The president cannot write the gold
standard indeiihiy In law" that is the
prerogatfve OF congress
The president can only retrace his
steps in the civil service matter by
deliberately rejecting the recommsa6a-
lions OF the heads OF departments, who
have given most excellent reasons why
some offices should be exempt from re-
strictfons which are admirable in cleri-
cal and routine Offices
The president has promptly removed
consuls against whom evidence Of unfit
ness has been brought; The reform of
our consular service is one of the meas
ures Mckinley has urged upon congress

operation" that is a chlmera. All the

full control OF this government have
been most generously used, bat elem
eney and cooperation are not what
Aguinaldo wants. And since congress
ordered the purchase of the islands.
and they are now part of our posses
sions, 1t Is the presidents duty to sup
press an instruction against our au-
thority.
Yet 1t is upon such charges that the
mugwump press assail Mckinley and
the Republican party, bewail the fate
OF the nation, and give aid and counte-
nance to Bryan, Aguinaldo and the free
silver movement, which the Post and
its echo, Carl Schurz. know to be a
vicious menace to the interests OF this
nation.

Of the details as afforded by the coun-

The Kansas farmer had been very un-

In Wichita county tho Republicans
carried every ward In the city, for the
first time since Populisns became a rec

this year the entire Republican ticket
was chosen by maJorities running from
