only a device to cover up and tide over

also the vigorous enforcement Of our in

large increase to our revenues, the
wedding out Of insOlvent and wildcat in
surance companies and the prompt ad-
1ustment and payment of honest and
just claims, These are only few Of the
many measures and acts OF the pres
ent State administration that can be
pointed to and approved. We especially
congratulate the State administration
upon the tacit Endorsement 1t received
from the Republican party in It's State
convention at Hutchinson on June 8,
1898, wherein 1t failed to see or find
single act Of the administration to con-
denim or criticise.

shortcomings of the present admins

more to relieve the people from oorpO-

TRUE REPUBLICANTSM.
Silver Republicans Model Their Plat
form After the EARLY Declarations
OF the Old Party.

The platform adopted by the silver
Republican State convention is as fol-
lows: THAT we believe the money of
the nation should be issued by the gov
ernment and that gold and silver should
be given equal privileges at the mint
and by the laws Of this country at the
present legal ratio, to 16. That the
coinage Of the silver seignorage, reluc-
family agreed to by Republican House
at the dictation of a silver Senate is a
good step In the right direction and we,
the silver Republicans Of the State Of
Kansas still adhere to the declaration
of principles as enunciated by the Re-
publican party Of Kansas in its State
convention on the 4th day of September,
1890, which declaration reads as follows
The practical operation of silver act
now in force, recently passed by Re-
publican majority and opposed by a
Democratic minority in both houses OF
Congress Is rapidly increasing the value
of silver, is good step in the right di-
rectiOn, but we, the Republicans Of Kan
measure strongly opposed and VigOr-
ously denounced by the late Democratic
administration, led by ex-President
Grover Cleveland
1--WE believe this government is cap
able Of attending to its own affairs with
out the aid Ofany other nation on earth
THAT we believe entangling alliances
with foreign nations to be inimical to
the best interests of this nation and that
the teachings Of Washington, having
proven so wise in the past, should be
strictly observed In the future and for
this reason we are opposed to the sug-
gested AnglO-American alliance.
THAT the Republican party having
obtained an unnecessary bond Issue In
place OF the bimetalism 1t promised to
secure, we demand that the administra-
tiOn proceed to prosecute the present
war which it has so reluctantly under
taken. The pace set by Admiral Dewey
suits us.
I'VE believe that manhood, not
money, should be the controlling factor
in the affairs of this nation and that all
corporate interests should be under
strict government control and to this
end we extend our cooperation to any
party that honestly and fearlessly at
tempts to restore the affairs Of govern
ment to the people.
"The debt this nation can never pay,
is to care for him who has borne the
battle and for his widow and orphans"
Abraham Lincoln.
1--WE believe that the foregoing senti-
ment is as important and binding to-
day as ever, and that 1t should equally
apply to the soldiers called into the
field by the present war.

resumed his remarks upon it. He
pointed out that the entire debt of the

cipal and interest. This, Mr.. Thurston
held. was a piece of good 1nanciering
on the part of the president. who, he
said, was better informed upon the
value CT the road and all the details
bearing uncn that value than any other
othc1a! OF the government, in congress
CT out. He pointed out that if he
sale OF the Kansas Pacific were not
confirmed the president would have 70
other alternative than to redeem the
first mortgage bonds and thus. instead
OF having in the treasury more than
six million dollars as Z result of the
sale, the government would have to
invest about seven millions more in
cash to redeem the first mortgage
bonds, ard then would have or its
hands property that was Of so little
value as COMPARED with what some
senators imagined some single one OF

Daughters of the Revolution.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-This week
will bring to Washington more d;stin-
guished women than have been seen in
this city for some time, their presence
being due to the annual meeting of the
Society of the Daughters of the Revo-
luton, and the next president general
of this society may be Mrs. Daniel
Manning Of Albany, N. Y, a descend
ant of the Schuylers and the Linving-
stons and a woman of national nota-
bility. The members of the national
council in Washington are likely to
endorse Mrs. Manning almost unani-
mously. Mrs Alger, Mrs. John w.
Foster, the wife of eX-Justice Fled,
Mrs. Frye, Mrs. Fairbanks, Mrs.
Mitchell and Mrs. hurston, wives of
the senators, are among the Washing
ton daughters who are identifying
them selves with the campaign of Mrs
Manning. Mrs. Manning, should she
be chosen as president general, is a
typical gentlewoman-gracious but
conservative i'll her tastes; leader of
pleasant entertainings in Albany So
cial circles. but little of club woman
in an old Knickerbocker town, which
is not much given to women's clubs;
active in church work and her chari-
ties. Her dinners are masterpieces Of
the dinner-giving art. and she has the
fine faculty of the ideal hostess for
drawing about her table the choice
sririts in the intellectual life Of the
city-the brilliant women, the distin-
guished men.

