wrong in the late campaign. But one
thing at a time can be accomplished.
When bimetallism has been achieved
something else can be taken np. No one
of theother reforms should be abandoned
bnt each should be disposed of in its reg
ular order For this reason the silver
issue must be settled before anything
else can be dene. We cannot successfully
travel faster than the people can go. To
abandon bimetallism in the face of the
fact that the people are about to adopt
it.would not only defeat bimetallism. but
would shake the confidence of the people
in the steadfastness of our purpose.
Bimetallism must and will succeed, and
if we undertake now to shift the issue we
shall simply be trampled under foot by
a people whom we have educated to vote
for bimetallism, and who -will refuse to
follow us away from it until they have
tried that which we have told them is a
good thing. The fact that the united
money power of the world was arrayed
atrainst ns in the last campaign is a
matter of deeper significance than mere
opposition to free silver coinage. It
should be apparent to those who are
Drooosinc a shifting of the issues that
the nartv which fought for bimetallism
contains the elements from which we
may expect industrial progress and po
litical liberty, and if I am not mistaKen
the corporations fought us more on ac
count of turn fact than trom any reai
antiDathv aeainst bimetallic coinage.
For what reason should a banker fight
cheaper money? His profits swell with
the increased profits of his customers.
His reason for nghtimr silver in the last
camDaizn is this: He knew that it lie am
not destroy the silver party, the silver
party would destroy the national Dang
ling system and adopt a system of gov.
ernment DaDer money issues, The rail
roads and other corporations fought
Brvaa and the silver Dooulists for the
reason that the success of Bryan's party
meant a reign of honest democracy and
the destruction of corporate manage
ment of the general government. In
view of these facts the people's party
cannot be true to the best interests ot
humanity without holding steadily in
the middleof the wide road which it took
at St. Louis last July. Andrew h. Lee.
tT. 8. SENATOR-ELECT OF KANSAS.
I certainly am opposed to any attempt
to discard the silver issue at this time.
I have no time to write a letter for pub
lication, but vou are at liberty to quote
me in the strongest terms as being op-
nnsfid to anv movement Use tne one

VV. A. Harris.
U. 8. SENATOR OF IDAHO.
I do not deem it advisable to retire
the silver issue at this time; it would be
a very unwise course to pursue. The
silver issue always has been one of the
' cardinal principles of the people's party
and I certainly dem it unwise to desert
it at this time, after having advanced it
to the position which it now holds, and
we might justly be accused of insincerity
should we abandon it now. I do not
believe there is any danger of the peoples
' party being absorbed by any otuer po
litical party which favors the free coin
age of silver, nor do I believe that the
reforms which we advocate will be en
d angered by still continuing to be as we
have been in the past, toe most araent
supporters of free coinage. Henry Heit

SENATOR PEFFBB.
I began with the populist party at its
hipth T hftvti tried hard to follow and
practice its creed, and I do not want to
drop out a single plans irom tne plat
form W. A. Peffer.
B. O. FLOWER, EDITOR OF THE ARENA,
I think it is exceedingly unfortunate
that any such question as a change of
fighting issues should have been raised.
Surely the people's party has not been
imitating corrupt and office-seeking
parties by simply advocating measure's
for policy's sake. I am , confident that
our people have sincerely fought their
magnificent educational campaigns from
motives of purest patriotism. They es
poused the cause of free silver because
they felt that it would benefit the wealth
' creators of the nation, and that it would
tend to free our people from the Egyp
tian task masters over the sea and aid
in bringing back that condition of pros
perity which existed before the Sher
man's, the Clevelands, and the Carlisles
succeeded in establishing the supremacy
of the British financial policy in this
once spieuuiu nnu luueufuuouireuuunc
I believe that the educational campaign
should be carried on vigorously, that
the government ownership of natural
1 monopolies should be boldly, deter in
i. inedly, and earnestly insisted upon, es-
pecially in our educational work, and
? that scientific money and other cardinal
planks in the people's platform, as well
as the importance of "direct legislation,"
should be systematically agitated. But
I should regard it as exceedingly unfor
tunate if our people were to change issues
: or to drop any cardinal plank tor any
- reason unless they should become con
vinced that their former position was
unsound and untenable. In that case,
of course, manhood would demand that
those holding such views should declare
their convictions and give their reasons
for their change of views. I do not be
lieve, however, that the peoples party is
ready to affirm that one of the great
sues which it fathered no longer merits
an important place in the consideration
of tbe voters. My own view is that an
earnest, bonest, conscientious, persist
ent educational agitation should be kept
up all along tbe line, but that when an
election approaches the questions which
are uppermost in the people's mind and
upon which they are best educated should
be given prominence during thecampaign
which precedes tbe election. Ibis ineth
od, which has been so successfully car
. ried on by the Fabian society in Eng
land in its independent political work, is
think, an admirable one for any reform
political party to imitate; and I think
above all things the friends of an enlarged
currency should stand shoulder to
shoulder from now until after the battle
in 1900, for unless all signs fail there is
already a well defined policy outlined by
the plutocratic leaders by winch they
') hope to divide the people at the next
1 ' presidential election exactly as they
nave divided them so frequently in the
past. Fearing the people will no longer
be hoodwinked by a tariff cry. the lines
which will divide the Wall street republi
cans from the Wall street democrats will
without doubt be gold and internation-
al bimetallism, and it is quite possible
that England may coquet with tne re
publicans untii after the next general
election in order to further enslave our
people. But what roan or woman who
has the courage or ability to think inde
pendently imagines for a moment that
England wilt ever accept free coinage of
silver at 16 to 1 until this republic forces
her to do so through independent action.

