in the West in 1890. The Kansas man
took his seat on the Republican side of
the Senate, and, as rule. has seemed to
act mainly with the Republicans on
minor issues.
Mr.. Kyle has acted a similarpart with
the Democrats. PETER has been rather
aggressive in bringing forward matters
supposed to represent the reforms de-
manded by the Populist party. &
Kyle has been strikingly modest, and
somewhat quiet, confirming his attention
to merely routine business, and casting
his vote on every question.
Evidently these two gentlemen realize
the Importance of their position. Their
votes may be needed to organize the
! senate next March, and in that case they
will have tremendous power and patron
age to divide among their friends and
supporters. The bright and aspiring
young Populists Of Kansas and South
Dakota should make note of this fact,
and ask! recognition from the men whom
their efforts served to elevate to so ex-
allied position.
* Observation-Disclosures
B Neither PETER Or Kyle will just now
consent to talk to newspaper men. APP
preached by your correspondent each
smiled blandly, and in sucn strikingly
analogical style that it seemed hardly
possible that the twin smirks should not
have been begotten at the same moment,
and been cast in the same mould. Each,
also, refused to make any kind of a
statement as to his intentions. Each
proclaimed that he was not as yet pre-.
pared to take his constituents into his
confidence. Elch stated in almost pre-.
cisely similar phraseology the unaeni-
able fact that many things might trans.
pire before the 4th Of March next Which
would seriously defect their actions
from the channels in which their
thoughts and purposes were now calmly
flowing. Senator'S PETER and Kyle more
4 and more impress me as great men.
! They have magnificent platform, with
the world for al audience, and yet, they
have sufficient discretion, to know that
silence is golden.
But the young men, apd the middle
aged men, and the old men Of the
Astounding West, who have allied them.
selves with the Populist party,do not
want to neglect this opportunity.
( Messrs. PETER and Kyle will probably
be III the saddle on the 4th day Of next
4 March, and will doubtless have at their
disposal vast amount of first class pat
ronage. to bestow. They will no doubt
be highly pleased with this opportunity
Il to- aid their friends. The boys SHOULD
come on to Washington and participate
in the feast Of good things.
