Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1899-11-24
Eastern View of Governor Stanley.

The scople OF Kansas are complaining that
their governor is Goa the fy'' so much of the
time that it is hard for people who have bust
ness with the executive to catch him at the
capital. Since the legislature adjourned in
March, lie, has been on one vacation trip to
Texas, a second to Oklahoma, and a third cov-
erng three weeks among the mountains Of
Nyomlng and between times he has been at
tending college commandments, Chautauqua
assemblies, Epworth League conclaves, old SET
tiers reunions, Sunday school conventions,
Grand Army reunions, Christian Endeavor con-
ventions, and gatherings OF various other sorts,
in all parts of Kansas. 1t is recorded that dur
ing June lie attended eighteen such occasions,
within twentyone days, being scarcely seen in
Topeka, and then only between trains, while
he had been at :he state house only five davs
during the first sixteen of September What
gives point to the growing criticism of execu-
tive absenteesm is the fact that Governor
Stanley's predecessor, Leedy, suffered from i'll
health during his last year in office, which fore
ed him to seek medical treatment away from
Stanley not only twitted Leedy for his offence,
but also laid down this platform for himself
"If am elected governor of Kansas, l shall
devote the same time and attention to state af-
fairs that devote to my own business When
people go to Topeka to see me, they will find
me there. My office hours will be all of the
time-New York Post.

IN 1890 AND AGAIN in 1900.
Old-Time Record diEOnfrOntS and EmbarraSSes
the President.

One of the most spirited attacks we have
seen upon McKinley's policy in the Philippines
was made, by anticipation, at the New England
dinner in Philadelphia in 1890. The orator
we refer to rose to eloquent heights in declaring
that "human rights and constitutional privi-
leges must not be forgotten in the race for
wealth and supremacy" Warming to his SUBJ
Ject he went on: ''The government OF the peo-
pie must be by the people, and not by few of
the people; it must rest upon the free consent
of the governed, and all of the governed"
And he fell into tone of solemn warning when
he said: "Power, it must be remembered
which is secured by oppression, or usurpation,
or by any form OF injustice, is soon dethroned.
We have no right in law or morals to usurp
that which belongs to another, whether it is
property or power"
Now, the author of this terrible assault upon
VIM. Mckinley was VIM. Mckinley himself
1t is his New England dinner speech from
which we quote, and it is filled with beautiful
and noble sentiments similar to those we have
cited. There was not, in 1890, more indig-
nant enemy of the policy which President Nc.
Knley is pursueing in 1899 than Congressman
McKinley-that is, as far as words CO. He
used then the precise language about the rights
Of man which is now reasonable disloyalty to
him to utter The very shibboeths of anti-m-
perialists were then falling from his own
lips i'll sonorous periods. This New England
society speech OF his is perfect arsenal of
weapons against himself.
We speak of this simply because it puts the
great Mckinley in very small corner. 1t
does that undoubtedly. The extracts we have
made from his speech could not, it is certain,
be sent to Manila through the mails Under
the mighty Smiths order, they would have to
be excluded as sedtious matter. We thus have
an executive order branding words of the ex-
ecutive DIS reasonable. But the really signih-
cant thing about all this is that there was not
particle of moral conviction in McKinley's
fine words at the time he uttered them. 1t was,
on his part, just a parrot-like repetition of
copy book morality. York Post.

over these creations of his tariff system.

which are to wide too tackle. The result is in
creasing apathy for his party. A toll-gate is

that hero courage which never was aroused ex-
cePt in supreme danger, and then, as Creswell
said to me, Grant just began to think. But
Mckinley ignores the new race.

The idea Of single standard of morals and
honesty for both sexes and for every day of the
week, as touched upon by Mrs. Arnold in her
article to the w. c. T. U. in the Industrial
Brotherhood columns, is correct in principle.

be judged upon its merits or demerits Purity
of thought and action is beautiful wherever
seen and iniquty repulsve. The honesty need
cd on Sunday Is just as much of necessity on

THE Topeka Capital is forced to acknowledge
that nearly every article we have to buy has
advanced i'll price, while the things we have to
sell have not advanced. The cause OF the
trouble is trusts, and, although the Capital
must admit this, it does not dare to make
fight against the trusts. The editor of the
Capital would like to see Mark Hanna, who is
at the head of many trusts, turned down, but
that is something that will not happen, and
the Capital man will have to swallow the bitter
bill, just as he will have to swallow the
Leland pill

"GATH" ON MCKINLEY.

