FREE SILVER BADGES.

The great issue in the coming campaign will
be free silver. Every friend of the cause should
let the world know where he stands We
have the most unique and handsome badge ev-
er designed 1t is made of two metals, thus
representing the popular idea-the coinage of
gold and silver at ratio of 10 to- Fhe two
metals are joined together with link and has
a bar pin at the top. Every patriotic Amer-
can should wear one of these badges. Wrap
a csc piece in soft paper and send it with your
address to the Novelty Company, Salina, Kan,

ut has long been conceded that money talks,
but never was it more eloquent of patriotism
and Loyalty than when offered for the purchase
of our new natioal bonds"
Such talk is the veriest rot. There was no
patriotism or loyalty about it. The fellows
who purchased those bonds did so simply for
the purpose of making more money out of it,
and not to assist the government. TWAS huge
gambling scheme, and hundreds of men raked
in nice little fortunes without investing pen

dictate secured the bulk of the bonds, as it was
intended it should, and the syndicate realizes
millions OF dollars profits,

WHEN the National Reform Press Associa-
ton met at Dallas, Texas, of course the ques-
ton of presidential candidate was discussed,
and it seems that majority favored Judge
Caldwell, of Arkansas. We have never seen a
statement from Judge Caldwell to the effect
that he is Populist, but it was stated at that
meeting that he has declared that he stands
square upon the Omaha platform. 1t does not
seem right that the old tried and true reformers
who have borne the heat of the battle should
be ignored in the selection of candidate for
so important position, but if Judge Caldwell
can give ample proof that he stands true to the
principles of the Peoples party, and the con-
yeption at St. Louis concludes that he is the
strongest and most available man, he will re-
ceive the undivided support of the Peoples
party. But we don't want to see the Gresham
nonsense re-enacted at ST. Louis.

MRS. LEASES OPINION.

To Topeka Mail, Topeka, Kas.:
WICHITA, KAs., Feb. I5.-Replying to your
request of the nth inst, l believe that the
questions of resubmission of the prohibitory
amendment and the restoration of silver to the
position it occupied previous to the legislation
of 1873 will be the dominant issues in the
Kansas campaign. The cowardice of political
leaders may seek to give these questions sec
ondary consideration, but the demand of an
awakened people will force their recognition
In regard to fusion" let Lowell answer for
me:

AS to who viii most likely be the Populist
candidate for governor, there is such diversity
of opinion and UGH an abundance of material
to select from that | do not care to risk my
reputation as prophet by hazarding guess.
Fraternally yours,
MARY ELIZABETH LEASE.
FRANK P. MACLENNAN, of the Topeka State
Journal, and Arthur Capper, of the Topeka
Mail and Breeze, ought to get together and
compare notes. All along, until right lately,
the State Journal has opposed the Mckinley
tariff robbery, and poses as the friend of silver
Now, however, it has dropped the tariff ques-
ton, and is trying to make itself and its read
ers believe that Mckinley is silver man, even
quoting all old speech made by Mckinley, Ill
which he talked for silver. (Carlise did the
same thing-and now look at him). On the
other hand, the Mail and Breeze declares and
insists that Mckinley is committed to the gold
standard idea, and that the Republican party
is in favor of gold standard. Capper is con-
sistent, while it appears that MacLennan IS
trying to let himself down easy. But then,
Mckinley will not be Sin it, at the national
convention, so it makes little difference what
position the two Topeka editors take.
