Fusion Deal In Kansas.

Topeka, Kan, March 5.-The state
central committees of the Populist,
Democratic and Silver Republican or
ganizations We're in secret session here
and agreed upon terms under which n
complete union of the three parties
may be formed for the coming state
and national campaign. The Demo-
cratic state chairman reviewed the his
tory of fusion in Kansas, and insisted
that it was time for somebody besides
the Democrats to concede something.
The Democrats first asked for six of
the fourteen places on the ticket, but
the Populists claimed that this was out
of proportion to the Democratic vote.
The Populists are TO have governor,
lieutenant governor. auditor, attorney
general, state superintendent, congress
man-at-large and one judge of the court
of visitation.
The Democrats are to have associate
justice, secretary of state. treasurer,
solicitor. and one judge of the court of
visitation.
The Silver Republicans are to have
insurance superintendent and one
judge of the court of visitation.
The electoral ticket is to be divided
between the Democrats and Populists

Bri,ons Big War Budget.

London. March G.-The House of
Commons was crowded to-day and all
the public galleries were thronged in
anticipation of the budget statement.
The return of the chancellor of the ex-
chequer, Sir Michael Hicks Beach. in
Producing the budget, shows that the
expenditure of E154, ,OS2, 900 has to be
provided for in the budget of 1900-19O1.
The statement shows that the ex-
cheqner account of 1S99-100O would
have given surplus of upwards of Co.
100000, but that the supplementary
war estimates of E23, ,Oo0,0 900 makes the
expenditure exceed the revenue by
f17.170,00O.
The chancellor Of the eSchequer, af-
ter laying the figures before the house
pointed out that the country had to face
n total estimated expenditure, in conse-
quence of the war; 10 less than six
times as much as had been estimated
in October last.
Against the estimated expenditure of
f54. .0S2.000 for the coming year, the
chancellor of the eXchequer estimated
the revenue. on the basis of taxation,
at f11G,9O00o0, or Il deficit of E37 ,OO0,-

Catarrh is well-nigh universal; almost

Mr.. Bryan's speech appears of appall
ing length, but no one who reads be-
You'd the opening paragraphs will put
it aside before he has reached the end.
1t is an exceedingly able speech, clear,
coherent and logical and as earnest as
eloquent, and all the more forcible be-
cause it is confined closely to one OBJ
ject, which he takes as the significant
leading issue that typifes oil the gen
eral issues of the campaign.
Whether or not it was most polite to
devote his speech of acceptance entire
ly to discussion Of the policy of the
administration towards the Philippines
may be differently judged accord
ing to the interests or sympathies
of individuals or localities; but it
cannot be denied that Mr.. Bryan has
merely expressed the convictions of q
large part of the American people, but
has made his argument upon such
broad lines and in such a dignified
American spirit that it will be impossi-
BILE for those who hold contrary views
to treat it lightly, If any Of his sup
porters are disappointed that he makes
no specific reference to any of the finan-
cial and econo mic questions which they
deem important, the disappointment of
his opponents will be much greater.
1t will not be SO easy as was expected
to pick flaws in this speech Only sue
cessful achievement can answer it.
TITS, in substance, a broad applica-
tion Of the spirit not only Of the decla-
ration of Independence but of all
American history to the present rela-
tions of the United states to the terri
tory wrested from the dominion OF
Spain. While Mr.. Bryan has a fond
ness for rhetorical phrases, this is not
mere rhetoric; it is logical argument,
with practical application. 1t treats
its subject with the gravity that be-
longs to it and it will compel many to
seriods thought who have not hitherto

The character of my information was
very favorable TO the democrats. ! can
give you two instances which / know
TO be reliable. They are of men who
used to practice law with me in Quincy.
One of them is Capt. Michael Piggott,
an Irishman of much more than local
fame, who was postmaster at Quincy
for eight years, and four years ago an
enthusiastic supporter of Mckinley
and the republican ticket. This year
he is squarely for Bryan. He is man
of influence in those parts and highly
respected. The other man l have in
mind is w. A. Richardson, the son of n
former United States senator and an
ex-member of the legislature. In 1896
he was q gold democrat and wrote many
articles supporting Mckinley Now
he is advocating Bryan's election.
There are many Germans in that vicin-
ity, and the German vote this year will
be with the democrats. The German
farmers are against the administration
of Mckinley and will not support him
again. l took some pains to secure &C
curate information on that point"

MR.. BRYAN'S ADDRESS.

Mr. Bryan's speech is long, but it is
worth reading. 1t is the ablest, most
logical, and thoughtful, as we'll as the
most adroit and plausible, presentation
of the question of Imperialism. which
has yet been submit ed to the American
people. Washington Post.
Mr.. Bryan has become famous for the
simplicity of language and for the can
dor with which he states his position
on public questions. His Indianapolis
speech is remarkable for the simple
language in which he answers every
argument advanced by the imperialists,
That speech must create a profound
impression upon the mind of every
reader. There is no effort at fancy
phrase-building, and no attempt at elo-
quence, and yet throughout, because
OF their simplicity and their force, the
sentences of the Indianapolis speech
will live as one of the most eloquent in
American history. - Omaha World
Herald.
The democratic candidate for presi-
dent has delivered noble speech, sole
ly devoted to this supreme question
Quarrel with him as we may on other
issues, criticise as we may his past
treatment of this issue, the fact remains
that he, rather than Mr.. Mckinley,
places the paramount issue where it be-
longs-at the forefront of the discus
sion. Whatever the past, Mr.. Bryan
rather than Mr.. Mckinley, has ranged
himself and the great party behind
him on the right side of the debate. -
Springfield (Ind.) Republican.
Bryan seems to have steam up al
ready. He will keep the rails hot until
November. louisville Times.
The Herald, as is we'll known by this
time, does not take the same view OF
the subject discussed that is held by
Mr.. Bryan, and does not support his
candidacy. But to say of this address
that it lacks the quality of full manli-
ness, intellectual or moral, would
stultify our Judgment. Boston Herald.
