A NOVEL SUICIDE.

Ohio has furnished an improvement on
suicide. The Cincinnati Gazette gives an
account of a very novel one which recently
occurred in that State. A German girl,
Mary Keohl, was in love with young Ger
man named Ben Litchenberg, but as he
was Catholic, and she Protestant, her
parents opposed the match, and he told her
he would no; marry her. She hung her.
self with clothes line, leaving letter to
Litchenberg, in which she declared she
"died for love-" In this letter she left
minute directions concerning the dis
po-al of her remains. She selected rs pail
bearers her lover and three other young
men OF the village. The people of the
place were so superstitious about such
things that it was not until her body was
placed in its coffin that any one would re-
move the rope from the girls neck. Her
directions, however, were literally complied
with, and when the suicide was taken to the
grave her remains were carried by the
young man for whom she had abandoned
earth and renounced Heaven.

THE PEOPLES PARTY IN CHICAGO.

The Pittsburg Commercial says that there
was great rejoicing among the ''indepeE-

election. it was held to be a great triumph
OF the people over the politicians oil indie
pendent over partisan action; of honest and
incorruptible men over corrupt political o.

over it as an evidence of the emancipation

only rule. Municipal government was to
be freed from the tyranny of party control,
and the millennium was 10 be ushered in
with the spectacle of a city free from the
faint of politics and clear from the filth OF
jobbery.
Chicago has now enjoyed this happy
millennial state for a couple of years or so.
She has given it fair trial, and has reaped

WHAT KANSAS CAN no.

Kansas has entered upon a season OF
plenty. The farmers six months ago ovel
the State, were sad and desponding, they
only remained with us because they owned
land, and had not the money to leave. But
now great change has taken place, instead
Of whining and complaining, the grangers
are jubilant and are advising friends in the
East to emigrate to the Garden State Corn
in Leavenworth and adjoining counties
some OF which has been planted three
times, is now higher than in the States OF
Iowa, Illinois or Indiana.
Mr.. G. A. Huron, the gentlemanly editor
OF the Valley Falls Neu Era, called a,
The TINES Cfice yesterday, and brought
with him some corn raised on the
line Of the Kansas Central railway,
which il over twelve feet in height.
He says it is but sample of what a
great many farmers in Jefferson county,
lying within the district desolated by the
grasshoppers, can show. He also had
some millet which measured about six and
one-half feet. We have in our editorial
room some millet which was presented to
us by Mr.. Geo. H. Keller, OF this county,
which is six feet in height. 1t is true that
in Doniphan county some restitution still
exists, but no aid will be asked of any one
outside the State. With this single excep-
ton, there is not a county which is not
blessed with plenty. What will the people
Of the East say of grasshopper country
which produces corn twelve feet high? But
Kansas always was State of wonders.

THE INSURANCE DEPARrNxNr.

We have revived from Mr.. Grin T.
Welsh, State SUP .rintendent of Insurance
the fifth annual report Of the Department
The work is carefully prepared, and is par.
ticularly interesting to insurance men. 1t
was very warm in our office last evening,
in fact too warm to peruse the report, but
in glancing over the pages We find the fol-
lowing items of interest to the general
reader: In the cities of Atchison, Fort
Scot, Lawrence, Leavenworth and Topeka,
there were 81 fires during the year of 1874 /;
of these "a were incendiaries, 81 defective
flues, Q unknown, and q from all other
causes. Amount of property destroyed,
S56,7s7; amount of insurance, SCI, sos /;
Insurance companies estimate the amoral
hazard" at from thirty to fifty per cent. of
all fines. The honest insurers have to paw
double price to cover these hazards. The
amount paid for insurance in the State
during 1874 was SS27 ,566,77, and the total
amount of losses paid S2l4,6s7 so, or about
seventy-fve per cent of the net receipts.
The whole amount of property insured was
81 ,S9O, 1885. The average rate paid was
very nearly one and one-half per cent.
Take from the amount received, the
amount paid for losses and expenses, and it
shows that the companies paid Sl.O5 and a
traction over for every dollar received.

