THE wANE OF PoPuLrsM.

One OF the strongest evidences of the
decadence of the populist party is their
liability to maintain and support their
principles before the people. There has
been scarcely a speaker that we have
heard on the platform this fall that had
the hardihood TO stand upon the popu.
list platform and advocate its measures,
save the irresponsible j. w. Harden,
and he leaned so strongly to his old
faith, democracy, that his speech was
all through tinctured with free trade
doctrines. Senator Kyle, even, who
yves his exaltation to populism and who
will owe his fall to democracy, according
to reliable accounts Of his addresses,
does not touch upon populist doctrines
IN this campaign. He tells his populist
friends by his own attitude and example
that the Omaha and state platforms are
not worth noticing and that tariff is the
only issue before the people of import
ance, ard that his people ought to study
this question. Bnt these are instances
of how populism is losing its hold upon
its deluded followers and accounts for
the large number returning to the re-
publican fold. Another evidence is the
general tendency to fusion between
democrats and populists of which our
W county is a notable instance. After
mature investigation o democratic com
mittee can say Of the populist candidates
for the legislature in this county that s.
They are sound and in line with the
democracy on the principal points OF the
democratic platform and ~unalterably
opposed to republicanism."
This committee finds
That populist senator's at Washing
ton have been to all intents and pur-
poses democratic in principle"
1t Is such discoveries rs these that is
d%isrupting the populst party and show
ing up the bones in the closet. The
people Of this country do not want dem
ocratic rule. They have had enough OF
1t in the past two years. They do not
want it under the guise of populism, for
that is more cowardly in its methods
than democracy. No. The backbone OF
populIsm is completely broken; it is a
delusion and a snare, and now its van
pushed schemers would try to float q
little longer by selling themselves out to
democracy. 1t is a cheap sale, but the
price is more than they are worth.

growing exactions Ofgthe money lenders,
Mr.. Powers finds the contrary to be true,
The census statistics show a great rela-
tive decrease of the amount OF farm
mortgage indebtedness from 1880 to 1890.
That is to say, while the amount Of mort
Cages increased 40 per cent in the ten
years, the values Of the farms increased
during the same period roper cent. or
course these are average results for all
the sixty-five agricultural counties of the
state. The showing is much better than
this for all the older counties. 1t is only
in the newer counties, where bad
methods of farming have prevailed and
wheat has been about the sole product,
that the mortgage Indebtedness has not
shown a great decrease. In the old
counties, where mixed farming prevails,
the farmers are pretty generally out Of
debt or are getting out Of il very rapidly.
But in the newest counties, where bad
farming has impoverished the farmers,
the mortgage debt is more than three
times as great as in the group of oldest
counties. The counties where bad farm-
ing prevails, with its impoverishing con-
sequences, are the natural habitat OF
populism. In the counties where the
system of farming is diversified and the
farmers are consequently we'll off, there
are no populists 10 speak of, or il you do
find any they are shiftless fellows who
spend their time at the village grocery
and do their farming with their mouths.

The freight from Dundee to New York

outlook for this seasons business is un-
certain. The Scotch acreage 10 smaller
than last year, less of the export brands
have been planted, and the crop has suf-
fered from frost and rain, all pointing to
higher prices. On the other hand the

our new tariff act from 25 cents TO rs
cents per bushel and the expected rise

Iroquois dispatch, IL: Wednesday
evening at Oldham and Thursday even

two years ago a populist member OF the
legislature from Hand county, discussed
the issues OF the hour from a republican
standpoint and poured hot shot into the
party he has recently forsaken. He
gives some very keen and logical rea
sons why he could no longer affiliate
with the pops and why the people VIII
have to look to the republican party for
whatever reforms may be necessary.

The four grades of society among the
Hindoos are the Brahmans, or sacerdotal

of Brahma; the Kshatrya. or Chuttsee,

of Brahma; the Vaisya, or Bats, On
mercantile class, from the thigh Cd

The business Of the Sudras is to serve
the three superior classes, more espe.

COINAGE THE MAIN ISSUE.
Ohio Democrats Put Forth an Address
on Political Points.

on 6O1lLlCbl
Columbus, Oct. 3.-There was issued
from the democratic state executive COM
mittee headquarters an address to the
voters of Ohio, in which il Is declared
that the restoration of silver to free coin
age is the supreme issue before the peo-
pie, In the national contest two years
ago, " the address states, the fight was
made by the democracy for tariff reform
and silver restoration. The former was
the overshadowing issue then, but The
Mckinley tariff lazy being now repealed
the silver coinage question has become
paramount. The address is voluminous
and in twcnty-One divisions argues in
favor Of the abandonment of the single
gold standard, and the return OF the free
coinage OF silver. In the closing para
graphs the address declares that if the
present monetary conditions continue,
there will be little relief to the country
from its present industrial and CONNER
cial depression, whether we have a high
tariff or low tariff. IL appeals to all
voters to unite in casting their ballots so
that no matter which party secures the
ascendancy in the next congress. congress
win be compelled to abandon the cur
rency contracting policy of the last
twenty years, and give the country free
silver. The address is signed by Allen
W. Thurman and William A. Taylor,
chairman and secretary, respectively, of
the state executive cOmmitte.

Manager Ward this afternoon Challeug-

divide among themselves equally. Up to
midnight no reply had been received.
Manager Ward has engaged rooms
for the entire club at the
Eagle House and wired that
they would arrive early in the
morning. The Baltimore players had a
conference tonight and decided that if
they must they will play according to the
terms of the Temple cup committee. Their

hitting, but the terms of the division of
the proceeds will probably not be deter
mined upon until Messrs. Hanlon and
Ward meet tomorrow.
WILL PLAY UNDER COMMITTEE RULES.
Washington, Oct. 23.-The Baltimore
and New York base bull clubs will play
for the Temple cup according to the rules
and regulations prepared by the commit
tee appointed by the league last spring,
or they will not play at all. Such was
the decision of Secretary Nick Young of
the league this morning after receiving a
letter from the other member of the COM
mittee G. H. Byrne.
Mr.. Young decided that as the national
league had given him and Mr.. Byrne full
authority to provide the relations govern
ing contest for the Temple cup, that
the regulations made must stand, and
that the agreement made by Capts
Hanlon and Ward to divide the receipts
equally was in conflict with these regula-
tions, and any games played under the
agreement would be simply exhibition
games and not for the cup MIR.
Young thinks. however, the decision OF
the committee will not interfere with the
series of games which were scheduled TO
begin tomorrow. He said the captains
of the teams will simply be forced to
agree to the Is and 35 percentage arrange
ments. Mr.. Young has received many
letters and kilograms from lovers of base
