Machine.---He does not want TN. Dem
ocratic Party to take an nttack of.Sc
grophobia."
In a recent open letter on the 10.
lltlcal situation he saws:
The policy of our Democratic edi-
tors just now is to express great
solicitude for the welfare of those Of
lis who are old time Republicans. /,
Tor one, greatly appreciate their
feelings IN this matter, especially SO
when | realize the fact that it is
prompted by sincere motivcs(:). One
would lmmagine from the tone of
their editorials that if We would only
nominate .straightout Republican
State and Congressional ticket that
they would fall in line and help
elect them. The truth is, they see
the writing on the WALL" and
their only hope now is to induce us
to put out regular Republican tick
ct and therefore afford them pre-
text for calling on the dissatisfied
element of their own party to return
and save them. If we take their ad-
vice and make straight fight, Their
Sollcltude will at once disappear and
each and every one of them will
take a fit of negrophobia within
twenty-four hours after our ticket
is nominated.
Let all our Republican friends
make up their minds to lay aside all
differences and come together sfioul-
der to shoulder in the common con-
tlict and march in a solid phalanx
with the fifty thousand farmers who
have decided to no longer bear the
yoke of oppression and we will carry
the State by twenty-five thousand
majority.
| wish to say here and that | am
not candidate for any office and
that my only object in this camgaign
will be to do all in my power to help
elect a Legislature that will repeal
the present election law and restore
to the people the right of local self
government.

PIE-COUNTER CORRUPTION.
"A Halt to he Called on the Great Civil
ervice.---Reformer Abuse of Patronaye
Washington Post.

Washington Post.
Representative Bailey, of Texas.
has formulated bill which he in
tends soon to introduce making a re-
petition impossible of the rumors
and charges which have been in cir
cuiation ever since Congress met last
August to the effect that the execu-
tive was exercising undue influence
over the Legislative branch of the
government. SO marked has been
the exercise of patronage in some
cases that Senator Lodge, in an au-
thOrlzed Interview, went so far as to
say that it was the attitude and act
ion of the administration in dispen-
sing offices SO as to secure votes
which influenced his adverse vote in
the case OF NJ .Peckham. Mr.. Bailey
proposes to divorce the executive
and the Legislative branches of the
government by making it impossible
tor any Senator or member to have
any voice whatever in the distribu-
ton of patronage. If the President
needs any advice or suggestions out
HlbC VI tLIcSc StHtdlutA III tu6 pd DoTS
filed by the applicant, he must seek
1t elsewhere than from a member of
;ht Senate or House. Mr.. Bailey
thinks that this law, if enacted, will
result IN an independence on the
art of the Legislators that they can
not now possess, and which, in fact,
they cannot possess as long as they
are dependent upon the Presidential
favor for the offices for which their
constituents hunger and which the
do not get if the legislator fails to
vote III accordance with the wishes
Of the administration. Mr.. Bailey's
bill. If it ever reaches that point
where it is debated, will be provoca-
i've of an interesting discussion. and
1t would be interesting to analyze
the votes east for and against it.

Kansas has forced the Pullman car

n Most extraordinary Verdict for Amer

Indianapolis. Nov. SIN response to
request for an expression of his views
regarding the result of the election,
ex-President Harrison said:
1T was the most extraordinary polit-
ical revolution the country has ever wit
messed. Wherever there was q free bal
lot the vote of confidence given In 1892
to the democratic party has been recalled
and the vote of utter and final re-
pudiation substituted. The incoherence
of the democratic party was revealed
the moment power was Civ
en- 1t to deal with ma
tional affairs. The insincerity of it's
platform was exposed when be it enact
ed took the place of be it resolved.
For 30 years party expediency has
been substituted for party principles,
and the expediency had as many faces
as there were congressional districts.
Every eccentric cross current of the
popular prejudice was followed as il it
was gulf stream. Glasses were created
and infiamed to outbreaks and disorder.
In one state the debauched currency
and in another the socialism that was

Property. especially the mills and fac
tories. was invested and assaulted in
one section and in another the trusts
were secretly coddled. The old demo-
cratic doctrine that favored the levying
OF customs duties to tine limit of ade-
quate revenue was abandoned. A defici-
ency to be made good by bond issues or
by internal taxes was preferred to the
incidental nrnfaatinn that a6a to
toms duties would give. The silver ques-
ton was dealt with in a mast vacillating
and irresponsible manner.
"A vast majority of our people be-
lieve in a protective tariff-never so
many and never so strongly as now.
They differ as to the rate and schedules.
but not as to the principle. They believe
in reciprocity as the first method of
getting foreign markets They believe in
a progressive foreign policy. The work
ingmen voted their prejudices in 1892:
they voted their patriotism and their
love of home Tuesday.
1.-The enormous falling off in the dem
ocratic vote everywhere is not less en-
phatic in its meaning than the majority.

formers in New York city ought to