Its Opinions in Line with Those of the

Mr. Washburn of Massachusetts means
well, but he is mistaken. Tbe peoples
party is not what he imagines it to be.

spirators. Wauoo New Lra.
The peoples party met in St. Louis
last year and gave to the party its an-
thorative declaration for four years, lo
talk of changing the issues therein enun
ciated, or to attempt to drop any of
fundamental importance, is idle; to go
back to the Omaha platform, is dis
loyalty to the purtv, reactionary and
treasonable. The privileges of differing
with those declarations isaccorded every
man. The right to degrade the only
declaration which the party posses
ses.while acting in the nameof the party,
is nothing less than nonsense. Insist.-
Louis platform was not all that we
wanted, not by any means. " It suited us
better than any platform yet given. It
will be our political shibboleth until
after the experience, and the wisdom
gained, of four years of political activity,
when anotner platform will oe given.
Progressive Age. (Minn.)
This talk about bringing government
money ana eovernment ownersnip 01
railroads to the front as the political
issues of the peoples party is all humbug,
Those issues are to the front, always
have been and always will be until set
tled. There has been no dropping of is
sues nor trimming of platforms so far as
we have noticed. The entire national
platform is advocated by all of our
papers and speakers on all occasions
and it is entirely superfluous to advo
cate a return of those issues. As far as
dropping thesilver question isjeoncerned,
as well talk of dropping the ten com
mandments from the bible. It is simply
the rallying cry of the people against
plutocracy and to drop it now is to give
up the fieht for freedom, rne terra "iree
silver" in its broad sense now means free
government, free people, justice. Iowa
lribune.
One great trouble about the would-be
"reorganizers" of the peoples party is
the marked tendency of the chief agita
tor to make himself the center of the new
organization. The party is no longer in
bibs and pinafores and it is time for
these callers of conferences to reorganize
the party to be so firmly and heavily sat
upon by our national committee that
they will have to devote some of their
superabundant energies to self repair,
Why should our people elect committee
men and a national chairman 11 tney
are, after doing the work of a campaign,
to be set up as marks by a few Hanna-
cratic mud stingers. In their periodic
repudiation of the past work of the party
they feel sure of not condemning any of
their own work. No, they never work
They are political tramps, mendicants,
a menace to the life of any party that
harbors them, that does not openly re-
thera and manfully turn them out of
doors. Heretofore this sort of a nui
sance was not in evidence all the time
biit it seems that we are threatened
with a continuous series of call and repu
diate organizations. Witness Coxey at
St. Louis with his half a dozen followers:
one Tim Hosmer calling a reorganiza
tion meeting which is swallowed up, in
turn by Van der Voort s Memphis call
Is it not a singular coincidence that
each and all of these self-elected reorgan
izers is in bad repute at his respective
home? For no man or bodyof men have
the power to call a meeting to reorgan
ize the party. Such calls can be issued,
but any work that they can do is out
side of and antagonistic to the peoples
party as it now is. We are a bit weary
of the spectacle of the pigmy wanting to
lead the army of giants. Lets cage these
simian "reorganizers" and send them on
to Mark Hanna's museum. Mark has
paid for them and we are more than
willing to deliver the the goods. North
Bend Argus. ,
There is commotion in the peoples
party camp. Washburn of Maine, calls
for a national conference, and practically
tor the retirement of the silver issue
with no further alliance with the demo
cratic party and the goldbug press yells
its delight at the proposed disintrega-
tion of the silver forces. Secretary Ed
gerton of Nebraska raises the standard
of loyalty to silver, as the paramount
issue and inscribes 16 to 1 on his battle
flag and the shouts of millions of popu
lists say "Amen." "No change of fight
ing issues." '"JNo swapping horses in
the middle of the stream." The lines of
battle are already drawn. Stand to
your guns, men, until the victory is won
Push the fight as in tbe past on all its
principles; only with more vigor than
before, lor already the enemies column
are wavering to their overthrow. Free
silver, issue of paper money in abun
dance direct from the government, rail
roads and telegraphs to be owned by the
whole people, and for direct legislation
We will fight under this banner, and wel
come tbe alliance of all these forces on
these lines. Six millions of voters, fight
ing in this holy cause of liberty, under
the leadership of tbeir gallant com
mander, Bryan, will with swelling hosts,
of new recruits, be invincible, by the
money power and trusts of both tbe old
and the new world. Stand by yonr
guns, boys, and victory will be ours in
the "Second Battle," led by Bryan, the
Hero of the first. Utah Oracle.
Study the silver question; persuade
your neighbor to study it. When the
people of Nebraska, or even the people
of Maine or Pennysylvania, study bi
metallism as have the people of Colora
do they will vote, on the subject as do
the Coloradoans. Jefferson County
Journal.
Tbe efforts of Paul Van der Voort to
disunite the silver forces shows that his
ingenuity is backed by someone's. The
great gold OJgan of Boston, tbe Herald,
is the organ through which the an
nouncement is made that the "populists
are deserting Bryan," and will keep to
themselves. Marked copies nave oeen
sent over the country by the thousands,
and the matter is beiug gravely discussed
all over the country. It is well to say
right here that three years is a longtime.
If the gold men think they will have
nothing to do the next three years ex
cept to draw their salaries and bother
the silver men, they are reckoning witn
out due understanding. They will have
all the business they can comfortably
take care of in explaining "how it is;"
"why tbe show is so far behind the ad
vance agent," and an innumerable com
pany of "its" and "ana" to explain why
Cleveland's English money system does
not work out prosperous conditions
under McKinley's administration. The
gold men must look out for a little dis
organization on their own account.
Butler County Press.
W anneal to our friends to stand by
the issue which was the rallying cry in
the last campaign. Do not break ranks;
do not allow the money power to divert
you for a moment. I here may be hon
est men, and there undoubtedly are some
who desire to multiply issues; but we
fear that most of those who subordinate
the money question and confuse the peo
ple with other issues have reasons lor so
doing which they will not give to the
public. We do not want to judge harsh
ly, but we fear there were men pretend
inir to be reformers in tbe last campaign
who preferred McKinley and the gold
standard to Bryan with all the reforms
that have been suggested within the last
temrears. We must remember that our
opponents have unlimited money, and
that human nature is weak, and people
do sometimes yield to temptation and
assume the livery of heaven in which to
serve the devil. Silver Knight.
The letter of National Secretary Edger
ton to be found on our first page appears

