gold and that is the way its
is done and no other. In fact every
party, including our own so-called
silver parties, demand and have al
ways demanded that the silver dol
lars shall be make as good as the
gold dollar. Our government faith
and word is built everywhere upon

A WORD AS TO OUR STATE PLATFORM.


lighting for matters Of national import
ance. The platform utteranceS should
be chiefly devoted to the three great
features Of general reform. But In ad-
dltlon to our national demands | feel very
strongly that our state platform should
contain declaration clear and unequivo-
cal for woman's enfranchisement, and
another equally strong, pledging support
to such temperance laws as we have
until we get the better and stronger
methods OF entire state control as indl-
Gated In the resolution adopted by the
Methodist ministers Of Kansas.
It will be grave mistake involving
disastrous consequences should our state
platform fail to embrace the suffrage and
temperance issues 1t does not at all
follow that their recognition will enVOlve
their discussion during the campaign.
There is not one new word to be said on
either subject. The rank and file OF
Kansas voters are by large majority In
favor Of both. They have been under
discussion for years and our people are
well educated thereon. II is only nec-
essary that strong, genuine and concise
declarations be made. Our campaign
speakers can then simply point to the
platform to which they are pledged and
then proceed Immediately to argue for
for the all important national issues.
It will be q mistaken policy to leave
out these questions thinking thereby to
keep our enemies from compelling US to
waste time in their discussion. That
policy prevailed in our first campaign. 1t
was argued that by leaving out the tenn
perance plank we would compel our oppO'
nents to discuss our main issues. We
found, however, that nothing could COM
pei them to discuss, or even mention
With fairness or dignity, the great Issues
which we so faithfully taught, but In.
stead of treating the prohibition ques-
tion as a settled question they forced 1t
upon US and compelled vastly more men,
tIon Of 1t than II we had squarely de-
clared ourselves as favorIng the enforce
ment OF existing laws. We, moreover, were
at q disadvantage, and under suspicion
from thousands OF temperance men, true
hearted, patriotic people in the towns
and cities, who would otherwise have
gladly cast their votes with new re-
form party. These people honestly be-
lleved that the temperance question wac
greater than any Of the issues Of our
platform, and fearing that all they had
gained ln the state would be jeopardizsd
by our success they dared not come with
us. shall never cease to believe that
we should have swept the state and
carried everything in our first campaign
had we been wise enough to be out
spoken, and thus gained the town vote
Let US beware Of repeating the mistake.
The Peoples party platforms Of Cali
iornia, Of Michigan, of Minnesota, are
strong and unequivocal on these ques"
tlons. Indiana, Ohio, Nebraska, Dakota
and other states will be equally so. One
after another the states will fall into line
80 soon as agitation and education can
do the work. Then when our united
effort shall have saved the homes Of the
people we will be strong enough to pro-
tect them from every foe, great or small.

Gen. Weaver arrived at st. Louis re-
Gently after his four weeks tour of the
far west To a reporter Gen. Weaver
said: 81 have been through Colorado,
Nevada, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho,

am as confident of carrying each and
every one of those states as that the
election occurs l am more impressed
than ever before that an ominous spirit
of unrest is abroad in the land. The
people know there is something ter
ribly wrong, and in sheer desperation
they are turning from the corrupt old
parties to ours for relief. / never saw
such crowds in my life as greeted me at
every one of my stopping places.
have spoken to acre after acre of peo-
pie, and all along my route of 5000
miles the stations were crowded with
visitors to cheer me on" After refer
ence to the meager reports given from
these states by the representatives of
the Associated press, Gen. Weaver con-
tinued: Il am no rainbow chaser-I
never was in my life. But you mark
my words now, and report me correct
ly. The electoral votes of the eight
western states l have named will be
cast for me. Why, in Nevada only
one electoral ticket is in the field. Four
out of five votes in Colorado will be cast
for me. California is as sure as Nevada
and have just received letter from
Gov. Pennoyer assuring me that Oregon
is absolutely safe. There is no doubt
in the world as to the result in Wyom-
ing, Washington, Montana and Idaho
These states, you see, will give me an
aggregate electoral vote of So" Gen.