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK

Tangible facts and figures, bearing upon
the present condition and future Of the
country, are deeply interesting at this time
We are, therefore, pleased to place beiort
our readers some important results OF al
elaborate inquiry into the condition o.
business matters, contained in the semi-an
nual circular of the Mercantile Agency o.
RIG. Dun 4 Co, presented TO US by Mr.
Edwin Green, manager OF the Leavenworth
branch. This institution, more than any
other, nv its alliance with the leading mer'
chant. and bankers in all the centres oil
trade. and its army OF correspondents al
over the country, Possesses peculiar faciii
ties for this task.
The figures which the Agency presents
AZ 10 the failures for the first six months oil
the current year, are important As showing
that, notwithstanding the severe and uni
yersal depression, the casualties in busl'
hess have not been excessive. The total
number Of failures in the entire Union are
stated to I've only 1917, which is very
small quota in view Of the large number in
brlsiness-reported by this Agency as over
$4,000. The total amount Of liabilities
due by the parties who have failed is stated
to be nearly S75,000,0O0.
Accurate comparison oil these figures for
the same months in previous years is i'm
possible, owing to the absence OF previous
semi-annual returns, but dividing by one
half the number OF failures for the entire
twelve months Of previous years, the fol
lowing will show comparison sufficiently
near the mark Tor all practical purposes

lican party. Its fidelity to the Republic
has been tested. 1t was true in the time
OF peril it cannot be untrue in time of &C.
curity. There is a risk, a positive danger
in trusting Democracy. Its record il bad,
its present teachings are dangerous, its
leaders are unworthy Of confidence. What
We know 10 be good and reliable we should
earnestly support. What We believe 10 lie
bad and unrelia We should reject"
We think tina. .hese are true words from
a reliable magazine. Let Republicans in
Kansas be prudent and cautious. Do not
lie carried away by The Democrats when
they tell you that their party is not the
one Of 1865, but that it is changed. Re-
member that the principles and objects are
the same, whether the organization be
known As Liberal, Reform or Indepen-
liant

REPUBLICANS, STAND FIRM.

The Washington Republic truly says
The man who would vote and work
against the Republican party because a few
faults have been developed in its splendid
record OF fourteen years, is as wise as the
man who destroyed his wagon wheel be-
cause active service had scratched the main,
on Its surface. The purest man tina, ever
lived had his faults. They belong to human
nature. If We overlook virtues and magni-
fy tritiing faults, the most illustrious char.
acter must pass under our condemnation.
The Republican party must be Judged
from the standpoint of common sense and
ordinary justice. There is enough revealed
to the eye, seen by all men, that is grand
and praiseworthy in its history, without
applying the microscope to the inspection
OF imaginary faults
The party lays no claim to perfection,
but ii does to political honesty and true
patriotism, and points to its past record
for the vindication of this claim. If +,
has committed errors it has been quick to
remedy them. 1t has labored to 40 right
Justice, humanity, national unity, have
been the objects towards which its face has
been turned. To advance, protect and Sc
cure these rs the groundwork of our ma.
tionality, its whole energy has been d.
rected.
There is no risk in trusting the Repub-

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS,

The Roman Catholic Archbishop of Gin.
cinnati, Purcell, does not oppose the public
school system. A candidate for graduation
in Catholic college in Ohio, referred to the
public schools as Goddess schools" in his
graduation essay, before the Archbishop
which drew from him the following:
am sorry that the common schools have been ar
ragned Tonight as the enenies Of education. In
th. public schools children do not acquire Goddess
education. Nothing is taught there that is against
God find that of the best scholars, the best
men, and the hest women, received their incipieni
education in the common schools. They can't he
called Goddess.
We are glad to hear prelate of Arch
bishop Purcell's standing speak so sensibly
on this all important subject. We do not
believe that the majority Of the Catholics
in this country are antagonistic to the Pub
lie Schools. They have common sense
enough to know that they are the bulwarks
OF liberty, and that our Common Schools
have been the friend of the poor mans
child since the system was inaugurated.

