CONGRESSMAN MILLER TIRED.

Congressman o. L. Miller, of the
Second Kansas district, is tired. On
being asked recently If he would ex-
pect denomination he replied:
"'Not at all. l don't like the city.
/ don't like the climate, and l do not
like the way they do business here. l
can do more work in one day in Kan
sas than | can do here In q week. do
not like the method of doing business
in the national Legislature, or rather
of not doing 1t. l came here to work,
but the rules of the House are so con-
structed that am not able to accom-
plish anything"
The above brings ViVidly to mind
the fact that the chief objection to the
Populist Congressman has been that
they "did not accomplish anything"
and Republican papers never get tired
of calling attention to the things
they fall to do. Perhaps Con
gresham Miller will explain how
man who does not fall in
with the ringsters In Congress and help
them along with their reprehensible
schemes is prevented from doing much.
Still, it's a good plan to have few
Populists in Congress, just to watch
the thieves, If nothing else.

tice, equity, prosperity and happiness

Senator Berry, January 20: 81 say
that the laws Of this country raise am
pie revenue TO run the government IL
it were run in an economical way; but
extravaganza after extravaganza has
grown up, and every man who has
dared to stand and raise his voice here
because he believed it was his duty to
the people he represented has been de-
nounced as a demsgogne and even
worse by the parties whose interests
were affected by the appropriation to
which he objected"
For years there have been about ten
privileged" committees in the lower
house Of Congress. Among this num-
ber was the Committee on Banking and
Currency. A privileged committee Is
one which may report measures at any
time and secure the immediate atten-
tion of the body. Bills reported from
other committees 90 to the calendar
and are very apt to get lost In the
shuttle. This Republican Congress has
stricken the Banking and Currency
committee from this list, thereby indl.
eating that they expect to pass no bank
ing or currency legislation.

Death Of Thomas N. Ewing.

Gen. Thomas M. Ewing, first Chief
Justice Of the State OF Kansas, organ
izer. and commander of the Eleventh
Kansas regiment in the Civil war,
and sfterwsrd Congressman from Ohio,
died in New York city January q from
the effect Of an injury received in a col
lision with q cable car.
Gen. Ewing was remarkable charac-
ter. He was born at Lancaster, o., in
1929, and came to Lesvenworth in 1856
to practice law. When Kansas was ad-
mitted as State he was elected Chief
Justice, and resigned that Office in 1862
to take command Of the Eleventh Kansas
regiment. During the war he attained
the rank of Brigadier General, and had
command Of the Department of the
Missouri. After the war he was for sew
eral years in the Secretary Of the Int
rior's Office, and in 1870 returned to Ohio
to live. From 1877 to 1881 he repre-
sented an Ohio district in Congress, but
as q Democratic nominee for Governor
he was defeated in 1879. He was one Of
the Democratic leaders, along with Thur
man, Allen, Carey and others when that
party in Ohio adopted the greenback
idea, and he has always been a pro-
nounced advocate Of free silver. Gen.
Ewing had made New York his home
since 1882, and was still active in the
practice Of law when the accident befell
him.

Don't Like the One Plank Plan.

EDITOR ADvOoATE:-PriVate mo-
nopoly is the great enemy of industrial
freedom. Land monopoly has robbed
more than one-half Of our people Of
home and appropriated the natural
stores Of mine and forest. Transpor.
tstion monopoly has destroyed cOmpe.
titiOn In transportation, end can and
does impose ss high o tariff as the
traffic will bear. Money monopoly has
invaded the whole commercial field
and lays tax on the exchanges Of q
nation. The natural resources of our
country having been appropriated by
private monopoly, labor cannot employ
itself and must serve at less than a
living wage. In the presence Of these
faCts-in the presence Of these gigsn-
tic yet growing evils, Walter N. Allen
proposes as q remedy the free coinage
OF silver at l6 to /, the repeal of the
exception clause in the Bland Allison
act Of 1878, and the speedy payment Of
the national debt. Is salvation to be
obtained by such "hocus pocusp"
That Mr.. Allen is not the Moses for
whom we are looking Is evident. II
ne has any conception Of the gravity
of our industrial situation he does not
show it. Mr.. Aliens appeal is to poll
ticians and not to the producing
masses, and while we listen to such
appeals we need not hope for q union

reasons why the laborers Of the East,
and especially Of the great cities, look
upon the Peoples party with dlstruSt

REPUBLICAN FIRST, LAST AND ALL THE
TINE.

