FIAT FOOLISHNESS,

Jerry Simpson first won public atten.
ton by his denunciation of men who
had made money, and by airing his
great national financial schemes. He
had only love and respect for that per
cent Of humanity who tried to become
rich but failed, and hatred for the fell
lows who succeeded. In Jerry's estima-
ton it was all right to attempt to catch
on to few extra dollars, but criminal
to succeed. To give our readers an idea
as to what kind of financial statesman
Jerry is, we quote a paragraph from a
bill on coinage which he introduced at
the Last session of congress. Comments
for sensible men are unnecessary:
''One year from and after the passage
OF this act, the coinage Of gold and sill
yer coin above the denomination of 25
cents shall cease. And that three years
from the date of the passage of this act
such coin shall no longer be legal tender,
and the United States shall provide for
the redemption of all such coins at their
face value by exchanging them for legal
tender paper money, and manufacture
them into bars and keep the same on
sale"

THE PARTY OF PROSPERITY.

The Democratic papers and campaign
speakers in all the states but three or
four are abusing and viilifying the Peo-
ple's party. Nothing is too mean for
them to say or do. In Kansas the
machine part of the Democratic party
are coddling the Peoples party for their
own selfish ends, but the scheme won't
work. There never has been the shadow
of show for Weavers election, and the
honest, candid Peoples party men are
beginning TO tumble to the situation.
They are losing faith in the rainbow
chasers, and the result is there will be
another landslide this fall and the Re-
publican ticket will get the benefit of it.
An intelligent discussion OF the political
issues is fast thinning the ranks of the
ghost-dancers. The agitators of wild
cat currency and the repudiators of hon.
est debts and the defamers of the best
country the sun ever shone upon are be-
ing exposed, and there is stampede to
get out of bad company. Unfortunately
for these political jackals, there is no re-
cent disaster for them to howl over, and
post-mortems have grown wearisome.
The party of prosperity, the party of
sunshine and rain, the party that stands
up for the home, the party that under
all circumstances stands up for Kansas,
is on top this year.
The Wichita daily eagle., 1892-10-20
SIMPSONS STATECRAFT.

That Jerry Simpson has assumed the
role of leading statesman in the new dis
pensation there is no longer doubt. No
difference how his fame has been ac-
quired, he has it and above all the rest.
And knowing this Jerry is not slow to
take advantage CT it to serve his own
personal aims and crafty his personal
ambitions. Passing over the why's and
wherefores that have led up to this state
of the case, if the next legislature should
be carried by the Peoples party Jerry
will be made the running mate of PETER
in the senate. But few of the people of
Kansas know how this fool talks and
what he really believes. He would pass
laws for the taxation of land and tax it
until there would be no private owner
ship Of land, but all would be renters
and pay rent to the government suffi-
cient to meet all needs and necessities.
This is the burden of his song. The
present system of taxation lies at tn
bottom of all the real or imagined
trouble in this country, according to
Simpson. He would have no tariff. no
internal revenue, and no tax on personal
property or on improvements on laai,
but raise all revenues from land direct.
The following extracts from his speech.
deliveredsn congress on April 10. 1899,
show his real position:
Private property in land is doomed
Property in land is as indefenslble as
property in man.
The only way to abolish private
property in land is by the way of tax
alton"
The way is Straightforward. It con-
sists simply in aboiisbing, one after
another, all imposts that are in their
nature really taxes and resorting for
putaic reSenUes, TO ecaiosnic rent On
ground values
AS land cannot be hidden or carried

MARCH TOWARD SLAVERY,

1t is a common practice in Tennessee
to arrest men out of employment fol
vagrancy and trivial offences. By this
means many men who are law-abiding
citizens are found to work in the con.
vict camps. We clip the following ad.
vertisement from a Norfolk (Va- } news.
paper which shows this abominable prac.
tice is spreading:
''This is to notify all dr. edgers, woods
men and farmers that the police court of
Norfolk will furnish vagrants and hire
them out for three months. with the
privilege of working said vagrants with
ball and chain if necessary, or will fur
nish the said vagrants to the superin-
dents of any public works in this city, to
work with ball and chain. for three
months. / hereby ask all officers to ar
rest, according to law, all persons who
have no visible means of support and, if
the supply exceeds the demand, will
send them 10 Jail for three months to be
fed on bread and water. This is done at
the request of the board of health as a
sanitary measure, and under the au-
thority vested in me by section SS5, code
of Virginia.

