At Argentine, Kas., on Saturday, the
following resolutions were adopted:
WHRRHAs, His exOellenOY, L. d. Level
ling, governor Of the state Of Kansas, has
taken occasion, through the public press,
TO express his disspprova Of the methods
Of the Pullman Car company in the treat
ment Of its employees; and
WHBRHAg, He has deprecated the meth
DDS and utteFanOes Of federal officers and
others in dealing with the labor question,
and has shown and expressed q feeling Of
frsteFnal interest toward the honorable Of
forts Of lSbOring men to better their condi.
tiOn entirely al variance with that Of the
plutoOratiO press, railroad magnates, money
power representatives and some federal
officers, therefore be il
Resolved, That the American Railway
union of Argentine, in mass meeting as
sembled, does hereby take occasion 10 pub
licly express hearty appreciation of the
manly and honorable sentiments expressed
by che governor and TRUST the day may
come when men like his exoellency will
hold the highest offices in the gift Of the
people Of this nation.
The WyRndotte county Peoples party
central committee spoke as follows:
Resolved, That We sympsthize with the
American Railway union In it's fight with
the Pullman monopoly, and that we ap-
prove Of Che attitude Of Governor LEVEL
ling as shown by an interview. published in

tender for all debts and Of sufficient vel
ume with She gold and silver coined TO pro-
vide and maintain o circulation of at least
$50 per capita, TO the end that labor shall
find employment at far wages and the pro-
ducts Of industry a ready market at rernun-
erative prices.
Believing il TO be the duty of govern.
ment TO provide for the people the most ad-
vanced and approved means of information
and methods of education: Therefore, we
demand government ownsrship and man
Rgement Of telegraph lines in the United
States to the end that newspapers and resi-
dents in rural districts and in small towns
and cities may receive messages Rb the same
rates for transmission as newspapers and
residents Of the large towns and cities.
Believing shat the l6bOFsr is worthy Of
his hire, we favor such legislation as will
secure to the miner, railway employe, the
mechanic, the farmer and to all who labor,
a fair compensation for their labor, and we
demand that all disputes between em-
ployers and employees shall be adjusted by
compulsory arbitration.
We demand the passage Of a per diem
service pension law.

Of one from each county, is as follows:

NOTES.

The Lyon County farmers Alliance de-
Olsrss unanimously that il will help support
the American Railway union in its fight
against the Pullman company.
Should the republican committee, which
is Cy Leland. decide TO run campaign OF
education, il would be a hADpy day for
Kansas. Education breeds POpulism.
Morrill's friends are sad because ex-
Speaker Reeds proposition TO make few
speeches in the state has been accepted. A
man Of Reeds political makeup is poison
TO q Western mRn-eVen TO q Western re-
publican.
The board Of railroad commissioners
have reached decision ordering q general
reduction and equalization in freight rates
through the state, and the schedule pre-
pared for them will shortly be published.
This ID done in response TO numerous petit
tions presented in April, asking the board
TO take action looking toward equalization,
Senator Leedy took up the case for the pc
titioners and the companies we're notified
10 appear at a hearing in the matter. The
railroad attorneys and managers refused TO
take part in the arbitration Of rates unless
the board Wonld agree not TO make any con-
siderable reduction, 30 tho board "went it

that you win sit for this purpose, when
they will have an opportunity 10 present

CONGRESSMAN HUDSON RENOMNATED
By the Third District Congressional Con.
VentIOn at CherTyvale.

