POOLING TIE PEOPLE.

POOLING TIE PEOPLE.
Every since the vote was taken in
the house OH tile Sherman repeal bill
and II free Coinage substitute the rep
publican bosses i'll Kansas have beer,
induslriOusly at work trying to preju-
dice the people against Mr.. Cleveland
by representing him as standing in
with Wall street to demOnetZie silver
and force this country to the single
gold standard.
The people of Kansas are in favor
of bimetalism and the politicians
know it. And they mean 10y bimetal-
ism the use of both gold and silver as II
party standard money. The republican
has always been the tool of the gold
bugs to destroy one half of the money
of this country and every attempt OF
the political bosses Of the republican
party to show to the contrary are but
attempts to fool the people.
The Topeka Capital is the organ of
the republicans in Kansas and no re-
publican Can secure Il nomination for
a state office without first having
secured the endorsement of the Topeka
Capital. Here is what the organ says
about the single standard.
Between thirty five and forty repub
lican county conventions have been
held in Kansas since the house voted
to for the repeal of the Sherman
law and not one has endorsed the
votes of the three republican cong
| ressn.en for free silver.
Ono convention only, SO far heard
from, speaks out in approval of a
republican vote for 80 per cent fiat;
namely, the populist convention of
Jackson county, which oongratulates
Hon. Case Broderick.
The republican congressman did
not represent their intelligent repub-
lican constituents. They made mis-
take. Kansas republicans have not
been thinking OH financial problems
and investigating principles of political
economy during the last Two or three
Years for nothing They have an
alyZed the money question pretty
Thoroughly and they St through the
clap trap of the Nevada and Colorado
scllemers. Kansas republicans do not
| believe in fat to the extent of 100 PEI
cent with the pops, nor of 10 per cen,
with the silver miners. They stand
for sound n4oney and plenty of it, fol
bimetalism that means the use OF
both metals, OIL II gold standard.
There is the whole of bimeLalism in a
nutshell so far as concerns the repub
lican party of the west. Its willing
to allow the coinage of silver so Ions
as the amount of silver going to make
the dollar is measured by the goIt
standard. What is the use of coming
\ silver dollar at all If it has no stand
ard of value in aud of itself? VIII,
not have Il paper dollar and be done
with it? The man who cannot Sc,
that the plan of the Topeka Capita
would make all our money rest on the
the narrow basis of gold might as vel
give up the study of all financial ques
tons rs something beyond his compre
pension. The republican party o.
Sedgwick county will either have te
desert its platform in regard to th,
use of gold, silver and paper money
.'backcd by the insignia of the fedora
government" or repudsate the repuh
lican party of Kansas.
The republican party of this countr,
has declared that it Is in favor of gold
silver and paper money ..hacked b,
the insignia of the federal government
but here is the Topeka Capital Saying
that the republican party of this state
bellows i'm gold dollar backed by the
ins gnla of the federal government,
but that silver and paper dollars must
be backed by the gold dollar
Do the republicans of Sedgwich
county intend to follow Colonel Hal.
lowell or do they intend t" follow jos
Hudson of the Topeka Capital. This
is y question that the republicans will
be compelled to answer before another
election. - Wschitu Beacon.
