Wharton Barker populist candidate
for president very handsomely Ho
now wishes ho had novor said it any
way his supporters in tins state are vig
orously roasting Mr Marker and all his
works
Senator Allen is a fair sample of tho
fusion populist He is populist in name
but ho h continually favoring tho demo
crats with his influence and support and
has thus been successsful in gottiug
olllees to which a truo populist neod not
aspire
After the votes aro counted in Nov
omber Mr Brynn will be wondering
where all tho truo patriots of tho country
aro He classes all tho truo patriots as
supporting him and will likely bo
disappointed that thoro aroso fow in the
country
It is said tlmt five fanners from ouo
township in Kansas aro attending the
Paris exposition They will probably
return homo in tlmo to rogistcr their

these plutocratic pleasures
Tho fusionists claim they aro tho only

William J Curtis member of tho
democratic national committeo says
Tho platform adopted and tho candi
dates nominated nt Kausas City show
that tho democratic party under its
present management no longer presents
any attractions to the men who havo al

ciples
If wo lose says Mr Bryan with
an endeavor to sustain his enviable repu
tation as a false prophet aud nu utter
disregard of the ridiculousness of the
Ktatement celebrations of Jthp Fourth
of J uly will pass away Tho chances
uro good that wo will loso aud tho
chauces are equally good that tho Fourth
uf July will ha celebrated when Mr
Bryan is entirely forgotten
It is reported tlmt a fusiou speaker iu
South Dakota Marted in to laud the
Fdipiuos ns patriots and condemn tho
Americau soldiers as butchers but did
not finish his address There were
superior attractions olsowhere and ho
took to his heels pursued by somo mom
bers of tho South Dakota regiment who

his pursuers carried a rope
It is evident that many gold bug
democrats and newspapers were pre
paring to endorse Bryan and his other
fallucies providing lie would forego tho
pleasure of discussing free silver and
omit it from his platform but ho
wouldnt and tho support couuted on
has uot beeu forthcoming except in a
very few iustances nud that will be
worso thau half hearted Not ouly has

have been lost because Towue was not

The I Stanton Register eomolos Itself
with tho thought that tho populists have
been supporting tho republican ticket
and it Is therefore tho republicans that
will lose by tho independent niovoment
This is truo to a certain extent but
thoro are other populists who are dissat

K Kllory Anderson a strong eastern
democrat says No man who values
his honor or that of his country could

tho oranks who call thomsolvos demo

yoar since IS5I with tho exception of

How very grateful tho democrats aro
Hero the populists lmvo been assisting
them for years in securing tho fattest
olllces In tho gift of tho state with noth

they aro mercouarles bribe takers

It is said that tho German born citi
zens of tho United Statos will bo induced
to voto for dishonest money and the
froo coinage of silver at lit to 1 lu 1100
by disguising tho monetary issue as a
bogy of militarism In fact all foreigu
born voters aro to bo coerced into
Bryanarohy by scaring thorn with mon
arohy But it is diillcult to distinguish
tho difference between tho ouo man
power of monarchy in Germany and
the ono man power of Bryanarchy in
tho Kausas City convention Conserva

At Boomer a fow democrats wanted to
ratify tho action of the Kausas City con

Bryan mau but this year ho luformed
his former partisans that ho was entirely
through witli Bryan aud his vagaries
and would not allow his anvil to utter n
sound against McKiuley prosperity aud
tho ratitiors woro compelled to purchase
oanuou crackers from another McKiuley
mau who formerly supported Brynn It
will tako a mighty large and well con
structed bugaboo to cause voters to
sacrifice what thoy know to bo a good
thing by voting for Bryan

Mi Bryans alliance with Tammany
hall aud all its rotteuess and corruption
tho druukeu debauch of tho Massachu

that will cause respectable people to

seeuis to bo training with mighty ques
tionable company Tno wearing of a
11 -van badge by one of tho street fakirs
on i he occasion of Campbell Bros show

Bryau was not to blamo for it but there

It seems that tho populists are not tho
ouly oues to be lost to the fusiou move
ment this fall The silver republicans
are becoming tired of the combine aud
many of them threaten to withdraw ou

been one of the main supports of the
silver republican movemeut said iu a

1HE NORFOLK NEWS THURSDAY JULY 20 1000
to the uso of tho word populist on
the ballot uthough It has never been
used by his or any other party It is
apparent that tho fusionists atonot only
frightened but that they will mako every
effort to crowd them out discredit them
and do everything possible to their ml
vantage Tho fusionists shouldnt have
made their bluff so soon that they had
nothing to fear from tho midroaders

Tho Blair Pilot gives a good and suf
flcent reason why populists should con

Since that time fusion has existed and
at tho present tlmo thoro are about S0l
populist voters lu the county and at

voted largely with tho republicans on

last lingering doubts that I was a re
publican they havo been all swept away
by tho late so called democratic conven
tion when it allowed Mr Bryau to dic
tate a 10 to 1 plank in the platform
clearly In opposition to the will of fully
two thirds of the delegates I will not
say that I am In full accord with all the
tenets of tho republican platform but
ouo plauk or declaration appeals very
strongly to mo aud that is tho one
which clearly decisively aud boldly de
clares that tho democratic party Is not
capable of govorniug thill great country
I am in hearty accord with this declara

It to bo correct Every time tho party
has had hold of tho reigns of govern

Secretary of State Porter concedes to
tho populists 10000

not as insignificant ns Mr Porters com
patriots would lead tho people to believe
They havo been arguing that there are
no straight populists aud even these aro
republicans Mr Porter has a sting of
iugratitudo coming from Domiuator
Bryan
A man who wont support tho fusion
combine for Bryans sake is too de
praved for auythlug Notice the meau
things said about the populists because
they havp asserted their independence
Tliev were good fellows all right as long
as they were content to vote at the dic
tation of tho bosses but their etlort to
establish a party of their own is de
plorable
There is no prosperity Nearly eveiy

it must bo truo The streets are full of

soup is served at the corners and things
are generally going to rack and ruin
Sad condition isnt it ult
It was but a short time ago that tho
silverites would throw a fit every time a
gold bug would assert that the free
silver issue was dead and they have
proved its right to life by inserting it
couspiciuosly iu their platform at Kansas-City
Now they evidently wish it
was dead but Bryau insisted it was alive
and Bryau dominated the convention
He made his platform aud must bo ex
pected to staud ou it
President McKinley to the Committee
ou Notification The republican party
was dedicated to freedom 44 years ago
It has been the party of liberty and
emancipation from that hour not of

mado them free aud to tho party of
Liiucom has como another supreme op
portunity which it has bravely met in
the liberation of 10000000 of tho human
family from the yoke of imperialism
If anything would cause us to quit
supportiug McKiuley aud auuounce
our allegiance to Wharton Barker it
would be to havo tho president dress iu

aud a broad brimmed straw hat and pose
for his picture He would be the laugh

how ridiculous he was A genuine

Wuilo the World Herald is urging the
fusiouists to get together with their

perity question especially there appears
to be a wide divergence of opinion
There is uo prosperity prosperity is
waning prosperity is tho gift of
God the trusts are getting all the
prosperity are a few of the mauy ways
of explaining it It is essential that
those who are goiug to save the country
should get together not only so they
may present a solid front to the enemy
but that the enemy may be able to
