Housekeepers Want tho Best Food

Housekeepers Want tho Best Food. Whal Scientists say:
 Prof. Arnold of the University of New York: 'I consider that each and every ingredient of oleomargarine but ter or butterine is perfectly pure and wholesome, that the oleomargarine butter differs in no essential manner from the butter made from cream. It is great discovery, blessing for the poor, in every way a perfectly pure, wholesome and palatable article.
 Silver Churn Butterine is prepared especially for fine table use. Every de- tail of it's manufacture is perfect. Re- cent chemical experiments show that in nutritive and digestive properties Silver Churn Butterine is fully equal to the best creamery butter; while in keeping quality Silver Churn Butterino is much superior.

.sshore Acres" Tomorrow Night.


 The ideal comedy of American life and character. "Shore Acres" will be given a fine scenic production at O'Briens op- era house tomorrow night.
 Patrons of the theater who have seen "The Old Homestead" will find MT. Herne's play fully as charming as that New England idyl. William Dean How els says: "The play, Shore Acres, has even a finer strain of poetry in it." Den man Thompson thought MT. Herne's play so beautiful that he went to see 1t three times in one week. For it's production in this city "Shore Acres" will have en- tirely new scenery and some novel me chanical effects
 There is no villain, no murder, no wronged woman and no blood-curdling dramatic climax in "Shore Acres" yet the play is the best native drama yet produced
 The Rev. J. Villa Blake of Chicago rec commended James A. Hernes play, Shore Acres" to the members of his church, and advised them to go and see 1t. This play was also honored with the first cler- gymen's theater party ever made up In America. Shore Acres" is not ser mon, but it Is brimful of human nature, and that is what everyone admires in 1t.
 CA Breezy Time"
 The clash of interest in "A Breezy Time" which will be seen at O'Brien' s opera house on Tuesday. January T. is brought about by the fact that the cred- itors of a young college student have pursued him out of town, and that the girl he loves has done likewise. It is easy to be seen that comic complications can grow out of this state of things. It re- mains to be seen, of course, whether they have been taken advantage of. Leaving the plot altogether out of the question, however, the piece is said to bring upon the stage great many people who have made hits in their time and who have been brought together for the first time in "A Breezy Time" Principal among them are E. B. Fitz, the well-knewn heavyweight comedian. and Kathryn

DeWolf Hopper.

DeWolf Hopper and his excellent com- ic opera company will make their first appearance in this city in their great success of last season entitled "Dr. Syn tax" at O'Brien's opera house Wednes- day, January S. MT. Hopper's support this year is quoted by all leading critics as being the largest, strongest and best he has yet had, and also that it includes all the more important favorites of the organization. Last summer MT. Hopper found time to evolve some entirely new comic scenes and situations, as well as several new musical members, into the sprightly, picturesque opera which will receive it's premier presentation in this city on the above named date. The lat ter part of the opera, in which the en- thusiasm of school girl and college boy Is usually worked up to high pitch by the exciting race scene, with Its displays of college colors and class cries, for which American colleges are so famous, will be certain to add zest and liveliness to this inspiring scene.

TARIFF TALK Is STALE.

Mr.. Mckinley is working hard to force
the tariff into debate. But tariff talk IS
stale. 1t interests nobody who under
stands the situation. Mr.. Bryan put the
case we'll when he said there is no other
question until the silver question is set
tied. When a speaker begins to talk
tariff to Western or Southern audience,
his listeners are ready to hear the next
man on the program.
Should Republicans succeed in this
campaign, President McKinley's admin
istration would be compelled to sell
bonds for gold just as the present admin
istration has done. And this will con-
tinue from year to year under any ad-
ministration so long as the present finan-
cial policy is allowed to continue.
No amount Of revenues from customs
can have the least effect on gold reserves
in the treasury, because these duties and
texes are not paid in gold. Customs are
paid in silver certificates, greenbacks and
treasury notes, almost wholly, and the
same, with the addition of National bank
notes, may be said Of taxes paid through
the international Revenue Bureau.

THE SACRIFICE OF WATSON.

