Apnur The Pittsburg Kansan
VSTSSS TTS (Pop.): Stanley says the

them. He'll soon be in hot water II he
does.
Clay Center Dispatch (Rep.): Mr..
Stanley and his cabinet move into
clean house. Let them see to it that 1t
is kept clean.
Norton Champion: The election OF
Pnigree by $4,000 in Michigan shows how
popular Populist principles may some
times become when labeled Republican.
Clay Center Dispatch (Pop): The cold,
hard fact remains that the present Pop
ulist administration, with all its mis-
takes is the best the State has ever had
or has in immediate prospect.
Lawrence World (Rep): One trouble
with our Populists friends is that they
are not consecutive. They do not stay
everlastingly at it. They should find
some cardinal principle Of faith and stick
by it.
Lebanon Journal (POp): Corporation
lobbyists will not be so numerous at
Topeka this winter. The Legislature
just elected by big majority will be in
the hands of its friends, the big cOrpo-
ratiOns that elected them.
Hutchinson Bee (SilVer Rep.): There
will be no unbrOken promises by the
coming State administration. The plat
form on which 1t was elected made none
whatever, nor did its candidates, so no
one will be disappointed with W. Eu-
gene.
Olathe Tribune (Pop): Stanley as
sured the people of Wichita on election
IND VHTith
their city governmental affairs but
would let them run things to suit them
selves He wouldn't say that during the
campaign.
Girard News (Pop): The result shows
the fusion forces the folly Of continuing
the triple alliance, and it should be to
them a trumpet call to Teorganize for
the contest of 1900, enabling them to see
the wisdom of such movement and the
danger Of delay.
Wichita Beacon Dem): "Populism in
Kansas is now dead, remarks the
Hutchinson News in joyful tone. If
the News lives long enough 1t will find
that Populism has about as many lives
as the last soldier who fought with
Napoleon at Waterloo"
Wichita Beacon (Dem): Governor
Stanley is manifesting one OF his weak
nesses already. He refuses to speak to
some of his Wichita neighbors who
didn't vote for him. If Mr.. Stanley keeps
that up he will be the worst "guyed" man
in Kansas within six months.
Belleville Freeman (Pop): The man
who voted and was defeated by the op-
posing forces has no reason to find fault
with himself He did his duty. It is the
fellow who stayed at home who shall be
troubled in his conscience. ,'Tis better
to have voted and lost than never to have
voted at all.
Lawrence World (Rep.): The idea Of
caricaturing politicians is so new in
Kansas politics that the fellows are max
ing fuss about it. They are making
fools of themselves In the East man
is not considered to amount to much un-
til some comic picture has been made
of him. The comic idea is not bad and
1t will last.
Wichita Commoner (Pop): The par
ty out of power is always talking Of abOl-
ishing something The Republicans have
been talking of abolishing the board Of
charities and the board Of pardOns and
a lot of other boards, but they will not.
To create some new boards would be
more in harmony with the past record
of that party.
Lebanon Journal (Pop): The new
GOvernor-elect talks mighty purity"
Talks like real elegant gentleman, but
he hasn't been Governor yet. In fact,
he talks like Populist, but when boss
Cy takes twist on him the change will
be as wonderful as the change Of the
whole Republican party from a double
to single money standard in one night.
Garden City Sentinel (Pop): BY their
ballots the people of this great common
wealth said last Tuesday that the mag