GEORGIA ON MRS. LEASE.

Mrs. Lease may try to crawl out oi
her expressed sentiment of southern
Democrats and excuse them for throw.
ing rotten eggs at her, but that will not
effect the estimate of the southern chiv-
airy of her. One Ham, in a public
speech m Georgia, delivered himself of
the following estimate of Mrs. Lease,
some days subsequent to the rotten egg
episode as an excuse for the action. He
said:
"Well, boys, she is a plumb sight. If
l had hound dog that would bark at
her as she passed by the gate I'd kill
him before night. She could sit on a
stump in the shade and keep the cows
out of a 1C0-acre corn field without a
gun. She's got face that's harder and
sharper than a butchers cleaver.
could take her by the heels and split an
inch board with it. She's got nose
like an ant-eater, voice like cat fight
and face that is rank poison to the
naked eye."
The Wichita daily eagle., 1892-10-20
MRS. LEASES DENIAL.

1t was doubtless noticed by every
reader of the EAGLE of yesterday morn.
ing that Mrs. Leases pretended denial OF
the interview attributed to her was q
very tbinly disguised fraud. She does
not deny the Inter Ocean interview al
all nor does her denial cover anything OF
importance published by that paper. Her
dennnciations of the southern Democ-
racy aud their treatment of herself and
Weaver stand. They are facts that can
not be overthrown, and the only point
to the interview is her confession of the
truth as everybody understood it.
1t is nonsense for Mistress Mollie to
deny word of that Interview for she
expressed herself in stronger terms and
to the same import to her friends in this
city before leaving for the east.
The Wichita daily eagle., 1892-10-20

Every now and then something occurs
some act or expression OF an migrate
brings to mind the coupIet from Shake
speare's King Lear Of
How sharper than serpent's tooth it is
TO have thankless child.
Bishop John n. Brown, of the African
Methodist Episcopal church of Nash
vile, Tenn, says he has changed his
politics because his race has nothing to
hope for in the Republican party. Then
in the name of God where does he hope
to find anything in the interest Of his
race? But for the Republican party,
instead of being Brown bishop that
worthy would today be a black slave.
His statement is tantamount to an ad.
mission that he believes ignorance and
slavery is better for his people than free
dom aud the privileges of intelligent
citizenship. II the Republican party
were to withdraw its concern for the
welfare of the colored race, even to the
limited extent it is permitted to mani
fest it in the south where the great body
of that people reside, and their condition
would soon become worse than it was
wheu they were human cha.tels. But
the bishops sympathizers among his
own people are few in numbers.

CLEVELAND AND TIE SOLDIER.

From the Brooklyn Union
When Cleveland was president he sal
down to the vetoing of pension bills as
his recreation and ratified them off with
coarse efforts to be funny. In the case
of his veto of Andrew j. Wilson, he
said:
Whatever else may be said of this
claimants achievements during his short
military career, it must be conceded that
he accumulated a great deal of disa-
bility."
In the case of Alfred Denny:
The numLer of instances in which
those of our soldiers who rode horses
during the war were injured by being
thrown forward on their saddles indicate
that those saddles were very dangero US
contrivances."
In the case of John w. Ferris:
The ingenuity developed IN the con-
slant and persistent attacks upon the
public treasury by those claiming pen
sions, and in the increase OF those
already granted, is exhibited in bold
relief by this attempt TO include sore
eyes in cases of diarrhea"
This is barroom wit; and gotten off BY
president OF the United States about
soldiers. it has not pleasant flavor.
These are some OF the writings of Grover
Cleveland tn at give the soldiers true
picture Of his mind
The Wichita daily eagle., 1892-10-20

Hon. Whitelaw Reid's letter formally
accepting the nomination for vice presi-
dent, though condensed in form is con-
else in statement of principles and the
issues of the campaign. The contest is
between the Republican and Democratic
partios-a fact SO patent that it needs no
argument, and the issue is concentrated
in the two questions of the tariff and
finance. The positions of the two par
ties on these, and the relative effects for
good or evil upon the material concerns
of the great masses of the people are
succinctly set out, not as mere guess
work, but based upon the experience
the country has already had along these
lines. The letter is entirely devoid of
verbosity and effort to mystify, and is a
clear straightforward, manly declaration
of wha: Republicanism is and means.
