A Beast With a Saddle on

Dear Old Independent: | have not
seen your cheerful face for a long
time, but can imagine your able man
ayers are having piles of fun in
watching and commenting on the 6. O.
p. maneuvers in our national country
seat. Your chief-Bro. Tibbles-must
certainly be increasing his adipose tis-
sue very muchly. Dailies here galore,
but there is no real editorial fun in
them like there is in your familiar
pages. And now, dear old friend,
want to tell you what this whooperina
administration reminds me of. Some
time in the past there came to the
Wabash country a gentleman from
Erin who had never seen snake,
neither terrapin-but in his wander
ings he found terrapin in the road,
but it had feet. He did not think it a
snake; another thing, it did not seem
viciously inclined, for when he would
touch it with his stick, in would go
its head. BE the howly spoon," says
Pat, we are queer thing" and so
saying he left it there. Just around
a bend in the road he met man with
a broken bride in his hand who in
quired il he had seen a strange beast
with saddle OIL never knew
Wabasher to inquire for horse or
mule-it was always "a strange beast"
"A sthrange baste with saddle on"
says Pat. "Come wild me till show
him to yez." They soon came UP with
the terrapin and Pat was jubilant.
"By me troth there is a sthrange baste
with saddle on says he, touching
him with his stick. 20, be gobs, jist
see how beautifully. he schwallers his
head. Be dad and isn't 1t convanient."
That's Hanna and the administration.

was chairman Of the first state
convention held in May, 1892. At that
convention we nominated full state
ticket and organized a state central
committee.
Each campaign year thereafter we
have held "a state convention and
nominated a full state ticket and at
each and every state election from
1892 to 1902 inclusive we have had a
place on the official ballot.
We never fused with any other
party,
Our state committee is composed Of
thirteen members, one from each con-
gressional district. Our present state
chairman is Hon. Fred ]. S. Robinson
of Cloverland, Ind. He is gentleman
of character, property, energy and
ability and has been an active middle
of-the-road populist all the time and
ever since the party was organized.
He has never wabbled in the spindle
and never tolerated fusion and has
made a very efficient chairman for
several years. The chances are that
he will be our nominee for governor
next year.
DIR. Van Vorhis has not in the past
affiliated with the populists and has
never voted the peoples party ticket
He is able on paper and on the stump
and was republican, prominent in
state politics, until 1896, when he
bolted and supported Bryan, and he
again supported Bryan in 1900.
We held a peoples party confer
ence a few weeks ago at indianapolis
which was attended by DR.. Van Vor-
his. We were surprised and pleased
to see him there. He made good
speech and declared that he desired to
act with us in the future and Chair
man Robinson appointed him on
special committee. of which was
chairman, to prepare an address to the
voters OF the state. AS he Is a ready
writer asked him to draft the report.
