LEAYE OUT SILVER. ToOq

There seems TO be a fixed determina-
ton on the part of many Republicans to
ignore the questions of prohibition and
equal suffrage in the platform to be
adopted next week.
1t is claimed that this should be done
in Difference to a minority of the party
who are opposed to one of the other or
both. While this idea may be logical as
regards the equal suffrage amendment it
does not apply with equal force to the
prohibition question. There have al
ways been a minority of the party op-
posed to the endorsement of the prohibit
tory law in the platform Little atten-
ton has been paid to them before. What
has caused the sudden development of
SO much consideration for the feelings
and sentiments of the minority? What
does it mean? 1t means effort to
change the Republican party of Kansas
from party of principle to an Organiza-
ton to catch votes. 1t is urged that the
party is divided on these questions and
therefore they should not be made test
of fealty.
So is the party divided on the ques-
ton of silver coinage and by the same
rule nothing should be said about silver
There are few Republicans who do not
approve the Mckinley tariff in its en-
tirety, therefore nothing should be said
about the tariff. In fact there is
no question on which the party
is wholly united, in senti-
ment; hence, according to the views of
certain gentlemen. when followed to
their logical conclusion, there should be
no platform at all Aud if there be no
need of platform why should there be
a party. But they say we can't afford
to carry any isms this year We must
redeem Kansas, and to do that we must
go to the people simply platform of
Republicanism, which they construe to
mean an endorsement of the Minneap-
oils platform, failing to remember, it
seems, that the party experienced a
crushing defeat. not only in the state,
but in the nation when it went before
the country on that same platform.
Republican candidates this year will
be asked by the voters to define their
positions on all these great questions,
prohibition, equal suffrage. silver coin
age. They cannot be answered by point
ing to the platform if the platform is
silent or evasive. The currency plank
in the national declaration of principles
will not satisfy the people this year. 1t
does not say anything and cannot be dis
tinguished from the financial plank in
the Democratic platform by one voter
out of ten. A party of bad principles is
likely to be held in greater esteem than
a party with no principles.

One Vagrant and a Number of Petty MI
demeAnOrs.

One Vagrant and Number of Petty Mis-
demean0rs.
Nate Clayton is the name of a man out
of job. He is glad of it. apparently.
He was arrested last night as a vagrant
and a suspect by Officer Hicks. He was
suspected of being hungry, for his Of
fence consisted of begging the price of
a square meal down on "Smoky Row."
where members of the Epworth league
would not care to tread. Clayton is d
man twenty-nine years old, with the gen
eral aspect of a base ball player out of a
job. He told Judge Ensminger he was
not guilty. This frank statement brought
to Judge Ensminger's mind Governor
dwellings tramp circular. He was
given vindication at the hands of the
court, with a reservation in the form of
request to get out Of town. Clayton
has gone on his way rejoicing.
Three colored boys who answer to the
names of ST Willis, Bill Knight and Pete
Jones, whose combined ages would not
make as many years as Mayor Harrison
has seen, were charged with disturbing
the peace. The disturbance consisted in
being noisy and chewing tobacco, and
otherwise breaking in upon the sanctity
of religious meeting in Tennesseetown.
They were represented by Judge Quin-
ton. Their cases were continued until
next week.
And then came little Albert Taylor, a
colored boy no larger than chocolate
drop and about the same color. He stole
a coat from Arthur Massey. Taylor was
turned over to the state authorities.
A little testimony was taken in the
case of VIM. McMichael, the one-legged
colored man who mixed whisky with his
lemonades and milk shakes, but the case
will be resumed next Wednesday.
