and singing in choruses by the pupils.
Although the stage was small, sixteen
boys and girls gave concert songs and
recits tons. The Little Odd Fellows
"What I'd like to be- and the Hard
Times" song by the little girls were
especially pretty and interesting. A
violin solo by Miss Lottie Lowry re-
ceived most iattering compliment
later on, from Father McNulty. who as
visitor, was invited to make few re-
marks. He oomplimented the child

WASHINGTON, June 30. The United

state department, under date Of June

to have rendered it for some time past
the principal article of importation
from the United States.

CHANGING FRONT.

The Post of Tuesday has an inter
view with Col, jackson who has just
returned from the East Speaking
of the silver question he says:
1t is wonderful the change which
has taken place among the Eastern
people in regard to the silver ques
ton. AT one time you heard nothing
but approval of the policy of demon
citing the metal on all sides, but
that is changed L was greatly sur
prisej, while III New \ FORK recently,
to hear Wall-street men admit that
the attack upon silver had been a
serious mistake.
They are all agreed now upon
one point, that something must be
done to restore the metal to its old
position in the monetary word, and
to place it on a more secure basis
than ever. Some believe that this
will require the assistance of foreign
powers. while a difference Of ideas
prevail, of course upon the ratio,
which might be fixed 1T l ) to / or IS
to l. Tlis, however, is an after
consideration, but is just shows the
change Of feeling, and the same
opinions can be heard in mercantile
circles IL Chicago or among the farm
ers in Ohlo. The settlement of the
tariff question will soon create Wig
orous revival in business in the East,
as it undoubtedly will here.

TIE PEOPLES PARTY.

There seems to be misappreheI-
sion of the relations Of the Peoples
party and the Silver party to each
other. Two years ago the Peoples
party of Washoe county was organ
izei, a convention was held in
Reno, Sept. Is, 1892, composed of
100 delegates from the several pre-
cincts OF the county Many of those
delegates participated III the Silver
party State Convention held at Win
nemucca. Among the resolutions
adopted was the following:
We, the Peoples party of Washoe
county, III convention assembled, in
dorse the National platform and
nominees of the Peoples party Con-
vention held at Omaha, July 4,
1892, James 3. Weaver for Presi-
dent and James G. Field for Vice
President eff the United States; also
the platform and nominees of the
Convention of the Silver party of
Nevada, held at Winnemucca Sep
TENDER 10, 1892,
The Convention also declared that
it recognized in Senator VIM. NJ.
Stewart, Nevada's cham 2ion of free
coinage, upon which the prosperity,
if not the existence of the State de.
ponds, and fully Endorsed his non
partisan, in subordinatiug all other
considerations to the success of the
free coinage cause.
The nominees Of the Convention
were elected There was no lire
drawn between the Peoples party
and the Silver party. The same per-
sons participated in the Silver Party
State Convention and in the Peoples
party County Convention, in fact Il.
T. Leote, q delegate to the State
Convention, was Chairman of the
County Convention aud J. b. Me
Cullough, also delegate to the
State Convention, was unanimously
nominated in the County Conven-
ton.
These facts are stated for the in
formation of many who make in
quiries as to the relationship existing
between the Peoples Party of Wash
oe county and the State Silver Party.
There is no Silver party county or
ganization in Washoe. The members
of the State Central Committee Of
the Silver party and the local Com
mittee of the Peoples party arranged
for the appointment of delegates to
the convention to be held III Carson
September 4, at which, no doubt, a
ticket viii be nominated and a plat
form adopted that will be entirely
satisfactory to ever voter i'll the State
who is honestly in favor of financial
and other reforms and opposed to the
Wall street comblnation.-Rcn

We have, as a heritage left us by
the recreant statesmen Of the two cid
parties, an interest bearing debt of
thirty billion dollars BY demone-
tizing silver and burning thirteen
hundred million dollars of the peo-
Plies paper currency, our autocratic
servants propose to force US to pay
that interest in gold. We know there
are but four billion eight hundred
million of gold in the whole world,
and that in the United States we
have but seven hundred million of
that amount, and that borrowed from
England; but We must continue to
worship at the shrine Of the parties
that have sold us and our childre II
into bondage to a foreign money oil
garchy, even though We go ragged
and hungry, that official thieves may
still rob and degrade us-and we are
Americans.-f1x.

BLASTED HOPES.

The Republicans who are building
hopes Oh split III the ranks of the
silver men of Nevada are doomed to
disappointment, yet the hope is 50
allurirg that they still cling to it and
roll the sweet morsel under the
tongues Of their few subsidized news
papers.
An art.cl in another column from
the Reno Journal explains the matter

fully, and by consulting the columns
of the Journal one also finds that the
advertised call for the Peoples party
primaries, held yesterday, states that
the object of the primaries il to send
twenty-five delegates to the State
Convention to be held in this City
September 4th. This seems t. settle
the status of the split" that the
soldbug press of the State has been
SO anxious t. see materialized.

CIIILD'S GAME.

There used to be a play, common
at young peoples gatherings, in
which a leader was chosen, who
gave a word, a gesture, or both, and
all the players were required to i'm
itate or pay a forfeit. That play
seems to be about all the politicians
of the twin-tribe have learned of
craftsmanship. For instance, when
Cleveland says thumbs up" the
Democrats all show their thumbs
when Sherman says thumbs down,
down go Republican thumbs. Both
parties play the same game, and
they have played it so long that the
dry 70. of the imbecility is slowly
sapping both crowds of even the
faintest discernment of the signs OF
the times. The drivel and rot Of
congress on "tarifl," considering
that the nation is in the throes Of
revolution, would discredt fools
paradise. Almost every man in con
gress is watching the leaders for the
word, fearing to lose the forfeit OF
and, while the game
goes ON, the people are in an agony
of unrest, due to devilish legislation
Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1894-08-09

Do YOU ever call to mind that
when congress was convened in eX-
ira session twelve months ago, and
the bill for the repeal of the pur-
chasing clause of the Sherman law
was introduced, you were assured
and treasured times without num-
Der that just as soon as that clause
was repealed, all kinds of business
would revive with a bound that
would startle the land And do
you ever call to mind that every po-
litical striker for the two old par.
ties, every cuckoo congressman
Republican and Democrat-the Pres
ident and members of the cabinet,
all, with accord. all the Shylock
newspapers, without an exception,
repeated the prophecy And now,
DO you not realize, after year from
the repeal of that law, that the en-
tire conclave OF conspirators lied
like the Devil ?-that it was d de-
fusion, aud they knew it? And,
further, do you call to mind that all
the Populist press, Populist con
gressmen and senators, and all the
leaders, told you the movement was
a delusion and snare, and that the
repeal would only add to our troub-
les Do you remember any OF
these. things? Do you know now
who lied, and for what purpose

IT is the law of nations that he
who deserts to the enemy in time
of war, or who furnishes the enemy
with information injurious to his ma
ton. shall suffer death /; and this is
as it should be. But, while it is
right that one in the military service
of his country should suffer death
for his betrayal of trust, why should
one in the political service of his
country go scot free and be given
additional honors when he betrays
the people in matters strictly politl'
cal, but which result in heaping APP
palling burdens upon them! Trea-
son is treason, whether it is done in
times of either peace or war, and
the traitor should be given traitors
reward. If few of the political
traitors who have sold their country
into the power of England were
hung for their crimes, we would not
be furnished such scenes as are now
of daily occurrence in Washington.
And, if such men were hung for
their crimes, where would Sherman
and Cleveland be?
