TOOK A METH0RIO FLIGHT THROUGH
THE STRONGHOLD OF POP
ULISM,
How the People Scattered When He
Ground His Protection 0rgan-A Curl
OuS Crowd at Topeka.

A meteor Of uncertain magnitude and
OF more Of less brillianCy shot BthWSrt
the sky Of Kansas last week and dis
appeared in the direction Of British
Columbis, leaving in ito wake q trail Of
local politicians and dusty statesmen.
William Mckinley, OF protective tariff
fame and governor Of Ohio, was engaged
by the republican ststs central com.
mittse to spend q day In Kansas telling
the ignorant" populace what they
needed and how they should vote in
order to get it That was 3 happy
thought on the part Of the committee,
but it caused some grief before the plan
was finally executed. The railroads
were to furnish the transportation for a
party of politicians to take Mckinley
ACROSS the state and back, and he was to
talk q few minutes at each Of certain
number Of stations along the route.
About ten minutes at country towns
and forty. five minutes in Topeka and
the other large villages was enough time
in which to persuade the benighted peo-
pie Of Kansas to turn from the error Of
their ways and place their trust in the
apostle Of protection. The effect Of all
this was to be two-fold. 1t was to pro-
mote the Mckinley presidential boom in
the west, and one word upon Macs pro.
lection bugle horn was TO make the Kan
sas voters fall over each other in their
mad rush to do something in the inter-
est Of the Morrill,. Blue, bsnker-lsWyer
ticket.
It was q magnificent scheme, but there
was some little clash about carrying it
out. Mckinley was met Bt Kansas City,
Mo-, by the Cy Leland committee and
informed that the money question had
taken absolute possession of the public
mind in Kansas; that the greatest gold
bugs on the republican state ticket were
now advocating "free, American silver at
some ratio" and that in order to do any
good he (McKinley) would have to do
likewise. Mckinley replied that he
could not very well do that He said he
was making this swing around the circle
partly In his own interest, that he was
not a free silver man and could not
afford to say he was one. It would {uin
his standing among Eastern capitalists
and totally destroy his chances for the
presidency. He could, however, ICON
scisnciOuSly tell the people (and he had
no doubt but that they would Obey) to

the republican candidates for congress,
knowing that their recent declarations
on the silver question we're not such as
to bind them to free silver in case they
were elected. Gle knows Morrill, and
Blue personality. He could managerial
all right and devote most Of his time
talking protection. He could present
the tariff question, hs said, In such q
striking way, that the people would not
want to hear about anything else. And
80 ever ything started of lovely.
FROM KANSAS CITY TO HUTCHINSON,
The Mckinley train left Kansas City,
Mo-, (where the governor had delivered
an address to the Priests Of Pallas crowd
the evening bsfore) at 7:2O O'Clock
Wednesday morning, October 8. 1t had
ON board the old crowd of politicians
who are endeavoring to carry the Nor
rill ticket to victory, and whose very
sight is so obnoxious to the younger
class OF republicans, as we'll as to the
Populists and democrats of the state.
There were Oy Leland and Joe Brlst0w,
Of the state committee, George T. An
thony, L. U. Humphrey, Sam Peters,
Jim Simpson, L. s. Crum, and a number
Of other hangers. on, with the Santa Fe
officials, George T. Nicholson, F. O. Gay
and Freight Agent Hudson, Rs chspsr-
ones, and number Of newspaper men.
At Argentine they were met at the
depot with what the Kansas Oity Star
called "a sullen crowd which did not
wave its hats nor cheer nor display any
feeling save that Of curiosity" Here one
statesman in the car remarked, "You bet
that crowd would rather hear Dsbs thaR
Mckinley" and the Others all agreed
with him. Here Mckinley talked pro-
lection for about fve minutes. At
Lawrence the party was met by about
1000 people who listened to another pro-
lection speech a little longer than the
one at Argentine.
At Topeka great prepare tions had
been made. Excursions had been run
from many points 100 miles distant, and
people had been given free trRnsporta-
ton in order to swell the crowd. The
whole county had been plastered with
posters. A speakers stand had been
built on the state house grounds, and
great cloth banners, such as "Welooms
to Ohio'g Governor, Pfotectlon's Cham
pion," Redeem the Commonwealth"
etc., Asgs and bunting were displayed
profusely. The schools were dismissed
and the children turned out In great
numbers. The Ohio man was escorted
from the depot to the state house by
the Mission Township Flambeau club,
mounted, and commanded by Colonel
Hughes, q number Of men on bicycles
and others in carriages. He reached the
speakers stand, where a crowd of 1900
or 10000 people cheered several times
and then held their breath waiting for

