WE insert the following plank on the
money question, OF the republican plat
form. We confess we are unable to
analyze it. But we have come to the
conclusion that it was designed to de-
coy the Kansas voter:
American people favor bimetallism
and the Republican party demands the
use of both gold and silver as standard
money with such restrictions and under
Such provisions. to be determined by
Legislation as will secure the mantle
nance of the parity of values of the two
metals, and that the purchasing and
debt paying power of the dollar, wheth.
or OF gold, silver or paper shall at all
times be equal. The interests of the
producers of the country; it's farmers
and its workingmen, demand that the
minis be opened to coinage of silver in
the minis of the United States and that
congress should enact law levying a
tax on impOrtatiOns of foreign silver
sufficient to fully protect the products
of our mines.

IT is amusing, and yet, provoking, to
hear men who have been financially
ruined, by the inquitions system, boast
and glOat until they almost split their
outlets, over the glory of the present
dealing in options and futures. Men,
too, who claim to be experienced and
posted; who claim to have been mem
bers of the board of trade; who have
been farmers for the most part of their
lives. We have in mind just such a
man, and to avoid personalities will
say, IS resident of the county and STAYS
for the most part, in this city. This
man went into the grain shipping bust
ness without being in with the option
dealing men and the result was that
they skinned" him. But he is a good
republican and declares that over-pro-
cuctiOn did it and that an anticipation
bill would stagnate the business of the
country, and would be disastrous to the
farmers.

to talk about the interests of the farm

WHILE the republican party in few
states of the East has declared for free
silver and alarger issue of money, it is
q well known fact that there is not an
iota of sincerity about the plank. AS
a party it is opposed to anything to pass
as money except gold. That has been
demonstrated way back in rs. and has
been corroboIated in '92 and '99. Re.
publicanlsm walks hand in hand with
a gold pasis monetary system.

THERE never was time when indi-
cations were more favorable for a pop
ulist victory than the present. Every
western democrat realizes that the
present national administration is the
subservient tool of a moneyed aris-
tocracy and that the party bonds must
be severed. Here they are brought face
to face with the fact that in conse-
quence of such breaking away, they
must find party that has never been
trifled with by the corporations or the
money power. Naturally they could
not affiliate with the republican party,
with the foregoing principles in view;
and hence the only consistent course
will be to work with the popul-
ist party. Then again, the republican
party is fast killing itself with plat
forms. No true bimetallist can endorse
the platform adopted by the late re-
publican state convention. The days
of political serfdom are fast drawing
TO close, and the people will think
for themselves and vote for them.
