senator Tapp fsefutes Dispatch Con-
cerninS Isis Purposes.

An Associated Press Dispatch from To-
peka yesterday says:
Many of the old-time Populists are in
rebellion this morning over what they
term the surrender Of the Peoples party
TO the Democracy at the state convention
last night. Among the leaders of the
insurgents are Babb and Tapp of Sedg-
wick county; Hoffman of Dickinson and
Butts of Butler. These men left the floor
of the convention after the band wagon
had been run over them and refused TO
take further part in the proceedings.
Dickinson county delegates refused 10
vote on the resolutions TO make recon-
mendations to the Democrats and only
three OF the big Sedgwick county dele
cation stayed TO vote on the nominations.
James Tapp. senator. from Wichita,
declared that as he no longer had party
Of his own, he would cast his vote for
Governor Stanley for United States sem
ator next winter. He said Senator Har-
ris aided in landing the Populists in the
Democratic party, therefore he would not
support him again for United States
senator.
To a reporter for the Eagle Senator
Tapp said last night on his return TO this
city:
1T is true. I am an outcast I rep
resent no party any longer and there
fore have no right TO talk politics. Thus
far that dispatch is right concerning me.
l did not. however. say that l would be
for Stanley for senator or not. In a jok-
ing way somebody added it to what I
had already said. Then I, Joking in my
turn, said with laugh that indeed I
did not see that It would be out Of the
way II 1 was for Governor Stanley.
being that 1 was his nelghoor.
THE convention was a hot one and the
SedgwIck county delegation stuck to-
gether from first to last. We bucked them
from the start but It was no use. Why.
half the delegations were made Up %
Democrats. Republican told me that
many OF the members Of some delegations
were men who had never voted anything
but 4 Democratic ticket. We wanted TO

"There-was but one." SAID he.

me, "You thought there was a great

explained TO me that that bee was 60

1 1893 gyrations every three seconds,
and was not running up to half of his
capacity. This gave it the appearance
Of 624 bees every second.

But the impression produced by

All spots are alike to him, any old

The Fable of the Carrion-Crows,
and the 'sOld Black Hoss.''

Abbevil1e Idea.
Some carrion-crows sitting on the
limb of big live oak, observed the
cold black hoss" walking in a-stag-
ger fall condition in Uncle Sans
pasture. They called in their friends
of the flock and announced his death
at daylight the next morning. But
the cold black hoss" didn't die.
And the air was so full Of buzzards
that the sun looked as if eclipsed
and the limbs of the live oak broke
down for the weight of the innumer-
able buzzards; and yet in two days
after, the "Old Black Hoss" ac-
tually died, which proves that the
buzzard's instinct Is perfect, though
little previous.
This fable truy y teaches: The
Lily Whites scented the death of
the nigger Webrc before he died
and were after~his official carcass a
little previous.

District Attorney Jerome, as a
matter of expediency, and in the
interest Of political honesty, favors
the opening of saloons during a part
Of Sunday, but would accomplish
that end through legislation without
a referendum, because he believes
that if the people of the City of
New York voted on the question
they would decide against Sunday
opening. On the other hand, the
timorous and illogical advocate of
temperance is opposed to referen-
dun because he fears the people
will decide in favor of Sunday
opening. Both are wrong. The
proper way Of dealing with the ques-
tion Of Sunday opening, and the
only proper way, is to submit it to
a vote of the people of every COM
munity that calls for referendum
for the purpose of setting it
