Middie-of-the-Rosd Popuiists in Kansas
VIII Put Up Watson Electors.
lola, Kan, Sept 12.-Chairman Brei-
denthal yesterday made a suggestion
to Thomas E. Watson and his mana
ger, Mr.. Reed. which may result in the
solution of the problem about the flu,
sion arrangement in Kansas 1t was
that the whole matter he referred to
the democratic and populist national
executive committees. Both Mr.. Wat
son and Mr.. Reed promised to think 10
over. However, Mr.. Watson de-
clined to change the tone off his
speeches in this state, and declared
his intention of continuing to plead
his cause before the people. With Q
view of forcing change in the per
sonnet of the fusion electoral ticket the
middle-of-the-road men propose &c
nominate set of Bryan and Watson
electors by petition. This was agreed
upon yesterday by Abe Steinbergei
and ]. f. Willis, who have assumed
the management of the middle-of-the-
road movement Steinberger says that
the proposed electors have not yet
been named, but he hopes to have the
petition ready to be filed by the 25th.

WOULD HELP CHINA.

Ii Hung Chang Says Free Coinage Here
Would Benefit Silver Nations.
BANFF, n. w. T., Sept. IA DR..
Horsey, the representative of the Cana
dian government, had a long inter
view with Ii Hung Chang while en-
route here. In discussing financial
affairs, the viceroy asked many ques-
tions. and in turn. was asked for his
opinion on the silver question in the
United States. He replied: MY opin'
ion is, no doubt, different from yours,
because 1 look at it from Chinese
standpoint If a silver president Is
elected in the United States, it will
benefit China, in that it will enhance
the value of Chinese silver money, and
in like manner, of course, it will ben
eft all the great silver nations"
do you think" he was asked. that
the election of silver president would
make silver dollar worth as much as
a gold dollar?''
''No; but it would make it more
valuable than it is now"

CHICAGO, Sept 12-Chairman Hanna
was asked yesterday wha. would
be done about the petition now circu-
lating among organized labor request
ing Messrs. Mckinley and Bryan to
meet in this city in joint debate. Mr..
Hanna said:
Mr.. Mckinley is not going to take the stump
The democrats would undoubtedly like very
much TO see him chasing over the country in a
wild scramble for votes. as Mr.. Bryan has In
sisted upon doing. Mr.. Mckinley will con-
tinue to conduct himself as man who APP
preciateS the dignity and Importance of the
position he seeks He will not lend himself to
any catch-penny schemes for the sake Of satls-
flying the curious making himself talked

PROSPERITY AND usuRx.
Ground of the Struggle between the Two
Parties.


Parties.
The Public Ledger quotes Mr.. Nc
Kinley as follows: mo matter what
kind of money we have, we cannot get
it unless we have work. Whether it is
poor money or whether it is good
money, whether it is gold orswhether it
is silver, we cannot get one dollar of it
unless we have employment for our
hands and heads
How about issuing watered stock by
the ton in Wall street?
How about the ''unearned mere
ment," as it is called, of the Aston real
estate in the city of New York?
How about the railway that takes adj
vantage of it's monopoly to gouge the
public, out of fares ten times as high as
other roads charge for the same sery-
ice?
How about the stock and the produce
gamblers who get corner on wheat
or something else, and sweat their vic
tins out of untold millions?
Possibly Mr.. Mckinley considers all
these and a thousand other ways OF
plundering the public-all of which, by
the way, should rightly go to the pro-
ducers who make such values possible
as a reward for the employment OF
their heads
But aside from Mr.. McKin1ey's loose
way of talking. the Ledger printed it to
offset Mr.. Bryan's attitude, that free
silver will help the American workman
The Ledger adds that if Mr.. Bryan were
correct, there would be no opposition
from intelligent people to substitute

Good Work by the Fire Lnddies.

Again today the local fire department
demonstrated its value and efficiency.
confagration started In a section of the
city peculiarly favorable to the spread Of
the flames and the winds were so high that
for time 1t was feared that the entire
water front, with the enormous values
there accumulated, would be swept and de-
stroyed. The conditions were all against
the f1re-fighters. The gale swept the flames
directly toward a mass of the most infiam-
mable material. and at the same time 1t
made it impossible to direct the streams
from the hose effectively into the raging
fire. The peril was imminent, and the fire.
men were forced to take the most daring
risks. Had there been a fire tug on the
river to supplement the efforts of the men
on the shore the task would have been much
easier. and the fire would perhaps have been
confined to narrower limits. But Congress
has always refused to appropriate for such
a craft, and the fire department has never
been able. in consequence, to resist river
front CONGREGATIONS in an adequate manner
This morning the men were fortunate in
being able to get line Of hose through
building. already Quilted, on the extreme
edge Of the river, and so managed to direct
a stream with the wind against a pile of
blazing wood, that threatened every mo-
ment to send the con1agration down the
wharves. The members of the department
are entitled to the hearty thanks of the
community for their brave, efficient work
but 1t is not fair for Congress to take ad-
vantage of the excellence of the service to
parsimoniously refuse to appropriate from

Withdraw Minister Willis.

II Minister Willis has cast a slur upon
the national and international standing of
the government to which he Is accredited
by refusing to recognize the Hawaiian In
dependence Day he has insulted not alone
Hawaii but the people of the United States.
VINO have sympathlZed with and sus tanned
the present Hawaiian government and COM
PEELED the President to recognize 1t as a
member Of the family of nations. ANY ac-
ton by Mr.. Willis in the line Of Mr.. Cleve-
lands former pro-monarchical Hawaiian
policy which has been discredited by the
people and, 1t was hoped, abandoned, is In
direct opposition to the sentiment and
policy of the republic which Mr. Willis Is
supposed to represent. If Mr.. Willis in
personal loyalty to Mr.. Cleveland and Mrs
Dominfs and in disloyalty to the American
republic and the spirit of republlcanism
finds himself unable to be decentIy cour-
teous to the friendly government to which
he IS accredited he ought to resign and
come home at once. If, however he is I'M
willing voluntarily to cease to cause the
United States to figure In Hawaii as an
enemy, bully and spy. our government
ought promptly to withdraw him. If the
President will not take such action Of his
own accord Congress, representing the peo-
pie of the United States, should urgently
invite him so to do. When Mr. Bayard's
case has been disposed of, Congress might
well consider the matter of the censure
and recall of Mr.. Willis. The question
whether our ambassadors and ministers
represent the United States abroad or a
political faction or the personal dislikes of
the executive in opposition to the sent-
ment and declared policy of q whole peo-
pie might as well be definitely settled.