reference to the cost Of the Topeka
asylum.
1t is trpe that there was $2,9O2S3
more drawn from the state treasury to
pay the expenses Of the two ssylums FOR
the Populist year 1894 than for the re-
publican year Of 1898.
We will first let MIR. Howe explain
this. On page 4 Of his "little pamphlet"
he says: Naturally in growing state
there will be q slight increase from year
to year in expenditures. Nearly one
half Of all state expenditures is occs-
stoned by the necessary extension OF
charity to certain unfortunate citizens
and as the population increases the num-
Der Of these needy classes is augmented
and the monetary burden is increased" ]"
Now, let us "assume" that q republi-
can wouldn't lie-thRt Mr.. Howe is 80
honest and fair that he would not be
guilty of even Coloring his figures, 30 ss
to make favorable showing for the re-
public ans, and see what kind Of showing
"h is" figures would make for the Popu
list board when the whole truth is told"
He says of his OsswRtomie table "thst
q glance at the foregoing table WlllshoW
that Pop expenditures have greatly OK
ceeded those Of the republicans"
For the fiscal year ending June 80,
1893, it cost the republicans S1O3, 1913 Is
to run the OsswRtomie asylum. The
average number Of patients was 657
showing a cost of S15742 for each pa,
tisnt. Now, if the administration Of the
affairs Of this institution under q repub-
licsn board was wise and this was res-
sonsble cost it would certainly not be
unfair to assume that the same number
OF patients would cost the state the
same amount under the Populist board;
657 patients would cost slO3328 1S, but
it cost the Populists $105,23O71, or
g, 102 So more to run this institution
than it cost the republicans the preoed-
ing year.
When We consider the fact that the
Populists cared for an average Of III pa
tisnts instead Of 657, and that it cost
the republicans s1O3,S28.1S to care 657
patients in 1893, and allowing same cost
for same number under Populist board,
then it cost the PopullSt board the dif
ference between s10332818 and B105,-
23071 to care for the extra ia patients,
q cost OF 1884 to keep patient year,
while it cost the republicans S157.42 to
keep patient the same time.
This is the showing made by "Mr.
Hows's figures" for the POpulist board.
The fact is, it did cost the state as shown
by the vouchers on file in the auditors
Office, under the republican board $50 68
to keep q patient a year, more than it
cost under the Populist board. Now il
it cost $20.68 less to keep each patient
q year under the Populist administration
than under the republican, and there Is
III patients in the asylum does not this

Ingalls, slanderOuS Tongue and
Sam HOweS Figures.

In a political document called "Rec-
ord Evidence" by Samuel I. Howe (Hour
years state treasurer } and issued by the
republican state central committee, on
page II, he makes this statement:
"InsRne asylum, Topeka, cost the
state for the fiscal year ending June 80,
1892, 8lO9,269O9, republican officers.
Eor the fiscal year, 1893, 8104, 1893 q, rs-
publican first half, Populist second half.
"For the fiscal year, 1894, S105,09S67,
Populist.
"During the fiscal year Of 1894, the
Populists had full control Of that institu-
tion and in that year Of all others, when
at least majority Of the people Of Kan
sas were sconomizing in home comforts
and in business lines, the professions Of
the Populiat reformsrs and rstrencherB
If l may coin q Word-ahould have
borne fruit; but the expenditures that
year were more than those Of the pre-
Ceding year"
refer to this to show the 'perHeot
fairness" Of this republican instructor.
Il will be noticed here he takes the
credit to the republicans for the $500
less expenditure Of tie year 1893 than
for the year 1894, but does not refer to
SALTS greater expense Of the year 1892.
His claim here that the republicans were
responsible for the expenditures Of the
year 1893 is correct; for they had full
board until April l, 1893, and By reason
Of the further fact that the supplies for
the last half Of that year inexperienced
in December, 1892. On page Is, he says:
"The insane asylum, OsRWatomie, cost
the state for the fiscal year ending June
30, 1892, &87,88752. For 1893, Sl0S,-
828.18. For 1894, $1O5, ,4S0.71. A glance
at the foregoing table will show that the
POpulist expenditures have greatly eX-
oeeded those Of the republicans. \ .
The insane Rsylums at Topeka and Osa-
Wstomie combined cost the state during
the Populist year Of control e13, ,41727
more than did the last year Of repubh
can control"
Here it will be observed :thst in his
discrimination to be absolutely fair" he
makes the comparison with the year
1892, the next to the last Of republican
control, and not with 1893, aS he did in
