life, to submit to the people proposed
amendment to the constitution of the
United States empowering the Presi-
dent to veto any one or more items in
an appropriation bill without dissp-
proving others. This seems to be the
only practical way Of securing an en-
tirely clean bill of this character. AS
the constitution now is, veto covers
the whole bill, though the objection
may be to only one item among thou
sand.
At first the expenditures on account
of river and hsrbor improvement were
light, but that cannot be said of the
present, as the following statement of
6iabnrsements under this head shows.

for President. This action is extremely
untimely. It is in reality the duty OF
the rank and file to attend to the mat
ter of naming q Presidential candidate.
It is very apparent from the sentiment
generally expressed that the Populist
party will nominate for President
man who believes In its entire plat
form.
To nominate Senator Teller at this
time would compel a fight along silver
lines only. Populists are in earnest On
the silver question, but the party be-
lleVes In other reforms which it is not
yet ready to abandon and which it
should never abandon. Mr.. Teller, as
consistent silver man, has done a
wise thing In leaving the Republican
party. He deserves commendation for
his devotion to principle and his fidel-
ity and loyalty to his constituents.
The Populist party is not yet ready to
make him its Presidential candidate
and Mr.. Taubeneck should have waited
until the masses had had time to be-
come advised az to Mr.. Teller's action
before launching q boom for his nomi-
nation by a party to which he does not
belong.
The advocate., 1896-06-24
THE sUB-TREAsURY PLAN.

In Senator Aliens recent speech In
which he read the Populist National
platform and commented on its pro-
visions, when he reached the part pro-
posing the lending of money to the
people at 2 per cent. "ss set forth In
the sub-treasury plan of the Farmers
Alliance" or "s better system" he
said the sub.treasury plan had never
been in favor with Populists generally;
that this provision had been inserted
In the platform only because of the in
fluence which the Farmers Alliance
had In the councils of the party when
it was formed; that the 'plsn" had
lately been discarded by the Alliance
itself, and that it is no longer q part OF
the doctrine of the Populist) party.
That speech of Senator Allen has
provoked some newspaper discussion.
He is a man of acknowledged ability,
and stands In the front rank Of any
movement In which he takes part. The
uttersnces of man of his prominence
always attracts attention, but more es-
pecislly when he appears to take issue
with any con siderable number Of his
party associates. If John Sherman or
Arthur P. German should say some
thing that seemed to raise doubt
i W neither some particular doctrine Is or

IT will be in order for Republican
campaign orators to tell the people how
they are to secure any tariff legislation
since the Republican contingent In the
United States Senate has been reduced
to 80 low a number that there is no
earthly hope of that party controlling
that body at any time during the com
ing four years.
The advocate., 1896-06-24
THE SITUATION IS PERILOUs.

In all that ia great and grand, the
United States has led the nations. Its
history Is the model Of the ages. 1t
required one war to secure our inde-
pendence, another to maintain our
rights at sea, and still another to make
sure that popular government is not a
failure.
We are now confronted with still
greater and grsVer dangers. The rule
Of the money changers has begun. A
great party, drunk with success, amid
the shouts Of ten thousand madmen,
has just named as It's candidate for the
Presidency of the republic a man
pledged to maintain the PRESENT GOLD
STANDARD, with all the consequent
eVils-falling prices, loss Of employ
ment, debt end ruin.
At last-sfter forty years Of unpar-
alleled career, forgetting the glorious
record of its early achievements, false
to It's pledges, and basely betraying
the country 1t ssved-the Republican
party, by an 8 to l vote, has declared
Its ale glance to usurpation of men
whose only interest in the country Is to
rob it.
The situation is perilous. II Demo
Gratis once undertook to destroy the
government of the United States, they
now have an opportunity to assist in
saving 1t. Do they see what is imme-
AIately In front of themP DO they
comprehend It's mesningH Can they
rise to the level Of the oCcasinnP II
their party nearer and desrer to then
than their countryP
Republican success means perpetus
domination Of class interests and th'
downfall of popular government. tt
prevent this dreadful ending of fre'
institutions the Peoples party of th'
United States was expressly formed
We are organized and ready for tn
: conflict In every State and county
: Our success means the rule of tn
l people, With peace, progress aud plenty
! 1t means the overthrow Of class rul
and the perpetuity of constitutions
/ authority.
E WIN silVer Democrats unite with Us
The advocate., 1896-06-24

