PIP. HEREsIEs.

The third party, misnamed peo-
pies party, as we have often said,
S full of heresies. Its platform is
made up partially Of heresies,
and its leaders, speakers, writers
and Office holders, are saturated
With heresies. Below we extract a
few of these heresies for the public
consideration, and ask the Popu-
lists if they car defend them:
p. P. Representatives in Congress
are introducing all sorts of bills for
extravagaHtappropriation of special
classes. Senator PETER now has a
dill before the Senate asking an APP
preparation of sixty-fve million dol
ars for the paupers of the United
States, which according to stats
Tics, would be $1,000 each for every
pauper in the land. If such legis-
alton could be secured what an in
1uCement it would be to pauperism
If such men as PETER had control OF
this government they would bank
rupt it in twenty-four hours. Not
many months ago this man intro
duced a bill to loan the farmers of
Indiana one hundred million dollars,
and he, with his colleague,
Senator Allen, of Nebraska, opposes
the passage of the Wilson tariff bill
because it takes the protective tar
if off the sugar beet industry of
Kansas. In the house of Congress
not many months ago out of ten
third party members seven voted to
increase the pensions of the federal
soldiers one hundred and ten mill
on dollars, and just the other day
Congressman Davis, a populist Of
Kansas, introduced bill in Con
gress asking an appropriation of
fifty million dollars for Coxey's army
of tramps, yet these are the fell
lows who claim to be opposed to all
class legislation, and to extrava-
gance in government. They are
the fellows who holler themselves
hoarse about the tax-burdened
people, and yet they seek to fasten
upon them greater burdens by Civ
ing to certain classes and interests
hundreds of millions of dollars
Such shameful mockery of true
economy and reform should be
frowned down by every man who
loves honesty and consistency in all
luen.
