laration against the organization and
existence of the trust, and legislative
and executive action tending to their
determination.
"Fifth-We hereby express our con-
tinued confidence in William Jennings
Bryan and favor his nomination for
the presidency in 1900"
With a glowing eulogy, President
Tarvin then introduced Hon. George
Fred Williams of Massachusetts, who
was given the most enthusiastic recep-
ton of the evening.
In the course of his speech, Mr.. Will
Jams said: I'm the question of select
ing leader for our political party we
must not take into consideration the
desires of state, but the needs of a
nation. Every great reform begins
with resistance. Some man, or some
men, are found who dare and the rest
come. Reforms come quickly when
the public mind and the nations need
demand them. All history shows that
no man can measure the progress of re-
form when justice demands it and men
are ready to support it.
Within the last century materialism
has taken possession of that party
which was originally established to de-
fend the peoples rights. The doctrine
which we espouse is secondary to the
spirit in which we work 1t is because
of the fact that a doctrine needs
looking after, whether it's effect be for
good or for evil.
our party has no quarrel with capt.
tai, but when capital selects special
privileges of the law it ceases to be
capital and falls into class of capt.
ta!lsm. 1t is against this that the free
coinage issue is directed. 1t may be
that some will take issue with me,
when 1 say that 1 think the time is
almost at hand when the cause of BIZ
metallism should be relegated to a Sec
ondary position.
THE democratic party furnishes a
long history of betrayals in its ranks
and it seems as if the enemy, by ap-
pearing to agree with us on questions
affecting us very vitally, are really
planning very sophistical trap for U.S.
We are in the midst of foes and must
be wary. Caution and courage are
most needed in our present political
situation.
1T should be fully understood that
every democratic voter who casts a
vote in the next national campaign,
casts it for free coinage of silver at
Is to l. 1t is neither just nor honor
able to the party cause to nominate a
man who will not stand squately upon
every plank in it. We should, even in
minor elections, find out these men and
use every effort to defeat them.
'The day is at hand for the exposing
of the political humbug of sound
money and when that unveiing comes,
some of the republicans beware. Ours
is the glorious duty Of taking up the
weapon which providence has placed in
our hands.
I'm 1896 we were unpractised in our
great work, but now we feel that we
see the light and are moving toward
glorious consummation of our prin-
ciples."

ANTI-STRlKE BILL.
One of the Emperor's Pet Measures in
the Reichstag.

the Reichstag.
Berlin, June 1.-The reichstag, con-
trary to expectations, received the anti
strike bill to-day. Its provisions are
now less stringent than the emperor at
first intended.
The measure provides that whoever
threatens to forcibly prevent persons
from going to work will be sentenced
to a maximum of a years imprison-
ment. Where there are extenuating
circumstances a fine of 1000 marks will
be imposed. The same punishment will
be meted out to those who threaten a
boycott to compel employers or en-
ployes to desist from work or who, dur
ing a lockout try to force employers
or employees to yield to their demand,
or whoever threatens to maltreat or
otherwise molest non-strikers.
The bill is not likely to pass before
the adjournment of the reichstag, and
it is not likely to pass at ell, in its
present shape.

A Washington special to the Kansas

These men relate some incidents in
connection with the war that have
not been published.
They say that General Otis issued
an order prohibiting any discharged
soldiers from engaging in business
during their stay in the islands. As
a result, they assert, a number OF
Americans who were dishonorably
discharged for some misconduct or
other, finding themselves stripped OF
all means Of support and unable to
return to their homes, joined the in
surgent army and were among the
most stubborn fighters the Filipinos
possessed. They would occasionally
appear on the picket line of former
comrades at night and exchange
threats, but as general thing they
were made a target for American
sharpshooters and quite a number OF
them were killed. But nothing was
said about it publicly.
General Otis finally offered them
return passage home and good many
left the insurgents to 60 back to the
United States.
ln consequence Of this and other
orders, the Montana men declare.
General OILS is not popular with the
troops. Many of the men 10 the west.
