M'KINLEY PROTESTS.
He Does Not Approve of the $4,000
Inaugural Ball,

Washington, Jan. 27.-President-elect
Mckinley has written the following
letter to the committee having charge
of the arrangements for the inaugural
ball:
Canton, Jan. %, 1S97.-Inaugural
Committee, Washington, d. C.-Gentle-
men: 1t has come to my knowledge
that you propose to expend something
like $4,000 for what is known as the in
augural ball, to be held on the evening
following my Inauguration. While I
appreciate fully the spirit that has
prompted you to project a ceremonial
of such magnitude, allow me to say,
with the sincere hope that 1 will not
be misunderstood, that it is unbeara BILE
to me to think of such a vast amount
of money being devoted to no more
substantial purpose than display and
pleasure when there are millions of our
brethren throughout the world actually
suffering, starving, dying from the lack
of food. clothing, shelter and medical
attention.
1 beg of you, then, if you desire to
arrange an observance of inaugural
day that will be we'll pleasing to me,
and give impreSSiveneSS to the event,
that you abandon your pretentious
plan for the ball, and, with the approx
al of the citizens who have subscribed
the money, devote $25,000 to the organ
lied alienation of wretchedneSS in the
great cities of the United States, $40, 900
to provide food and shelter for the per-
secuted Armenians of Turkey, and $15,-
to relieve the horrors of plague and
famine in India.
Hoping that you will share my views
of the manner in which the funds can
be applied with the most gratifying re-
suits to our people and with the great
est credit to our impulses as a Chris
tan nation, 1 seriously and earnestly
solicit your participation in this act of
sacrifice and self-forgetfulness. 1 am,
gentlemen, yours very cordially,
WILLIAM MCKINLEY.

THEY FAVOR GOLD.
The National Board of Trade Has q
Cunning Plan.

Washington, Jan. 27.-The national
board of trade at it's meeting today
adopted the report of the committee on
banking laws. It was the opinion of
the committee that there should be es-
tabhShed a consistent and delibera tely
planned financial system. The plan
presented was, briefly, as follows:
First, that gold coin shall remain the
standard money; second, that steps
should be taken to retire all United
States notes in such a way as not to
disturb business relations; that national
banks shall be allowed to issue cur
rency to the par value of their bonds
and the tax on circulation be reduced
and the banks be allowed to issue cur
rency based on assets, under such ma
tiOna1 supervision as will make it safe,
elastic and redeemable in gold at the
bank of issue and al the city of New
York; third, that such banks of issue,
with a capital of 5000 or more, be au-
thorized to be established in towns and
villages of less than 5000 population.
The committee on the subject of a
money commission made n report, in
which congress is asked to create a
commission to consist of eleven persons
to be appointed by the president two
of whom shall be selected from the SEN
ate committee on finance and two from
the house banking and currency COM
mittee. OF the other seven members
two shall be bankers of recognized ex-
perience and ability, two agriculturists

ufacturerS of standing, the remaining
member to be selected on account of
his recognized ability and learning in
the science of political economy. In
no event shall more than six members
be of the same political party. 1t is
to be the duty of the commission to
enter upon a thorough and compre-
hensive consideration of the currency
and banking affairs of the United States
and laws relating thereto. On or be-
fore January 1, 1898, they shall make
a concise and exact report of their de-

Her Resolution Denouncing All Poll
teal Parties Rejected by Suffragists

Des Moines, Ia, Jan. 27.-The Ma
tional Woman Suffrage convention to-
day showed 10 states, represented by
81 delegates, and a large attendance.
The report of Annie L. Diggs of Kan
sas on affiliation with political parties
was rejected because it favored de-
nouncing all political parties and ia
vored dropping the Kansas work owing
to the opposition of the Populists. Har-
riet Taylor Upton of Warren, o., treas
urer reported the association out of
debt. Six years ago the total receipts
were 81, 900; this year, $11,S23.
The following states show gains
California, Colorado. Delaware, Iowa,
Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts,. Min
nesota, Nevada, Ohio, New Mexico,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas, Vir-
gfnia and Wisconsin.
Fees are based on membership at 10
cents each and receipts from that
source $971. New York stands first,
California second and Nevada shows
the greatest gain in membership. Hen
ry B. Blackwell of Massachusetts re-
ported from the presidential suffrage
committee declaring nearly every wo-
man would have voted in the last pres
idential election if she could.
In accepting a standing vote of thanks
for his work, Mr.. Blackwell said his
WIFE Lucy Stone, was entitled to al
the credit for what he might do. Clara
Berwick Colby presented lengthy re-
port by the committee on plan of work
making fewer committees, the chair
man of which were all to be members
of the business committee.
The report was discussed this after
noon, arousing some opposition in its
details

WICHITA POLICE BOARD.
Jocelyn, Furnish and Spencer Named
Campbell for Chief

Gov. Leedy this afternoon named the
board of police commissioners of Wich-
tia The members are the following:
President, S. E. Jocelyn, (Pop); secre-
tary, Joseph Furnish, (Pop); George
Spencer (Dem.); chief of police, VIM.
Campbell, (Pop).
President Jocelyn is a farmer and one
of the oldest residents of Wichita Sec
rotary Furnish is engaged in truck
gardening, and VIM. Spencer is in the
real estate business.
When asked what the appointment Of
the new board meant in reference to the
enforcement of the prohibitory law, ex-
Governor Lewelling said:
Although I expect no radical chang
es in the manner of enforcing the law
at Wichita, yet I am inclined to think
it may be more rigedly looked after by the
new board than it was by the old. If
Governor Leedy does instruct the new
board to especially take care of the
prohibitory law above all other laws,
1 anticipate that things will run along
about the same as they have in Wichita
for some time. The new board will IN
doubtedly enforce the prohibitory law
as strictly as practica ble''

He refused to tell his name when asked

Sella, and that he was marble polisher.
Nothing of Importance was found on him.

ST. JOHN REMEMBERS cHAMPE
The Prohibition Leader Sends Gar
nett Editor a Present.

w. P. Champe of the Garnett Agita-
tor, has just passed his 41st milestone
and one of the incidents of the day he
relates as follows:
Wednesday was our 41st birthday,
and we received a small package
through the postoffice. The devil
said it was an internal machine" so
we removed the wrapper very carefully.
Our fears were groundless, however, for
upon removing the wrapper we found
a morocco case, and in the case was
beautiful three bladed poke l1nife. On
one side of the handle is this inscrip-
ton: John p. st. John, Prohibition
Leader, OIathe, KAN and on the other
side are two miniature portraits-one of
the old Prohibition war horse, ex-Gov-
ernor st. John, and theAother of the
kansas Cyclone" Van Bennett
The next mail brought the following
letter:
Olathe, Jan. 20, '97.
My Dear Champe: You have reached
mature years-old enough, at least, to
be trusted with a jack-knife. There
fore, please accept the one sent you
today as q small birthday souvenir.
Let your motto be, 'If you don't want
to be cut, cut from you With my
love and heartiest congratulations.
Ever your friend,
JOHN P. ST. JOHN.
