His Acceptance and Advocacy of the Sc, Louis
Platform is Reputation Of His Own

OmlClhA ACCS'
Senator Stanley Matthews (Rep) Of
Ohio introduced in the United States
Senate, December 6, 1877, the following
resolution:
WHEREAS, At the date Of the passage Of said
act Of Congress last aforesaid, to-wit: the 14th
Of July, 1870, the coin OF the United States Of
standard value Of that date included silver
dollars of the weight Of 41915 grains each, Is
declared by the act approved January Is, 1887,
entitled "An act supplementary to che act en-.
titled AN act establishing mint and regulSt-
ing the coins Of the United States" to be a
legal tender Of payment according TO their
nominal value for any sums; therefore, be 1t
ReSOlued, By the Senate (the House concur
ring therein), that all bonds of the United
States issued or authorized to be issued under
the said acts Of Congress hereinbeiore recited
are payable, principal and interest, at the Op.
hon Of the government OF the United States in
silver dollars Of the coinage Of the United
States containing 41915 grains each OF stand
ard silver and to restore to its coinage such
silver coins as legal tender in payment Of said
bonds, principal and interest," is not in viola
tlon of the public faith nor in derogstlon Of
the rights Of public creditors.
1t was passed by vote Of AZ to 20.
Senators Allison, Plumb and Oglesby
voted for it. President Hayes vetoed
the resolution, and Ingalls, voted to pass
it over his veto.
In the House the vote was: Yeas, 189;
nays, 70. William Mckinley, Charles
Foster and 11S other Republican Con.
gressmen voted for it.
John G. Carlisle was among the Demo
Gratis who voted aye.
Now Mr.. Mckinley and Mr.. Carlisle
and large number of their colleagues
are busily engaged in an effort to fasten
on this country directly opposite and
antagonistic policy. Is it likely that
they were right then when they were
fresh from the people, or are they more
likely to be right now when they are en-
joying close confidential relations with
the money sharks, trusts and combines?
II silver was honest money then, why is
it not equally honest nowP Why is it
that the longer men stay in Office the
The advocate., 1896-10-07

THIS campaign Is the first one In
years when the gold standard men have
not made a fight under false pretenses.
This year they are out of the woods
and are fighting for exactly what they
want. The people welcome the op
portunity to participate in an open
fight on the money question and will
encourage no movement to divide the
forces.

Why don't the people elect men occs-

Kansas Irrigation Congress.

BY authority OF the State Executive
committee, the fourth annual meeting
of the Kansas Irrigation Congress is
hereby called to meet at Great Bend,
Kss., on the 18th, 10Th and 18th Of Oc-
tober, 1896.
Four years of drouth and crop failures
have riVeted the attention Of farmers and
all classes Of people to the fact that irri-
cation is the only salvation Of the great
plains country. Texas, Colorado, Okla
homR, Nebraska and the DRkotRs are
pressing forward with unabated zeal
toward the reclamation Of their lands by
irrigation.
Kansas is not one whit behind any Of
them. She points with pride to the
work already done. Within her borders
over $500 private irrigation plants have
been put in since the agitation was
begun, besides thousands Of farmers have
been induced to try irrigation in a small
way, which insures them a living outside
Of their farming.
The Kansas State Board Of Irrigation
will be here to give account Of their
stewardship, The prominent candi-
dates Of the different political parties as
we'll as those directly interested IN irri-
CATION will be present to thoroughly
discuss the duties Of the National and
State governments toward irrigation.
Noted speakers will be present from
other States, and practical irrigation
will be treated in all its different phases.
No person should be absent from this
meeting, who can possibly come. Every
town, city and township in the State
should be represented. Every person
coming will be considered a delegate.
The ladies are especially invited. All
can have their "say" and ask as many
questions on the various subjects as they
desire.
The following railroads have made
one-fsre rates in the State Of Kansas,
Kansas City and st. Joe, Mo-, included;
excursion tickets to DO sold October IA

INTOLERANT REPUBLICANS.
A POpulist Speaker HOwled Down at the
Topeka Labor Day Meeting.

Topeka Labor Day Meeting.
The Republicans are possessed sp-
parently of the idea that no one should
make a political speech at any but dis
tinctiVely political meetings unless it
be gold speech. Their idea is that a
gold speech is In order at any time and
place. These speeches are insinuated
into everything from street corner
gatherings to the prayer meeting. Yet
no complaint Is made unless some one
manages to slip in word for Bryan,
and then 1t ls suddenly discovered that
"there Is no politics In this meeting"
In numberless cases the next speaker
proceeds with regulation gold Re-
publican speech. 1t seems that Re-
publicsns not only do not want to hear
what the opposition has to say, but OBJ.
jeCt to any one else hearing II 1t can be
prevented. The courteous thing for o
listener to speech to which he objects
to do is to leave the meeting, HOwls
Of "Put him out" and that sort of
thing are the stock In trade Of the
roWdy, the hobo and the hoodlum.
The Labor day meeting at Topeka
September % postponed for the Fall
Festival was one Of those meetings
at which politics were objected to In
the case Of one speaker and spplsuded
in another. In order that the story Of
this matter be impartially told the To
peks Journals (Rep,) report is tere
given. Its reference to the interrup-
tlCns IL a very mild statement:
at is pretty difficult to eliminate
politics from any kind of a gathering
