the Republicans have dubbed mere

creased majOrities in their respective

thing against him, and there are argu-

No Republican has yet dared to assert
that the Peoples party will not carry out
the pledges Of the platform; this has not
been asserted against the Republicans,
either, simply because they made the as
sertiOn unnecessary by not making any
promises, with the exception of an i'm
piled promise to follow Leland's dictates
and not modest the law-breaking cor
porations. It is certain that the declara-
tions set forth in the Peoples party plat
form will be carried out according to the
spirit of the convention that framed
them. There is every indication, too,
that the wobbling, broken-down Repub-
lican machine will again be kicked aside
next month and Kansas will move for

under an honest and capable govern
ment of the people through the medium
of the Peoples party.

DUTY DETERMINES DESTINY.
"The war with Spain was undertaken not
that the United States should increase it's ter
rItOry, but that oppression at our very doors
should be stopped. This noble sentiment
should continue to animate us, and we must
give to the world the full demonstration of
the sincerity of our purpose.
"Duty determines destiny. Destiny which
results from duty performed may bring SDx-
iety and perlls, but never failure and dis
honor. Pursuing duty may not always lead
by smooth paths. Another course may look
easier and more attractive, but pursuing duty
for duty's sake is always sure and safe and
honorable.
GUIDING HAND OF PROVIDENCE.
"It is not within the power OF man to
foretell the future and to solve uner-
ringly its mighty problems. Almighty
God has His plans and methods for hu-
man progress, and not infrequently they
are shrouded for the time being in i'm
penetrable mystery. Looking backward
we can see how the hand of destiny
builded for us and assigned us tasks
whose full meaning was not apprehended
even by the wisest statesmen Of their
times.
Our colonial ancestors did not enter
upon their war originally for indepen-
dence. Abraham Lincoln did not start
out to free the slaves, but to save the
union The war with Spain was not Of
our seeking, and some Of it's conse-
quences may not be to our liking Our
vision is often defective. Short-sighted- |
ness is common malady, but the closer
we get to things or they get to us the |
clearer our view and the less obscure our
duty.
Patriotism must be faithful as we'll |
as fervent; craftsmanship must be wise |
as well as fearless-nOt the statesman
ship which will command the applause |
of the hour, but the judgment Of pos
terity.
"The progress of a nation can alone |
prevent degeneration. There must be |
new life and purpose or there will be
weakness and decay. There must be
broadening of thought as we'll as broad
ening of trade.
EXPANSION NOT NECESSARY.
Territorial expansion is not alone and |
always necessary to national advance
ment There must be constant move
ment toward higher and nobler civil
ization, civilization that shall make |
it's conquests without resort to war and |
achieve it's greatest victories pursuing |
the arts of peace.
'In our present situation duty-and |
duty alone-should prescribe the boun-
dary of our responsibilities and the
scope Of our undertakings.
"The final determination of our pur-
poses awaits the action Of the eminent
men who are charged by the executive
with the making Of the treaty Of peace,
and that Of the Senate Of the United
States, which, by our constitution, must
ratify and confirm it. We all hope and
