ing report.
Chairman Taubeneck was present as
locker on, but took no part. He had
never seen q Kansas Populist c0nven.
tlon, and was very much pleased with
this one.
The Populist party may be made up
of the rsg-tsg and bob-tsil of the uni.
verse, but nine delegates representing
two counties are worth over one-half
million dollars.
j. H. Mcdowell. Tennessee mem
Der of the National committee, who
was In the West on land business,
dropped in to. see how the Northern
boys did things. He was pleased.
The Sixth district de egstes preserved
that districts excellent reputation by
agreeing in caucus on line Of action
and always knowing just what they
wanted to do when the time came to
act.
The untiring efforts of Chairman
Breidenthsl and Secretary Semple to
make the con Vention a success were
fully appreciated. The convention
honored itself and the party by so unsn-
imously showing its appreciation Of
Breidenthal's untiring efforts for party
success. A very large number Of Pop
ulists would have been glad to hsVe
seen Mr.. Semple similarly honOred.
The State conventions Of the Popu-
lists of Kansas have become so well
known as gatherings Of the best and
strongest men In the State that the
most important cities engage In q
friendly rivalry for their location In
their midst. The committee should be
congratulated on selecting Hutchinson
for the late convention. The people
treated the delegates we'll. The news
papers accorded them splendid treat
ment. The Neo0S, one of the leading
Republican papers of southwest Kan
sss, gave especially fair reports of the
proceedings.

Convention Notes.
It did so.

Ex.Speaker Dunsmore was pleasantly
greeted and enjoyed a reunion with the
delegates.
The delegation sent to st. Louis is
the strongest ever selected by any party
to represent the State in any conVen-
tiOn.

No Populist need be afraid that the
Kansas delegation to st. Louis will be-
tray the party or permit compromise
Of principle.
DIR. Pitcher gave the lie to Dawes
talk that he was to be run out of the
State by putting In an appearance and
enjoying the love feast.
One of the most plain, unassuming
and spproschsble gentlemen present
was George M. Munger, the wealthy
Populist from Greenwood county.
Senator Leedy, whose name is being
mentioned freely In connection with
the nomination for Governor, was pres
ent and made an agreeable impression.
Ex-Governor Lewelling IVES one
whom the delegates seemed glad to see.
He took lively interest in the conVen-

This is only a sample Of his powerful

on to Washington city to demand employment
Of the national government. The Au-
thorities Of the District, on the alert for some
excuse, found the leaders Of the army on the

and Carl Browne were arrested for trespassing
and were convicted and Imprisoned.
Between the lines can be read the

The Committee on Resolutions then
submitted It's report. 1t was as follows:
Reafirming our faith In the Peoples party
and It's principles, we invite the alliance and
cooperation OF all reform elements OF the
State and nation, to the end that union OF
all voters may be formed to oppose the gold
standard and the European level OF prl 'es.
We call the attention OF the American people
to the fact, proved by many trials, that change
from one party to the other has brought no
relief from the burdens under which the peo-
pie are struggling but that On the contrary
conditions have constantly grown worse: and
we ask All lovers OF their country to unite
with hn honest and earnest effort for relief

trsTy to the spirit Of our constitution.
Thereport was unanimously adopted.
AS it was after 6 o'clock, and the con.
vention did not desire to have an even
ing session, some resolution which
would otherwise have been introduced
were withheld. The resolutions are
not as radical as some would have de-
sired, but they met with satisfactory
approval by the vast majority of the
convention. Several motions relating
to various things were made, but the
convention was ready to adjourn and
1t did so.

AN rvent in Potato HISTORY.

Attention is called to the fact that the
potato will celebrate the 3GOth ami
versary of its introduction into Eng
land this year. twas in 1896 that Sir
SValter Raleigh returned to England
from America with the first tobacco
and potatoes, which originally grew i'll
Peru. Although the potato, it is esti-
mated, now furnishes one-siXth Of the
nourishnent of the human race, for a
long time it was del;caey for the rich
alone. Even at the beginning of the
18th century noblemen paid two shil-
lings a pound for potatoes and seasoned
them with sherry. People often visit
ed the gardens of the botanist Gerard,
at Holborn, TO see the plants in bloom.
There is talk of celebration in honor
OF the anniversary.
