1t is certain that the Columbian
naval review at New York in May will
be the most magnificent ever witnessed
in this country. At least 25 foreign
warships will take part If the Prince
OF Wales comes over, the entire chan
mel squadron of the British navy will
attend him. Let us hope he will come.
He has not been here since he was a
mere STRIPPING. Perhaps he will like
to take look around and see what
advantages republic would offer as a
place of residence when the bottom
drops out of the divine right of kings
in Europe. If France servives the
Panama scandal, our sorely tried sis
ter republic will send to our review
nine of the most improved models of
ironclads and fast cruisers. There will
be besides five of Italy's crack fight
ing ships, seven from Russia, six from
Germany and four each from Spain
and Austria.

Practical Notes.


A number of social problems are
solved as follows for inquiring cores
pondents by Harper's Bazaar:
Your name remains the same as
during your husbands life
Your acknowledgement call for a
wedding reception is due the mother
of the bride. You will not call upon
the bride unless you receive a card
with her new address upon it.
1t is great rudeness not to acknowl-
edge wedding gift, and the acknowl-
edgement should be as immediate as
possible.
A lady remains seated when a man
is presented to her.
There is great latitude in the mat
ter of sending tea cards. You may ask
people you would n ask to a dinner
or small affair.
An "at home card" is simply call
ing card bearing the address and the
day upon which one is at home.
Let your regret be written note in
the third person on paper of medium
size bearing your address at the top
and the date at the close.
Letters of congratulation should Ger
tainly be answered.
A bride should return her calls as
soon as possible certainly within a
month.
IN paying a call upon a guest always
recognize the hostess by card.
You should say Good evening" to
your hostess, no matter how crowded
the affair,
For the afternoon tea the card counts
the same as ones presence.
The groom's family should call upon
the brides first.
A return dinner invitation does not
take the place of dinner call.
Fin de steele literally translated is
the end of the century, but is used to
mean up to date, abreast of the times.
A letter to youth of sixteen should
be addressed to "Mr. Charles Brown. "
Birth cards are frequently sent out.
Use tiny card bearing the name of
the new conner, with the date of its
arrival beneath. Inclose with it your
Mr.. and Mrs. card.
my dear Mr.. Smith" is the more
formal.
To be absolutely correct your mother
should ask the man to call. In this
country it is not the custom for men
to ask permission to call.
Send the wedding present to the
bride, even though acquaintance il
only with the groom. You send it to
his intended bride as compliment to
him

La Crime,

During the prevalence of the grippe
the past seasons it was noticeable
that those who depended upon DR..
Kings New Discovery, not only had a
speedy recovery, but escaped all of the
troublesome after effects of the mall
ady. This remedy seems to have a
peculiar power in effecting rapid cures
not only in case of la grippe, but in all
diseases of throat, chest and lungs,
and has cured cases of asthma and hay
fever of long standing. Try it and be
convinced. 1t won't disappoint free

ply he said: "This financial question, l
fear, will disrupt the republican party,
because fully nine.tenths Of the western
republicans favor free coinage Of both
silver and gold, while our eastern brsth-
rem favor the single gold standard, and
when we consider the undenisble fact
that during thirty years Of republican
ascendsncy the financial and other legis-
tion has enabled less than 10000 men to
concentrate more than one-half Of the
wealth Of the country into Lheir own
hands, while IS per cent. OF our people
are growing poorer day by day, can
not see much hope Of our party return
ing to power"
He expresses the true sentiments of
large numbers of both republicans and
democrats, and, In my opinion, if the
Peoples party leaders will confine their
main efforts and attention to the fuau-
clsl question, success, full aud complete,
is certain. s. A. HACKwoRTH.

The Railroad Issue.
II anyone asks you why the railroad bill
failed-thst bill of which six sevenths was
a verbatim copy Of the Iowa lsw--tell him,
and you'll tell him truthfully, that it failed
because on the last day Of the session the
Populist senate sent US word by their COM
mittee, that they would not agree to the
provisions for eleoting railroad commits
sioners by the people, and that unless we
abandon that part of the bill, they would re-
fuse to pass it. But republicans having
solemnly pledged themselves to this pro-
vision, would not consent to surrender it or
go back ON their pledges to the people,
Gao. L. Douglass speech Garfield hall,
Wichita.
EDITOR ADVOCATED have before me
printed copy Of house bill No. 1l9,
more commonly known as the Greenlee
bill. There is not one line or clause in
it providing for the election OF railroad
commissioners by the people; and it is 8
fact easily established, by reference to
the house journals, that it never had any
such clause until the two houses came
together, and the railroad committee Of
the Dunsmore house was added to the
like committee Of the republican house,
and with the assistance of these eight
Populists the bill was reported back to
the house, and then Mr.. Greenlee offered
an amendment to it, providing for the
election f commissioners by the people,
in November, 1893 1t did not provide
for the dividing Of the state into three
districts, and it did provide for the re-
tention Of the old board till January,
1894. 1t passed the house by the Popu-
liot vote. Vote: Republicans, 43; Popu-
lists, 46. The Dunsmore bill provided
for the election of railroad commission
ers by the people, dividing the state into
three districts, and for one commissioner
to be elected from each; one to serve one
year, one two years, the other three
years; one commissioner to be elected
each year. He also made maximum
rates and had q schedule Of classiHca-
tions. 1t had these provisions when it
was first presented to the Dunsmore
house. 1t had these sections unchanged
when it passed the senate. The Popu-
lists saved the Greenlee bill from snnihi-
lstion in the house before it was referred
to the senate. There were not twenty
republicans in the house who really
wanted railroad legislation. The Green
lee bill provided that rates should be
made by the commissioners, and it omit
ted section POPS OF the Iowa law entirely.
This would have made the bill worthless.
Anyone desiring to know the truth Is
hereby referred to the bills ss drafted
and as amended, as shown by the senate
and house journals. For republican tes-
timony, note the following: 81. G. Tay-
lor, q prominent republican Of Rice
county, said, over his own signature,
April II, 1893, in the Lyons Republican:
II is my opinion that the Grssnlee bill

