PARLIAMENTARY INQUIRY.

The Populist members of the House
of Representative at Washington have
petitioned the Speaker asking that they
be recognized as a separate and distinct
party. just as republicans and demo-
Gratis are recognized. AS a sufficient
answer to this petition, it is SAID the
Speaker classes all the opposition men,
bers as one body; and if statement
said to have been made by Mr.. Simpson
is true it will puzzle the petitioners to
satisfy the Speaker that his position is
not the correct one. Jerry is reported
as having said only last week and since
the petition was presented, that st IS
still fight between the gold standard
and the opponents of a contracted cur
rency. The middle of the readers have
been to all intents and purposes assist
ant republicans.
If Simpson is right in saying there is
only one opposition party-thet Popu-
lists are but assistant republicans, what
use is there in his asking to be recog-
niZed as anything else than assistant
democrats, and more especially when
he Classics himself, in the Congress-
lonal Directory las Demo Populist?'

THINGS have come to a pretty pass
when every public improvement and
everything to which the general public
should have access, is capitalized and
bonded from ten to fifteen times the
cost of construction, and the patrons
are compelled to pay interest and divi-
dends on this enormous amount of can
ital. Ii we were to say that this state
OF affairs exists we would be condemned
as falsifer before our paper was dry
from the press THAT is, we would be so
condemned by the average narrow
gagged republican, and we want to
therefore submit authority. 1t will be
found in the following from the Topeka
American:
The Topeka water works cost less
than 100000, were at once ''capitalized''
at 500 900, sold for $500 900 and then
Blended 81 100000. On this amount our
people are compelled to pay interest
and dividends. When we name the
rascals who have brought this situation
about and call them thieves. some deli
'catelY nerved people think we are too
harsh.

CHAIRMAN BUTLER refuses to call a
conference of the Populists as request
ted by the National Reform Press Asso-
citation. lie takes the position that a
conference at this time would not tend
to strengthen the party, but instead,
would promote dissension. AS result
of his decision, the petition system has
been resorted to and If it appears that a
majority of the Populists desire the
conference it will be called regardless
OF the chairman's views. But if it APP
pears that a conference is not desired,
IL Will be dropped. This is the right
way to do business. The people know
what they want and their voice ought
to be law.

CONGRESSMAN w. l.. Greene, in his
late speech, said: "Why, if the people
are too poor to buy the goods now i'm
ported under low tariff, can they be
expected to be able to buy those import
ed under the higher Dingley TARIFF"
And "Why, if the increased importa-
tions under the Wilson tariff do not
produce sufficient revenue TO pay the
expenses of the government, is there
any reason to believe that the smaller
importations under the Dingley tariff
will produce as much revenue as that
produced under the Wilson tariff?''