MUNICIPAL TAXATION

As Chicago and St. Louis have been
comparing the annual cost Of running those
cities, Cincinnati steps in and shows that,
though having some pretension TO costly
municipal government, she falls over 4 ;nii-
lion dollars annually below either OF them.
II the figures given by the Cincinnati Com
n.ereid he correct, the appropriation bill Of
Chicago, 1875, foots up Si,5S7 600; OF st.
Louis, 81, 10000; of Cincinnati, SS,l15,-
900. The Chicago Fire Department costs
S57G, 200 year; the St. Louis So, 900 the
Cincinnati S259,99i. The Chicago harbor
costs S255, 900, that of St. Louis Sl79, while
the Cincinnati wharf cost 81 800. The
Chicago House OF Correction costs 81, 600 f;
the ST. Louis House OF Industry and House
Of Refuge, $4,000; the Cincinnati House
of Refuge, $4,000, and the Workhouse,
S69, 500. The gas bill Of Chicago runs up
to $50, 900 per annum, that Of St. Louis to
S216,i and Cincinnati's to sos, S3S. The
Chicago police cost 1851, 40, and the St.
Louis, Si56,G00, and that of Cincinnati
S43S,O95 The Chicago Health Depart
ment costs S97, SIS, that of st. Louis 1885,
600, while the sanitary account OF Cincin-
natl fits up only $685. There may how
ever, be some items OF expense in connec-
ton with these departments Of Chicago and
St. Louis which Cincinnati charged under
different heads.
The expenditures for sewerage in Chica-
go aggregate S5l7 900; in St. Louis they
foot up SlS3,000, and in Cincinnati Sl46,-
253. All street work in Chicago, including
opening new streets and cleaning them,
costs 1899 900 year the same service in
St. Louis costs S9il 900, while the expendi-
lures from Cincinnati's General Fund, in
Guiding tie cost OF making and repairing
streets, payment of salarie7, etc, foot up
S8T7,274.
Some idea OF the expense OF conducting
the government of New York city, may be
formed from the rate of taxation which is
about to lie Determined from the assessors
returns recently scntin The aggregate as
ses-cd valuations are fixed al 81 ,l00,-
9l3,699, and the sum 70 he
raised hy taxation upon this
valuation is fixed at $32,19l, i72,2S. To
this last sum, however, is 10 he added al
amount, limited by law TO n sum not eH-
ceedins three per cent. of tax to I've raised,
designed TO cover deficiencies in collections.
II, then, there he added 10 the sum rlready
given as the total necessary for expenditure
the further sum Of SIG, 4l626 for deficien-
cies in collection, rate of s2.96 per 500
will produce the grand total OF So, So ,73S3.-
40 as the product of such 4 rate. Ii should
be stated, however, that of this sum SS,ol2,-
$50 represents the State tax. But the price
is fearful one TO pay for the whistle.

CERTAIN OF succRss.

Ohio is waking mp. The Independent /"
journals, all OF which are Democratic by
brevet, affect 10 believe that the result in
that State is doubtful but the Republicans
OF Ohio have no such doubt. They feel
sure OF success, not from over-contidence,
but from practical survey OF the field.
The Cincinnati Gazette, for instance, says
The prospects for a sweeping Republican victory
tins fail are growing brighter every day. They are
brighter now than they were tire first Of the MONTH
and were brighter then than on the first of June
This remark Is not made in the way Of campaign
boastng, but as the deliberate conclusion formed
from hrg. number Of letters, conversations with
men In different parts Of the State, and q careful
examination of the country weekly papers. The
Republicans are everywhere hopeful. The Demo-
Gratis are oespo,l.lent