The officers of the Kansas State Tenn
persnce Union are indusrrously stirring
about issuing circulars, presumably to
see If they can get the dilapidated re-
mains of the Republican party Of Kan
sss in shape to be presentsble for the
next campaign.
These temperance organizations are
good thing in their way, but they
keep people s-wondering all the time
why they don't be little more consist
ent. This particular one might be all
right if 1t could once succeed In elect.
ing officers who would not consider it
their duty to act as an auxiliary to the
Republican party and as q stumbling
block to every other kind of reform.
They had no encouragement to offer q
Populist administration, but have
shown the most religious leniency for
the aggregation Of imbeciles and hypo-
critics now in charge of affairs.
Lately, however, they have shown
some disspproVal Of present conditions,
by circulating E. W. Hoch'S TRADE
against Governor Morrill,. But that is
more in condemnation of Morrill's sug-
gestion that the liquor laws be changed,
than of the Governors brazen disre-
gard of the laws we have. These Tenn
perance Union officers do not tell their
people officially and openly what every
one Of them ought to know, that Nor

off and let the people of certain locali-
ties manage the saloons to suit them
selves. Perhaps they think the lay
members of the Union would not be,
lleve it anyhow, having developed such
sanctimonious regard for Morrill, and
his crowd. But we may be sure that
the State Temperance Uuion will, un-
less a wonderful change comes over it,
stand ready to nag and annoy the Pop.

A DREAM THAT MAY BE REALIZED.

Suppose this government had
adopted plan by which money could
be raised on nOn-interest bonds, to be
used in paying for public work
country roads, bridges, court houses,
township halls, city streets, etc. There
is no reason why such system should
not be adopted, except that it would
destroy the occupation of the usurers
and bond brokers. Just think of the
result! Instead of millions of idle
men complaining Of the hard times
and living on air, water and short rs-
tiOns, we might have q nation of busy
and happy people. Everybody that
wanted to would be earning money,
and would be paying cash for their
meat, wheat, corn, vegetables, eggs,
butter, dry goods and shoes, and still
save some money for old sge. Every
kind of legitimate business would be
profitable, and the country would be
growing weather. and more beautiful
every day, by reason Of the improve
ments being made. Even government
railroads might be built and river and
hsrbor improvements made by this
plan, and without making a burden
for anybody.
This may be UtOplsn dream, but
practical men-those who have made
success Of their private business
pronounce it practical. It Is not one
of the communistiC propositions whose
success depends on the honesty, the
unselfshness and goodness of all the
people to be governed by it. A simple
act of Congress would make it possible
to test this plan without q particle of
danger to our cherished institutions.
But we need not expect such an act as
long as majority Of our Congressman
are more interested In speculative
schemes than in the future welfare Of
the country. And we will always have
a majority of such men in Congress
until we learn to elect them for an
other purpose than to make windy
speeches on dead issues.
Give the industrial classes chance
to earn a comfortable living without
paying tribute in the shape of interest |
and rent to the idle non producers,
and you have gone long way toward
solving the social problem.
The advocate., 1896-01-29

The result of the silver conference
held in Washington last week lends q
great deal of encouragement to the re.
form forces. Many Of these silver sd-
vocstes are undoubtedly in earnest,
and If they are half as intelligent as
they are earnest they will see during
the six months intervening between
now and the two great conventions
that the Peoples party is the only or
ganized effort toward financial reform.
The great work for Popullsts to do be-
tween now and then is to help educate
the silver men.