can we do than stand by our national

entirety? The People's Era.San Marcos,

Mr. J. A. Edgerton is keeping Hon.
Geo. F. Washburn of Massachusetts
pretty busy these days writing letters
explaining why we ought to change the
fight from tbe silver issue to something
else. It may be insignificant but it is
interesting to note that Mr. Washburn
and men who think as he does live in
states where the populist party has
made the least progress, while Mr. ha
gerton and men who agree with him
live in states where the populist party
has not only made progress and in
creased its membership, but where the
state and county governments are large
ly in the hands of the populist party and
where the representatives and senators
elected to congress are largely of that
political persuasion. Another interest
ing fact may be noted, and we believe
this to be significant. Paul van der
Voort agrees with Mr. Washburn in his
views. This is Bignincant Decause van
der Voort has never yet worked for any
thing that would promote tbe success of
populist candidates or advance the prin
ciples of our party. He was considered
a good enough republican by the repub
lican board upon which tbe appointing
power had been conferred to receive tbe
appointment of fire and police commis
sioner in Omaha as a populist, against
the populist governor. He has been
consorting with the republican politi
cians wbg "run things in this state,
though pretending to be a populist. If
Mr. Washburn wants to know what
kind of a man Van der Voort is be had
better come to Nebraska. In the mean
time, as a simplo matter of precaution,
he bad better steer clear of Van der
Voort and his gang, or the populists of
Nebraska will judge him by the company
he keeps. Ureeley Citizen.
5 DROPS.
It is not often that we recommend in
these columns anything ot a medicinal
character, but the reports that we bear
of the efficacy of the remedy called "5
Drops," are so unusual that we cannot
resist the impulse to give it special men
tion in this issue. For the disease men
tioned in the advertisement this remedy
seems to have jumped into popular fav
or with a single bound, and its success is
deserved, for it has performed some re
markable cures. "5 Drops" is manu
factured by tbe Swanson Rheumatic
Cure Company, 167 Dearborn Street,
Chicago, and the company has the high
est reputation for honesty in all business
transactions. Silver Knight Watch'

