Resolved, That we, the members Of
Prairie Springs Alliance, condemn the
action of the officers of the Kansas Exchange
for transferring the control Of the State Ex-
change to the National Union company.
Whereas, We believe the National Union
company to be one of the greatest mo-

extending TO all parts of the country, seeking
the control Of the liberties of the American
people, therefore be it
Resolved, That we demand of the officers
Of the Kansas State Exchange to show how
they are vested with the power to transfer
the peoples interests without the consent
or knowledge of the trustee stockholders.
Resolved, That we believe the National
Union company is trust or combination
formed for the sole purpose of destroying
cooperation and TO get control Of the State
Exchanges. Realizing that industrial and
commercial prosperity are indissolubly
linked together by the wants Of soolety and
that monopoly of trade is alike damaging
to agriculture, therefore be il
Resolved, That we condemn the National
Union company in the most unqualified
terms as beng gigantic monopoly ex-
tending to all parts Of this country and pre-
judicial to the best interests of all classes of
people.

taken by The ADVOCATE and other reform

To the Editor Of THR ADVOCATE.
That the Republican leaders are watch
Ing the movements of the Peoples party
with great deal Of interest just now
goes without question. Their only hope
Of carrying this state lies in the blunders
of the Peoples party. A prominent Re-
publican candidate for state Office said
to me yesterday: "My chance for nomi-
nation depends upon whom you, the
Peoples party, nominate for governor.
II Ives Is nominated am sure of my
own nomination" "Why?" I asked him.
because II you nominate Ives, we, the
Republicans, will turn down HOvey,
Slower, and the rest Of that gang OF rail-
road assessors, and then will have club

complete account of the sad affair,
which we quote below. The bereaved
family will receive the sympathy Of a
multitude of the American people to
whom Mr.. Willitts has become known
in the past two years, as well as Of
his immediate neighbors and friends.
The following is the report of the
Kansas City Times:
MoLoUTH, Kan, June TO- Miss Mary Wilitts,
daughter Of Hon. John +. Willltts, committed
suicide this morning by drowning herself In a
stock pond at the home farm near this city. She
was suffering from temporary insanity.
$3.50 this morning her brother, Lee Willltts,
rode hurriedly into this city to notify married
sister, Mrs. Ed. Nevin, that Mary was missing,
and could not be found. A large number Of cit-
zens at once started out to assist In the search,
but when they arrived at the farm they met many
Of the nelghbOrs, who had turned out to assist
In the hunt, and were informed that the body OF
the unfortunate young lady had been found in
the stock pond about 200 yards from the house.
Last October Miss WillittS had'a severe attack
Of the grippe from which she had never recov-
cred. She had been In declining health ever
since. This caused dependency and occasional
spells Of insanity. Yesterday she was noticed to
be more restless than usual, and wanted to wan.
der about. Some member Of the family was con-
tinually with her In her rambles to see that she
cid not attempt to take her own life, as this was
suspected to be her purpose. She went to bed
with one Of her sisters last night at the usual
hour and 1t was supposed she would be no
further trouble for the night.
About / O'Clock this morning Mrs. Wlllitts
heard some one go out Of doors, but supposed it
to be one of the boys. After waiting several
minutes and hearing no one come back into the
house she arose, went to the boys room and
found them both in bed. She then went to the
girls room, where she found that Mary was abb
sent She at once aroused all the children and
made search for her daughter, but she was no.
where to be found.
The neighbOrhoOd was alarmed, and many
united In the search. After daylight ]. w. Rice,
a neighOor, found the girl's shoes on the bank
of the pond near spring board from which the
boys were wont to dive when swimming, and
her tracks were plain 10 the end of the board.
The water at this part of the pond was eight feet
deep. About two feet Of water was at once let
out by means of the sluce, when Elijah Fowler
waded 10, found and brought out the body.
The coroner, DIR. J. w. Balsley, OF OskalOoss,
was notified. He impaneled jury, which re-
turned verdict In accordance with the facts.
Miss Willitts was about 26 years Of age, had
been successful school teacher for number Of
years, and was highly respected In the COM
munity. 1t is expected that the funeral will take
place Sunday.
Her father, Hon. j. F. Willltts, is at Bloom
field, Ia, to-day, where he is to lecture to the
Alliance He has been telegraphed for and is
expected home tomorrow night.

ENDORSEMENT FROM AN UNEXPECTED

One Of the cardinal doctrines of the
Peoples party is indorsed by the Ma
tional Tribune, of June 9th, the great
organ of the Grand Army in the
United States, as follows:

with each other The government Is the only
power that can secure this for them. It should
have charge Of the railroads, either by general
supervisory control or actual ownership

The only news of the Oregon cleo
tion that Jay Gould's telegraph lines
have been able to furnish thus far is
that the state has gone Republican
by small plurality. No figures can
be obtained of the vote cast by the
different parties, or how many con-
gressmen or members of the legisla-
ture each has elected. 1t is a repeti-
tion of the experience relative to the
Kentucky election of last year when
we had to wait for the publication, in
the local papers of the state, of the
official returns before we knew any
thing about the large vote cast for
the Peoples party. Telegraphy, un-
der the Gould management, is a
great institution.

KANSAS PROPERTY AS sECURITY,

According to the census bulletin on assessed
valuation Of property, there was an increase in
the valuation OF Kansas from 1880 to 1890 Of
slS7, ,66S255. AS the total valuation Of the state
in 1880 was but Sl6O, ,S9l ,6S9 II will be seen that
the increase was more than 100 per cent The
Increase was In fact 1l6 per cent, while the In
crease Of population was but a little over AZ per
cent This makes maonlncent showing for
Kansas Documents OF this kind will have a
very Salutary effect In assuring capitalists Of the
security Of investments In Kansas. Property
that is increasing in value at the rate Of llM
per cent. a year Is good enough security even
for Wall street gold bug. LedUenlCOrth times.

THE REPORT OF THE MONETARY CON.
MISSION,

MlSSIONs
BY a joint resolution of August Is,
1876, monetary commission was
created by congress, consisting Of
three senators, three members Of the
house of representatives and three
experts to be selected blythe six mem
bers designated by the two houses,
who were instructed to make investi-
cation concerning certain features Of
our monetary system and the effect
upon the labor, industries and wealth
Of the country. That commission
submitted it's report In due time; and
it was ordered printed March 2, 1877.
The exceeding great value Of this re-
port has caused it to be eagerly
sought for by the people, but for
some reason best known by those who
have the custody of public documents,
it has been very difficult to obtain, and
very few of the American people have
ever seen it, or know anything about it.
As this is to be campaign Of edu-
cation, we do not believe We can do
our readers a greater service than to
publish this report in full. It will
furnish our people with facts and
arguments for the campaign that
they can get from no other source.
It is just what is needed to meet the
sophistries Of the political shysters,
who will be on the stump for the Re-
publican party this year. Every
subscriber should preserve every
number Of The ADVOCATE containing
this report. Of course most sub
scribers preserve them all; but these
will be found especially useful.
We shall print a limited supply Of
extras Of the first numbers in order
to furnish them to new subscribers,

enough to supply all new subscribers

subscribe early will get this report in
