Morality and Democracy clash in Kansas annexation quarrel
A heated Kansan pamphlet denounces both the morality and democracy parties for alleged corruption and annexation schemes aimed at undermining reforms. It recalls the 1890 defeat of a morality faction, the burning of an effigy, and a county name change as proof of enduring political malice. The text claims Republicans seek alliance with Democrats as a private annex to weaken the people. Get up a club and help along the good work.

Great Wave of Prosperity Now Meets Bankruptcies
The so called prosperity under the McKinley tariff is said to have collapsed into a wave of bankruptcies. In the first six months of the year over six thousand business men failed, totaling nine ty-two million dollars, up from last year by more than six hundred failures and sixty-five million dollars in losses. The author argues money power aims to squeeze small merchants and concentrate trade, foretelling monopolies in Kansas towns and higher prices in cities.
