The discussion Of the mayors
"dilemma" has even awakened our
sleepy neighbor by the bridge. In
Saturdays Express local editorial
suggesting that a way out of the
dilemma" has been discovered
through the Eyeglasses OF several
prominent lawyers"
In spite Of the provision OF the
charter, warrants drawn upon
the city treasurer for payment
OF money shall be for imme.
diate payment" The idea is that
such warrants can be so drawn as
not to be for immediate pay
ment.n
There is one way to avoid the
direct wording OF the section, by
authorizing the issuance of a series
OF warrants; let them lack COM
pleteness so that when the city is
prepared to pay the series the war
rants could be presented by the
holders for the lacking signature
OF the mayor, for instance, then
these warrants would be consid-
cred issued for "immediate pay
ment."
But what are we talking about?
The same section of the charter
reads: shat warrants will not be
received for taxes or other dues
due the CITY," Yet over $4,000
in warrants have been received for
taxes during the past year. Credi.
tors OF the city receiving warrants,
using same to pay taxes, and the
collector holding same subject to
collections, and turning in the
warrants with the money to cover
same. This is one way to whip
tie section round the stump.
Now, what is to prevent the issue
Of warrants receivable for taxes,
subject to collection? 1t has been
done. In this way we could get in
q large amount OF our back taxes I;
particularly IL such warrants bore
interest.
Ofcourse it would be no more
violation of the section to issue
warrants directly than indirectly,
but the section has not stood in
the way Of receiving warrants for
taxes ever since the Inauguration
Of the Paschal administration.
February 10, 1894, an ordinance
was passed authorizing the issu-
ance of $780, warrants or notes
bearing per cent interest for the
payment of current expenses for
the months Of February, March,
April and May Of that year, pledg-
ing the incoming years taxes. That
seemed to work. 1t was ''dilem-
ma" then as it is now, but 1t was
one way to get out Of it.
Perhaps we are $4,000 worse of
than we were in January 1894, but
the rope that saved us then is
within reach today. tDilemmas"
sometimes require extreme meas
ures. The city charter has not
stood in the way in the past, or up
to date.
Relief the city must have. When
the next years budget is reached
the city boat should be trimmed
for light sailing.

MR. BRYAN AND HIs CAMPAIGN.

from any standpoint, or judged by any
standard. The inspiration of new life

off it's old close communion creed and
proclaimed itself alive In the living

Of American young manhood to deeds
Of daring, moved him on heroic lines
and gave him words Of wisdom to
utter wherever he went.
The time, the occasion and the at
tending circumstances afforded him
an exalted opportunity to concentrate
public thought upon the central idea
of the silver moVement--the restora-
tion Of bimetslllsm, that we may be
able to pay our debts In the money of
the contract. NObly he repelled the
charge of repudlation, Loyalty he
spurned the srrsignment Of our op.

THE FUTURE OF pOPULIsM.

That Popullsm was the force which
brought new life to Democracy and
brought about a separation of the dis
cOrdsnt elements In that organization,
there lie no loom for doubt. The same
conditions that bred POpullsm operated
to extend its influence not only into
the ranks Of the Democrats, but among
Republicans as we'll. The times were
ripe for a coming together Of like ele-
ments in all the great parties, because
an issue had risen on which men In the
several parties had we'll defined but
opposite views, and the issue was
deemed by all to be vital.
Kansas Populists we're the first to
move on broad lines. At our first elec.
tion we chose a large majority of the
members of the Legislature, Eve out
Of seven Congressmen, and one United
States Senator. Senator PETER was
the first and is now the only member
Of the Senate that was chosen by
strictly Populist votes. Kyle and Allen
were elected by aid Of Democrat mem.
bers of their State Legislatures, and
Republican votes were necessary In
the election Of Butler of North Caro-
lima.
AS Kansas began, 80 she continues.
This State, In proportion to It's voting
population, still has the largest mum.
ber Of Populists. Alone they are
about equal to the Republicans If party
lines we're now drawn as they were In
1890 and 1899. With Democrats and
silver Republicans joined to the Popu.
list forces, the future politics Of the
State may be expected to remain as the
late election returns showed the pres.
ent situation to be-.
AS In Kansas, 90, to Q greater or less
extent, is and wiz be the outcome ln
other parts Of the country. There has
The advocate., 1896-11-11

