England is the creditor nation OF the

ciary Of the single gold standard which
means dear money and cheap property,
but the republican party in 1896 de-
clarcd against the gold standard, but
made the condition Of getting rid OF 1t
that England consent to the re-estab-
lishment OF bimetallism. President
McKinley's first net was to send the
Wolcott commission abroad to obtain
England's consent. Suppose we should
disband our army and send our navy
on whaling trip to the north seas,
and then send commission to Spain
to induce her to give up Cuba, Porto

would be about as reasonable and

STAND UP FOR KANSAS.
GOV. LEEDY DEFENDS THE
. STATE AT VALLEY FALLS.
The Best Way to Stand up for Kansas is
TO Tell tho People of the Admins
tration of the Affairs OF tho state by
the Populists.

The populist state campaign was OPP
ened by Governor Leedy at Valley
Falls last Thursday. In his speech he
said thai he did not propose to give at
tention to national politics in the pres
emit campaign to any greater extent
than would DO necessary in discussing
state affairs. He said that he had felt
like criticising some things that had
been done by the war department but
that he had withheld all the public
criticism until the war was over In Or
der that he might not, in any way,
embarrass the administration in its
conduct Of the fight with Spain. He
stated that In his opinion s, cretary
Alger had permitted the making OF
government contracts which were det-
rimental to the public interest and
through which contractors were en-
abled to profit greatly, and he pointed
out that when similar conditions eX-
listed in Camerons administration in
the early part Of the Civil war that
Lincoln promptly removed him. He
thought that President Mckinley had
failed to pursue the same course for
the reason that he lacked the moral
courage to shake off the men who had
contributed to his election and who
hoped to profit thereby and were now
doing us. The governor planted him
self squarely on his record and plainly
told the people that he desired to be
judged by it and il they felt like APP
proving his work that he hoped for a
In reply to the criticism
of his action in not accepting the mill
tia as body he said that the average
militia company was not recruited to
IT'S full strength and that IL it were it
would be much smaller in numbers
than the companies required under the
Presidents call and that he did not be-
lieve that 1t would be right to organ
lie companies, fully one-half of which
would be new men without giving
these men an opportunity to have a
voice in the selection OF officers under
whom they would have to serve. OF
course, at the same time, the militia
men, who were given the preference,
were given the same privilege to vote
ON the election OF the officers. The
governor called attention to the fact
TINT in the second call the war de-
partment had taken the same position
with reference to the MALTA which he
took In the organization of the troops
under the first call. When the first
volunteers were being recruited the
mastering officer declined to accept
certain officers who happened to be
pensioners, who had been chosen by
the men The governor said he felt
that these men who were now able to
go to the front again should not be
prohibited from going simply because
they happened to be on the pny roll.
After lie had announced his intention

There was lurch of the boat--a cry
"a splash-a call for help-and tho
party were struggling In the water.
Lake Wlnnepesaukee has witnessed
may z tragedy, but none sadder than
the drowning OF young man whose
mamie ought not to be forgotten, z. +.
Giddlngs Of Boston.
He was one OF the summer philan-
thropists who sacrifice their own vaca-
lions that they may give help and re-
creation to others. This young man
had taken charge OF party of boys
who needed friends and while bravely
trying to save one of them from death
he lost his own life.
Some time ago Mr.. Glddlngs had de-
clded to devote himself to the culture
OF boys, just as some people spend
their lives In the culture OF roses or
OF bees. To conquer q m, lose dlspo-
sltlon, to bring out unsupported no
bility In desperate nature, to mako q
man OF brute-such an endeavor was
OF more interest to him than anything
else in the world. II was his horizon

plness.
At the time OF his death Mr.. Cid
dlngs was devotlns himself, body and
soul, to the moral, religious and phys
ical development Of the young people.
under his care. All Of them had been
born under adverse conditions. There,
on the shores Of the lake, beautiful
transformations were taking place, with
none but God and nature to observe
the marvel. But few observers grow
tired of watching an ugly caterpillar
change into a gorgeous butterfly. How
much more intense is the interest In
watching a repulsive character change
into an attractive one.
BY his close association with success
siye groups Of city boys, to whom the
beauties OF nature and of character
were sealed books, Mr. Giddings be-
came skillful and impressive inter-
prefer OF the good and the elevatlng,
In the souls that were under his charge,
as well as Of what was beautiful in
nature about him. II was when his
method was no longer an experiment.
and when his future was full OF prom
lse Of great and peculiar usefulness,
that his last act OF self-abandonment
took place. Without a moments hesl-
tatlon he gave up his life for the least
OF those for whom he lived.
No man can do more than that. He
died hero's death. And yet, is that
the Anal test Of the highest achieve,
ment? The heroic sacrifice, the self
forgetfulness of this man, began long
before the fatal leap for rescue. 1t is
more heroic to give life than to give
death. The creating of q new phllan-
thropy; persistence In 1t despite ur-,
gent protests; the silent conquerlng of
opposition by consistent adherence TO
principle, and by faith that even the
meanest soul is worth q lifetime OF pa,
tlent and loving study to save--these
are the qualities Of the highest heroy
ism, Of which the final sacrifice OF
this Christlike man was only the ma
tural flower.
Such patient, godllke endeavor comes
within the province of every one OF usA
We need not run to the shore or to the
woods; our nelghborhood will furnish
many gnarled characters to straighten,
many turbulent heart into which the
divine life may enter.

