TOM WATSON.

Some days ago, the daily papers contained
the report that Tom Watson would return
to Kansas this week, and make a number
of speeches throughout the state Some of the
papers said he would ride in special palace
car, paid for by the Republican committee, and
this caused many Democrats and Populists to
denounce him and say many bitter things about
him. We are sorry that any one-especaly a
Populist-should have so poor an opinion of
Tom Watson. If the Republicans furnished
Cor were to furnish) the special car, he did not
know it. Mark Hanna hasn't big enough
slush fund to buy an hour of Tom Watsou's
time in the interest of Mckinley, even if he
needed the money--whicE he don't, for rom is
not poor man
The Republican and many of the Democratic
papers have kept up a constant stream Of slurs,
inuendoes and abuse of Mr.. Watson during the
campaign hoping to create sentiment against
him among the Populists. In some degree
they have succeeded-not in making Populsts
hate or distrust Watson, Tut i'll causing them to
dstrust The leaders of what is known as the
''m;ddle- Of the-load" movement. AS an in
stance of the dirty filings an Mr.. Watson, we
quote the substance of an item in the Topeka
State Journal "Wonder how much Watson
got for having sore throat Is it possible
that the State Journal has become so accus-
toned to doing or saying nothing until there is
Something in sight' that it imag ines every
body else is in the same fix? 1t is such filings
as this that have caused certain Populists to
get up on their ear and swear that Watson
should have set of electors on the state ticket,
and has resulted the selection of such electors.
Those papers can lay the blame of all this dis
satisfaction and trouble at their own DOORS
But, then, Tom Watson is not coming-not
now, anyhow. He has an absess in his throat,
and his doctor tells him he must not speak.
Besides, the national committee has held
meeting in Chicago, in which this matter, with
others, was fully discussed and agreement
reached. The committee declares that nothing
must be dorT to jopardize Bryan's election, and
everything possible will be done to secure his
election. Mr.. Reed, of Georgia. Mr.. Watsons
closest friend, who is a member of the national
committee, attended the meeting at Chicago,
and endorses the action of the committee, as,
also, does Mr.. Watson. Despite the abuse that
has been heaped upon his head by some of the
supporters of Mr.. Bryan, Tom Watson has con-
tinued-to fight all opposition to Bryan-the lies
IF his enemies to the contrary Notwithstanding
rom Watson is loyal to his country as well
Is to his party, and will do nothing to aid

FREE SILVER MEETINGS.


Kansas City, addressed large audience at the
opera house. rhe house was filled to its ut
most capacity, many standing. Mr.. King is a
fluent speaker, and one of the best-informed
men in the country. His was one of the best
speeches of the campaign, and it was highly
satisfactory to our people.
Wednesday evening, Senator Leedy, our
nominee for governor, spoke to the largest audi
ence that has gathered in the opera house this
campaign The house was "brim-full," and
many had to go away because they were unable
to get in.
Senator Leedy is not an orator. He is sim
ply plain matterof-fact mana farmer by
profession and practice. He has homey
views, and he expresses them in honey, but
very impressive manner He proves to the peo-
pie by his manner, that he is master of the
situation that he knows just what he is talk
ing about that he is honest and means every
warm friends here.
Splendid music was furnished by the ladies'
and gentlemens gee clubs.
The torcll-light professions were fine.
Senator I,ecdy visited silver headquarters,
and said he had hot seen 50 Ills headquarters
anywhere in his travels over the state.
~
On Thursday night, colored man by the
name of Gibbs, of Kansas City, spoke to good
audience. bur are sorry TO say that some OF
the people of his own race did not show him
the respect that was due hun. Mr.. Gibbs is
state secretary Of the colored mems silver
clubs. He is an intelligent well-informed
man, and has a good command of language.
He made good speech, and it was we'll receiv-
ed It abounded in wit and story, and every
little story had a sharp point to it.

M. w. WILKINS, editor of the New Charter,
of San Jose CAL, has been arrested and thrown
in Jail at Los Angeles for making socalistic
speech. Mr.. Wilkins was at one time con-
nected with the Nonconformist and for short
time with the AGITAToR, and is we'll known
by reformers all over the country. He is a
brave fearless, true reformer, and such treat
lnent will not battle him, but will only make
him stronger and firmer in the faith. We offer
MIN our hearty congratulations.

Hanna, Mckinley, Cleveland & Co.

Right here we want to say word about
remark made by Judge King, Tuesday night.
Speaking of the new electoral ticket, he warned
the people to ''not let HIM fool YOU" meaning
"not let THEM fool YOU" Judge King is
friend of Tom Watson, and will place a cross
at the left of his name on election day. And
that is what every Populist should do.

