Communicated.
Next to obtaining control Of the
offices and OF the taxing power, the chief
end Of the republican oligsrchy seems to
be- to induce foreigners and non-resi-
dents to invest their capital in Kansas
lands and corporations. To do this they
do not hesitate to lie and deceive ss to
the certain and large profits to be de-
rived, and they persecute and slsnder
anyone who refuses to join them in seek
ing to delude the unwary. With them,
the chief end of man is to sell real estate
at big advance over cost. The 'Stand
up for Kansas" cry of last campaign
really meant: "Help US to work conf.
dence game on the newcomer and on the
unwsry eastern capitalist; help US to lie
about our resources and financial condi-
tion so We can skin someone out Of some
money" The true secret Of the bitter
and malignant feeling Of hostility to the
Populists is that the peoples movement
has to some extent interfered with their
profitable confidence games.

make an authentic statement of the
great republican gains"
In 1892 Harrison received 516,011
votes. In the late election Mr.. Grow
received 4S5,693. This indicates a
republican loss of 3O,3l8. In 1892
Mr.. Cleveland received 452,O votes
In the late election the democratic
candidate for congressman at large
received 299, ,452 votes-a democratic
loss of 1882. The great repnbli-
can majority, therefore, was not the
result of a republican gam, but it was
because so many democrats stayed at
home. Adding the republicans who
stayed at home to the democrats we
find q total stsy-st-home vote of 1872
$40. Now suppose that these fellows
should happen to find out before next
election, "where they are at" how
much of majority would the repub-
licsn party have IN that case?