Washington Star; The sword to be
presented to Admiral Dewey, under the
act of congress providing for this spe-
clal mark Of distinction for his BRAY
cry at Manila, will be one Of the most
beautiful weapons ever made. AL
ready the artistic ingenuity of the best
swordmakers and jewellers OF the coun-
try, and, indeed, OF the entire world,
has been excited, and the navy depart
ment has already more than fifty de-
signs for the Dewey sword" They
are marked by great beauty of design,
some Of the blades being wrought with
figures emblematlc OF the famous bat
tie In Manila bay, while the hilt and
scabbard Of steel, gold and silver are
studded with jewels and highly
wrought marine emblems, such as Nep-
tunes, dolphlns, mermalds, capstans,
anchors, etc. Thus far the depart
ment has not taken up the matter or
selecting design. The board to Sc
lect the design will probably consist
of Acting Secretary Allen, Senator
Lodge of Massachusetts,, and one of
the professors Of the Annapolis Naval
Academy. The same board will de-
eide upon the designs for the medals
which Congress has authorized as a

Of standing by the old soldier the Sec
rotary OF the war decided that he
would not interpose further objections
and the veterans who had been elected
to mil itary places were promptly mus
tered in. lie pointed to the fact that
in recommending n Kansan for APP
pointment as brigadier general that
he had waived all political considera-
tons and had given his endorsement
and active support to man who had
been for years recognized as fully cap
able of filling the position. He had
recommended General Hudson because
he said he knew he could and would
fight and that he would maintain the
honor and good name Of Kansas. He
called attention to the charges made
against him because OF the lack OF suf-
Rcient equipments and clothing for the
boys Of the Twentieth Kansas, and
pointed out that when he turned these
troops over to the government that his
responsibility for them ended and that
II the rations furnished and the cloth
ing provided were unsatisfactory and
unserviceable that the fault was with
the war department as it was its duty
to provide for the boys in this respect
He pointed out that ii was his policy
to give the citizens all of the rights
and privileges which the law did not
prohibit them from having but that ho
was disposed to insist that corpora
tions should be limited to powers and
privileges which were expressly given
to them by the law and that no addi-
tional rights should be given them and
that they should be prevented from
assuming such rights, He said that
railroad rates should be reduced, that
q system which would etfectually pre-
vent the giving OF rebates should be
adopted and that railroad companies
should be prohibited from mortgaging
their property for more than its cost.
Ii railroads were TO be permitted 10

sufficient to cover operating expenses
and q percentage on the capital invest.
ed and this capital was made to include
all Indebtedness, 1t is right that the
public should insist tnat this indebted
ness should be confined to the actual
value of the property AS an instance
of the evil of the present methods he
pointed out that n road when ran
through Valley Falls had been APP
praised at 100000 sold for $6OO,OO
and 1t was then Immediately mort
gagged for $3,500,0O0 The people are
being charged in the shape Of excessive
freight rates sufficient amounts to pay
the interest ON this enormous fictitious
value. He also called attention to the
fact that the Union Pacific which had
recently been sold under similar eli.
cumstances had been mortgagcd for
$40, 200, 900 more than was paid for 1t.
These things led him to believe that
the law should provide that no mort
gage could be recorded until the rail.
road commissioners had decided that
the mortgage was not in excess of the
value of the property. lilo said that
populists did not desire TO destroy the
railroads but to regulate them. They
should be our servants and not our
masters. Governor Leedy was greeted
by large and enthusiastic crowd,
whose reception plainly indicated that

II is a simple dictate Of prudence tc
invest in property that is increasing In
value and avoid investments In all
forms Of property that are declining In
value. The fact that moro than a bill
lion and quarter of dollars have re-
Gently been rendered for three per
cent government bonds instead Of
seeking investment In business or real
estate, is evidence that the meaning OF
the gold standard is understood by
large number of our people. Under
the gold standard money will continue
to grow scarce and dear and property
correspondingly cheap, therefore bonds
which call for specific number Of
dollars as interest and principal will
grow fatter each day while all other
forms Of property arc growing lean.
