AGAINST IT. VERSUS FOR IT.

There is one thing that the people of
| the Seventh district would like Con-
gresham Simpson 10 explain. 1t is not
a matter to be joLed about or to be put
aside by light sally Of wit, at which, it
is granted, Congressman Simpson Is ex-
pert.
1t is bis vote against the anti-option
| bill. His constituency wanted that bill
passed. He helped defeat it. That bill
was approved by the Farmers Alliance,
| Grange and other like organizations.
| 1t was satisfactory. After It Lad been
discussed it came up for passage under
suspension of rules when it was def ated.
hr. Simpson voted agains; it. For that
vote he was criticized severely by sew
eral PopulisC papers. But it is neither
here nor there how he was criticized and
roas,ed.
The fact which is to be considered by
all sensible men is his vote against the
bill. the charge made by C. Wood Davis
that he was bought up. and Mr.. Smp-
sons explanations. He has explained,
but he HIS not explained in az honest
way. One of his explanations is that
the bill, as amended by the senate,
placed -four under the control of the
millerS' combine; another that the bill
was vicious and he was smart enough
10 get on TO the fact; another that option
dealing was gambling and that the bill
licensed option dealing and therefore
licensed gambling.
Mr.. Simpson, in his explanations, does
not say that he was the only Populist
member OF congress that voted against
the bill; that he was the only member
from Kansas that did so. If his vote
was right then Senator PETER, Congress
men Baker and Davis and all the bal
ance were wrong, and if they right then
Dir. Simpson was wrong. II the bill
was a snare aud delasion and Mr.. Simp-
son was smart enough to see it, W by did
he not consult with his Populist brothers
and get tile them also against it; at least
raise his voice 10 warn them?
To show that Mr.. Simpson knew he |
was wrong, in June 1894, as another |
nominating convention WAS approach |
ing. he went to Washington from the |
watering place where lie had been stop
ping for his health, and was in the house |
to vote for the new bill introduced by |
Mr. Hatch.
Mr. Simpson is cornered on his anti |
option vote, no matter which way he |
turns. He has voted for it and voted /
against 1t. His excuses are lame and un-
reasonable. If the bill was not exactly |
right it would have been easier to have
it later on than TO attempt
passing a new bill after having the first
bill go down in defeat. His record on
is as follows:
June 2, 1892, voted for Hatch bill
when it passed the house.
February 3, 1898, voted with Mr.
Hatch to refer bill, as amended by sem
ate, to committee on agriculture.
March 1, 1893, on motion of Mr.. Hatch
to suspend the rules and pass the bill,
voted against. Votes-Xeas, 172; nays,
124 The bill, not having the necessary
two thirds under suspension of rules,
was lost.
June, 1894, voted for new anti-option
bill.
This is not abuse. 1t is not partisan
charge. The records of Washington
show it. The statements given are OF
falsehoods. But it arraigns Congress-
man Simpson ard it voices general de-
mand for an explanation that Is honest
and frank.
The Wichita daily eagle., 1894-10-26

Congressman Simpson is an absolute
free trader and believes in letting Cam
ada, his native country, sell her pro-
ducts in the United States free of duty.
Canada is in favor of such a policy in
this country but protects herself by a
duty of cents a dozen on eggs, 4 cents
a pound on butter, 1! cents "A pound on
live hogs and cents pound on pork
and beef; 10 cent, bushel on wheat
and y cents bushel on corn. Mr..
Simpson IS better friend to Canada
than to the Seventh congressional dis
trict of Kansas.