the fact that his course as a legislator
will be measured and criticised by
standards more exacting than those
applied In ordinary cases. Theirs is
not an ordinary case. POpullsm has
been merCilessly, cruelty talked about
as no other party has ever been; and
these our Kansas legislators, knowing
the injustice and mslignlty of most Of
this stuff, will recognize the impor.
tance Of a wise policy that will re.
dound to the good Of the State and the
credit Of the party. They will remem.
Der that Kansas PopulIsm is on trial.

NEW ALIGNMENT OF PARTIES.

The National Democrat ticket,
headed by Palmer and Buckner, was a
neatly arranged scheme to afford an
opportunity for gold Democrats, under
cover, to vote for the Republican
ticket. The returns show that the
great body of gold Democrat votes
were cast for Mckinley and Hobart,
and these gentlemen, as well as their
party managers and the great newsps-
pers of the country, acknowledge the
effect Of this vote. It is within the
truth to say that had all gold Demo.

the way Of full and hearty union Of
similar political elements in other
States;but the trend Of politics is toward
q complete capitalization of what
may be termed the gold elements on
one side and the silver elements on the
other.
But the triple slliance-Populist,
Democrat and silver RepubliCsn-can-
not be long continued in its present
form. The alliance for the purpose of
the Late campaign has done It's work
and it was well done. The alliance,
with It's three National, State and local
committees, was necessary under the
circumstances then present. But now,
that we have passed the initial stage,
and have secured place on the map
Of politics for the union which made
the triple alliance the only practicable
way Of handling the work then to be
done, we have reached the stage where
q ''more perfect union" is necessary.
This more perfect union Is to be &C.
c0mplished by the formation of sin.
gle party on lines agreed upon by dele.
gates In a National convention chosen
by the voters that are opposed to the
gold standsrd-high protection policy
Of the Republican party. These lines
can be easily forecast. The late ali-
anCe was formed on a single issue
money-and Democrats and silver Re-
publicsns were agreed that the Popu-
list creed on this question is tensble--
free and unlimited coinage of silver
and gold at the present legal ratio Of
16 to |, supplemented by government
paper money to take the place of Ma
tiOnsl bank notes. Around that prop.
OsitiOn, as q starting point, we can
rally all our forces. What else, If any.
thing, We shall find acceptable to all
parties to the union will doubtless fol-
low as essential parts or phases of the
main question.
The dream Of the POpulist has been
to accomplish a union of the best ele-
ments of the republic in opposition to
the worst. AS the early Republicans
prayed for the coming of q great Ma
tionsl party that could and would
wisely handle the slave question, 80
the Populists.sre praying for the for
nation of party that will wisely and
safely amend our monetary system In
The interest Of the people that produce
property as against the speculating

The ADVOCATE Is Of opinion that
the time is now at hand when POpu-

They will be In position to prove the
malice and fslSity Of the charges of In
capacity and corruption which have
been current among our political sne-
mics ever since the Peoples party was
formed In 1890.
Such q situation has not before ex-
listed. Though we began to elect men
to important Offices six years ago, our
party has not yet had entire control of
the State government. The Leglsls.
ture Of 1891 was composed of Popu-
list House chosen In 1890, and a Senate
elected In 1888. The State sdminlstrs.
tion elected In 1891 was Republican.
The Senate elected In 1892 was Popu-
list, the House Republican, and the
Governor and other State officers were
PopuliSts. In 1894 the Senate still re.
NAMED Populist, but the House and
State officers were Republicans.
But In January, 1897, every depart
ment of the State government passes
into the care Of the Popullsts. The
Legislative, Executive and Judicial
departments, all will be In their hands.
They will properly be held responsible
for all that Is done In the enactment,
the construction and enforcement of

COuntsble for all that may be or appear
