A CARD FROM "POPULIST'
In Reference to the Article in Yesterdays Age <HeraId as to Captain Kolb and the
 Committee.
To the Age-Herald:

To the Age-Herald:
 It is only to inaccuracies of general interest that I propose to reply, found in the interview of prominent pop ulite' of this (Monday) morning with your reporter. The error being mani fest, the correction becomes due.
 There never has been moment of rivalry between State Senator Goodwin and Hon. R. F. Kolb for office. and if the senator is now candidate or probable candidate for governor the fact still applies. The Age-Herald and other papers published last October notice Of a speech made by Kolb at Blount Springs. declaring his purpose not again to become a candidate for governor. Recently the Montgomery Journal pub lished a widely advertised interview with him, declaring he was not and would not become a candidate for governor It is "a common remark of his, to callers at his office, I am assured that he will not stand for that office again.
 It is also not correct to say there will be any contest made by Kolb before the executive committee, soon to meet here, for any preference of himself by that committee. POPULIST.
 As the. article in Yesterdays Age Her aid did not state there was any rivalry between Captain Kolb and State Sen ator Goodwyn, that part of "Populist's" card is passed.
 The gentleman interviewed by the Age Herald reporter occupies a prominent po- sition in his party and therefore has the opportunity of knowing what Is transpir- ing within the inner circle. Whether

Whose Fault Was 1t9

We have not heard any person APP
prove of Lord Challinor's report on
the Kansas University. Why such an
unwarranted and malicious report was
made, no one claims to know. It 10
reported that Governor Morrill, denies
all responsibility for the report or its
publication. Whose fault was lt2
What motive lies behind a document
written by public officer, the only
effect Of which is to cast a shadow
upon the University and iniure the
good name of Kansas.
Mr.. ChallInor boasts in an exultant
way, we are told, that he did not
make the report as bad as he might
haqe done, The inference IS that
Challinor was acting under orders to
smIrch the University, If so, whose
orders? He is the direct agent of the
Governor under the law creating that
Office for the benefit of subject of
Great Britain. MIR. Morrill, says his
skirts are clean in the matter Of the
Ohallinor report Then who was
Governor Of Kansas that day. Was
il the henchman of a UNCONVENTIONAL
school which regards the Kansas
State University as its enemy? The
report was the impersonation Of per-
sonal spleen and political impudence.
Whose fault was it?-Champion.
And yet when Mr.. Challinor went
out side of his duties in making his
report upon popullst officials every
republican paper applauded. In those
reports Mr.. Challinor commented upon
the management of state institutions,
now when he touches up the univer-
slty, and wrongfully too, these same
papers see the same faults in his re-
ports that the populists complained Of

That will make them sick and willing

More Bonds.

The Washington Post, upon sssur-
ances that are of undeniable authority
printed yesterday this editorial state
ment with respect to the condition of
the treasury;
Whatever the syndicate may have
done in the past, or may continue to
do in the future, we have the best of
reason for believing that the admins
trahon will not under any circum-
stances permit the national credit to
be imperiled or impaired. So long
as, from any cause, the gold reserve
in the treasury remains in satisfac-
tory condition, we'll and good. But
the American people may be sure that
under no circumstances will that re-
serve be permitted to dwindle beyond
the point of safety. No matter what
timid alarmists may say or fear to the
contrary, the government will protect
the treasury and MAINTAIN Insolvency
at any and every cost. Syndicates
may or may not restore the god
drawn out by schemers and specula-
tors, or claimed in the way Of legiti-
mate and reputable business. Con-
gress may or may not relieve the sit
uation by intelligent and patriotic
legislation. But whatever happens
the present administration will meet
its responsibility in the premises and
will keep the national credit safe, the
national honor intact. The gold sup
ply will be recruited, il necessary, to
the extent Of 500 million dollars or, il
occasion demands and prudence war
rants, to an even greater extent. But
it will be recruited, and it will be pre-
served to the end Of the chapter.
Some day congress will rise to the
level of its duty and lift this perilous
and shameful burden from the ma
tion's shoulders. Until then the adj
ministratlon will stand between the
people and their recreant creatures at
the capitol. There need be no appre-
hension IN financial quarters, no fool
ish flight from fancied catastrophe.
The credit Of the United States is in
no danger whatever and no danger
will be suffered to approach it.
