John Ellis, M. ID.
Let ourgirls and women cast away
their corsets and tight dresses-they
will feel call gone" for time; stand
up as erect as possible, repeatedly
draw in a full breath and expand
their lungs to their utmost capacity
many times day, and they will re-
ceive renewed vitality, strength,
health, and beauty, and our native
race may yet be preserved from the
threatened annihilatiOn.

WHEN pension legislation reaches

WHEN pension legislation reaches
an extravaganza point it becomes an
evil that should be renedied. The
average cost of the pensions paid by
the United States is $40 to $12
year to every family in the country,
and the total burden of taxation is
probably $50 to $40. In many cases
the pension charge alone is equal to
half month g or even to a months
wages.

A Road Movement in Maryland

A farmer living 20 miles from the
city on a macadamized road can haul
a load of hay to market in a day.
Those living on mud roads require
three days. That is what a delega-
ton of the Maryland Road league
went to Annapolis to say to COM
mittee of the Maryland legislature.
The bill they offer advocates the an
nual expenditure of $25, 900 for
department of good roads, 1900
of which is to be the salary of a road
engineer.

Do Away with Cheokreins.

It is encouraging to read how
rapidly the movement to do away
with checkreins is gaining In Eng
land. Railway, coal, brewery and
other companies which use draft
horses have abandoned the use of
the cruel bearing rein on alihorses
women need an arrest of thought on
the subject of the cruelty they unin-
tentionally exercise upon their horses.

A SYSTEM of legislation that raises
the price OF a mans food or clothing
Is unjust. That is McKinleyism
against which the people of this
country rendered stunning verdicts.
If the Senate is not too corrupt, it
will pass a reform tariff measure and
do it quickly.

THIS is the way it is according to
the Chicago Times: "The Senators
who own coal lands and want a
tariff on coal, the Senators who
speculate in sugar trust certificates
and demand tariff on sugar"
They betray the people and should
be relegated to private life.

the committee that she would intro.
duce minority report and fight for
suffrage in the convention.
Scarcely anything was talked OF

in hotels-everywhere. All looked
forward to lively time on Wednes-
day and they were not disappoint-
ed. We are sorry that we haven't
room for a full report RESOLUTIONS

sible to give it now. Both sides
were prepared for the fray. The
suffragists appeared to have the odds
against them, but they were brave
and determined 1t was beautiful
fight, and we shall give a report of
it next week. The final vote stood:
For suffrage, 337 against, 269.
After this the platform was adopt

PROHIBITION CONVENTION.

The Prohibitionists held their
state convention at Emporia, Tues.
day and Wednesday. 1t was a
large and enthusiastic convention.
A platform much like the Populist
platform was adopted. Indeed, a
large majority, if not all, of the del
egates are in favor of union Of the
reform forces. They are really
Populists in principle. The only
difference is the prohibition plank in
their platform.

GREAT ENTHUSIASM.
LEWELLING RENOMINATED.
THE WOMEN WIN.
LEWELLING RENOMINATED.

which has been in session at Topeka
this week was the most enthusiastic
convention that has been held in
that city for many years. The con-
vention was composed mainly OF
men who earn their bread by honest
toll, and mostly of farmers-it was,
indeed, PEOPLES convention.
Tuesday was mainly occupied by
organization.
Promptly at IL O'clock, Chairman
Breidenthal called the convention to
order. Rev. Anna Shaw invoked
the Divine blessing.
The woman-suffrage question i'm
mediately came to the front in the
selection of temporary chairman,
Ben S. Henderson, a radical woman
suffragist, was chosen. When Mr..
Henderson was escorted to the chair,
the women on the platform waved
their handkerchiefs furiously. In
accepting the craftsmanship, Mr..
Henderson made short speech, in
which he referred to various party
issues, and then called attention to
the suffrage question. saying: "The
suffrage question is an issue in this
campaign, and we will not, like the
cowardly Republicans last week,
avoid the question. 1t takes brave
men to meet tine issues of the day,
and we are equal to the emergency.
The convention cheered with delight.
Chas. S Davis, son of Congress
man Davis, was chosen temporary
secretary.
Chairman Henderson called on
Rev. Goodnew, of Pawnee county,
who led in prayer. He asked God
to bless the chief executive of the
nation, provided that he repent of
his sins, whereupon there was sup
pressed cheer. Referring to woman
suffrage, he prayed that "the mil
lions of DISTINGUISHED women in this
country be released from their bond
age" He concluded amid storm
of cheers and amens. The people
were 80 full of enthusiasm, and the
prayer struck responsive chord,
and they Just couldn't help it.
Shortly after this, the convention
adjourned and the committees got
to work.
During the morning session, a
CHEEKY telegram was received from
Mrs. Jerry Simpson, saying that
Jerry is rapidly improving and will
be ready ior the fight. The conven-
ton "took the roof off the house,"
and the secretary was instructed to
reply.
The convention re assembled af.
ter dinner.
The committees not being ready
to report, speeches were called for,
and the suffrage advocates proceed
ed to get in some good work. Mrs.
Carrie Lane Chapman-Catt, one of
thesmost noted speakers of the age,
delivered a short but telling address
in favor of woman suffrage. She
was followed by Susan B. Anthony,
whose address was short. but to the
point. After she had finished her
speech, a delegate, Mr.. Carpenter,
Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1894-06-14

arose and asked the privilege Of
asking Miss Anthony some ques
tions. His request was granted, and
he asked: miss Anthony, in the
event that the Peoples party con-
vention endorses woman suffrage,
will you give us aid and help us to
beat the Republican party 2" Miss
Anthony replied: II have stood
before the American people for forty
years, and in all that time | have
said that if either of the leading
parties of the state and nation would
put woman suffrage in their plat
form, for that party | would wave
my pocket handkerchief don't
know anything about the planks in
any of the platforms. l will attend
your meetings Twill give you the
advantage of my name, and if you
will give an hour / will talk for the
women. l could not talk Republic
anism if l went into the Republican
party. l know nothing but woman
suffrage"
This did not satisfy Mr. Carpen
ter, and he said: II ask you that,
in the event that the Peoples party,
here in this convention assembled,
endorses woman suffrage, will you
20 on the stump throughout this
state, and say that the Peoples party
has stood by you, and you want the
men who are in favor of woman
suffrage to help the Peoples party,
who have had the courage OF their
convictions to stand up for woman
suffrage ?" Miss Anthony replied
IL certainly shall" Deafening were
the cheers that followed.
Judge Frank Doster followed
with a speech that was frequently
interrupted with cheers.
The committee on permanent or
ganization then presented a unani-
nous report. j. M. Dunsmore,
speaker of the late "Dunsmore
house." was chosen chairman, and
Ben G. Rich, chief clerk of the
"Dunsmore house," was chosen Sec
retary-w which brought down the
house."
Rev. Anna Shaw was called for,
and she made short address. She
said: IL am not a Populist to-day.
1t depends on you whether am or
not tomorrow. She said she knew
no more about the tariff than man,
and money" she added, twill
never be too free for me-" She said,
"If you'll whoop for me, I'll whoop
for you, and | am 80 confident that
you will adopt our plank tomorrow
thas shall go out to the woods TO-
night and practice on the whoop."
The speech was full of humOr and
bristled with good points.
Convention adjourned.
During the evening session, but
little business was transacted, the
time being occupied mainly with
speeches.
The committee on rules and order
of business reported. The commit
tee recommended that all resolutions
be referred to committee on resolu-
tions without debate. Judge Dos
ter obtained the floor and said that
was blow at woman suffrage, and
said it was a cowardly act The
convention defeated the scheme.
