They Should Support Him.

cans of Kansas are suddenly acquiring
wonderful admiration for the Hon.
Thomas Brackett Reed. Mckinley
stock, which has heretofore been at a
premium, has dropped several points
with them lately, and the burly, pomp-
Gus, political leader from the Pine Tree
state looms up into sudden prominence
above the Kansas horizon. Mr.. Reed
has had himself interviewed and makes
due haste to announce the fact that he
has very suddenly discovered that the
interests of the American people re-
quire the use of silver as a part of their
currency. AT the same time the lead
ers OF the republican party in Kansas
take one of those periodical, hypocriti-
cal spasms so common for them to
take when they get afraid of an upris-
ing OF the people, and yell Justify for
recognition of the rights of silver. This
remarkable change of front on their
part and on the part of Mr.. Reed, also,
both happening at the same time, to-
gether with their suddenly-acquired
admiration of him, is significant.
Now, while these same leaders may
be able to give reasons which are salts
factory to themselves for rallying
around Mr.. Reed, what reasons will
they hold out to the rank and file of
their own party that shall induce them
to do the same? What is there, let me
ask, in the record of this man Reed to
commend him to the support of the
great common people, and especially to
the people of the Western and South
ern states? Aside from strictly parti-
san measures and measures designed to
further the interests of his own section
of the country, he has done nothing. l
defy anyone to point to one measure
originated or champiOned by him
which was in the interests of the
masses of the people. On the contrary,
he has ever been found on the side of
the corporations, the mOnopolists, and
the capitalists, whenever these inter
ests have come into collision with the
rights of the great common people.
Let us see what his record is on few
things.
The act incorporating the Northern
Pacific Railroad company and making
land grant to it was passed in 1864.
By the terms of this act the company
must complete the whole road by July
4, 1876. BY the joint resolutions of
May Z, 1866, and July 1, 1868 (as ruled
by the department), the time of the
completion of the road was extended
to July 1, 1879. Now, when the time
had expired wherein the road should
have been completed, only part of it
had been constructed, and according
to the terms of the grant, it was only
entitled to the lands along and ad-
jacent to the completed part. 1t after
ward completed the greater portion of
the unfinished line, and then set up a
claim to the lands granted by the act,
Notwithstanding that all its rights to
them had expired by limitation.
Mr.. Cobb of Indiana introduced
bill in the house of representatives to
forfeit all unearned land grants, in.

Northern Pacific. 1t was referred to

"It MEANS" he answered nervOusly,
filling his pipe to save time, sit means

know things"
"Oh," she answered, "that's spelled
SENSE"
"Well, that will do; you may go
now," and he scratched out the &c"
that he had started the word with, and
filed in the word that made the SEN
tence read that women lacked horse
sense. And continuing, he closed the
paragraph, which was intended for an
editorial opposing woman suffrage.
with:
< Woman, by nature, by environment
and by education, is precluded from
voting. Man, by the superiority of his
strength and intelligence, claims the
privilege of protecting her and the
right of doing the voting for both. The
true womanly woman readily comedies
this right to her husband. She has i'm
plicit confidence in her husbands judg-
ment in all things pertaining to poll
tics, and never thinks of doubling it.
She realizes her inability to grasp the
deep problems pertaining to political
economy, and gladly leaves it all with
her husband"
Having finished, he leaned back in
his chair, cooked his feet up on the
table, and regarded his work with
look of satisfaction, feeling as though
he had, with few mastery strokes of
the pen, disposed of very troublesome
question.
He was disturbed from his pleasant
contemplation by his wife entering the
room and greeting him with:
"Well, sir, you seem to have COM
pleted your work, and as l have got
the children all to sleep, l suppose 1
might come into your presence. What
have you been writing about2"
81 have been writing on woman'S
suffrage" he replied very deliberately.
sin favor of it, of courseP" she said,
reaching for the paper.
"No, indeed. Read it over and see
what you think of it. Notice the spell
ling and grammar as you 60 along"
She read it over in silence, and laid
it down with the remark:
81 reads all right, but don't seeany
reason in it why 1 should not vote if l
want to-"
"You don't? Isn't the fact that you
know nothing about politics enough to
convince youP"
"I'll admit that l don't know much
about politics, but then l have a smart
husband. He could teach me-"
"Women can't grasp the problems
of political economy. 1t takes mans
brain to understand those things.
Women Jump at conclusions, while po-
litical knowledge is only reached by
long course of reasoning. Now what
do you know about politics2"
"I know the names of the political
parties. Isn't that enoughP"
"No, ma'am. You must know the
great principles that those parties rep
resent. You must understand the
issues of the day. You must post
yourself on these things before you de-

