Republican papers are still harping
on the false assertion that the POpu-
lists are injuring the state by their
ISLANDERS of its condition. Truth is it
is the Republican papers who are do
ing this dirty work. Populists al
ways show how much better off Kan
Sas is than other states, but hold up
the condition of all the states as a
sad example of the spOliation of the
people of the nation. Republican
census figures speak in thunder tones
on this point, but you do not see
many Republican papers quoting
them. They prefer to turn every
thing to the account of Kansas, and
shout stop thief" at honest patriots
who have the independence and in
telligence to lift their voices and
votes against a national system that
is robbing the whole people, both in
and out of Kansas. Then to add in
suit to injury they SANDER the state
and its Woodworking, honest citizens
by calling them anarchists and luna
tics and every other humiliating title
they can use. The farmers of Kan
sas would almost be justified in prac-
ticing little real anarchy" on some
Of these fellows.

In the early days he was a successful

years he has lived on a farm Just

of such an experienced, practical me-

The POpuiistS admit that they
have got to defeat and overcome the
Democratic party before getting IN a
position where they can have a voice
in the government or carry out any
OF their proposed reforms. The way
they are going about it in this county
is to elect a Democratic Judge and

all Grover Cleveland ever did or ever
will do-and then call the perform

Monitor.
We do not know just what our peo-
pie will do on this point until they
come together in convention. They
may take pattern from the Republi-
cans Of Virginia and combine to de-
feat the dominant party, and they
may not. They may think it just as
essential to defeat the Republican
party in this state as the Republi-
cans Of Virginia do to defeat the
Democrats in that state. And to tell
the truth we must beat both old par.
ties before we attain the good of the
people. But 1t is question whether
we would gain by giving the Republi-
cans chance Of dividing the offices
with the Democrats and shutting Pop
ulists out entirely, Ian end which the
Republicans are no doubt devoutly
wishing for, or whether we had best
take some Of the offices and support
someDemocrat whose ideas of political
economy are similar to ours for offices
for which we have no available candi-
dates, and thereby shut the Republic
cans out entirely. We do not wonder
the Republicans are interested in the
outcome. For the Monitor to talk
about standing up for principle" is
silly. 1t has not the remotest idea of
what principle" is. Two years ago it
conceded the Republicans voted for
John I. Stewart for commissioner for
what was considered at the time an
entirely satisfactory equivalent. "
Do you deny it, neighbor? Whether
fusion is a bad thing or not we are
not saying, but if it is wicked, you
fellows are on the road to the devil
as fast as time can take you. For
there has never been time since the
Populist uprising when your chances
OF carrying point were in danger
that your people did not show an I'M
mistakable desire to combine with
the Democrats to defeat us. How
was it in the election of a United
states senator atT0pkea last winter:
Republican politicians, way up in the
councils Of the party, running around
offering as high as 5000 for votes fol
a "stalwartn Democrat. How was
that for making merchandise Of poll
ties? Only because of the narrow
difference between the principles OF
John Martin and the Populist plat
form were we able to keep you from
sending a stalwart gOldbug to repre-
sent US in the senate. Talk about
consistency. Shades Of John 7. Stew.

Speaking of the Sherman bill tn

Speaking of the Sherman bill the
Monitor says:
"In passing it at that critical juno
ture the Republican party did for the
country an inestimable service, whose
value, as deliverance from the dis
aSter of free coinage, the people are
just beinning to realize"
Compare this with the sentiment
expressed in the editorials quoted
from the Monitor in this issue, dating
back to 1890, when the Republican
party was apOlogizing to the people
for not being able to pass free coin
age bill. And then imagine its consist
ency. The Monitor is now congratu-
lating the party on its deliverance of
the people from disaster which its
party enthusiastically pleaded for in
its state platform only three short
years ago and which platform the
Monitor said was clear exposition of
Republican principles. Talk about
demagOgues and hypOcrites and peo-
pie who have rings in their noses!
And such is craftsmanship and patri-
otism!

The Monitor is informed that the
VOICE is not the least bit worked up
over the organization of farm hands
that is being mentioned by the
plutocratic Republican papers in the
state. We have not the least obiec-
tion to it. What we denied was that
the Farmers Alliance had held a
meeting in Harper county to put
down the wages of farm hands. We
quoted the Harper Advocate which
pronounced it fake and dared you
to correct it, and we take notice that
you did not have honor enough about
your shop to do it. The organiza-
tion Of the farm hands is an entirely
different matter, which we did not
mention at all. Such bubbles as
this when the people are confronted
with such great issues are only a por-
trayal of your shallowness. Farm
hands may not be rated very high in
intelligence by you, but they have
too much sense to be caught by such
suckers as the average Republican
editor in Kansas, or the slick dude
who wants his vote for county Of.

reports of the Indian troubles in the
old Dakota territory. B%rigadier Gen
eral Sully sent in the report of the
battle of Kildeer mountain from his

position held by the Indians, made
General Suliy's victory memorable.