II Thomas Il. Watson is sacrificed, no
man will be more culpable than himself,
His bold and courageous stand for prin-
ciple when his Southern Congressional
colleagues betrayed their people in
1872, and his manly defense Of Popu-
list principles since that time, have 80
endeared him to the people Of our faith
throughout the country, that in every
one OF the hundreds OF votes taken by
our party papers within the last twelve
months on candidates for q Presidential
ticket Mr.. Watson's name was placed
either first or second. At the National
convention at st. Louis, no other name
was thought OF for Vice President among
the delegates from Western and North
ern States but that Of Tom Watson of
Georgia. He has been regarded as
among our best and strongest men, and
had it been deemed wise to select both
our candidates from members of the
Populist party, he would have been one
Of them.
The political situation when our con-
vention met was peculiar. The action Of
the Republican convention, in declaring
for the gold standard and against equal
privileges OF coinage for both silver and
gold. suddenly brought the country face

son Electoral ticket. That is just what
we are doing. Our State convention
properly having this matter in charge,
named an Electoral ticket after having
unanimously indorsed the platform and
ticket of the National convention. These
Electors, though every one of them is a
Democrat, as Mr.. Bryan is, and as MI.
Watson was only a few years ago,
pledged themselves land the pledge was
published in the newspspers) to cast
their votes, in case of their election, For
Mr.. Watson if his vote is greater outside
of Kansas than SeWall's. That is per
fectly fair, and accordingly Populist
papers present the names Of these Elec-
tors as part Of the Bryan and Watson
ticket. The ADVOCATE assures Mr.. Wat
son that had no such pledge been made,
the names OF these Electors would not
have appeared on the Populist ticket in
these columns.
With this explanation concerning the
situation, the ADVOCATE submits to Mr.:
Watson whether it be wise, either in the
interest of his candidacy or In the inter
est Uf the cause he and his party are
now striving to serve and to forward to
success, that he should do anything or
advise any policy that would undo
what the people themselves have done
on their judgment Of what was best
under the circumstances, in their par
ticular locality. It is now too late to
make any changes in these respects that
would not work disastrously.
The people are, or ought to be, su-
preme in all these matters. If Mr.. Wat
son feels aggrieved in any manner or mat
ter, he would do well to submit the
whole case TO the National committee,
when it could be wisely treated without
prejudice and the public would get the
straight of it.
The ADVOCATE assures Mr.. Watson
that for himself personally all the people
of Kansas, without regard to party, en-
tertain the most friendly feelings; and as
to the Populists, he is probably nearer
to them than any other member of the
party. We beg leave to add only that
Populists of Kansas, by an almost unan-
imous agreement, have made up their
minds to support Bryan and Watson in
any event.
The ADVOCATE, speaking for itself, de-
sires to say that this paper advocated a
division of Electors according to the Vot-
ing strength of the several parties pro-
posing to support the ticket, and a like
division on the State and local tickets
wherever it was practicable. But other
and perhaps wiser counsels prevailed.

every Popullst TO be most pernlcious,
unjust and destructive from every point
Of view; and the Democratic convention
joined issue with its Old antagonist not
only on this single proposition, but on
every other Except one) that bears upon
or is related to it; and the exception,
while it is Objectionable to Populists,
had not been made the subject of official
party declaration. (Reference is had to
the redemption of government notes
with coin.) With this exception the
Democratic platform has the hearty in
dorsement Of every member of the
Peoples party.
While personally unexceptionable, the
Republican candidate is obnoxious to
every Populist, because he represents a
policy to which our party is aftifmatively
hostile; while, on the other hand, the
Democrat candidate is both personally
and politically acceptable to the great
body of our membership, and this fact
was made apparent by a spontaneous
declaration Of individual opinion that
was practically unanimous in his favor.
That was the condition Of the Populist
mind when the National convention was
called. Every delegate to that body
(most of them, anyway had been chosen
before the Republican convention met,
and our people had been considering
Holcomb, Watson, Allen, Caldwell,
PETER and others as probable candidates
on our ticket. But the work OF the
other conventions had so changed the
political status that a single issue was
already before the people when the Pop
ulist convention met, and that issue was
part Of our creed, involving what every
Populist regards as the most vital of
all problems at this time-money, and
it had aroused the patriotic impulses of
our voters. We all agreed ttat we must
in some way join our present support to
the Democrat side of the contest. With
that object in view, we adopted clear,
straightforward Populist platform SO
that our party integrity and political
identity might be retained. The con-
vention gave the unanimous vote Of the
body to Mr.. Watson as the party's can
didate for the Vice Presidency, and by a
vote Of more than three to one Mr..
Bryan Of Nebraska was chosen as it's
candidate for the Presidency.
This, Of course, logically left a good
many details of local organization to the
good sense Of the people and the discre-
tion Of committees; for in addition to the
matters and things already herein men,
toned, quite formidable rebellion had
broken out in the Republican ranks,
and every silver Republican was align
ing himself under the banner Of Bryan.
These details had to be arranged, local
differences and disputes had to be ad-
justed in each State and locality as best
it could be done in view of the general
object to be attained, and in view, also,
of the new and peculiar conditions with
which the people had been suddenly con-
fronted.
And now, nearly three months after
the National convention adjourned, and
after its Executive committee, consist
ing Of three members from each State
and Territory, had been appointed and
entrusted with full power to do any,