NEBRASKA'S CORN CROP.
Some Interesting Figures in Comparing
Crops of Several Years.
In a report published by the United
States department of agriculture shows
the yield of corn per acre over the entire
country. . In 1880 the average was 27.6
bushels per acre planted and the highest
reported figures since that date were 27
in 1889 aud 1891. In 1895 the average
waa 26.2, tbe unprecedented crop of that
year being due to an unprecedented acre
age. In 1896 on an average 1.3 per
cent less, a yield 7.6 per cent greater
gave a total product 6.2 per cent greater,
so that the years corn crop exceeded by
that percentage any other ever pro
duced in the country's history. This
immense crop came principally from a
territory including Virginia, Kentucky,
northern Missouri, Nebraska and north
ward. Texas reports the "poorest corn
crop since the war."
Ir Nebraska there were planted to
corn 7,962,657 acres and the total yield
was 298,599,638 bushels an average
per acre of nearly 33 bushels. In 1894
average in this state per acre was 4.2
bushels aud in 1895 it was 15.2 bushels.
Last year Nebraska raised more corn
than any other state except Iowa, where
the total yield was 321,719,541 bushels,
with an average of about 39.5 bushels
per acre, a total of 23,119,903 bushels
more thau Nebraska.

Wesry of Life.
The pathetic side of old age that time
of life when one sits alone and contem
plates the desolation wrought by ru
morless Time, is toucbingly pictured by
Prince Bismarck in a recent interview.
"I feel feeble, but not ill," he said to a
visitor. "My existence is purposeless,
not being in the service. I have no
pleasure in seeing matters as a specta
tor. I lost my wife, and my sons have
their own business, and as I grow old I
lose interest in even agriculture and for
ests. I don't like to visit the fields aud
forests, because I cannot ride and must
crawl through the bushes. Politics also
begins to tire me. You see the want of a
love for life is my illness, if I have one."
In commenting on the above in the St.
Paul Press, J. B. Packard Bays:
"Here we see tbe picture of a man of
this world who is just finding out that
this is God's world.and not his, and who
is about to join those whs have dropped
out of the world in the march before him
the Ccesars and Charlemagnes, the Na
poleans and Wellingtons who had
market out the world as 'their own in
tbe past.
Bismarck appears to us so human
that we cannot believe, in maintaining
the authority of monarchs and the cus
toms of royalty, that he designedly in
flicted miseries and hardships upon tbe
other portions of the human race, but
rather that the welfare of all depends
upon the maintainance of royalty. Of
course we differ from bim as he differs
from us. It is the fortune or misfortune
of all men to differ who have left the law
of their Maker, and have set up another
law for themselves. Not only is the law
of the creator unobserved, but it is op
posed and violated and reversed. It is
a divine truth that "all men are created
free and equal," but by his own law
man pauperizes himself enthroning
those who sweat not for their bread,
and making the victims of famine those
from whose sweat comes the bread of
the world and this they call conserva
tism. And thus it is that ! man himself
invites famine, plague and wretchedness.
Tbe financial famine and misery wnicn
here in America we are now experiencing,
which we call "haid times," is but the
outcome of this conservatism, which has
crept across the ocean as a plague, and
incites neighbors to drive the others out
of their homr ."

Curing tbe children of Disease That

"Our Charlie Is as healthy and sound to
day as any child could be. When we placed
him under Dr. Shepard's care he was
badly afflicted with Catarrh and hay-fever.
He couldn't breathe through his nose and
was always trying to clear the passages by
hawking, spitting and coughing. The
Catarrh had bothered him for a long time
and Just seemed to rob him of all his
natural vitality. He was run down, weak,

was in Washington and was suddenly netted with an aggravated, ease of Inflammatory

paralyzed and I was only able to dress with assistance. I secured a botlleol G .OBOPb
and took a dose that night, rubbiug some on externally as directed. The following
morning I was surprised to find myself immensely relieved, and continuing treatment
woke the second morning cured. My arm was absolutely free from pain, aud all swelling
and atiirness had disappeared. The quickness and completeness of my core was re
markable. I have known for over a year of the great curative properties of your medicine

DsarSirs;-I would like to thank you for your great remedy, "6 DROPS," and tell
you what it has done for me. I had RheumatiHtn In every Joint and In the heart, and I
had Catarrh of the head for Mo years, I was so poorly that I lost the use of my legs and arms,
and could not move without pain. I was so crippled, that I had done but little work for
seven years, and our family physician, a good doctor, told me that my Rheumatism
and Catarrh were incurable, and 1 believed him. But now. after using ' 6 DROPS" only
two .months, I can truly say 1 have not felt so well for seven yearn. This medicine does
more than Is claimed for it At this time my Catarrh is much better, and I have scarcely
any Rheumatism at all and the heart weakness and pain are gone. My bearing is now good
and mv eyesight is much better i have gained more than 10 pounds of flesh and can dp
a full day's work. It is the best medicine I ever saw to give a mother who has a young child,
for it hn the same effect on the child as on the mother. It wards off Croup and cures tne
