III. G. SOLOMON, who has been nOmi-
mated by the Populists in the First con-
gressionaI district against Broderick, is a
recent convert to Populism. In his
speech in response to nomination he said
in substance:
1t was the first Populist convention he
had had the honor to attend He had
been content with his adored Democratic
party until two years ago, when he be-
came convinced it was traitOrOus to its
promises. He would not follow a party
led by a man who deceived the people
and deprived them of their rights-a
party led by Cleveland, who had stulti-
fed every good statement he had ever
made. $50 back to your people and
say that l refuse to be led by such man.
I am not a recent convert For two
years l have studied the Omaha plat
form and understand it fully. Am not
so well posted perhaps as Populists, as
they are the best posted class of people
in the United States This is not hattery
but fact l believe in governmental con-
troll of railroads, income tax, low tariff if
any" Here he was asked his position
on the national bank system, and replied
that he was bitterly opposed to it 1t

TOMORROW'S CONTEST.

The Line Plainly Drawn on State Printer
ship.
Major Hudson, the editor OF our con-
temporary, is regarded over the state as
q very strong candidate for the Office Of
state printer The facts seem to make
him the ''logicap', party, candidate il the
Republicans win in the representative
contests over the state to the extent of
controlling a majority on joint ballot in
the house and senate.
It is perfectly natural that Major
Hudson should desire to carry his own
city's representative district, and not be
compelled to go before the state
with the apology, that owing to local
complications, or to some other reason,
embarrassing in any event, his own rep
resentative is against him.
As stated in these columns some time
since, that is the issue-made SO by both
candidates for state printer. Major Hud-
urges his supporters to vote for
WEIGH, and Crane urges his friends to
vote for Veale.
Under these circumstances as before
stated, the JOURNAL, although q rival
newspaper, has preferred between a
broad and narrow position, to take the
broad one and support Mr.. WEIGH and
Major Hudson. MIR. WEIGH has qualifica-
tiOns which would make him
objection urged against him is that he is
aggressive; but we need aggressive rep
resentative men in the legislature.
Observe how the country is suffering
today from one end to the other because
aggressive, progressive and brave men
are not in control in congress. with in
telligence to understand the country's
needs and courage to act. The whole
country wants action of some kind.
The Capital, with its great personal
interest in the fight, while admitting the
equal fitness and ability of Col Veale,
thus frankly this morning states the
local situation as follows:
"Ths people of Shawnee county and
the city of Topeka are unquestionably
by a large majority in favor of ]. K.
Hudson for state printer Every candi-
date who has Announced himself for rep
resentative has in recognition of this sem
timent been for him. Col Veale, how
ever, acknowledging the eXistance of
this sentiment has refused to permit such
a statement to be made public. which
led to the candidacy of Mr WEIGH The
editor of the Capital who, while regretting
that this issue should be made SO promi-
nent in the selection of a candidate for
preventative, has believed that his
twenty years. service for his party in
this city entities him to an outspoken in
dorsement of his candidacy for state
printer A great many friends of Major
Hudson are intending to vote for Colonel
Veale because he has heretofore ex-
pressed himself as Intending to vote for
him for state printer, but in view of the
present contest and the change of senti-
ment in Colonel VeaIe, the editor of the
Capital asks his friends to vote for Mr..
r. B. WEIGH"

The Representative Contest Now Be-

E. d. McKeever, who had developed a
large following as a candidate for repre-
sentative. has withdrawn, putting his rea-
sons in the following card:
'As the state printer fight places large
number of my friends in an embarrass-
ing position az long as l am in the field,
l desire to announce the withdrawal of
my candidacy.
"While l am confident that / should
have been, at least, not less than second
in the race, L have deemed it proper for
the above reason, and in the interest of
harmony to abandon the field
''In the withdrawal of my candidacy,
am none the less earnest in my support
of Major Hudson for state printer"

LEAvENwoRTH Times: While the Re-
publican state convention showed lack of
courage both in its. platform and in its
nominations the Populists are showing
courage throughout They elected Duns-
more, speaker of their bogus house of
representatives, to preside over the con-
vention, and Ben Rich, chief clerk of that
rump house, to act as secretary. Thus
they have assumed responsibility for that
house and given their endorsement to
the actions Of the state administration
in attempting to force the legal house
from Representative hall They have
shown courage, too. in endorsing woman
suffrage, in which the great major
ity of the delegates believe. A
majority of the delegates of the
Republican convention also believe, or
protested to believe in the reform but
they were afraid of the loss of votes and
not only refused to endorse woman suf-
rage but scarcely treated with courtesy
the women present to urge 1t. The del
egates to the Republican convention
unanimously endorsed the Douglass
house, and yet they refused to nominate
Douglass, the speaker of that house,
Hoch, the speaker pro tenn, or Col.
Hughes, whose brave action saved the
house, and lost him his command Much
"a we differ with the Populists in their
ideas of government we must admire
their courage and confess that in this
quality they far excel our own party.
