SHOULD pEFFER HAVE A SECOND TERM'

The PopuEist party was organized
among other things, as protest
against existing conditions and the
methods of officers In power. People
were dissatisfied and wanted q change.
The movement was received with
favor on the part of the common peo
ple. The favored few antsgonized It,
Their influence was used TO pull down
men placed on guard by the people.
With few exceptions these efforts to
disCredit the representatives OF the
people resulted In failure.
In Kansas the party has been quite
fortunate. Kansas people, ever intel
liRent and progressive, took kindly to
the movement fol- reform. In 1880
ave Congressman and Senator were
sent to Washington to do their part to
bring about an administration of gov
eminent affairs which would bring re-
lief to the people. In the Congress
sional delegation were Jerry Simpson,
John Davis, William Baker, Ben
Clover and John G. Otis. These men
made creditabIe records, Notwith-
standing the fact that an avalanche OF
ridicuIe was hesped on these men,
Messrs. Simpson, Baker and Davis
were renominsted and reelected by
their people. Their records we're In
line with their promises to the people
The people, having been represented
for years by men who gave little at

an indicator ring; the voter places the ring
over the name Of his candidate and this

PROVE ALL THINGS AND HOLD FAST TO
THAT WHICH Is GOOD.


Good doctrine that. Through it's ap-
plication in the affairs Of everyday life,
we acquire wisdom. During the late
campaign we were told from every Re-
publican platform and paper that VIC
tory for 'sound money and Mckinley
would be followed Immediately by re-
turn Of confidence with resulting pros
perity. Factories were to open, idle peo-
pie would be set at work, and bust
ness would revive as by magic. These
things, OF course, could not be perma-
nent without appropriate legislation;
but that would follow in due time, and
the waiting for Congress to act would
occasion no break in the wave Of pros
perity, because the fact of McKinley's
success would of itself be so assuring
that enterprise would bound ahead and
let legislation come along leisurely.
Now we shall have abundant oppor-
tunity to study some things and to prove
them if they are provable, and we will
thus be enabled to select the good things
which we will want to retain.
Two things were plainly promised:
First, that Republican victory would
be Immediately followed by such a res
toration Of confidence as would at once
revive business and put the people at
work; and second, that a protective
tariff which surely would be enacted,
would continue the prosperity already
begun.
The first has already been proven a
failure. Here comes the Philadelphia
Item, saying:
Some method must at once be devised to re-
lieve the horrible suffering Of impoverished
people unable to get work or unable.to do 1t IL
they get it. A New York paper says that care
full inquiries among unions, etc., put the num-
Der of unemployed workers, without counting
their families dependent upon them, In New
York city alone, at not less than 10000; and
shoals arriving every week from abroad. And
&: this same paper continues that the same per-
3 centage Of idle workers exists In all parts OK
y the United States. This means, II correct, that
y there are nearly million union and other
Q hands unemployed to-day in all parts OF the
9 country who would gladly accept work at liV-
"a log wages IL they could get it, 1t means more
lt 1t is low allowance when two persons to each
II worker are counted as depending upon him
< for subsistence or total Of about II million
10 people In this country who are more or less
of starving and unable to pay for the bsrest
g. necessities Of life.
't This number is too large, we think
., - But the newspapers in all parts OF the
,s country are calling attention to the
n. necessities OF the poor. Relief organizs
es tions are actively at work in all the largel
.. .. cities, and charity balls and othel
n. n means of raising funds for the need!
N. are reported in smalle rpIaces. Th'
er truth is, great many Of the peo
10 10 pie are in need Of help. The elec
ed tion of Major Mckinley did not brinl
to relief any more than prayer bring
es potatoes.
ny AS to projections effect, we shall know
- more later.

nation or Mr.. Simpson LnAh yonr AOI Eho
fourth time. These things were done
because the people appreciated and
desired the service Of officials who had ,
been tried and found not wanting.
MessrS. Otis and Clover were not so
fortunate. Some objection to Mr..
Cloyer'S record was made and he failed
TO secure q denomination. In Mr..
Otis case, the Republican press mis-
represented and belIttled him 80 per-
sistently that sufficient opposition
arose to prevent his nomination
In the case of the Senator elected
there has been no serious objection
made to his record or conduct as an
officer. He has been criticised for In
PRODUCING bills which were character
lied as wild and visionary; yet II the
record Is examined 1t will disclose the
fact that the bills introduced were In
line with what the people whom ne
represents were demanding at the time
of their introduction. 1t Is stated that
he has accomplished nothing. Most
any reading Populist knows better
than that. Most anyone knows that a
minority party having but six of ninety
members in q legislative body can &c.
cure the passage of very little 1t any
legislation. This is particularly true
where large part Of the representa-
tives of other parties are opposed to
the demands of the minority party.
It is admitted that, when the Senator
was q member of the Kansas Senate
and his party was In the majority, he
was able to secure legislation for his
constituents. 1t Is admitted by the
critics that his record has been more
satisfactory of late years than early In
his term. II this is true, 1t Is due tC
the fact that experience In Legislative
affairs has better enabled him to per
, form his duty and do good work fol
! his constituents. If this is true, it II
reasonable to presume that during
q second term he could and would d
, even better work. In the case OF
new man, all the time spent In scquir
inR experience and acquaintance will
public work would have to be tskel
2 up before the most practical worl
could be done. Senator Pefe
4 took his place almost alone In tn
q Senate and has fought the battle
o of Popullsm in a way which has wo
. the respect Of men of all parties. ID
! has done this under continual fire froI
!. the old party press, q systematic effON

o It would seem from the action

10 whose record is satisfactory to q SO
Il. ond term. This rule seems to hay
