The Terrors of Popnlistism.

The following estimate OF ''Popnlist-
ism is taken from the columns OF the
La Junta Advertiser-Forum Dem y:
"A bout the time the Populist party was
endeaYoring to secure control of the
state government. the paid speakers OF
that party were busy telling the people
how corrupt the Democrat and Repubh-
can parties were. They even went SO
far as 10 open the graves of deceased
statesmen, and from their open months
proclaimed to the world that the bones
of the sleeping statesmen were bones OF
iniquity, covered with the dust OF dis
loyalty and political corruption. These
speakers succeeded in making a certain
class of the Democratic and Republican
parties believe that all that was good
was concentrated in the Populist party
and all that was bad concentrated III
the older parties. All the Populist party
asked of the iaboring man, the me
chanic, and the merchant was the reins
of government. According TO their
theory they would soon make all things
new. The Populist told the poor peo-
pie that the reason why the curtain of
despair hung so heavily over the win
dows OF their cottages, was because the
money power" was against them.
They told them that if they would vote
the Populist ticket, the gloom gather
ing curtains of poverty would be raised
and that in their stead would come the
sunlight OF prosperity and happiness.
The people voted. They voted to make
Populist rule supreme on one hand and
themselves food for the altar of poverty
on the other. This is not all: They
placed herd OF hungry Office seekers
in position to cover their official
couches with quilts of silk and their
own with the gauZy robes of humiliat-
ing reflection. The Pcpulist party was
born in poverty and christened within
the shadows of the altar of unholy poll
tical ambition. Its policy is tainted
with the essence of disappointed hopes
and seasoned with the odor of political
revenge. The chief glory Of the true
Populist is to tear down; not to build
up. The fundamental principles of the
party tend toward disloyaitY and the
ultimate adjustment of the constitu-
ton of the United States. Tue Popu-
| list party is a socialistic party. The
Omaha platform, document priced
higher, by every true Populist, than is
the constitution of the United States.
stands as living witness for socialism.
and foreshadoWs the ultimate ADOPTION
of every plank contained in the plat
! form Of the anarchist faith. The Popu-
list platform contains many commend
able features, but unfortunately for the
party they are largely in the min
GRITTY. The brains of the Populist party
are leaving it as rapidly as ever a
herd of bewildered rats left sinking
ship. Like the prodjgal son they are re-
turning home"
