the sales were well absorbed. and prices
regained part of the refractionary loss.

A Popullst Editor Asks Leedy a Pointed
Question-Why Not Call = special Sos
sion Of the LsglalAtureY

Walter Costigan, the well-known
populist editor, asks Gov. Leedy ques-
ton which will strike everybody as
being full Of good sense, as follows;
III the principles laid down in the To.
peka platform are SO near and dear to
the populist heart, why don't you call
Especial session Of the legislature this
fall and adopt them into law? You
now have absolute control Of all
branches of the state government, and
II these principles are such grand
things why run the chance Of an ad.
verse election? Why not make them
into laws now? This may be your only
chance for sometime,
1.-THE fact is the administration
doesn't intend to carry out the pledges
in that platform any more than it did
the pledges Of the Abilene platform.
If 1t intended to- Leedy knows that
not single democrat in Kansas would
vote for him this fall. The platform
means nothing. II so many things
need rcmedying the populists should
remedy them now, while they have
the legislature. Not single plank in
the Abilene platform was carried out,
and not single one in the Topeka
platform will be carried out in the
event Of populist success. II the legis-
lature attempted to carry out one Of
them, Leedy would veto the bill"
