4 STUDY OF THE RESULT.
An Open Letter to o. T. BOaz, Esq, Pitts
burg, Kaa; John FOnta, Esq, GiraFd,
Kas; DR.. J. n. MahF, McCune, KGs.

1 have followed in my attempts to locate
the greatest cause Of present troubles
and 10 discuss essential remedial meas
ures; and / send you an article OF mine
recently published in the ADVOCATE that
think will interest you, il you had not
seen it. If you had and do not care to
keep this, please return it, that may
use it elsewhere.
Since the election I have tried TO
study cnt what defeated Bryan; whether
the same forces can muster enough re-
cruits to win the contest in 1900 in q
struggle on the some lines; and whether
it is good craftsmanship or good sense TO
let the three organizations Of loyalty and
liberty that went down to defeat with
him, drift and thump along on the surg
ing current; or whether a guided evolu-
tion and reorganization Of these forces
is possible, to increase the chances Of
winning in that contest, which il we
lose, will be the last one under our pres
ent constitution.
/ would like to compare notes with you
ON these points. II might be good policy
to discuss the situation from the stand
point Of patriots and not Rs psrtisans in
our clubs. There ia no part Of the ma
tion better qualified by AntsCedents, by
philosophical Investigations, and by con-
tact with the unrelenting, unscrupulous
and despotic forces that are undermining
the foundations Of the republic, than
tho people Of Kansas to review the
situation to study the position into
which defeat has driven US and to devise
new lines Of defense and more connected
plans of attack; and no communities in
Kansas are better qualified Cor this work
than those of Crawford county,
Bryan was not defeated by the unaided
forces OF q gold standard. A large
division Of the silver forces we're induced
or intimidated into voting against him.
That fact cost him Che votes OF Illinois,
Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota,
Oregon and Washington at last.
Now We should decide what assurances
can be given, and what movements made
to silence their batteries Of intimidation
and spike the guns Of their sOphiStries,
that will call from their lines the divi-
AiOns Of prejudiced conservatives that
belong with us and whose vote defeated
their friend and our leader-Mr. Bryan
Plutocraoy 10 in the saddle for another
four yeara It will continue to despOil
the masses-to reap whore it has moi
sowed-to us its enlarged opportunities
with despotic pertinAcity, and 10 add e

ceiYed as evidence, to accept the false
and reject the true. Under the same
conditions the struggle OF 1900 will be
only q repetition Of that Of 1896. Corrup-
tion intimidation and deception viii as
certainly control it as they have the last,
and the republic will 60 down before
the then irresistible and conqueEing
march OF the millionaire anarchists.
There is but one possible escape from
this result. It is by making the issue of
1900 so plain and simple; their assurances
Of relief so real and positive, and showing
the purpose Of the forces supporting
them 80 sincere and patriotic, tbGt he
aOhO runs mag read. Anything less
viii only involve wasted effort, and call
for useless work, and bring renewed dis
appointment.
A readjustment that will carry relief
to the common people and justice to the
oppressed is coming. The figures /
give in "The Conquering March of
Capita" do not simply show this, they
prove it. The fact that the 1000 rich
people had less than 76 per cent. Of the
CountEy's wealth in 1880 and now have
98 per cent. while the 100000 other
people in 1880 had $15,8OO,OOO,00O, or "A
per cent. and Che 100000 have but
%, S74, ,OOO,0 O,0O0-19 per cent; the fact the
massas have lost 1000 million dollars Of
their capital in addition to all of their
share Of the profits from their industry
in the past six years, is incontrovertible
evidence Of this impending readJustment.
The vast piles Of the nations treasures
stored in the vaults and concentrated in
the securities OF the few, represent the
efforts and savings Of the multitude.
They are the booty Of thousand forays
Of the pirate chiefs. If undisturbed the
Cormorsnts that have swallowed these
vast sums in the past six years, will
swallow more in the next six; but it is
too unreasonable to suppose they will be
undisturbed. Some process Of read
instment is inevitable.
From these facts and conditions will
come the issues OF the next campaign,
and not from any question Of coinage.
And in she work Of mapping out policy
and remodeling the platform to enlist
the confidence and command the sup
port Of the masses, Kansas and especially
Crawford county, should be at the front,
giving their best efforts in perfeOting an
assimilation Of the allied forces Of the
last campaign into one compact and hRr-
moniOus organization, for the next.

Stat Insane Asylum Sensation.

One of the most sensational state
scandals that has ever outraged the
pages Of Vermont history developed
last week when the Washington coun.
ty grand jury brought in an indict-
ment containing five counts against
DIR. W. IL. Giddings, superintendent
OF the Vermont State asylum for the
insane at Waterbury. The counts are
all for assault, but this technical term
covers great deal OF ground. The
grand jury has had the Giddings case
under consideration for many davs.
All of the five counts in the indict-
ment are worded alike. except that i'm
each one the name of the victim is
different and the actual nature OF the
offence differs in each instance. The
unfortunates whom it j. alleged DR..
Giddings abused most shamefully are
all women. Their names are Emma
l1oyt, Lucy Williams, Hattie Lackev.
Grace Wright and Emma Strickland.
DR. Giddings is charged with strip
ping naked the Hoyt agd Williams
women and locking them up in a room
without furniture or covering of anv
kind and leaving them there to endure
the chill air OF the night. Ii is claimed
that these barbarities occurred during
the last year. The other three women

the women with his fists when i'm mo-

Before that time he was a practicing
physician in the village of Bakersfield.
The appointment was made by the
trustees of the institution. who are

DR. w. \. Plat of Shoreham and ex-
Mayor George w. Wing Of Montpel-
Ter. DR. Giddings was brought into
the county court and Judge Taft fixed
his bail at II, 500, which is considered
NOMINAL. Bail was furnished bv two
OF the trustees-Judgc lIobson and

they do not believe the stories told re-

Collector Smalley at Burlington has
been instructed by the treasury de-
partment TO permit the passage OF Ca

through Island Pond and Beechers'

the regulations enforced by the de-
partment.
The few cases OF measles which APP

The board OF library commissioners
of Vermont have just issued their first
annual report, which will be found
worthy OF some attention. The chief
purpose of the report is to direct the
attention of the citizens of the state to
the library act of 1894, that those in
tercsted in such matters may be pre-
pared to take advantage of its proyi-
sions whenever the general interest in
the establishment Of free library in
any town seems TO warrant any such
action. The report contains the act
OF 1894, with various explanations,
suggestions for the organization of
public libraries and their manage
ment and tabulated report OF libra
ries in the state. The latter contains
the name and location of each library,
date of establishment, name of libra
rian, number volumes, dues, and other
interesting data. The report further
contains an article on the selection
and purchase OF books and concludes
with a sketch Of some of the larger
libraries of Vermont. with illustra-
tions. The report says that under the
law 80 towns have established libra
ries and received books from the state.
A few other towns have moved in the
but without getting TO the
point of receiving books.
