Aid the Democrats In the South.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Nov. Ex-senator
w. A. PETER, United States Senator
from Kansas. stopped over in the city
few hours today on his way from Topeka
to Washington, When asked how
the result of the election suited him he
said: 81 am delighted with the result.
Our party elected seven out of the eight
congressman in Kansas. We now have
a majority of three in the Legislature on
Joint ballot, which means that Populist
will be elected from Kansas to succeed
the late Senator Plumb in the United
States Senate.
THE next President after Cleveland
will be a Populist. Our issues will be
the silver and taxation questions. and
on them we are sure to win. The Demo
Gratis will have control OF the Senate
after March 4, and the Populists will
vote with them on the tariff question
As a choice between the Democrats and
Republicans we will be found on the side
of the Democracv."-N. Y. Sun.

TOPEKA, Kan, Nov. 16.-Oflicial re-
turns from Jerry Simpsons district give
him 1 400 majority. Two years ago he

The leaders OF the fusion party fear that
a new man would be defeated in that
district ifSimpson's seat in congress was
vacated and SPECIAL election held.
Mrs. Lease-and she ought to know
says Jerry Simpson is straight out
Democrat; that he is using the Peoples
party and that the members do not seem
to realize it. At the Democratic ban
quets since the election Simpson has ap-
peared as an invited guest and in his
speeches was credited with the statement
that the Democratic party would now
take the place of the Peoples movement
and carry on the reforms inaugurated by
it. He says he is in favor cf a Democrat
for Senator because "they played fair
with us this time and we will need them
in the future"
On the face of the returns from every
county in the second district. Funston

Taxation for Punishment.

The Democratic party must bear the re-
sponsibility Of the HATCH Anticipation bill.
which passed the House on Monday under
suspension Of the rules. There was no d.
vision on party lines. the House voting for
the measure by majority OF nearly four to
one. 1t Is not to tho credit OF the Demo-
cratic party that n bill which represents
tho most vicious mcddllng pntcrnnlism
should DO supported by moro than two
thirds OF a Democratic House.
The Democratic party has for many years
profcssed It's devotion to revenue reform.
Some superior souls have got gooseflesh
over tho unconstitutionality and wicked
ness Of protective duties. Yet now II DEM
ocrntic House commits itself to the propo-
sition that tho Government may impose
taxes on dealers In options and futures, not
for tho purpose OF raising revenue. but for
tho purpose Of hampering or prohibiting
persons engaged in that occupation,
and Of helping the farmers. or assuming
to help them. Tho sensitive gentlemen
who regard 1t ms unconstitutional
and monstrouS for tho Government
to impose customs duties, arc hot for
bill which sets one class of American citi-
zens against another and attempts to build
up one industry at the cost Of another and
to its ruin. Nj. BoATNER. Democratic
Representative from Louisiana, used no
exaggeration in declaring that this bill
would BIO 1.-The endorsement OF a more fla
grant violation OF the Constitution than had

"a Democratic Congress refused more than
fifteen minutes to discuss bill which was
more grossly unconstitutional than the
Force bill" But what did tho Democratic
House care for Democratic principle? Ger
tain fools and dcmagogues have been trying
TO persuade the farmers that trading in
futures is hurtful to them. Aud so this bait
for gudgeons must be held out.
Probably some and perhaps many of
the men who voted for the HATCH bill knew
that 1t was buncombe. and depend upon
the Senate to give it its Iuletus. We be-
lieve that the Senate will havc the good
sense to do this. but. even II it does. the wild
