State.


Marion Butler Does Not Own That
y. r. SossamOn, editor of the Char
lotte Peoples Paper, has been appointed
provisional chairman OF the Middle-of-
the-Road Populists of North Carolina.
While we do not agree with Brother
Sossamon on the course Populists
should pursue in national affairs, yet
we cannot help admiring his independ-
ence OF thought and action. We take it
TOR granted he is doing what he hon
estly believes to be the best for the
party. But will he be equally as fair
with Senator Butler and those who be-
heve with Senator Butler that the re-
form forces should combine under Bry-
ans leadership, and present a solid
front against the common enemy OF our
principles ?"-Hickory Mercury.
Yes, sir; we have been appointed
provisional chairman of the Middle-of.
the-Road Populists of North Carolina.
We are proud to know that there ia
enough of sure-enough Populists in
North Carolina to make necessary for
q Middle-of-the-Road organization. We
honestly believe we are doing what is
best for the party, and there are
thousands of others in the state who
believe with US. Yes, sir; we will allow
Senator Butler and his believers to act
as they please. If they believe w. ].
Bryan, Nebraska Democrat, and G.
A. Towne, lifelong Minnesota Re
publican, they put up for president and
vice-president, are Populists we have
no objections, but we are too short
sighted to see where the Populists come
in in that deal. Guess they get a part
of the cahoot. We burnt the bridge
when we left the Democratic party and
we don't propose to help them back into
power; and there are 1900, 900 of the
same kind of fools in America, as the
election returns will show next fall

should the precedent established be-
come recognised q a valuable one
most amusing condition will arise in the
political affairs Of this country. GETTING
together In national convention for the
sole purpose Of Nominating for Office
only those who belong to other political
organisations would certainly revolu-
tionise things in this republic. 1t is
hardly likely, however, that the Demo-
cratic party will ever sacrifice its organ
lied appetite to it's generous impulses
and recipr0cate the action of the Sioux
Falls convention. It goes without say
Ing that the only political favors which
the Populists will ever receive from
their Democratic Conductors will be in
the shape of cold, hard cash. To the
gentlemen who operated the Sioux Falls
convention no other inducement could
appeal with greater force than the Dem
ocratic political methods of Montana.
The taste Of such methods, SO long en-
1oyed In the shape of a monthly salary
by Charlie Towne-the nominee for vice.
Observation-Disclosures reflects it's in
huence upon the political gathering in
Dakota yesterday.
The convention was controlled by
such men as James b. Weaver, Tom
Patterson and Sockless Jerry Simpson

ROSTERS as ever had their tail feathers
dampened in storm. Some time prior

with others, met at the Sherman House
In Chicago and cooked up the entire
program that was finally carried out.
The convention merely ratified the
action previously taken by the swiftest
set OF demagogues that ever planned the
downfall OF nation. 1t is impossible
to point to leader in that body who
does not enjoy political reputation of
doubtful color and unreliable lineage.
Little wonder that the convention be-
trayed it's true character as a Bourbon
sideshow, exhibiting under separate can
vas, but with the same ownership.
Fortunately for the reputation of the
country, the political hacks who manip-
ulated it. and who are playing their last
card for the crumbs which Democracy
may throw to them, do not represent the
Populists of the nation. The leaders of
the Sioux Falls convention are merely a
political side issue, trailing after the
Democratic craft like sharks after
half-scuttled ship with a dead man on
board The real Populist party met at
Cincinnati and nominated the brainiest
men which that organization has yet
produced for president and vice-presi-
dent of the United States.

The Sioux Falls Democrats in trv,nR
to save themselves from ridicule made
their laughable position most contempt
Idle by their nominating a Republican
for vice-president. They called them
selves Populists; then they nominated
for president the most. noted Democrat
in the land and for president one
OF the best known Republicans. Their
platform was submitted to the editor Of
the Democratic press bureau, who modi-
fed it to suit his views. All in all, the

(NeWS, J0l10ts Ill.,
This division of the Populists may seem
unwise or foolish to some. and more or less
discouraging, but after all the people need
time for education and perhaps progress ia
being made fast enough. Reforms are a
rising tide. They never recede from view.
Some waves are lower than others, but at
the end Of every epoch higher beach lines
are established upon the landscape.
Government by the people grows steadily
in favor the world over. This morning the
Chicago Tribune reviews the latest advance
in Glasgow. public telephone system has
been established in that city owned by the
people, with rates cheaper than any known
for cities of that size. And the city already
owns its own street car system, navigation
lines. also It's gas. electric lights. water.
market places, slaughter house, tenement,
lodging house, public bath, ETC.
Chicago itself is building its own electric
light plant and from the antipodes comes
more reform in land ownership, in taxation,
railroad building and other people enter
prises than a Populist ever dreamed Of.
Nearly year ago conference was held
at Buffalo of all kinds Of political reformers,
college professors. librarians. social settle
ment residents, clergymen, to discuss the
question, What to do next" And IL the
plans of the committee are not changed,
next year they will discuss 'How to do
It," No better conference was ever held in
America, counting 1nteiH8ence, patriotism

