MorriIl's Small CaIlbre
Kansas Citv Tlmes

Kansas City Times.
Major E. n. MOrril, the Republican
candidate for governor Of Kansas,
has held a good many offices during
the course Of his life, but If the ut.
terances in the opening speech Of his
gubernatorial campaign are to be
taken as guide to his capabillty, he
has demonstrated that good deal Of
office holding may be done on a small
quantity OF information and q mes-
gre amount Of ability.

Stand Up for the Bankers.

Banker Morrill, opened the cam
paign at Kansas City, Kansas, last
Saturday night. He did not make a
single argument on the issues of the
day, but spent his force all in buster
about redeeming Kansas. The near
est approach to a discussion Of the
issues was the statement that if he
had been in Grover Cleveland'S po-
sitiOn he would have issued a prOcla-
nation stating that there would be
no change in the tariff laws and that
he would sell bonds as long as ne
could get gold for them to maintain
the credit Of the nation" We have
no doubt he would have done so and
from bankers standpoint, it would
have been good business, although a
little hard on the people.
Upon meditation, however, we can
not help inQuiring after he had load
ed the people down with all the debt
he could put upon them, payable in
gold, and the gold had all gone out OF
sight so that he could not play
ShuttlecOCk with it any longer, what
would he do? Would he tell the US.

The New York banks have decided
to disgOrge little gold for pclicy's
sake. They are getting afraid Of the
American people. You know gold is
the worst coward in the world, when
it sees people awake. But their Ia
test move is only blind. They pre-
tend TO be willing to furnish gold for
export to prevent the depletion Of
the treasury-but they are merely
bidding for more confidence.

In its report of the POpulist state
convention even the Kansas City
Times is forced to make admissions
to its credit:
"The courage of the convention is
also a cause for pride. The Repub-
Eican convention was Liliputian in
contrast. The POpulist convention
met and grappled with every
question which came before it. and
promulgated doctrines, whether wise
or unwise, of no uncertain meaning.

nent to pay the miners wages, than
It is to force them to work for the
