Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Letters to Governor Lewelling My dear Governor: All over Kansas, and far beyond the boundary lines of our splendid State, the attention of people is turned towards you. The question is asked by men and women interested in our State and its future. What will Governor Lewelling do? In this brief letter I do not purpose to insult you with flattery or to belittle you with abuse. We are facing a most serious condition of affairs, that may at any moment culminate in a disgraceful personal struggle and possible loss of life. You are the recognized head and leader of your party, and if our State is further disgraced by the revolutionary action of the minority of your part in the House, you and your administration will be held responsible. It will be useless for you to say that it was the action of the Legislature, over which you had no control. That excuse will not be received as a good one. You can control the Populist side of the Legislature at any time. That the present attitude of the minority is due to sympathy and support advanced by the present majority of the Senate, and by you and the other members of your administration, there is no shadow of doubt. Do you suppose fifty-eight members of the House representing your party would have considered the idea of organizing this branch of the Legislature if the administration and the Senate had been Republican? No, sir; the most idiotic legal adviser they are now guided by would not have entertained the proposition for one moment. The present attitude of the Populists in the House is due to your sympathy and support, and you have the power to stop the anarchistic revolution now going on if you so desire. If you call your State officers together, and ask Jerry Simpson, Willits, Breidenthal, and Judges Webb and Doster into the conference, and say to them that the present condition of the Legislature is damning the State as well as the party and must stop at once, it will stop. There is not an intelligent man in Topeka cognizant of the facts of the situation that does not know this to be true.