60 cause the railroads TO fght them. The
maximum bill (the Populist billy, being a
copy OF the Iowa law, except that the rates
made were somewhat higher, was Oonstitu-
tional and had already stood the test Of the
courts. The Greenlee bill left IL TO three
commissioners, 10 be elected by the people,
TO make rates.
In the Lyons republican Of May 2 you
will find further testimony from Mr.. H.
@, Taylor.
The Topeka Journal (rspublicsn) Feb
ruary % 1893, says:
A railroad bill which makes a reduction
Of from 25 to 33 per cent. in the present
freight rates was recommended for passage
in the Populist house this morning.
The Topeka Capital of February 93,
1893, says:
The Dunsmore house put in che morning
session in consideration Of the committees
maximum freight bill, and IL was recon-
mended for passage. It corresponds with
the Iowa rates and makes a reduction Of
from 10 to 30 per cent. IL further provides
for the election of three commissioners.
The State Journal, March 2, 1893, says:
The senate this morning passed the Pop
ulist freight bill. IL provides that the rsll-
road commissioners shall be elected by the
people, and not appointed by the governor,
as is at present.
Turn to page SO7, senate journal, and
you will find report signed by Senator
Morgan, Of Chase county, stRunCh re-
publican. II states:
The majority of the committee on the part
OF the senate believe that house bill No. 1l9
(the Grsenlee billy would be wholly unoOn-
stitutionsl if it became law, and said COM
mittee also believes that said house bill
would only be of benefit 60 few interior
towns of our state, and that IL would be Of
very doubtful benefit to even them and of
no benefit to the rest of the people Of the
state.
Chas. FERN, Of Lindsborg, Kas who
gave the Greenlee bill close study, said:
The Greenlee bill cares nothing for GEN.
trail Kansas or western Kansas. II
would be null and void.
How does the foregoing republican
testimony correspond with what Doug
lass ssysH Is Douglass rightY And are
all these people and these records
wrong? No one can think the latter
wrong if they desire to know the truth.
In 1891 the republican senate killed
we'll. prepared maximum freight bill
which had been passed by vote Of ell
the Populists in the house fsvoring it, it
being q Populist measure. In their
platform in 1890 the republican party Of
Kansas had clause favoring the rsduc
tion OF passenger fares in this state to 2115
cents per mile; also clause fsvoripg the
prohibition Of the issue Of passes. These
pledges were forgotten after the elec
ton.
The POpulists are interested in and
have sincerely lsbored for equitable
remedial railway legislation. R'publi-
can efforts have been a hyPocriticsl
fraud. No POpulist need fear to meet q

Progress in Texas.

ana relatives IN many sections or IeXas
who inform ma that thousands Of demo-
Gratis are deserting that party and de-
claring their intention to hereafter vote
and act with the Peoples party. At q
meeting OF 600 leading farmers in Will
Hanson county, Texas, to discuss the
free coinage Of silver, all Of whom had
hitherto been life long democrats, vote
was had before adjournment as to
whether they should continue to be dem
ocrsts, which resulted in an unanimous
vote to 60 with the Peoples party.
Throughout all the southern states we
hear OF the same remarkable revolution
in progress against the democratic party.
Many of the old democratic leaders SEQ
the handwriting on the wall, aud are
trying to arrest this tide of public senti-
ment against their party by advocating
free coinage OK silver, but their efforts
will prove fruitless. Prior to organizs-
tion of the Peoples party, there was not
10 per cent. Of the voters Of the south
who had ever read anything outside OF
democratic newspapers or heard anyone
except democratic orators discuss politi-
cal affairs. Free speech was wholly un-
known in many sections of the south,
Anyone who dared to call into question
the soundness ofdemocrRtic doctri les was
usually ostrscised, and if he was active in
organizing opposition against democratic
rule he was in constant danger Of violence.
This was so we'll known no one was will
ling to undertake organic alton OF oppOsi-
ton until the Alliance had partly
prepared the people for political
change, and even then the magic name
OF democracy had to be adhered to in
many sections of the south, as is now the
case in South Carolina, where the Peo.
ple's party sail under democratic colors.
No wonder, then, that Secretary of Agri-
culture Morton in his recent speech at
Chicago 80 bitterly denounced the Alli-
snce, oranges, and Peoples party, and
deliberately inaulted every intelligent
farmer throughout the country. He
knows these organizations are educating
men, irrespective of past party afilia-
tions, to think and act for themselves,
and to hear all sides of political ques-
tions. This is fatal to democracy, and
Morton, Cleveland & Co. realize it. 1t
is q monstrous sin in the eyes of these
old politicians to see the farmers think
for themselves. Morton says the farmers
are being fsrmed for political purposes
by the Grange and Alliance organizs.
tions. He tells the farmers they are pay
ing too much attention to politics and
neglecting agriculture. AS long as he
and other leaders Of his party could tell
farmers how to think and act politically
and could rely upon their votes being
blindly cast for the democratic party, he
regarded them as obedient d0cile fell
lowe, not possessing much intelligence
to be sure, but good enough to be demo
cratic s+rvants or cstspsws to pull the
chestnuts out Of the fire for democratic
Office holders, and now that they refuse
to continue in political slavery, he is in
dignsnt and astounded. 1t is q happy
omen for the country when voters begin
to read and hear all sides OF political
questions, and to think and act for
themselves in political affairs. Fully so
