Hon. H. c. F. HAcKBUsH, of this county,
has introduced bill which, if passed, will take
the force out of the prohibitory law The
Labor News enters its emphatic protest against
the mutiation of the present prohibition amend
ment. The chief complaint against the Pop
ulst administration was the enforcement of
this measure, and the people showed by their
large vote for Lieutenant Governor Troutman,
ex-presideht of the State Temperance Society,
that they are in favor of the law. Why should
Populist governor be denounced for not en-
forcing certain law, and Immediately upon the
election of Republican governor, the law be
so amenableas to take all the responsibility from
the new governor? That this is an evasion of
responsibility, and that the radical enemies Of
prohibition regard the present administration as
friendly to them.-Labor News.

The preacher prayed in woeful tone
For the thief in the felon's cell,
And told of his punishment here on earth
And his endless days in hell
But the thief that sat in the best front pew
That he might be seen and heard
Of the Shylock thief of the helpless poor,
The priest never uttered word
And he told of the harlot stepped in sin,
And the rum-seller's awful doom;
And he said if they didn't cease to increase,
He'll would run short of room
But the pirates that have stolen the earth,
And their brothers. blood have she'd
But the parson smiled as heIwinked at them,
And never a word he said
Lord help the preacher, and help the church,
WhenIthe Morning Sun shall rise,
And cast the veil that has hidden the sham
Away from the peoples eyes
And the big thief then, in the best front pew,
And the man with the blood-stained hand,
Shall stand alone in the daylight clear
In sight of all the land.

THE Topeka Journal bears down hard on
Governor Morrill, for appointing "whislxy men"
on the various police boards throughout the
state. The journals exceptions are not we'll
taken. AS ''redeemers" in chief the governor
should be permitted to perform his great work in
his own way. Besides, aren't these whisky men
redeemers, too ? Didn't they whoop it up for
the governor last fall Next thing we'll hear
the Journal finding fault with the governor for
not ignoring the Pete Kline contingent of the
redemption party.-Leavenworth Labor News.

THE Leavenworth Times claims that Gov.
Morrill,, before election, entered into a contract
tract to permit the saloons of that city to re-

permitting everything that can pay license to

to muster the courage to leave go1d-bug party.
''The silver men say they are going our way
that is, a part of the distance. We invite
them into our wagon to ride, but they object
unless we take off the wagon-bed and all ride
on the running-gears, as far as they 60, and
then leave us to 60 back after the wagon-bed.
'But we are told they will organize new
party. They have been telling us that but two
parties could exist. But what if they do or
ganize new party? From whence will they
draw their recruits? From the two old parties
and the political trimmers from the Peoples
party We can we'll afford to contribute our
share of the recruits.
"The Peoples party occupies the same posi-
ton now that the Republican party did in 1858
and 1860. Let it stand solid as the Republican
party did then, and let the other parties split as
they did then, and as they threaten to do now,
and the Peoples party will win in 1896
CAT least we can gain nothing by temporiz-
eve have arrived at critical PERIOD not
only in the history of the party, but in the his
tory of the nation.
"Millions of men are disgusted with the cor
ruption and leadership of the old parties. They
are filled with doubt and despair.
eff there ever was a time that required brave
and honest leadership, that time is now
"The people want no temporizing-no doubt
full expedients or cowardly Sinking of response
bilities. A temporary victory, acquired by
compromises unholy alliance with men who
~, rad
and the spoils divided, would be more ruinous
to us than defeat.
"Let us take no step backward or make any
alliance that will place us in the awkward posi-
ton of defending both Our principles and our
conduct"
Brother Morgan hits the spot, and we hope
those who have been half-inclined to go over
and sit on that little silver plank will heed well
his words of wisdom. The Peoples party can
not afford to abandon its platform and its princ
pies and wander off after false leaders. In no
sense can anything be gained thereby.
This movement of the silverites to organize
new party, built upon one issue alone, is only
scheme to divide the Misunderstanding more,
nothing less. 1t might be the part of wisdom
to select new name for the party that is to
sweep the country in 90, but it will not do to
discard the principles that have won us two
million votes. Instead of cutting our platform
down to one plank, we should add plank or
two in order to unite and solidify the various
reform elements of the country.
At the meeting of the Reform Press Associa-
ton at Kansas City, last week, we were pleased
to see the almost unanimous sentiment against
the one-plank scheme and in favor of the entire
Omaha platform. The Texas and other South
ern editors were especially bitter against the
platform trimmers. They are loyal Populists.