A FEW days ago, the Republicans were max
ing a great hurrah over the report that A. R.
Talbot, Bayan's law partner, mad said he would
not support Bryan. Mr. Talbot, emphatically
denies the report, thus puncuring another Re-
publican campaign lie.

HERE'S RICHNESS FOR YOU!



Voice Of the 9Th inst:
CANT ON, OHIO, Oct. 3.-Major William Nc
Kiney divides time with Balzer's beer saloon,
two blocks away, i'll entertaining Republican
pilgrims who ride OH syndicate free trains to
worship at his shrine and fill up on Balzer's
beer. Balzer evidently has the big end of the
game as he requires five bars and thirty bar
tenders to supply the enormous demand for his
goods.
The carnival of drunkenness still continues
Every day is a carouse Hundreds of people
come into the city daily, and upon some days
the number reaches into the thousands. Many
of them are intoxicated when they reach the
city. short time ago, a special train bearing
a delegation to Homestead had to be stopped
to take policemen to quell the riot by the
drunken crowd in the cars.
Last Saturday was another "big day. here,
and the scenes of debauchcry on the public
streets beggar description One Of the Pitts
burg crowd fell off the cars going hone, and
was killed. The delegation from Etna, Pa.
came with pockets we'll filled with bottles of
whisky of a new brand. A Voice reporter
picked up the empty bottle after three of the
crowd had emptied it into their Threats at the
depot The flask bore large picture of Nc
Kinley, with the inscription HOUR CHOICE"
under the likeness.
Arrests for drunkenness are increasing alarm
ngly. Although the police make no attempt
to arrest the ordinary plain drunk found with
the visitors, yet the record of arrests is leaping
up, up, UP.
The arrests for drunkenness have increased
nearly three fold from March to September, and
yet the law was much more strictly enforced in
March than during the last few months, when
there were so many visitors here.
SPRINGFIELD, OHIO, Oct. 5.-Clark county
Republicans visited Mckinley at Canton last
Thursday. Grand Old Party sympathy for
temperance took day off for this occasion. A
brass band, cheap rates and free lunches were
attractions. Everybody was urged to turn out
and join the pilgrimage. The train consisted
of seven cars Conveniently located i'll the
middle was the baggage carr which was
practically transformed into a bar-room. In
this car were fourteen kegs of beer, mostly do
mated by the local agents of the English syndi-
cate brewerics. In addition, it is reliably esti
mated that there were ten gallons Of whisky.
There we're also numerous cases Of bottled beer,
500 sandwiches, brandy cigars and full
assortment of similar goods. Two uniformed
attendants from the Arcade hotel bar did the
honors at the faucets. The scenes Of debauch
cry were revolving, and disguised the decent
men who were aboard. At Springfield depot
when the excursion pulled in, the men
rolled off and carried home like logs.

report of an excursion to Canton in which

tobacco and a "lttle brown Jug" This was

SELECTED BY MORRIS UNION
AS Burdette Puts 1t.

Bob Burdette gives this simple recipe:
"My homeless friend with the chromat-
ic nose, while you are stirring up the
sugar in a ten-cent glass of gin, let me
give YOU fact to wash down with 1t.
You may say you have longed for years
for the free, independent life of farm
er, but you have never been able to get
money enough to buy farm. But there
is where you are mistaken, For some
years you have been drinking good,
improved farm at the rate of 100 square
feet at gulp. If you doubt this state
ment, figure it out for yourself. An
acre of land contains 43, $50 square feet.
Estimating, for convenience, the land
at $43 56 an acre, you will see that it
brings the land to just one mill per
square foot Now, pour down the fiery
dose, and imagine you are swallowing
a strawberry patch. Call in five OF
your friends and have them help you
gulp down that garden of 500 square
feet. Get on Il prolonged spree some
day, and see how long it will take to
swallow pasture land to feed COW,
Put down that glass of gin; there is dirt
in it-100 square feet Of good, rich dirt,
worth SAB sc per acre.

Bitter Jerrold.

Among the sayings attributed to
Douglas Jerrold is very bitter one
he applied to Mark Lemon, then edi-
tor of Punch. Lemon was deeply at
tached to Dickens and showed it in
a very open fashion, which perhaps
aroused the great satirist's jealousy
At all events, as Jerrold was walk
ing out one day with Lemon and an
other friend, and Dickens with sew
eral more behind them, Lemon sud
denly dropped away and turned
back. What has become of Punoh?"
asked Jerrold's companion. Did
you not hear Dickens whistler" was
the cynical reply. Dickens pays the
dog tax for Lemon.
