A PIzzLE.
Opening Of the Republican Campaign II
Sumner County.

Republicans have been very much
worried all the fall over the indifference
of their old-time workers. This was es-
pecially apparent by the expressions OF
doubt and gloomy looks Of the mem-
bers of the county central committee
after their meeting Monday. This feel
ing has been still more apparent since
Tuesday evening. Not daring TO an
nounce regular meeting for fear of the
frost which would surely follow, street
performance purporting to be lecture
on the Philippines was pulled off. The
man in charge stated that the cost of
keeping up his outfit which was a large,
first-class magic lantern, was $40
per day, which was doubtless true. The
'1ecture" was made up of praise Of
Mckinley and the Republican party,
ridicule of Bryan and the Democratic
party and an occasional reference to the
Philippines and destiny" The whole
affair was lacking in interest and enthu-
siasm and fell flat. Twenty dollars per
day is dear price for such an affair
even for the enormous slush fund which
the trusts nave put at the disposal of
the Republican national committee. A
cause that is so weak that its advocates
find it necessary to resort to false pre-
tense to get people to even 60 near enough
to listen and then find it necessary to
pay $40 per day for a magic lantern to
show living pictures and other outside
attractions to hold the crowd, can not
appeal very strongly to intelligent vot-
ers. This is the beginning of the cam-
paign. Every known device will be
tried Money will flow like water and
nothing that money will buy or in any
way procure will be left undone to con-
tinue Emperor William OF America and
Asia in power. The sugar trust, the grain
dealers association and the Thousand
other trusts fostered and encouraged by
the Republican party, will foot the bills.

POpulist County Platform.

Last week we gave an extended write
up Of the Populist county convention and
resolutions adopted by the Democratic
convention. Space did not permit more.
The resolutions adopted by the Populist
convention follows:
We, the delegates of the Populist
party Of Sumner, in convention Assem-.
bled in Wellington, August IS, 1900 for
the purpose of nominating a county
ticket and selecting delegates to the
Seventh congressional convention, to be
held in Hutchinson, Sept. nth,
Do, hereby, reafrm our allegiance to
the Populist platform Of principles
adopted at Sioux Falls, and also the
platform adopted by the state conven-
ton at Ft. Scott, Kan. on July 18th.
We, as a party, are proud Of our
county officials elected for the 1ast ten
years by the Populists of this county,
and we point with pride to their record.
We sincerely ask of the tax payers of
this county, and all fair minded citizens,
to compare the running expenses Of this
county for the past four years while
managed and controlled by the Populist
party, with the expense Of running the
county prior to the advent of the Popu-
list party, and do hereby request all
voters who desire the continuation Of
good management of the affairs of the
county, as we'll as the practice Of econ
omy, to affiliate with us in the election
Of our county officials.
Resolved, That we congratulate Messrs.
Campbell and Duvall for their mag

Anew Enterprise for Wellington.

The people of Wellington and Sumner
county will be pleased to know that Mr..
c. A. Gambrill who for so many years
conducted department store with such
marked success in the city will open up
again soon. Mr.. Gambrill disposed of
his business because of his health, and
has travelled over greater portion of the
United States, but finds like others who
leave Sumner county for any reason,
that they cannot stay away, are better of
here. He started early this week for st.
Louis and Chicago to lay in a complete
stock of everything kept in a city de,
partment store. Dry goods, boots and
Shoes, gents furnishing goods, hard
ware, groceries and everything in no.

