TIRED OF CURL3.

There was little boy whose mother
had made little Lord Fauntleroy of
him, training his hair in long curls
and dressing him in black velvet
knickerbockers and jacket, ornament
ed with white lace. One day large
girl thought to frighten the pic
turesque little chap by rushing toward
him brandishing large pair of scis-
sors, and exclaiming, "l'll cut off your
curls!".
The little Lord Fauntleroy was not
frightened. He merely replied in a
shrill little voice, "Wish you would !"

their primaries last Saturday. There were
promises of pretty little fight between the
Morrill, men had control of the machine, and
we are told that some of the ants were denied
the privilege of voting. In one township, a
certain silver Republican offered to vote, but
was denied the right, whereupon twelve other
Republicans lett the polling place, refusing to

ST. John SPEAKS AT OLATHE.

On Saturday, the nth, Dick Blue, Congress
man Calderhead and Jack Harris addressed
meeting at Olathe, and, Of course, advocated
"the present gold standard" The friends of
silver then invited Ex-Governor st. John to re-
ply to the above-named speakers, and meeting
was advertised for the following Saturday-the
18TH The day was cloudy and storm was
threatened yet, before noon, the city was liter
ally crowded with teams and people who had
driven miles to hear the distinguished speaker.
1t looked like Fourth-of-July celebration.
Flags were flying everywhere, and the business
houses were decorated with bunting. 1t was
certainly wonderful demonstration
The goldites looked blue-you could easily
distinguish them from the happy, smiling Pop
ulists and silverites. A number of advocates
of the gold standard acknowledged that the old
Governors logic was nswerable-invincible
and they left the meeting with their eyes
open-with far different ideas than those they
entertained when the went to the meeting.
Governor St. John is power, and he will
be very busy during the campaign.

PEOPLES PARTY TICKET.
POpULlST NATIONAL CONVENTION.

The greatest of national conventions is now
in session at St. Louis. Upon its action hangs
the destiny of the nation. The lines are drawn
taut. The battle of the campaign is between
those who create wealth and those who absorb
it to the detriment of the many If we, the
people, prevail, the wage slave will become a
freeman; otherwise, the chains will be tighten
ed, and nothing but revolution will break the
bonds which bind us.
At this convention there are men of many
minds. All are honestly endeavoring to do
that which they consider will best serve the
needs of the common people. Some are III
favor of endorsing VIM. ]. Bryan, the nominee
of the new Democracy-and they appear to be
largely in the majority. Some of these also
favor the endorsement of Arthur Sewal for
vice-president while others want to nominate
a straight-out Populist, from the South, for
vice-president. Still others-mainly from the
Southern states-are bitterly opposed to the
endorsement or nomination of either Bryan or
Sewall, but want men chosen from the Popu
list ranks. These Southern men are not to be
blamed, either, for their whole fight has been
against the DaIlOC-DOx-StuHeIS IepedteIS anu
bulldozers of that section of the country. THEY
ARE HONEST IN WHAT THEY DO, and no friend
or advocate of Bryan should impugn their mo-
tives or cast any reflections upon them
It has been limited by men on the outside,
who know little of the trials and sacrifices that
reformers have to endure, that men in that con-
vention have been influenced by money; that
they have been bought. Such talk is untrue
and unjust, and cannot be too strongly con-
demned. We know men on both sides of the
uuestion-those who want to endorse and those
who do not-and we know they are actuated
by the best of motives. They have been re-
viled and prosecuted for opinions sake, and
have sacrificed much. They could have Jared
we'll, financially, if they had RETURNED to their
vomit," but they were, and are, true to princi-
ple-they are not for sale.
1t is to be regretted that harmony does not
reign supreme in the convention, but that it
does not we are free to admit. We only
hope that the result of the convention will be
for the best interests of the common people of
the nation-and we believe it will be.
.LATER-We have held the paper back day
in order to give the result of the convention,
but, UP to the hour of going to press, Saturday
morning, no nominations have been made. 1t
was conceded last night, at $500, that Bryan
would receive the nomination for president, but
the vce-presidential nomination still in doubt.
