at Democratic Headquarters Kept
Busy Taking the Situation.
Yfw YonK, August 26.-Tbe class in
political economy IN the Republican
national school has increased wonder
fully since the last presidential CAM
paign. It is estimated ut headquarters
that fully one hundred thousand new
students Of the Mckinley text book on
the tariff have matriculated in the last
week. The applications for tariff liter
ature ran up into the hundreds yester-
day. It looks like another Campaign
OF education The Republican tutors
find all their new scholars we'll
grounded in the rudiments, and anxious
topush forward and win their degrees.
The commencement on November S is
sure to be grand. :.
Chairman Carter was busy as usual
yesterday. Among his early callers was
senator Bishop w. Perkins, OF Kansas.
The Democrats have tried to create the
impression that Kansas was already in
line. for Cleveland. Senator Perkins
thinks differently. In speaking on the
subject, the senator said:
eIrhe situation is improving for the
Republicans every day The party Is
Organizing for a progressive and an en-
ergetic campaign. We wiki make the
best campaign this year ever made by
heparty in its history, and believe II
will result in Republican victory.
do not think there is any question
about the election Of the Republican
state ticket, and ! think We are abso-
lutely certain OF the election OF five
tmonbers OF Congress, il not solid Re
publican delegation. ! think We are
certain Of the election Of the Republic
can electoral ticket, although the fight
for that will be harder than for the
state ticket.
t'There arc hundreds and thousands
OF Democrats who will vote for the Poo
ple's electoral ticket, knowing that there
is no probability OF the election OF Mr..
Weaver, but will not vote for the Peo-
pies state ticket, as they do not desire
tina control ofthe state turned over to
the Peoples party, for which reason
the election Of the Republican state
ticket is assured beyond question. The
electoral ticket is reasonably certain, as
many Of the best people OF the state
who have heretofore voted IN opposition
to the Republican party will vote for the
Republican candidates this year, as they
realize that nothing in the history OF
our state has hurt our credit and attec-
ted our reputation as the success OF the
Peoples party two years ago did. The
rallying cry OF the Republican party
thisJyear is to be Stand by Kansas,
and all realize the misfortune OF the AL
lance success OF two years ago, Tor
which reason the most energetic and
best organized campaign that our state
has ever known will be prosecuted this
year.
A PATRIOTIC STATE.
itAgain, Kansas is an intensely pa
triotic state, with a larger proportion of
old soldiers to the population than any
other state in the union. Many OF these
old soldiers voted with the Alliance
party two years ago, but they are be.
ginning to realize that vote for Mr..
Weaver this year means an indirect
vote for Mr.. Cleveland, with whom they
donot sympathize in single particu-
lar. The administration OF Mr.. Cleve-
land was not in keeping with the SYM
pathies or interest Of the people OF Kan
sas in any way. His public lands pol
icy, his Indian policy, his veto OF PEN
sion bills and his financial policy were
aliin opposition to the sympathy and
interest Of the people Of Kansas.
eHis policy OF favoring national banks
with large deposits and his keeping I'M
necessarily large volumes OF public
money boarded in the treasury was in
opposition to what the people OF our
state believed to- be the policy which
should be observed by the national adj
ADMINISTRATION. For these reasons, as
wellas for many others, II the contest
was direct one between President
Harrison and Mr.. Cleveland, Mr.. Har-
rison would carry the state by more
than one hundred thousand majority.
In fact the public sentiment OF Kansas
is so strongly against Mr.. Cleveland
that the Democrats hayo not nominated
an electoral ticket, and there will not
be single clector in our state to stand
for Mr.. Cleveland in the approaching
contest. By tho voluntary action Of the
leaders Of tho Democratic party IN Kan
sas their party has boon DISTINGUISHED
and left without an electoral ticket or o
single candidate for state office, and
only in ono or two congressional dis
tricts Wilt presume to run o candi-
date.
1.-THE candidate of the Peoples Party
for congressmcn-at-large is an ex-con-
federate soldier, while that of the Re-
publican party Is Ex-Governor Antho-
ny, who was Union soldier. He is
also an excellent campaigner and an
able man. The mistake OF the Peoples
party in nominating an ex.Confederate
will work to tho advantage OF the Re.
publican party. and their nominations
Tor congressman and other state posi-
tions are generally weak. AS rule
they have nominated broken.down pol
iticians, brokers and bankers for their
candidates, and almost in every in
stance have ignored competent farmers
who aspire to office.
PlEAsED WITH HARRISON.
aThe Republicans were fortunate in
their nominations and have put forward
q very stroug state ticket as well as
strong men for Congress. The Re.
publican candidate for governor is q
successful farmer, with large legislative