you have got the constitution and the
Declaration of Independence badly

"Well, never mind the constitution.
The thing is to understand the politi-
cal platforms and the great issues that
the different parties contend for.
That's where you are grossly ignor-
ant"
~ know it, but 1 am willing to learn.
Now, I've taught you great many
things about spelling and grammar
and rhetoric. Can't you teach me
about those things? What are those
great issuesP 1 believe that women
are going to vote in spite of your senti-
mental gush about Fcfinging vines and
heavenly atmosphere, and l want to
be prepared for it,"
"Well, now, just to humor you, l
will give you a brief outline of what
you have got to understand, and when
you have heard it l think you will be
satisfied to 60 back to missionary teas,
neighbOrhood gossip and spring hats.
There is tariff, high tariff, low tariff,
and no tariff; money, single-basis,
double-bas and nO-basis. There is
national banks and state banks; and
government ownership of railroads and
telegraphs. Then there's land mo-
nopolies and trusts and combines and
dozen other things"
"Do the men understand all those
things?"
eyes, certainly, most men do"
"Then l am surprised to learn that
they have allowed things to get so
mixed up. How does it come that
there are such things as trusts and
combines and monopoliesY How does
it happen that almost everything
imaginable is an issue? Haven't you
got something settledp"
"Well, yes, the republican party has
certain principles that"
"I don't want to know anything
about parties yet. l want to under
stand the issues first. After we have
gone over all of them then l can pick
out party. 1 want to examine the
whole stock of goods first"
every well, we will take up the
tariff issue first. That's the greatest,
and at the same time the simplest one
of them all. If you can't understand
that, you are too dumb to VOTE"
"Oh, 1 think 1 understand that al
ready. It's a tax levied on the people
to help build up the manufacturing in
terests of the country, is it not?"
"There you go. It's no such thing.
That's just like a conclusion that
woman would reach. The tariff is a
tax levied on foreign goods, and the
foreigner pays it"
"Oh, does he? What does he do that
for?"
she does it for the privilege of sell
ing his goods here"
"I'd like that. 1 think l would vote
in favor of that. The tariff isn't
added to the price of the goods, is it2"
"Well, yes, to the foreign goods
it is.'
"But the foreigner don't buy those
goods back again does her"
"NO, of course not. The American

There was continuance of the bull furore ,es-
pecially marked in Sugar. in which it was re-
ported strong bull pool has been formed to
take advantage of the influence of the protec-
ton which the Senate finance committee is be-
leved to have decided to embody in the Wilson
bill. The sharp rise in Sugar helped the bull
sentiment in other stocks and the shorts were
liberal buyers at advance. The expectation of
the declaration of the usual dividend on st.
Paul, and the extent of the economies now prac-
ticed by the railroads to offset the decline i'll
gross earnings are sustaining elements for the
granger group. 1t is an unsatisfactory feature
to see evidence of continued selling for foreign
account and the advance in sterling exchange
to-day foreshauows more exports of gold at the
end of the week. 1t is hardly probable that the
English steamer this week will take out gold,
but unless there is a decided change in the
in the market for foreign exchange
round amount of the precious metal is certain
to go abroad on Saturday 1t seems to us that
confidence cannot be entirely given to the gen.
eral speculation while there is a prospect of
large SHlpllleulS VI SOlu eiilu iio tooui eSAOO
against such a movement can be given until
the danger of unwise financial legislation in
Congress like the seigniorage is shown to be
moved 1t is well to remember also that the
rapid rise in values has eliminated a heavy
short interest from the stock market. 1t may
be possible that the bull pools can carry the adj
vance further and create more public buying
than has been developed In view of the prob
ability of unsatisfactory railway earnings for
some time, and the uncertain condition of tariff
and financial legislation, however, we believe
caution is desirable. and while it may be safe to
buy good stocks on reactions, it is not desirable
to make purchases on radical spurts like that
of to-day.
