Austria and Germany Not Friendly to the

LONDON, March l6. = The Vienna
correspondent of The Standard declares
that Austria and Germany sympathize
with Spain. the former being actuated
by family ties between the two reign
ing houses and the latter by a grudge
against the United States. The corre-
spondent adds:
1.-The Chinese question is much more
practical for the United States than
the Cuban, but America has no naval
base III Chinese waters. Why should
not Spain make peace by Offering the
United States q naval station in the
Philippines: Spain would lose nothing
thereby. On the contrary, the United
States would be enabled to act from
that base in conjunction with England
and Japan"

punched and were sent through with a
whoop and rush.
has been specifically Endorsed by the
Democratic state convention, and was
generally Endorsed in advance by the
free silver Republicans. This makes
complete fusion supporting Governor
Leedy and the ticket
Some of the planks of the platform
as first adopted were not found to be
entirely satisfactory to the leaders of
the party, and they were reconsidered.
The hardest fight was on the plank
favoring the repeal of the Metropoli-
tan police law. After discussion
lasting two hours the convention, by
vote of 3s1 for to BOG against, decided
to retain the plank and to demand that
the metropolitan law be Immediately
suspended by the governor and boards
of police commissioners abolished with
out waiting for action on the part of
the legislature.
The resolution providing for state
ownership of stock yards was also re-
considered and discussed at length, but
it was decided that the plank SHOULD
stand as adopted.
The resolution favoring system of
state fire and life insurance provoked
serious opposition on account of its
antagonism of the fraSernal orders. 1t
was finally amended by leaving out
the reference to life insurance and
presiding for state protection against
fire, lightning and tornadoes.
| 1t is stated that Governor Leedy was
not in favor of the resolution passed
by the Populist convention for the i'm
mediate suspension of the metropolitan
police law, but wanted the law re-
ferred to the legislature for uepeal.
The order of suspension will go into
effect July 1, and thereafter the police
administration of the cities of Kansas
City, Atchison, Leavenworth, Fort
Scott, Wichita and Topeka will rest
with the mayor and council.
Immediately after the nomination of
the state ticket, Charles johnson Of
Cowley county introduced a resolution
prepared by Chief Justice Doster, and
: introduced at his request, which was
unanimously adopted. 1t is as fol-
lows:
1--WE are opposed in the crisis of our
TROUBLES with Spain to the talked Of
alliance with Great Britain. 1t is I'M
necessary, unpatriotic and un-Ameri
can. 1t has for it's object the entangle-
ment of this country in the complica-
tons Of international politics and the
imposition upon us of the British mon
etary and commercial systems We de-
clare our ability to maintain our flag
on both land and sea against all pow
ers which dare cross us, without the
aid or cooperation of any other nation
on EARTH"
Short addresses were delivered by
the candidates, after which the con-
vention adjourned.