SHIP MAGAZINES.
Opinion Is Expressed that They Should
BE Better Protected.

Opinion Is Expressed that They Should
BE Better Protected.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-While
the disaster to the Maine has created
a temper in the house in favor of lib
eral appropriations for the navy, and
while it is undoubtedly true that the
house, in it's present frame Of mind,
would not hesitate to vote for two new
battleships, one to replace the Maine,
the temper is predicated upon the
theory that the Maine was blown up
by external agencies If the result of
the official inquiry should develop the
fact beyond peradventure that the
ships magazine exploded from fire or
other cause within the ship, it is be-
lieved a sentiment in congress will be
created against the expenditure of
millions in the construction of war
ships that may blow up at any time.
1t seems likely that a congressional
investigation will follow report from
the board of inquiry attributing the
loss of the Maine to an explosion of its
magazine. No resolution for this pur-
pose has yet been introduced into the
house however A prominent member
of the house naval committee said he
he was absolutely amazed when he
learned that the Names coal bunk
ers abutted the magazine with only
thin partition between.
when / learned of the fire in the
coal bunkers of the Cincinnati which
charred the boxes in which the shells
in her magazines were stored" said
he, Il did not consider it my duty to
attempt to initiate congressional ac-
ton to avert this danger in con-
struction. I assumed. of course, that
it was the duty of the navy depart
ment officials to effect such changes
as would remove that danger. Now
find that nothing was done to correct
the defect on the Cincinnati or any
other ship-that we will undoubtedly
ascertain how many Of our war ships
are subject to this danger. but L do
not know whether it is advisable to
have a congressional inquiry.

NOT FROM TORPEDO.
Opinion of Prof Aleer of the Ordinance
Bureau.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-The opin-
ion of one of the leading experts IN the
usa cf high explosives, Prof. Alger OF
the ordnance bureau, as to the cause
Of the explosion, is as follows:
"As to the question Of the cause OF
the Names explosion we know that
no torpedo. such as is known in war
fare, can of itself cause an explosion
of the character of that on board the
Maine. We know of no instances
where the explosion of q torpedo or
mine under ships bottom has ex-
pIcded the magazine within. 1t has
simply torn a great hole in the SIDE
CT bottom through which water en-
tered ard in consequence of which
the ship sank. Magazine explosions
On the contrary produce effects eX-
act!v similar tc the effects of the eX-
plcsion on board the Maine.
sWhen it Genes to seeking the cause
of the explosion Of the Names mag
azinc, we should naturally look not
for improbable OR unusual causes, but
those against which we have had to
guard in the past. The most common
OF these is through fire in the bunk
ere. Many of our shiDs have been in
danger at various times from this
cause, and not long ago a fire in the
Cincinnati's bunkers actually set fire
to fittings. wooden boxes, etc. within
the MAGAZINE. and had it not been dis
covered at tho time it. was it would
doubtless have resulted in a catastro-
nhe on hoard that ship similar to the
one on the Maine.
''I shall again enphasize the fact
that no topedo exploded without a shin
has never produced. or according to
Orr knowledge. can produce All eX-
plosicn CT MAGAZINE Within

May Rrinp About a Crisis.

PHILADELPHIA Feb. 21.-The IN
quirer prints under Washington da'e
lengthy dispatch from Robert P.
Porter, ex-superintendent of census,
giving what he believes to be the pol
lev of the administration regarding
Cuba.
Mr. Porter thinks that Spain vii be
asked to allow the Cubans to purchase
their liberty by the issuance of Cuban
bonds, this government to assume the
responsibility of collecting the Gus
toms duties and thus see that the rev.
enues of the government are applied
to the payment of interest on the
bonds.
Concerning the Maine disaster, Mr..
Porter says there is little doubt that
it was blown I'D from without, but it
will be difficult to fasten guilt On the
Spanish authorities. He concludes that
the situation is critical, and that the
coming week may bring ab~ut crisis.
