The Populist candidate fur th Presi dency told the farmers of Kansas In bis Toieka sjieech of acceptance that Ihey were not Sharing in the prosjier Ity which the lb-publican iwrty claims has come iiiku the whole fjSsuntry. The Kaunas farmers who hcaril him knen that he wax stating aii nntiuth, but Ihey allowed him to say it aud to carry 11 way with him tin impression that they telrevcd -what ho said. There Is not a farmer in Kansas to day wlio does not share iu the pros iK'tlly of the nation. Of all the farm ers lu "the country the Kan as fanners ought to l the find to acknowledge I lie leiniits Mtey liare derived from three ami a half years of Itepublican rule at Washington.

They cannot deny that, they are prosperous 'today to a phenomena: tT--gicc, because the condition of their homos, of their banks, and of their slate prove it. What is true of the Kansas farmers is tine of the fanners of every one of the fanning states.

After reach ing Xew York they huntt-tl around for some way to work their passage across the Atlantic, and with lack sjtill with them, they secured iassage on the big freighter Minneapolis, paying for their ride -by eariug for horses. They were ten days at sea, and ar rived at Tilbury dock, twenty-six Utiles from Iomlon. lu lirsi-rate shaiH-. and with nearly all of their $H Intact. Tliejr siM'Ut a week in Ixndo:i. visit ing it'll the: principal places of amuse ineiit awl litany historical spots, and then, they struck ut for Paris. When It came to getting across the channel, they found themselves up. against it for' the first time. There was but one way to get to the French capital, and that was to pay out-the. cash, so they paid their fare, $(Jd apiece for the round trip. They arrived. In Paris with a few dollars, not a friend with iu 3.000 miles, and no knowledge of the French language. They could not make themselves understood, and when they arrived at the cxiHsshloli grounds they sient nearly the whole of one day twfore they could gain -admission. Tltey found an Englishman, who showed them where to go. or they could never have got inside of the exposition. They -did not .'encoun ter more than a dozen Americans while abroad. They. lived very cheap ly In Paris, confining themselves to two meals a flay, ami then they went back to Tilbury dock, where the ship Mihneaitolis was still riding at anchor. Before quitting tlie ship they had par tially arranged to work" their way 1 tack 011 that 1oat. ami. their luck still witli them, they were engaged at ouce for service on . the return trip. The boat had been in port, eleven days. Keyes was employed as sculleryiuan. ami his business was to wash the pots. taus. ami other kitchen utensils 011 the big freighter. When he was not busy scrubbing dirty pots, etc.. he was compelhtl to peel potatoes, of which alxmt eight bushels were consumed a day. Young Donaldson was cast as the ship cook's mate, or cook's helis-r. He -had. to work in a room that was as hot as an oven, within a few feet of a huge tank of ! soiling. water, ami the heat nearly used him up for a few days. Put he got used toit, all but getting up' iu the . morning at 3:.'! o'clock, which was tlie usual hour for going to work for both the young men. "We had tlie worst luck arter we got back to Xew York." sahl Keyes. "We neethm a little money., and it bad been sent to us. but we didn't get it on tune, vv e hail a few very serious hours, but hot once were we compelled to go hungry. We came from New York to Chicago 011'. our stock con tracts. There were' about 4hi men in the: crew of thcMiuueaisolis. and you can imagine what it was to cook .and clean for them. .The liremeii were Ihe busieste iot.

This gallant old grognaitl. who, styles himself, gran diosely.