A GRAND HORSE SHOW.
Fine Animals from Every Part of thu

Fine Animals from Every Part of the
World for the Great Fair.
Lovers of fine horses will be thor
oughly satisfied when they come to the
worlds fair and see the horse show
cultural department, is going to make.
This feature of Mr.. Buchanan's depart
ment is being worked up with great
care, and if his expectations meet with
the realization which he anticipates
there will be the greatest show of fine
horses in Chicago during the progress
of the fair that the world has ever seen.
There will be specimens of fine horse
flesh from every part of the world where
breeding and raising of the equine is
given any attention. This congrepa-
ton of noted horses will in itself make
show that would inspire the brush
of Rosa Bonheur. The great Orloff
brothers from Russia and the French
Dem-Sang family of fast steppe1s will
compare points with Sunol, Axtell.
and Americas best.
Owing to the probability of there not
being sufficient space for this feature of
n BGeEanan's exhibit in the grounds
l!io-tcf. to him =; Jackson park ar
arguments will be made to have The
= e show held probably at Washin -
to.i park or at some point that can be
conveniently reached from the main
grounds.
In line with Chief Buchanan's plan
for the horse fair an offer was recently
received from M. W. Dunham. of
Wayne, Ill, guaranteeing the money
necessary for premiums on the DEM
Sang family of French trotters. Mr..
Dunham represents the French Coach
Horse society, of America, and the So
ciety, through him, offers premiums on
all prize horses from five years of age
down. On both stations and mares Of
the first class . premium of one hun
dred and fifty dollars Is offered. For,
the second, third and fourth classes
fine medals are offered; for the best
stallion with five colts, two hundred;
dollars and medal Also the same, two
hundred dollars and medal, for the best
mare with two colts, these latter being
family contests, where the points of all
will be judged collectively.
In addition to this, the French breed
ers have offered as a premium for the
finest general collection Of French trot-
ters a very handsome, full-sized statue
in bronze of typical French trotter.
This model is a production of the great
French artist Isadore Bonheur, who is
a relative of Rosa Bonheur, made IA
nous by her wonderful painting, THE
Horse Fair"

The Texas Campaign.

The Texas Campaign.
Judge Nugent, peoples party NOM
inee for governor of Texas, formally
opened the campaign at Austin with a
ringing speech, which was listened to
by large audience. He prefaced his
remarks with the memorable words of
Gen. Grant, Let us have peace" and
declared if the politicians could have
been quieted this patriotic expectation
would have long since been realized
Great men," Judge Nugent said mo
longer lead the old parties, because
great men are men of soul, of human
ity, of genius, of inspiration. They
never are machine men. Labor is in
chains while the politicians are slxurry-
ing over the country repeating political
platltudes, holding up tariff schedules
in one hand and the bloody shirt in
the other, vainly endeavoring to head
off the moving column of reform as it
advances to victory" He asked: ''What
does Wall street care for the tariff
question so long as she controls the
finances? With even free trade, control
of the money of the country would
give her control of wages, of usury, of
the property and the labor of the
country. What more could she have
unber protection?" The judges speech
was frequently apqlauded and, al
though he held his audience for some
time, the enthusiasm was greater at the
close than when he commenced

AN INFAMOUS LIE.

The Peoples Party is InlIterablv Opposed
t'' Federal Int~rf-re ":l h.iecaio :.
That plutocratic sheet, The Savannah
Morning News, says:
Would the democrats OF the south
who have bscome identified with the
third party like to have IL force bin
passed? Do they know what such
bill means for the south? If they do
not they should inform themselves at
once, and when they become possessed
of the information they will not be long
in deciding that they have made mis-
take in leaving the democratic party
Perhaps they do not know that
majority of the members of the third
party favor a force bill. These third
party people who want force bill were
republicans, and they are still republic
ans at heart"
A cause must be weak, indeed, that
takes such mendacious assertions to
bolster it up This malicious lie is
penned in the face of the facts that the
history of the force bill proves that the
men that now, and did at that time,
compose the peoples party uttered
their solemn protest against the passage
of the force bill; and it was the nation
al alliance and the peoples party's op-
position to it that caused many repub-
licans to oppose its passage. 1t can be
irrefutably proved that the peoples
party of the west. and the alliance
orders of the same, were the parties
that caused the defeat of the force bill.
Every meeting of the alliance, every
convention of the peoples party gives
the assertion the lie
The democratic party as it now stands
| is huge sham. The most vital princi-
Piles of democracy are outraged by the
venal crowd that call themselves demo-
Gratis. The members of congress, be-
longing to the so-called democracy, have
been voting, and are still voting, to up
hold laws that are crushing out the last
vestige of true democracy, and with it
liberties of the people. If you don't be-
lieve this go to the record
1t looks well for a centralizing federal
sheet to call men that hold the princi-
Piles of Jefferson in esteem, anarchists
and demagogues. party that has no
record to go before the people on, but
one that will damn it in the eyes of all
true thinking patriots. 1t may try to
bolster up its cause by lying on it's op-
ponents, and by such unholy methods
seek to hide its insidious thrusts at the
liberties of the people. But truth,
though crushed for a time, will rise
again with concentrated energy, and
woe be to the lying caitiff that stands
in its way.
The principles of the peoples party
are living ones and on living issues AS
long as the love of liberty exists in the
human breast they will bourgeon and
grow. The mouth-piece of plutocracy
may howl and, like swapping ours, bay
at the moon, but no amount of lying or
slander will stop its onward march un-
til monopoly and class legislation shall
cease. Democracy indeed! There is no
refuge for the true democrat 1cept in
the peoples party. 1t has taken I'D the
old banner that had been debauched
and thrown away by the corruptionists.
and the people will carry it to victory
and crown it once more with honor
