TWO NEW STORES.

We call the attention of our readers
to the opening of two new stores on
Lopez island. Samuel Taylor and his
son, Earnest, have built an addition to
their store building, at Lopez Landing,
and have put in a first-class stock OF
General Merchandise, which they will
sell for cash or exchange for farm pro-
duce. These gentlemen are both thor
ough business men and we predict that
they will do a good business. Read
their announcement in another column.
Mr.. w. Chatterton, merchant OF
Seattle. who has lately located in our
county, has put in stock of General
Merchandise, at Port Stanley. The
store will be under the management OF
Will Fowle, who will be glad to wei
come old as we'll as new friends in bis
new stand. This store is well located
and must necessarily control a con-
siderable trade which has heretofore
gone to Anacortes. Read their an
nouncement in this issue.

And now, friends, when your con-
vertion prevailed ON me to accept
this nomination 1 stipulated that they
should not require me to make per-

possible and unnecessary-impossible
because being farmer, like yourselves,
the next two months work are the most

justice OF our course, which is the final
effort of the people to get back to the
principles of Lincoln Republicanism
and Jefersonian Democracy, from
which we have strayed so far in the last
thirty years. | faithfully pledge you
my best efforts that we, of San Juan
county, may see a government of, by
and for the people, return to us once
more. Very sincerely yours,

The lizard Times Dance at the
Union Grove Hall, last Friday night,
was well attended and was a decided
success. The most noticeable feature
about the ladies was the predominence
OF bran New" calico and denims
dresses neatly and tastily made, thereby
giving an unusual air of freshness and
vivacity to our pretty girls and stately
matrons. Girls do you like taffy?)
Some of the men appeared in genuine
Hard Times clothes. Editors and
other people who were too poor to buy
overalls, wore the only clothes which
they had, and were accused of being
High toned" for SO doing.) The sup
per, really lizard Times" one, con-
sisted of coffee and doughnuts and
crackers and corned beef AS the coffee
was excellent and the doughnuts good
we think that there were fewer sour
stomachs than is usual after the regular
"Pie and cake suppers."
The orchestra discoursed sweet music
and the dancers kept up the revelry
until some time after midnight.

WHO is INCOMPETENT?
NO. II.

Populist congressman have been rOundly
abused for what is called their incompetency;
but it will be remembered that both old parties
are unfriendly to Populism, and so combine to
defeat any Populist measure, no matter how
meritorous, and the charge of 'incompetency"
falls fiat, because no party can fairly be consid-
cred incompetent if opportunity has been de-
MED Now, while we are speaking of incom-
potency, could any party be more incompetent
than either of the old parties, especially when
it is considered that, according to Car Reed,
congress has just passed tariff bill that neither
party wants? The truth of the whole matter
is, what one party is for, the other party is
"fernenst" The one is opposed to the other
for the sake of office. The good of the people
cuts no figure in congress, and about the only
thing congress is capable of doing 1--WE include
both parties) is to build up trusts and corpora
tions, accept Doodle and draw their salaries.
Talk about incompetency Why, if He'll
was run with no more wisdom or business fore
sight than is our congress, the supply of brim-
stone would not last fortnight. Satan keeps
no wasteful engineers. 1t belongs to the sover-
eign people of America to employ a lot of cor
poration attorneys, who are either knaves or
fools, or both.
No subject that was ever before the American
people has been so thoroughly ventilated as the
tariff question, and yet, according to old-party
authorities, the question is no nearer being set
tied that it was when the question sprang into
existence. Is the "great question" SO deep
that corporation lawyers cannot solve the prob
lem? If so, let them step down and out, and
give as many farmers of common horse-sense
chance, and we will guarantee speedy and per-
manent settlement. The tariff wind and decep-
ton of so-called American statesmen would
make Satan tired and disgust the minions of
He'll. For the sake of long-sufering public,
give us rest, for we are about ready to declare.

THE CAPITAL AND REV. J. d. BOTKIN.

j
Any utterance or effort the part of any
person looking to change of present industrial
conditions excites the ire of the Topeka Capital
as does the sight of a red flag the ire of mad
bull.
The Rev. J. d. Botkin is the subject of the
Capitals latest raving i'll long article headed,
"Agin the Government" Mr.. Botkin is a re-
cent acquisition to the Peoples party, and he
has given to the world his reasons for becoming
Populist. Being an able and earnest Christ
ian minister, of irreproachable character, the
Capital is constrained to refrain from the usual
mud-singing, so the article is confined to a mis-
leading statement of Mr.. Botkin's position.
The Capital says: "Rev. J. d. Botkin, the
recent Populist convert, gives some very bad
reasons for being Populist, all of which may
be summed up by the expressive headline to
this article"
The public has pretty generally read Mr., Bot
kin's letter. and it is needless to say that he
is not only loyal to our republic but loyal to
Christ; SO the Capitals statement is all untruth.
Mr.. Botkin, as are all Populists, is against
the present administration of our government,
but not against the form or principles, and
when he advocates the ownership of railroads,
or holding of farm lands for the benefit of all,
he simply advocates the enlargement of prin-
ciple as old as the constitution, and possibly as
old as man. We have common ownership i'll
our free schools and in our postal system, both
of which, although run on different lines, are
the most emnently successful and free from
abuse of any of the American institutions.
What Mr. Botllin aims at (as do all Popu-
lists) is the substitution Of cooperation of the
whole mass of people for competition of the
individual or company of capitalists. In the
competitive system, few men are enabled,
through cunning and the power that capital i'm
parts, to absorb the greater share of wealth pro-
duced by the honest and industrious laborers.
We are now beginning to reap the fruit Of
competition, which is causing a revolution in
the ranks of the intelligent, humane and Christ
ian.

Hurrah for our beautiful Kansas.

Hurrah for her picnics and dances,
Hurrah for her sunshine and joys

As pure as crystal her waters
Her sunshine like showers of gold;

Oh Kansas-my beautiful Kansas

And the breezes that lovingly fan us
Are born of the zephyrs on high.

KANSAS, SEPTEMBER ID, 1894.

AS Christian, Mr.. Botkin could not sanction
a system, or systems, so utterly at variance with
the teachings of Christ, and, So seeks change
not at variance with human rights or Christian
brotherhood
In the same article, the Capital raves about
socialism, saying: Socialism is the denial by
force of the right to own private property"
The Capital is never right, and never will be
until it receives new set of brains 1t utterly
fails to present socialism i'll so far as it is held
or taught by Popuists. Populism is the denial
by force of the few to starve the many On
this platform Mr.. Botkin Gas do all Populists)
squarely plants his feet, and will stand there
until this end is fully accomplished.
God did not make the earth for few men,
and our fathers did not ordan constitution
alone for the Goulds and Pullmans.

The Arena for September contains long re-
view of the Chicago Strike of ga The author
dsmisses the matter of riots and violence as be-
ing merely matter for the municipal and state
authorities to have dealt with under the pro-
visions of the statutory criminal law, and not
question affecting the principles involved in the
conflict between organized labor and organized
capital He then addresses himself to a criti-
cal analysis of the rights of both parties in the
conflict. These he denies according to the
greatest legal authorities, Blackstone, Coke and
others, and the common law and constitution of
the United States, and by the same analysis he
defines the nature and functions of the State
and Federal Governments. Then the author
declares the proper equilibrium of rights under
the law, and shows the peril of such a con-
fusion and perversion of them as was manifest
ed during the labor troubles in Chicago u
