The Populist Convention

The populists held their state con-
vention at Hutchinson yesterday and
selected delegates to st. Louis
Messrs. Lewelling, Breidenthal, Dos
ter and Harris were chosen as dele
gates at large. The committee on
resolutions presented the following:
"Reafirming our faith in the peo-
PIES party and its principles, we in.
vite the alliance aud cooperation of
all reform elements of the state and
nation to the end that o union of all
voters may be formed Of all who OPP
pose the gold standard and the Euro
pean level of prices We call the at
tention Of the American people to the
fact proven by many trials that chang
ing from one old party to the other
has brought no relief from burdens
under which the people are stru6.
CLING, but that on the contrary condi-
tons have constantly grown worse,
and we ask all lovers of their country
to unite with us in an honest and
earnest effort for relief.
"First-We are in favor of the
stricest honesty and economy in the
administration of the government,
both state and national.
"Second-We are in favor of the
overthrow and destruction of all mon
..opolies and combines organized for
the plumber and oppression of the PEG.

The Topeka Capital in spologlzing
for the failure Of the late republican
state convention to resolve for any
thing says:
1T is too bad that the Wichita con-
ventlou couldn't please everybody, but
humanity is imperfect and there are
Objectionable features in everything
poor, erring humanity does The OBJ
jectionable thing about the Wichita
convention to the populists was the
harmony that prevailed. Already
several organs of the enemy have &C.
cused the convention of cowardice on
the money question. But it 10 con-
soliDg thought that the convention
could not have pleased the enemy by
any action on the money question.
II resolutions had been adopted de-
claring for gold standard the pops
would have accused the convention of
being dictated to and dominated by
Wall street. If it had declared for
gold, silver and paper and the parity
Of all dollars on the present standard
of dollar, they would have called it
a straddle. If free silver coinage at
16 to l had been adopted, the organs
of the enemy would have said that it
was not in good faith, but merely a
trap to catch pops and democrats.
The convention said nothing on the
money question because the purposes
it met for had nothing to do with that
matter"
When the leading republican daily
in the state makes the lame expIana-
ton shown above, it does look as
though we "pops" had them on the
run. The Ohio convention did not
wait for wise and patriotic inter-
change of views" but went right on
with the order of business. The Ohio
platform will probably be adopted by
the republican national convention.
