The success Of the republican party IN
the past has been due 10 its championship

which can only be reached BY the removal
OF all barriers which obstruct the pathway
Of the humblest citizen TO financial and

II was conceived in the womb Of Philan-

and rocked in the cradle Of integrity. II
was trained In the school Of disintsrsstsd

Of American manhood, and won its spurs
in the battle for human liberty By slsying

Hon. T. L. Bond, Salina, Kds.::
DEAR Sri note in the Topeka Capital
than when asked il you had turned popu-
list you replied, "Yes, as far as voting for
Harris is concerned"
/ hope that you and every other loyal
republican in Kansas will withhold your
votes from Morrill, and Blue. They begged
a nomination at the hands Of the republi-
can convention, and promised TO stand
squsrely upon any platform which We
might make.
The convention stood at least three
fourths for silver, and consented 10 the
first half of the money plank because Of
the crazy-quilt platforms then made in
the seven congressional districts; and, in
in the interest Of harmony, We silver men
consented TO the platform as made, with
the distinct understanding that Morrill,
and Blue both known gold bugs would
abide thereby. Thought then, and know
nov, that 1t vas bad policy to make silver

shortly after 1 o'clock this morning, by

summoned to the spot by man who

Copeland borrowed a hook and pole
from u captain OF canal-boat. and

A Eoss wHITEwAsH JOB.

Senator Gray. Of Delaware. has es-
tablished his reputation as the boss of
Senatorial whitewashers.
His committee found that Secretary
Carlisle had privately advised with GER
tain members of the Finance Committee
OF the Senate on the sugar schedule, but
Mr.. Gray pronounces the newspaper
article stating that fnct without
foundation" and declares that the ac-
ton OF the correspondent who made 1t
public calls for SERIOUS Reproduction"
The Sugar bosses before the Commit
tee as witnesses admitted that the Trust
had given money to both Republican
and Democratic political organizations.
but absolutely refused to state the
amounts. Mr.. Gray says there Is no
testimony to show that the sugar
schedule was made to favor the Trust
In consideration OF campaign contribu-
tons.
The Committee found that Mr.. Have
meyer and the other Sugar Trust
monopolists had been in Washington
while the sugar schedule was under dis
cussion, and had consulted with Sena-
tors with the view of influencing legisla-
ton. Mr.. Gray says there is nothing to
show that they used any improper
means to that end.
II being impossible to deny that some
Senators gambled In sugar stocks while
the market was being influenced by
their votes on the schedule, Mr.. Gray
mildly says that some OF them "closed
out their holdings before the voting
began" and assails the character OF the
men who brought some of these specu-
lations to light
Mr.. Gray has mistaken his profession.
He ought to have gone into business as
a boss kalsominer.