McKiney's personal nature has suffered from
time and inspection. His Whole education
seems to be that of a rustic debating school,
and his chief talent is still advocating one side
without any philosophical grasp of the other
side. Hence, he delights i'll travelling with a
speech. Before he received the nomination for
President l heard the older Ohio politician
William B. Allison, say, eyes, he makes that
speech very we'll, meaning that he had only
one speech-one thought with but single soul,
Allison never satirizes.
Educated to evade in the school of COM
plaisantry, Mckinley is humble to plead, uses
opponents, suppresses his own rejonder, fears
wit, puts responsibility upon on interiors and
reaches out with his one speech for the enthusi
asms of local publics.
When his attention is called to sometime
smart or cogent in his interest, the most any
body can get out of him is dlation OF the
eyes, peculiarly meaning, but unaccompanied
with words.
The result is that the President i'll some quar-
ters is called an adrot politician, but in most
quarters of the East, possibly excepting Penu-
sylvana he has exhausted the grit and citadel
of his character and the consequence falls upon
his party
His denomination is eXpeced, yet undesired,
in New York. There is believed to be nothing
m)rc in him to come out. The personality of
a president is one-half of his influence. For
want Of it President Polk, with all his annex.
ations, received no support for re-nomnaion
and died three months after old Lewis Cass took
his unavailng shoes. A reference to Pok's por
trailshows the lower part of the face to be Nc
Kinleys, with sincercr intellect. Each of
these presidents was engineered into Office be-
tween stronger candidates.
McKiney's juvenilty and squeamshness
and mothers boy appearance drew much sym
pathy. man of his sort, unless eCcles
astic, becomes in time a weakiing, even an inn
posi,or, in the robust life of man.
Apologizng in stump speeches for a policy
of war or annexation, which are i'll the nature
of necessity never was Lincoiu'S way or
Grants. Mckinley argues the issue as if 1t
was necessary to convince himself and Others
were to be convinced. In poiut of fact it is
none af their business, and debating a question
strengthen it. Suppose Chamberlain went over
England making arguments against the Beers
after his army was fighting there What
would we think of him ?
Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1899-11-24

McKinley's second pull for election will call
for yell for Peters pence heretofore unexam-
pied. Hanna begged the public one-eyed in
1896 in 1900 he will want the other eye.
All men but Mckinley can get elected by
their natural forces and the public adm ration.

The opposition to McKinley's Philippine pol
icy is that it does not win. lie is still fighting
an enemy he did not perceive or consider when
the Spanish surrendered. His choice OF COM
manders, his armament and army, his Indian
diplomacy, were all at fault and stigmatize ,he
quality OF his brain.

He begs his way from term to term, as he did

ENGLISH CLOTHES.
Anglomaniacs in Italy Who Buy Suits
From London.

George Ade. who is making tour
of Europe and supplying letters to
the Chicago Record. says:
Wherever there is horse-racing there
you will find English jockeys and
trainers. France may establish the
feminine fashions of the universe
England sets the styles for man and
horse. Wherever you go on the con
tinent the tailors and clothiers adver-
tise London styles, and wherever
horses are driven for show and pleas
ure there you will find carts and
coaches, harness and livery imported
from London. Running horses are
prepared by English trainers and the
races are ridden by English jockeys.
In Naples and other cities of Italy
saw pretentious "turn-outs" that were
supposed to be strictly according to
the best English form. but every one
of them demonstrated that an Italian
cannot become an Englishman by buy
ing an English horse and an English
cart and wearing an English coat, In
every instance the English smart
ness and sincerity were missing. The
horse did not seem TO have a thorough
understanding with the fidgety man
at the reins. who usually seemed over
topped by hat and ashamed of his
clothes. English garments never did
and never will fit any human being.
but they look well on an Englishman
They were intended for him and him
alone. He is accustomed TO them and
can wear them without being consci-
Gus that he is in costume.
But the Italian cannot be an Eng

and hold a clean, straight ribbon. The

TWO SOLDIERS ASSAULTED WAS LOST ON MAUNA NA.

Men Have Their Wounds Dressed at
the Station House and are Return
ed to Camp-A Stowaway.

Two artillery men of Post Honolulu
were assaulted near the Central Fire
Station Fort and Beretania streets
shortly after midnight and quite badly
beaten. The scalp Of one of them was
laid open and it was at first thought
his wounds might prove serious.
The assailant of the two men is al
most certainly known. All three stood
under down town light and talked
until just after midnight. There were
some words. The citizen left, and the
soldiers followed to join him for a fight
back of the fire house When turning
into the shadow of the station both
soldiers were struck down. A heavy
walking cane was the weapon used
A night patrolman heard the noise
and ran to the scene. The assailant
had escaped on the ground was found
piece of the cane used. The soldiers
were taken to the police station, whore
their wounds were dressed They We're
sent to camp early this morning.
If the soldiers choose to swear out a
warrant the suspected wielder
will be arrested
Captain Dick Bowers captured a
prize last night in the shape of SOL
dier, behind whom is evidently a mys-
terry. The fellow is in infantry dress.
He is suspected of being deserter, al
though he claims to have received a
dlScharge some time ago on the MAIN
land and to have slowed away for He
nolulu.
Last night Captain Bowers learEe /
that the soldier was selling quantities
of army equipment. and set about to
investigate. He came on the fellow
just after he had parted with a bayo-
net and belt for the handsome sum of
40 cents. The man was arrested AMI
locked up. This morning the case was
r.,
termaster, who will investigate.
There is a suspicion that some of the
plunder disposed of by the man was
stolen or otherwise procured from local
artillery men. This matter is also be-
ing inquired into.
