GORMAN ON THE REPUBII
CAN CONSPIRACY

We regret exceedingly that we have
not sufficient space to publish in full
the able statement of the Hon. A. p.
German regarding the actions Of Gov
ernor Smith in calling the extra session
of the Legislature-the exposure of the
Republican census frauds, the coloni-
cation of negroes and the attempt of
Republican leaders to capture the
State-Every citizen of the State
should post themselves on the gigantic
conspiracy.

Every day we hear of FRAUDS
and populations in the new gov

thousands of dollars have been
stolen by Federal office holder,
as well as by men in the Unlteu
States army. All this was polnI'
ed out and was sure to follow
under the new policy of the gov
eminent. Big army contrac"

Mr.. Eugene Earl, whose posi-
ton as a popular hotel proprietor

to get a very fair idea of the
drift Of political currents, is in

bic to the entire Democracy and
to the bulk Of the voters in New
York. The present reform wave
that is sweeping over the town
will have spent its force before
election day, and as an issue will
be practically extinct. The
trouble with the reformerS is
that they cherish the deluslOn
that they can suppress vice IN
the metropolis, while sensible
people recognize the fact that
vice in a great city cannot be
eradicated, and are content to
have it regulated"
Some idea of the way this gov
eminent was robbed in the pur'
chase of vessels at the outbreak
of the war with Spain may be
gathered from the fact that the
transport Terry, for which Sl5O,'I|

vertiSed for sale at an upset
price of $4,000, and not a single
bid was received. When bough'

Mr.. Mckinley has had an over
supply of white elephants on his
hands for some time. Conse

more, by capturing Aguinaldo.
The Funston white elephant has

litical menagerie. There being
nothing in sight lower than
Brigadier Generals commission
in the regular army, the members
of the Kansas Congressional
Delegation, who happened to be
in Washington made a break for
the White House and demanded
that for Funston. Mr.. Mckinley

without making any promises
other than that he would do some.

meeting, Mr.. Mckinley mention.

Funston, and Secretary Root
made sneering remarks about
yellow soldering and circus bust

saying that he was opposed to
making Funston Brigadier- Gen

Adjutant General Corbin mar
shaled the "pull" of the officers
of the regular army that will be
jumped by Funston's promotion
to try to head off the appoint
ment, and failing in that, to try
to have it knocked out in the
Senate. Meanwhile Mr.. McKin-
ley had his ear to the ground.
He heard the public demand that
Funston be made a Brigadier for
capturing AguinaldO, and he
proceeded to do it, considering

to bend to public opinion, even
though that public opinion might
be somewhat of the hysterical sort.
