Capt. Waters said to a Journal re-
porter in discussing his intention and
the present political situation:
"CarIfsle's statement that the govern
ment will not protect the money issued
under a free silver bill. the same as it
does other money, was written by one
of his superannuated clerks.
This is not a campaign, it is a revo-
luton. The era of argument is passed.
The people intend to use the free silver
idea as a club to beat business back in
to the country, and if it fails they Will
try the very next handy thing in sight,
probably Wilder's iron currency. The
people are sick of public speeches about
tariff and tin pals, about what Sam

luton on, and it will sweep Kansas, as

ThG management Of the races are to

it is unfortunate that they did not
make more out of it. The stockhold-
