Kansas City, No, July S.-The Third
Ward Warner club held large and
enthusiastic meeting at Music hall last
night. at which the principal speaker
was General Charles H. Grosvenor Of
Ohio
General Grosvenor. speaking of the
money question, said;
Nor will the campaign utterance of
the Democratic party turn the MINDS
of the people from the real issue You
must remember that you cannot have
free and unlimited coinage of silver
except at the hands of the Democratic
party. If you want to debase the com
of the country and smash business,
keen in mind that you must take 1t at
the hands of the Democratic party
You must choose between a Democratic
and a Republican policy. However wise
the convention may be, however com
pIicated or concise the platform there
the issue of the campaign.
If all the states represented by the
boilers Of the St Louis convention go
against US we shall lose Just sixteen
electoral Votes-Only as many as are
possessed by one of the small eastern
states. I sat there in that convention
and when those gentlemen walked out
I said to myself, Thank God, they have
gone That convention marked an
epoch of honesty in the Republican
party. We made a platform of which
we are not aSndAlGu anu WHICH We ~
not have to explain. When the sur
geon finds an unhealthy member, he
cuts it of to save the life of the pa
tient. The Republican party has got
rid of the men who have for so long
been a load and a borden out of all
proportion to their value in the party"
General Grosvenor had just returned
from addressing a Republican conven-
ton at Manhattan and the Republican
league at Topeka. Speaking of Kan
sas politics to a reporter, the general
said
The Republicans are going to carry
Kansas and all they will have to do is
to stand fearlessly for honest money.
Kansas is in no danger. I was led to
suppose that there was trouble in the
Republican camp. After what I heard
and saw at Calderhead's convention at
Manhattan, I am convinced that the
Republican party of Kansas is all right.
I never faced more enthusiastic audi
ence. The convention was satisfied
with the St. Louis platform, and there
is no reason why every Kansas RepUb-
Hcan should not be unless he believes
in the free and unlimited coinage of
silver at q ratio of Is to Il

to.
There has been a studied effort on
the part of some to get me side-traclxed
by running me for congressnan-at
large, and then there is a story out
tnat the st. Louis convention would
nominate me for vice president but
there is nothing in them. So far as
am concerned, 1 am very well satisfied
with the way the fellows in our party
are doing and am willing that COM