By the Third District Congressional Con-
VentlOn at CherTyVale
The Peoples party convention OF the
Third congressional district, held at
Cherryvsle June %, found 1t q very easy
matter to give T. j. Hudson q substan-
tial and Well.earned Endorsement in the
shape Of a nomination. AS there was no
opposition, the nomination was made by
acclsmRtion and was unanimous.
The counties were all represented by
full delegations, except Cowley, whose
delegates made DR.. F. Fl. Pitcher their
sole representative in order TO sRYe ex-
penSe money for their county campaign.
]. g. Eastman was temporary chairman
and j. M. Dunsmore permanent char
man. During the convention several
good speeches were made, among them
one by J. w. Rowe, and another by f.
III. AtChison, both of Labette county. o.
w. Hendee was called for and encour-
aged the delegates with his description
Of the wonderful growth Of the move
ment throughout the state. J. M. DunB-
more fairly "set the woods sire" with
his revival speech, and his "SledgO-ham-
mer blows" at the enemy's door pleased
the delegates immensely.
A poll Of the delegates showed that
over so per cent Of them were OK. Union
soldiers, and several were ex-Confeder-
atss. Over 25 per cent of the resolu-
tions committee were men who had be-
come Populista since the last election.
In addition TO Q strong Endorsement
Of tho Omaha and Topeka platforms,
and an emphatic commendation Of the
course Of Congressman Hudson, the res
olutions contained the following:
Believing che money question 70 be Of the
utmost importance, and at this time the
paramount issue before the American peo-
pie, and that our greatest need Is ''more
money and less misery" Therefore, we
condemn the demonstration Of silver in
1873 as che Hrst effort 60 degrade silver as q
money metal, and we denounce all subse-
Quent legislation which makes silver a COM
modify whose value Is measured BY gold as
q standard. We dsnOunce the hypOCriticGl
position Of the late republican state and
Third congressional district conventions in
bheir OOwardly and two-faOed declarations
in regard to silver. We demand the free
and unlimitsd coinage Of silver and gold on

silver in 1873, has grown steadily, disss-
troualy and enormously every year since,
until it is startling in the extreme; and
can't you gee that these robbsries and
wrongs would not be possible had wo
statesmen to legislste for us instead Of
the political torsdors who are the Ru.
thors Of our misfortuneY
Why, man, just think Of it for min
ute. Suppose we had no mountains OF
silver, and England had, and she were
indebted to US as we are to her, do you
suppose that she would destroy her sill
YER, thereby enhancing the value Of gold
and then insist on paying US in goldY
Her cruel expressions throughout the
vast world, whereby she has gained o
foothold, gives no man authority to say
yea
Remember that we are on gold basis
through no vote or voice Of the people.
We are where we are through the silent
manipulations and crafty, subtle and
evil influence which emsnstsd from the
dark and silent reoesses Of congressiona
cloak rooms and wine-suppsr ConspirR-
cies.
No man has ever openly advocated @
single gold standard in congress or out,
and yet we are on a single gold-standRrd
basis. A greater crime never was per-
petrRtsd against q free, enlightened and
intelligent people, and it is psrpetrsted
under the stealthy, crafty and deceitful
cover Of professional and political deClar-
stions in favor Of the greatest possible
use OF silver" and it's advocates thereby
hope to maintain such Q political mon.
stFositY. This abnormal and vulgar
crime is voiced in another cruel and de-
ceptive CRY, whereby the masses may
continue TO be robbed for the benefit of
the CLASSES, under the deceitful, spacious,
damnRble misnomsr called an "honest
dollar" and that man who, in the face Of
what we were and where we are now,
mouths such twsddling hog wash, is
either q mave OF fool, and / suspect
both, and does not and ought not to re-
csiVe the votes Of the toiling men in
Kansas or elsewhere.
You are q candidate for q great party

made in the past. as they always will be.
You nor are responsible for any

Coming from the war and going back
into the civil pursuits OF life wO old
soldiers remember how democracy de-
nounced in unmeasured terms every act
OF the government looking to the issue
Of greenbRcks, made necessary to feed

nation.
You and / and every old soldier
remembers how promptly that party
and ITS Southern influence declared in
favor Of the greenbsok in the payment
Of national obligations. Their sudden
conversion was so startling that we were
easily entrapped with the argument
that, having fought to destroy the gov
eminent, and failed, they were now seek
ing to destroy the public credit of that
government, made necessary to help sub
juRate them, and in spirit Of patriotism
borne amidst the hardships Of camp,

Can't you see that you are thus play

to-day owns the carrying trade Of our
people On the OCEAN, and whicn power,
through our United States courts and
reoeiVerships Of their own choosing, is

Don't you kn ow that the trRnsporta-

duction to that Of the consumer is as
much part Of the cost Of production az
the work Of him who produces itH
Don't you know that the power which
controls the transportation Of an article
from where it is produced to where it is
consumed can absolutely fix the price
thereof to the producer?
Don't you know that England to-day
controls both our transportation upon
the land to tide water and on the ocean
to the consumer, and that che has been

Don't you know that all OF the mis-
fortunes which oppress the American
people to-day had their inception in the
vicious financial legislation Of 1873 and
since, and that we have been brought to

this financial question; and don't you

who developed those magnificent re-
sources and placed their money in those
enterprises are being shut out, and their