Edminston, of Nebraska, says Towne
is too big man to act as Tom Watson
did four years ago. This is indeed COM
plimentary to Watson, and the thous-
ands Of loyal PopURists who stood by
him because they believed his firmly
standing where he had been placed by
his party in convention, against the
most trying odds over which man has
ever been nominated, was the only hope
of any foundation stone Of the party Of
the people being left upon which to re-
build the structure fusion was tearing
down. No Populists are going to be
deluded by the cant of such demagagues
as Edminston or Towne. There was ne
more Populism in the Sioux Falls con-
vention or the leading spirits who had

affair than there Ia In Mark Hanna or

Dear Sir: Please allow me to congrat-
ulate you on your nomination to the
vice-presidency of the United States of
America.
There is now chance of the genuine
Populist ship sailing out of the corrupt
waters of fusion and into the clear and
pure water Of actual Populism, which
all honest men have worked to build I'D.
in the coming campaign. You will find
thousands of men in line fighting for
true reform whom you would little ex-
pect now. Among which you will find
bankers, who put honesty and love for
suffering humanity above selfish in
terest-that is. when 1t comes to choos-
ing between two systems of finance,
while nearly all bankers will take ad-
vantages of the privileges accorded un-
der the present system 1--WE have to keep
our heads above the water of the NAL
strom created by the Republican partly.
Not all will be ignorant or knaves
enough to contend that we have the best
financial system possible to create.

The Situation.

Out of the tangled web of contradict
lions in which the Republican
party has involved itself arise
number of bewildering queries
When is citizen of the
United States not a citizen? The Re-
publican answer must be. when he is q
Filipino or Porto Rican. When is q
United States port not port of the
United States? Again the Republican
answer must be, when it Is a port in
the Philippines or Porto Rico. Can a
man be rebel guilty of treason"
under the American constitution, when
he lives in part of the world to which
that constitution does not extend? To
that, too, the Republican reply must
be Eyes. baltimore Sun.

Nothing has ever occurred in the his
tory of politics of more sublimely ridi-
culous character than the action of the
so-called Populfst national convention at
Sioux Falls. Political parties have
been known to compliment other or
ganizations with perhaps one position
on the ticket placed in nomination,
but it remained for the cat-hop at Sioux
Falls to establish the precedent of Civ
ing all the places on the ticket to out

Eastern Democrats Agree on Issues.
WASHINGTON, May 12.-The Chi
cago platform will not be repeated in
extenso at the Kansas City convention,
1t is to be reaffirmed, that is all, if the
arrangements entered into here today
can be carried out.
Bird s. Coler, comptroller of New
York city, and representing Hugh Nc
Laughlin, saw Senator Jones, chairman
of the Democratic national committee.
and an arrangement was practically
made which it Is expected to bring to
the support of Mr.. Bryan and his run
ming mate this fall all the Eastern Dem
ocrats who in 1896 supported Palmer
and Buckner. Grover Cleveland and
his friends cannot be vouched for, but
the hearty support of the MCLAUGHLIN
Democrats of Brooklyn has been
pledged, and 1t is assumed that the
mass of all the irregular organizations
will join in this support.
The importance of this development
Is apparent when the fact is considered
that Hugh Mclaughlin and his Brook
lyn Democracy have been the chief fact
ors Of any potency in the East to mani
fest reluctance in the espousal of the
cause represented by Mr.. Bryan. All
the Democratic votes secured for the
gold bill this session, with only a few
exceptions, came from the Brooklyn
men.--Press Dispatch.
This is delightful mess they are
cooking up for us at Kansas City. By
abandoning our principles we are to get
Hugh Mclaughlin and his 1000 po-
litical prostitutes that voted for Palmer
and Buckner. BY emasculating our
platform we are to get the New York
Democratic congressman who voted for
the meanest financial measure ever con-
summated since the Pharisees COM
promised with. Judas Iscariot ON the
basis of 80 pieces of silver. We are glad
that Grover Cleveland and his friends
cannot be vouched for" We hope they
will continue right along in the middle
of the road that leads to perdition.
1t is very evident that some fellows at
Kansas City will have to be hit hard.
We will have to conciliate them with a
club. There is liable to be pretty row
down there. II the true men exhibit
the same courage they did at Chicago
four years ago all will be we'll, but
If the time-servers and compromisers
are In the ascendant there will be no
hope for the people in Democratic sue
cess.
1t Is we'll for the reformers that the
Populists nominated a ticket at Sioux
Falls. This will be. the rallying point
for the good men Of that convention.
Bryan and Towne are better than any
platform and 1t would be safe to run
them without a platform. just give
us Bryan and Towne and the people
will do the rest.-Non-C OnfOrmist.
