PoPULIsT QUITS.
Issues Not Dead, But Adopt
ed BY Others.

The following dispatch was re-
Gently sent out from Washington,
d. c.:
Senator Marion Butler Of North
Carolina has decided that his bust
ness interests will not permit him to
retain the national craftsmanship
of the Populists after next years
convention. He says the Popu-
lists will have a Presidential ticket
in the field and that it will poll
more votes than Weaver, who got
more than 2 million. Senator But
Ter said:
What will be our PLATFORM
What is the necessity of changing
it when the people of the country
are coming to our way of viewin g
political mattersi The great fea-
ture Of the Populists' platform
will favor the national ownership
of the means of carrying on conf
merce, for which the constitution
provides government control. We
will advocate the substitution of
public money for bank notes and
will urge government ownership of
railroads and the facilities for the
transmission of intelligence Events
are working toward government
ownership Of the means for carry
ing on commerce. l believe that if
the people Of the country could vote
on this question, independent Of
any political issue, there would be
majority in favor of the owner
ship.
The stockholdersOf the railroads,
/ am sure, would welcome suchgov-
eminent ownership. They would
gladly exchange their stock, with
doubtful dividends, for government
securities, which would give them
a certain income. do not be-
lieve that the government should
hesitate to pay a fair price for the
railroads. The people can afford
to buy the water in them. They
could give a good price for all
these properties, and there would
be no question that the govern
ment could operate them, pay in
terest on the bonds issued against
them and provide sinking fund
from the earnings that would pay
off the debt in twenty years. 1t
might be done in ten years but
there is no use haggling over
the question whether it would
take one or twenty years, aud ev-
cry one who has looked into the
question admits it could be done in
twenty years.
At the end of twenty years,
freight and passenger rates could
be lowered, and the people would
get the full benefit of the purchase
by the government. In the mean
time the greatest blow would be to
monopoly There is only one set
of men who are banded against
government ownership of the rail
roads. They are the highly paid
officials who are running them.

PARIS, February 2S.-When they go in

there courted another woman.