The stock will be one Of the largest in

thereby placing the success of the fusion
forces, above individual interests.
Resolved, That we, the delegates of
this convention, believe the selection of
either of the gentlemen as nominee for
congress in the Seventh congressional
district, who have recently withdrawn,
would be detrimental and impolitic,
thereby endangering the success of the

Fifteen years ago Lord Wolseley and
other English writer's pointed out the
danger of teaching the Chinese the art
of war. The hardy nature of the Chi
nese. their indifference to life and
death. and their aptness to learn were
commented upon to show that If they
should be taught the methods of mod
ern warfare China, with her 4O0, 0,000,-
600. might sweep civilization from the
earth. This lesson was unheeded. The
spirit Of greed and commercialism,
which heeds nothing but its own insa-
tiate greed for plunder by fair means
or foul, rushed in to supply China with
all the hellish instruments of destruc-
tion that wicked civilization has de-
vised. Germany sold the Yellow Men
400 900 Mauser rifles, many large krupp
guns and tons of ammunition at a big
price. England sent her agents to Sc
cure a share of the blood money and
took as many orders as possible for
Whitworth and machine guns, while
the United States clamored to have
the open door opened still wider that
she might have a larger share in the
wages of sin. Now the worm Is begin
ming to turn and who can say that the
retribution is not just, If the Chinese,
instructed in the art of destruction and
death and furnished with the means
to lay nations waste, should now turn
upon those who taught them the bloody
art of war? War is hell. Cursed be
war and all who in any manner aid to
keep its unholy spirit alive.

The more the light is turned upon
Mckinley's work in the Philippines
the worse 1t looks. No less an authori-
ty than Richard Brinsley Sheridan has
published a book describing what he
knows of the Filipinos from personal
observation He declares that before
going to Manila his sympathies were
entirely American. but he says: After
a short time in Manila | discovered
that the Filipinos have been grossly
misrepresented Where had expected
to meet people unworthy Of recogni-
tion, | found men of refinement and
cultivation; individuals of intellect and
education who objected to the Ameri-
can policy of determination and to the
arrogance of Gen. Otis" If the Amer
lean people understood the case; II
they would believe the reports of fair
minded authorities instead of the CEN
sored reports sent out by military sa-
traps, the sense of justice that still re-
mains would raise such a storm of pub
lie indignation as to force Mckinley
and his policy of benevolent assimi-
lation" into permanent retirement

Our Strenuous" efforts in attempt
ing to teach the Cubans the art of self
government are about as consistent as
Satan's attempts at preaching the gos-
pei. Cuba is undergoing a system of
taxation that will speedily turn her
plantations over to the control Of the
land grabber Through the devasta-
tion of war many of the Cubans lost
all they had except their land, which
they do not now have the means to cul-
tivate. Gen. Wood, in spite of their
helplessness and poverty, has issued
an order declaring that estates shall
be taxed just the same as if worked
to their full producing capacity. If
the tax is not paid within two months
of levy six per cent additional is added,
and if delayed six months II per cent
is added, and so on. This in many
cases. means confiscation, just what
the land speculator, in league with the
officials, desires. The rate of taxation
is worse than any that King George
the Third ever imposed on the colonies.
1t amounts to $4,000, 900 annually, or
IS for every man, woman and child on
the island. This money Is either
stolen directly or used in paying lot
of favorte supernumeraries double sal
aries. All this in the name of Hanna,
Mckinley and God.

Like most of his fellow men, the
writer felt when the hot days of July
came that he would like to spend a
few days at the seashore. Cape May
was chosen as the objective point,
partly because of its magnificent beach
and partly for the reason that 1t can be
reached from Philadelphia by boat.
The fine steamer Republic makes the
round trip daily during the summer
season, and the trip down the historic
Delaware is a most enjoyable one, and
will bear repeating again and again.
Our stay at the Cape was made doubly
pleasant by the excellent accommoda-
tions and service at Congress Hall,
under the efficient management of Miss
r. Halpin. Congress Hall stands in
the midst of a magnificent lawn on the
highest point of land at the Cape and
affords a fine view of the ocean. 1t
has passenger elevators, electric lights
and perfect sanitary arrangements.
Miss Halpin formerly conducted the
Windsor, at Cape May, and that house
under her judicious management pros
pered greatly Since she left it the
larger portion of its aristocratic pa
tronage has followed her to Congress
Hall. Cape May is not the place where
politicians meet to concoct schemes OF
conquest, hut many of them go there
for rest when tired of the worries of
political life.