If they come, silver Republicans will
follow. Together, success is in sight.
Divided, we shall fritter away our
votes and make it all the more
difficult to rally in the future. Now is
the tin Q for union and victory, Delay
ig dangerous. Let us work and vote
together.
The advocate., 1896-06-24

What the disbursements for 1896
have been will not be known for some
time, as the yearly account closes on
the Both day of June. The showing
will probably be in the neighborhoOd
of $2O,OOO,OOO.
It has been found more economical
in some cases to let contracts for the
entire work and pay from year to year
as the work proceeds. Where con-
tracts are made for but one year, the
bids are necessarily higher in the ag-
Rregate than they would be if they
were allowed to cover longer time. 1t
requires large outlays to get ready for
important engineering works Of this
character, and contractors are not will
ing to risk so much on q short job un-
less the pay is big, The longer the
contract runs the longer the tools and
machinery that are procured in the be-
ginning can be prO6tsbly used.
The ADVOCATE is of opinion that
the time has come when the govern
ment should do all this kind of work
itself. In time of war the army builds
forts, dredges rivers, cuts canals and
does everything needed to expedite
army movements. In time of peace,
army officers could well superintend
the improvement of hsrbors and rivers,
em ploying such labor as is required.
This would get rid of the contract syS-
tenn; it would keep these army officers
on duty at useful work in their line; it
would greatly lessen the cost; it would
avoid scandal; and 1t would render un-
necessary two River and Harbor COM
mittees in Congress.
The advocate., 1896-06-24

A VERY truthful statement was

vention said: "The present currency

TAUBENECK'S ADDRESS Is UNTIMELY.

Chairman Tsubeneck and number
of other gentlemen who are more or
less prominent in Populist national
politics have issued an address in which
they point out certain lines which Pop
ulists should work along. The princi-
pal feature of the address is an appeal
for the nomination Of Senator Teller

COST OF IMPROVING RIVERS AND
HARBORS.

thirteen States had been q separate
colonial dependency of Great Britain,
and when they achieved their inde-
pendence by the war of the Revolution,
though they had united their armies
and had formed a sort of general gov
ernment known as the Confederation,
they were recognized not only by the
British King but by one another as
separate and independent States. The
Confederation had no power as gov
erning agency. The people of the
United States did not constitute ma
tion. They did not then capitalize the
word united. The States were united,
but they were not the United States
until after the constitution Of 1887 was
adopted.
The new government was set In mo-
ton April 30, 1889, by the first Presi-
dents Inauguration on that day. From
that time to the present, the people Of
the United States have constituted a
nation with ample power to support
and maintain itself. But the people
had been so long accustomed to the
separate Jurisdiction of the several col
onies, each taking care of its own
affairs, including leVYing taxes and
making of laws In general, that any
action of Congress looking toward the
building or repairing of wharf, the
placing of pier, or the cleaning of q
harbor or river, was regarded jealousy
as being an assumption Of unWarranted
power. In order to justify the opening
of national highways over the country
by Congress, it had to be done under
the guise of the war power, and hence
they were called military roads.
The first appropriation of money BY
Congress for hsrbor improvements wal
in 1892 for building a pier at Philsdel
phia. 1t was some years before com
plete and undisputed Jurisdiction OVel
this subject was universally conceded
to Congress under the power to "regu
late commerce among the seVers
States" Now, river and hsrbOr Inn
proYement has become one Of the prin
cipal objects of governmental care
Among the fourteen regular approprl
alton bills, that Of rivers and hsrbor
is one. And the places and objects o
such improvement have become so nu
merous and many Of them 80 impol
tant, and their consideration require
so much thought, care and discrimint
tion, that it was found necessary year
ago to appoint separate committee
each house of Congress to prepare thi
l particular bill. 1t iE said by commit
