LOngIs KnOck.DOwn Argumentl

Chester /. Long, James A. TroutmRrf
and the apostle Kelley, spoke at q meet
ing at Ness City. While Troutmsn was
speaking farmer in the audience in-
quired for his views on the initiative and
referendum proposition. Troutmsn re-
piled that he would leave that for the
next speaker to discuss. Kelley followed,
and when the farmer renewed the ques-
tion it was put off in the same way as
before. Then Long took the stand and
again the question was asked in re-
spectPul manner.
By this time Long had studied up an
answer. "All right" he said, "there is
referendum club in Topeka that
passed some resolutions which accord
with my views exactly" Then he took
from his pocket and read some rssolu-
tions Of the Bennington Corning club,de.
nouncing the state administration but
saying not a word about the subject Of
inquiry.
This brought a good laugh from the
jumping jacks who had come there to
cheer Long, but it did not satisfy that
part Of the audience that had come
there for information. Besides, that is
a locality in which Corning lived and left
an unenViable record, and any rssolu-
tion from him would disgust a decent
man.
At the same meeting Long was asked
how he and his party stood on the
seigniorage bill, the questioner Rocsnting
the second syllable Of the word ssignior-
age. Long replied in very statesman
like manner, 81 sm oonstitutionslly op-
posed to snoring Of any kind"
That is the kind Of argument the pso-
pie are getting from the republican plat.
form in this campaign. And this fellow
Long expects, or pretends to expect,
that he will be called upon to take Jerry
Simpsons place,

MADE HIM LEAVE THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
my name is George Weishsupt. l
reside about four miles from Mound
Valley, in Lsbetts county, Kansas. I
am the father Of two inmates Of the
imbecile asylum at Winfield. Their
names are Joseph and Harry Weishaupt,
They have been inmates Of this institu-
ton for over two years.
II learned some time ago, while in
the courthouse at OJwego, that COM
plants were being made about the way
the inmates in that institution were
treated. My first information was from
Wiley Cook; there was another man in
the Office. They first asked me IL l
knew Walter Steele, one Of the inmates
in this asylum at Winfield, and / told
them that I did not know anybody by
that name, but maybe it was one of my
boys, and I told them I expected to 60
out there either that week or the next,
and the man who was in the county
clerks Office, whom l did not know,
told me that he would furnish me q
pass. | then left the Office and about a
week after that I received the pass. It
was handed me by DR.. McCuRe, Of
Mound Valley, Kas, whom l knew to be
an active republican. At the same time
Of handing me the pass he handed me
the Winfield Courier containing the
article with reference to the manage
ment Of the institution, and he told me
to 60 to Winfield and take an officer and
60 out to the asylum; not to 70 myself
or give my name, but to take an officer
along, and go in and see my boys.
~ thersupon went to Winfield upon
the pass handed me by DR.. McCune, the
return portion Of which pass is as fol-
lows:
