The ten faithful populists did the
business. Goud Grand!
Now brethren, if any of you ale dis
posed, through the proceedings at To-
peka or from any other cause, to feel
faint hearted or weak in the faith, let
me remind you that while the eastern
states are standing comparatively still
in population, the West and South and
South West and North West are grow
ing very rapidly IN population and vot-
ing power. That is what makes our
eastern pldtocrats shaky at the knees.
Do you ever indulge one doubt of our
final triumph? How can you2
Why, already we have sent the repub-
lican party to the other side of the sty-
gian pool-where it belongs. Now,
here is what prominent New York
paper has to say about Mr.. Cleveland
From reports here it is gathered that Mr.
Clevelan ! is much concerned with the dangers
which lie ahead of him and especially those
which point to sympathetic action between the
populists and the greater number of demo-
Gratis in the next congress from the South and
far West. 1t is the fear of this element and
LIKELIHOOD that it cannot be carried into any
legislation hostile to silver which has made
Mr.. Cleveland SO anxious for the present con-
gress to remove that embarrassment. There
come indications that the little spark which
was kndled when the national democratic
committee not only invited the democracy in
half dozen far western states to abandon
their organization and sail unoer populist col
Cleveland has already discovered from his
correspondence and conversation that that is
the biggest cloud on the horizon of his polit-
zeal future and he has learned another thing
that these men stand in no fear of his iron
will or of his lofty courage. The impression ie
gaining ground here that Mr.. Cleveland, if he
cannot control will repudiate this apparently
not realizing now deep it reaches in the remote
western states, and that he will endeavor to
reorganize parties on different lines and per-
haps create new party made up of the con-
servative elements of the two older organiza-
tons.
The east is rapidly losing its voting
power, 1t knows it, and its only hope
now is in the corrupt use of it's i'm
mense wealth. Our fight, even now, is
fairly and squarely with this corrupt
lag agency.
In congress we have to fight it. Ey-
erywhere we have to fight it. Well be
it so. The love of money is the root
of all evil" We love to fight evil.
God, give us grace and comfort and
courage! The victory will speedily
come.

Brethren, do you know why the South
belled in 1861? 1t was because they
were standing comparatively still in

North and West were gaining rapidly

they must strike soon for independence
or it would forever be too late.

NOT ROOM FOR TWO.

The Sacramento News has sus-
pended publication.
While the APPEAL regrets to see
so good newspaper go to the wall,
1T cannot help thinking that there Is
lesson in it's death, which ought at
least to teach men, anxious to en-
bark in the newspaper business, that
it is next to impossible to found a
paper where the field is already
filed.
The News was started by the
Labor Unions because they fancied
they had a grievance against the
Bee.
An incompetent stereotyper was
discharged from the Bee, and he
claimed that he was deposed to make
room for non-union man.
Then the Labor Unions took the
matter up and there was great hue
and cry.
Then the boycotte was brought
into play and all the rascals that the
Bee had dashed, and held up to pub
lie contempt, fell into line. When
the fight was hottest it was discov-
cred that the original cause Of the
trouble had no foundation in fact.
The employee who supp(anted the
incompetent stereotyper turned out
toabe Union man.
This made no difference, for that
was not the real object of the fight,
only the excuse for it.
Under the cloak of battling for
organized labor, the criminal ele-
msnt and the pot house politicians,
who could not collar the Bee, ranged
themselves in line to make the News
go.
There was excellent talent on the
paper; Drury, Sheehan, Harris,
Marshall, and men who were leading
writers and experienced newspaper
men.
But they could not make the
paper stick because the Bee, which
had been 81 years in building upon
its business, had filled the field and
could not be crowded out.
No newspaper ever succeeded in
making a place for itself that was
founded on spite instead of a demand
for the paper.
When it comes to proposition OF
downing a newspaper because it tells
the truth, the experiment will al
ways fail, no matter how much
money or brains is thrown into the
breech.
The public cannot be deceived In
the matter. and the truth telling,
unmuzzled paper that has established
itself by fair dealing with the public
will survive.
The only regret is that men of
such excellent abilities should throw
away their time III such vain en-
deavors. There is no room for two
evening papers in Sacramento.

A SENSIBLE WOMAN.

While lot of female freaks are
trying to pose as prudes in relation
to the Oriental dancing in Chicago,
Kate Field with her lnvarlable
clear perception, her clean mind and
vigorous common sense, takes the
follow ing view of the Oriental dance.
The mid-Orient confines dancing
to abdominal gyration, marvellous as
gymnastics and absolutely impossible
to women who have ever worn corsets
Such development and control OF alb
domlnal muscles as are exhibited by
the dancing girls in Chicago-Cairo
would, if possessed by American
women, would be the salvation OF
the race,
Vulgar men and women who have
set up howl against this perform
ance would do well to look around
the American ballroom and dinner
table and discover like food for purl-
ent fancy. | am quite sick OF Com
stockian morality.
And so is every healthy minded
man and woman in America.
There is something clean, sweet
and wholesome about Kate Field
that wins the admiration of everyone
who reads what she writes, and a
personal acquaintance with her only
adds to the good impression.
Her rebuke to a lot of purient
minded people who are trying to
cover their tricks by assuming to be
shocked at something is delicious
reading.
1t Is a pity that the women who
are making such fuss over the
dancing cannot see it as Miss Field
does.
They probably could if they had
but led her pune life and enjoyed the
possession of her good brain.
