Thompson, of Sedgwick, was
elected as n rampant Rupubllcan,
we belieye. He could not bear the
idea of voting for n man who had
supported Greeley. The bare sug-
gestion turned his delicate stomach.
But it is fact that he voted for
Tom Feulon, life long Democrat,
for two or three days. That's the
kind of n man Thompson is.

RELIGION AND POLITICS.
''Ths Duties of Christian Citizenship"

4 anu OasASS vs. OAtA6D1oAAR-
At the recent session of the Leav-
enworth district conference of the
II. z. church, held at the fist n.
E. church in Leavenworth, the fol-
lowing report, submitted by a sps-
cial committee, appointed to report
on "the duties of Christian citizen
ship" was adopted and ordered
furnished the press for publication
ave believe that the power of
Christianity in public and political
affairs, in this country, is nearly if
not quite lost, from the fact that it
is not organized and thus wisely
directed; while sufficient, If united
ly put forth, to exert q controlling
/ fiuence in both federal, state and
municipal governments.
Though il is quite possible that
Christian voters, and those whom
they could control On questions of
pnblic morals and civil ethics, in
many localities, perhaps in the ag-
gregate would be q minority, vet
it must be obvious to every one
that they are quite as responsible
as though they were q majority, for
the reason that they hold the bal.
ance of power, and thus have
controlling influence. No organ
lied party of to-day, not even the
(OBce) great republican party, could
succeed without the votes of Chris
tian men. At present moral and
Chrisiian voters are distributed
among the political parties, which
ig4oSs ali these vital questions
while within and among these
parties, the enemies of morality
and religion are thoroughly organ
lied and successfully at work.
For example, the whisky interest,
which largely governs this country
to-day, aud amounts to more in its
annual sales than one hundred mil
lions OF doIlars-more than half
our present national debts com.

Eldorado and Augusta are hav-
ing q big fight on county lines.
Augusta has bill before the legis-
lature To cut the county in two
three or four miles south OF Eldor-
ado. The bill calls the new county
Yates, and locates the county seat
at Augusta. This would probably
be a lgoOd thing for Augusta, and
we don't blame her for trying TO
yet the bill through. But EldOrado
don't want it and as it is hard
matter TO change county lines il
there is any considerable oppOsl-
ton. we conclude the bill will fail.
