Immediately afterwArd by saying that
while he was in sympathy with Mt.
Coxey and all that, he thought 1t o little

WARRzAs, The universal, unsettled con-
dition of commercial manufacturing and

Coxey Meeting In Winfield.

Winfield and vicinity held q rousing
mass meeting at the court house on
Monday evening, April 80. The court
room was crowded and it is estimated
that 800 to 1000 people went away with
ont being able to get near enough to
hear any Of the proceedings. The trees
adjoining the house were full Of people
who climbed up to hear what might be
said. The meeting was called to order
by the chairman Of the Populist commit
toe who stated that the object Of the
meeting was for the purpose Of discuss.
ing the CoXey movement and to try to
determine the causes Of the movement
and its probable results. In order that
the discussion might be made from
every political point of view, three
speakers had been selected, represent
ing the three political parties.
z. B. Buck was selected as chairman
Of the meeting and made short, char
Rcteristic address in which he stated
that the tariff question had been the
bone of contention between the old par
ties for many years but that the sub
jeCt had long since been exhausted and
that there had not been an original idea
promulgated upon that question since
the time Of Henry Clay.
Hon. John A. Eaton, who represented
the democratic element, was next called
for and the manner in which the sp-
plsuse wellod up from all parts Of the
house showed that the audience was in
sympathy with the sentiments expressed.
Mr.. Eaton portrayed in q lucid manner
how the rights Of the people had been
bartered away by corrupt legislators
and politicians in the years that have
pRssed, through the lobbying of bankers,
corporations and monied interests. While
he was not altogether in accord with
Mr.. Coxey's idea he believed that the
cause Of the uprising was the result Of
unwise and vicious legislation Of the
past and the dilistory tactics Of the
present congress.
Hon. W. P. Hackney, who represented
the republican element, followed Mr..
Eaton in q speech that might be said to
be ''out Of sight" Mr.. Hackney scored
the corporations aud charged the pres
ent condition Of the people to the un-
just legislation Of the past twenty years. |
He paid his respects to the present Rd. |
mlnigtration and congress in the most
vigorous style and Senator Wolcott came
in for blistering that was adequate for
all purposes. Mr.. Hackney told many |
truths during the progress Of his re-
marks but his speech must have been
heard to be appreciated. His remarks
clearly indicated that he is with and for |
the people,
Hon. s. M. Scott, Of Emporis, who |
represented the Populist element, was
the next speaker and opened by saying |
that the other speakers had practically |
voiced his sentiments and came very
near leaving him nothing to say. How
ever, Mr.. Scott managed to hold the |
undivided attention Of the large audi
ence for nearly an hour upon the eco
nomic conditions which make the Coxey |
movement possible.
The most remarkable coincidence Of
the meeting was the unRnimity with |
which the three speakers, representing |
