Greeting.

In consequence Of arrangements
which have been completed 1 appear
before the INDEX readers and general
public this week as editor and manager
of the paper. 1t is unnecessary that l
should inflict the people with any ex-
tensive array of circumlocutory verb
iage, deal in optimistic platitudes or
erect gigantic air castles to be over
thrown by the first zephyr of adversely.
In taking charge of the INDEX l want
paper policy will be infused into its
columns, and that / will endeavOr to
promote the political principles which
/ believe to be right. | propose to
labor in giving the people of Barber
county representative paper, and the
people of Medicine Lodge a paper de-
voted to the local welfare of the city.
In this l ask the support of all; the
devote myself to their interests and the
business men that may assist them
in return to build up their interests.
This is time when anything else than
cooperation proves detriment to all.
In all enterprise you will find me will
ing to do nay part.
Politically expect, as said before,
to continue my policy. have respect
for honest opinions of others; but am
after the fellows who purpOsely are
playing horse with the peoples in
terests for selfish purposes. In my
work l expect and must have the
united support of the party represented
in this county by the INDEX. In that
case | can promise a good paper, that
will be worth dollar a year in ad-
vance.
To the business men l wish TO say
that their business is solicited and
am sure we can preserve those rela-
tIons that are calculated to he of mu-
tual benefit. &. G.. HUDSON.

gives twice who gives quickly is directly ap-
plicable- 1t may be true that the embarrass-
ments from which the country is suffering arise
as much from evils apprehended as from
those actually existing We may hope, too,
that calm counsels will prevail and that
neither the capitalists nor the wage earners
viii give way 70 unreasoning panic and sac
r1hee their property or their interests under
the influence Of exaggerated fears. Neverthe-
less, every days delay in removing one of the
plain and principal causes OF the present state
OF things enlarges the mischief already done
ana increased the responsibility of the govern
ment for its existence. Whatever else the
people have right to expect from congress,
they may certainly demand that legislation
condemned by the ordeal OF three ears dis
astrous experience shall be removed from the
statute books as soon as their representatives
can legitimately deal with it.
1t was my purpose to summon congress in
special session early In the coming September
that we might enter promptly upon the work of
tariff reform which the true interests of
the country clearly demand, which so large a
majority OF the people, as shown by their
SURFACES, desire and expect and to the accom-
plishment OF which every effort Of the present
administration is pledged But while tariff re-
form has lost nothing of Its immediate and per-
manent impor lance, and must in the near fu-
ture engage the attention OF congress. il has
seemed to me that the financial condi ton OF
the country should at once and before all other
subjects be considered by your honorable body
earnestly recommend the prompt repeal OF
the provisions OF the act passed July It. 1897
authorizing the purchase Of silver bullion, and
that other legislative action may put beyond all
doubt or mistake the intention and the ability
OF the government to fulnn its pecuniary obliga-
tions in money universally recognized by all
civilized countries GROVER CLEVELAND.

CARTER HARRISON, the democratic
MAYOR of Chicago, made great speech
in his city last week, after the presi-
dents message was,issued, and used the
following significant words: There are
200, 900 people in Chicago to-day unem-
ployed and almost destitute OF money
III congress does not give us money we
will have riots that will shake the
country" IL will be remembered that
Mayor Harrison made strong silver
speech in his address OF welcome TO
tue silver convention. Many OF the
best men of our country are coming
out in bold defense of the truth, fact
which is especially gratifying to those
who have deserted the old parties and
their infamous politicians. With Alt
geld and Carter Harrison Illinois is La
BILE to have brought down upon her the
wrath of Wall street traitors and
their hireling newspapers; but she Is
on the right side for victory at no far
distant day.

A Western Kick.

Wichita Beacon: Mr.. Cleveland was
elected president on democratic plat
form adopted at Chicago and which Mr..
Cleveland not only did not repudiate
but accepted, one plank of which plat
form was as follows:
Section Z. We denounce the repub.
lican legislation known as the Sher-
man act of 1890 as a cOWardly make
SHIFT, fraughL with possibilities of dan
ger In the future which should make
all OF its supporters as we'll as its auth
or, anxious for its speedy repeal. We
hold to the use of both gold and silver
az the standard money of the country,
and to the coinage of both gold and sill
yer without discrimination against eth
er metal or charge for minta1e, but the
dollar unit of coinage of both metals
must be OF intrinsic and exchangeab!e
value, or be adjusted by international
agreement or such safeguards of legis-
lation as shall insure the maintenance
of the parity of the two metals and the
equal power OF any dollar at all times
In the market and in the payment of
debts. And we demand that all paper
money be Kept at par with and redeem.
able in such coin. We insist upon this
policy as especially necessary for the
protection of the farmers and labOring
classes, the first and most detenseless
victims of unstable money and fluctu-
ating currency.
In view of this explicit declaration
the democratic party, a declaration
which the voters of the country adopt
ed at the last general election by the
selection of Mr.. Cleveland, it would
seem that the people had reasonable
expectation that 1T would be carried
out.
Mr.. Cleveland concludes his message
with the following recommendation:
l earnestly recommend the prompt
repeal of the act passed July IA, 1890,
authorizing the purchase Of silver bull
lion, and that other legislative action
may put beyond all doubt or mistake
the intention and ability of the govern
ment TO fulfil its pecunlary obligations
in money universally recognized by all
civilized countries.
This recommendation is not consist
ent with the declaration of the demo-
cratic national platform.
1t remains to be seen whether the
party through its accredited members
in the two houses of congress will car
ry out Mr.. Cleveland's recommended
tons or the declaration of the democrat
ic national platform.
