ity to the territory which it tray
erSes.
The Plant System is one of the
most wonderful constructions in
the history of modern transporta-
ton systems. It's nucleus is in
the state OF Florida, from whence,
after many coils and convolutions
IN which it touches both shores OF
the peninsula, it throws itself, like
one of Fiorida'S own rattlers,
straight to the northeast and
northwest, making connections
with ali points in the United
States. Like another of Florida's
old settlers, the alligator, it is
equally 1t home in the water; for
it has regular lines to Havana and
Mobile, and is now, by it's excur-
sions to Jamaica, carrying its pas
sengers still farther into the Sun
land of the world.
And we must not forget the
latest addition to the navy of the
Systematic imperial ship, LA
Grande Duchesse," which, on the
last day of the old year, glided
gracefully into the placid waters
of the James-a ship of steel, with
room fol seven hundred passengers,
and capable of being turned into
ship of war if need should be.
If Florida is the nucleus of the
Plant System, then Ocala should
be its capital. Situated at the
center and focus of the System,
surrounded by vast phosphate de-
posts and fertile lands, and lnhab-
tied by a people quick to appre-
Ciatc the benefits of great business
enterprises, it offers the best loca-
ton for the industries of the Sys-
tern. And we cannot doubt that
Mr.. Plant and his trusted officials
have already seen these advan-
tages.
Many years ago Mr.. Plant set
himself to his life task-the build
ing up of the transportation sys-
fen, which dominates the SO11t h.
eastern portion of the continent
The dreams of his youth are now
in process of fulflment. "He
thought out his work, and he
worked out his thought"

Dedicated to the Hon. B. X. Tillman, South
Carolina, by g. w. Lloyd.
1t is not to lie alert with soldiers strength
TO WELD sword or wave glove,
Or rise to conquelers fame at length,
Denotes the good or makes the brave:
Give me the power to bide the scorn
And rise above the hate and strife
Of those to wealth and title born
Is the crowned courage of your life
What are the mighty men of arms2
Strong as their heads and realms they bide
Sport as they will, with fortunes charms
They are but leaves upon the tide!
What is the sword that props a'king?
The FARMER on his army's vail
The strength of soul that dare to SPRING
And show the MONARCH in the man.
In dim old sepulchre they lie
The feed of silence and decay
While the worlds strong heart mounts high,
And thrones itself upon to-day
Give me the man whose hands have tossed
The corn seed to the mellow soil
Whose feet the forest depths have crossed
Whose brow is noble, crowned with toll.

about 6:3o, the convention adjourned.

Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1896-03-20

THOUSANDS of Republicans honestly believe
that present conditions are a result of Demo-
cratic tariff tinkering, and some Democrats will
vote the Republican ticket this fall in the belief
that change to Republican rule will bring
better times. 1t is strange, but true; would be
contemplate if it were not pitiable. 1t has
taken thirty-six years to produce the present
national disaster, and it will take twce,that
number of years to effect cure even if
a remedy were Immediately applied; but if
no remedy is applied, quarter of century
will provoke a violent revolution. Mark our
words, and remember them. Permanent pros
perity cannot come to our people until there is
radical change in our laws and in the admin
istration. The men who expect prosperity as
result of Republican success next fall are DOOM
ed to disappointment We are sorry for them,
and we are more than sorry for their children
and ours, who will bear the heaviest burdens of
our political plumbers.

JOHN SHERMAN warmly eulogized the pres
ident." The Republicans of the Kentucky
legislature threatened to vote for Carlisle to
prevent the electoon of free-slver Blackburn.
The "sound money" men of all parties are i'll
the same camp, aiming at the same thing, using
the same methods, and are, all alike, traitors to
the peoples interests. Blind is he who cannot
see it, and political idiot is he who does not re-
sist it. Can men who are enlightened never
reach the parting of the ways? Is party above
principle, and boss above country? Let us be
men or throw up our citizenship. Let us be
worthy of our birthright, or "bow our necks to
the yoke, like bulocks.' Let us quit acting
the farce of having a republic, or else make
our republic worthy of the name. We are
tired of being harnessed to political towards,
and would break the bands that bind lis to po-
litical idiocy. In the name of Washington and
Lincoln, be up and doing!

THE Republican party of to-day claims to be
a party of "protection.' Whom does it pro-
tect? Does it protect a million hungry, ragged
and homeless men who tramp tramp, tramp in
search of employment, and find none? Does it
protect farmers who are selling all kinds Of
produce below cost? Does it protect operat-
ives who earn 500 year, OH an average, and
only receive $500? Does it protect the tax
payer by reducing expenditures for govern
mental purposes? Does it protect the people
AGAINST the extortion of railroad companies in
high freghts? or has it ever set limit to the
rapacity of combined capital? Answer, ye
Mckinley yawpers, and answer truly, and if
your party has protected, or attempted to pro-
tect, any of these classes, then we will haul
down our coors and vote for Bill Mckinley.

"McKINLEY and protection seems tC be in
the swim" Just what keeps the thing aaoat
is little hard to discover. 1t is claimed that
Mckinley is poor man. 1t is also claimed
that his friends have raised 500, 900 as fund
to secure the nomination of this "ripe states
man." What does it all mean? Is the Repub-
lcan party incapable of choosing candidate
for president without the use of money and
clap-trap? Lincoln was nominated without all
an effort on his part. He bought no delegates,
packed no conventions, shot off no fireworks.
Lincolr was a man, but, beside Mckinley, he
was god; and yet, the Republican party of
to-day claims to be the party of Lincoln. 1t is
lie. The party of Lincoln is dead.
