has been proven by the history Of the

untutored warriors disproVes the belief
that standing army Of 100000 trained
soldiers is necessary for our defense
against foreign powers.
You, no doubt, agree with ms in re-
gard to other countries, but in regard to
using such methods to settle differences

advocate the maintenance of standing

lack of confidence in the democrats.
The tariff song occupied most of his
time. Some of his hearers say it is the
same one he used fifteen years ago.
OF course, ''protection keeps up the
price of American labor" He desired
evidently to make his hearers realize
that the United States is a great ma
tion-'the richest nation on the
globe" The people knew what wealth
has come under republican admins
tration. He might have completed
the sentence by telling where it has
gone to and who now has it.
His familiarity with our principles
was shown by his statement that "no
matter what the affliction the Populist
remedy is more money" Said he,
"The same lack of confidence would
exist if 10 billions of dollars had been
put into circulation when Cleveland
took his seat.
After telling how the McKinly bill
raises the price Of eggs to cents
dozen, we will add parenthetically and
keeps out Canada products and how
opposition to protection comes largely
from the impractical ignoramuses
known as college professors, he took
I'D the money question for a few min
utes.
''Major Morrill, and l are both bimet-
allists. I'll vote for Is to /; if 1 can't
get that, then II to 1 or Is to / or any
other ratio can get" Probably 30 to
or 50 to if the Rothschilds say so,
that is, if he got chance to vote, a
contingency which the intelligent Kan,
sas voter will guard against. 81 favor
the silver theories Of Reed, Cameron
and Lodge. Neither Of these commits
himself to any ratio. They are states
men and know how those things are
fixed" Every well informed man
present knew also show those things
are fixed" He said such points must
be settled by compromise. 1t re-
minded us of the husband and wife
who had a bitter quarrel. Some time
afterward neighbor meeting the man
asked how they settled the matter.
80, we compromised" said the man.
"Ah," said the neighbor, "howP"
"Well," was the reply, 1--WE compro-
missed by her giving in" That is the
way with compromises between plu.
tocracy and the people. The latter get
the woman's share. Did Lowell's lines

After explaining that he had never
apologized for the republican party
and never had any reason to, because
there was nothing to apologize for CD,
he proceeded to make clear p the mys-
terious nature of money. money is a
yardstick of value, 1. E., metallic or Gb-
soEUte money. The yardstick must be |
inAexible. Therefore we got what |
changes as little as possible. Gold and
silver have been found best. If gold |
