SNUFF.-A young fellow in East
Wheeling, who has been carrying boz
tie of snuff every Sunday night to his
charmer, has been compelled to cease his
visits owing to his now being out of en-
ployment, and not being able to raise the
requisite amount of money to buy the
regular bottle. 1.-Two souls with but a
single thought" are now at variance.
The young man contemplates suicide,
while the charmer awaits the arrival of
some fond Adonis with Safety collar
and her usual supply of snuff.
BAD WORK FOR THE AMERICAN

this week, and unless the American
team improves it will be apt to lose the
laurels it has heretofore worn.

n The Hutchinson Neacs, speaking of Halder-
mans candidacy for Governor, says it has under
stood that he was formerly Border Ruffian of
the most virulent type. The Necs is mistaken,
or has been misinformed. Judge Halderman was
formerly Democrat, but of the moderate type.
We have never heard him charged with Border
Ruffanism. When the rebelliou- broke ont, he
was among the first to enter the Union army,
and his gallantry and devotion to the cause was
never doubted Since the war, he has given the
Democracy great deal of trouble, by his advo-
csey of advanced ideas growing out of the war.
While still holding membership in the Democratic
party, be favored Republican measures of policy,
until finally he concluded that his proper place
was in the Republican party, and has entered
into full fellowship with it,
Since the above paragraph was published, last
week, the Hutchinson Necs has been better in
formed, and has corrected its error. Judge Hal
derman has always been reasonable in his politi-
cal views, loyal and progressive in his ideas and
thoroughly honorable in all his public acts. We
are unable to say whether he aspires to the Gov
ernOrship or mott but if he does, and receives the
Republican nomination, he will be triumphantly
elected. As Governor, he would be an honor to
the State.

n The best hit of the season, in the way of
new novel, We believe will be 'tAchsah," a
New England story, just Published in Boston.
The dashes of sentiment are charming, and the
bgoted Purtanism, cant and religious cloaking,
is dealt with as cleyerly as the Roundheads were
by Walter Scott. We should hardly think the
author novice; he writes under the aom de
plume of "Rev. Peter Pennot." We say he, since
only man would have fully recognized the val
ne of a tete tete of silence, and have called it

business is Rusiness /.

Newspapers are gradually but surely coming
down to the business principle thas 'ney mus
have pay for their work, and that tney' hke o'h-
er trades and professions, Will "orA Ior 'pose
who nav. This subject has received good
share of discussion by the Kansas press recently,
originating out of the lottery question. When
nersobs in a community wish TO inaugurate a
war AGAINST whiskey-selers or lotteries, any
other objectionable thing, their first move is u,
urge the local newspaper to ego for them,'
"pitch into them,n and "expose them.n- The
newspaper pitches in, and has the privilege of
fighting it out alone. He loses the patronage Of
the persons engaged in the business which he is
fighting, and of all their psrtisans, while per-
haps he does not gain a single dollar from the
other side. No one pays up his Averages a day
sooner, or gives him a nickeTs worth of addition
al work. Men will do ten times as much for
spite as they will for favor, especially where a
newspaper is concerned. 1t is such sweet re-
venge to say, "Stop my psper!"
When anything in a community needs pitch
ing into why not call upon the merchant, the
doctor, or the hotel keeper, go for iti 1t is as
much their business as it is that of the newspa-
per. Thepaper processes only to give the news
not to act as police, detective or executor of the
law. 1t has the same right to work for the per-
son engaged in an Objectionable calling, as the
merchant has to sell him goods.
Another dreadful thing in the eyes of many
people, is the idea that newspapers sometimes
receive pay from politicians. Newspapers make
politicians, and are entitled to something for it,
If man wants to be elected to an honor
able and lucrative position, and wants
newspaper to assist him, why is not the news
paper entitled to pay for iti If the politi-
clan hires team at livery stable, to carry him
around the country electioneering, the livery
man doesn't outrage anybodys sense of propriety
by receiving pay for it. A newspaper has pre-
cisely the same rights. If the public think this
is corrupting, and wish to do away with the
practice, their best plan is to take away the
temptation, by giving newspapers q better pat
ronage, and paying promptly for what they get.
When men are several years in arrears to a
newspaper, and do not know where the publish
er gets the money to buy a bundle of paper, pay
his hands, or feed his family, they are poor spec
linens to charge that he is influenced by money.
1t is about time that people settled down to
the eommon-sense idea that newspaper pub
hshing is business, not o mere enterprise for
the fun of the thing, or to cater to every mans
Whims, 1eslOusies, and sores. Any man or enter
prise is entitled to its services by paying for it,
and 1t is not dishonorable for paper to receive
pay for services rendered. 80, .-....-...

T People in the West are becoming less keen

1t appears to be too much of a skinning opera

determined to keep the tariff up to high mark ;
and hotels and boarding houses in Philadelphia

phia is calculating to get rich by skinning stran-
gers. To cap the climax, the city is filling mp

q They are raking up the mammoth news,
papers OF the past as curiosities for the Centen-
nial. Several sheets of large dimensions have
already been found. We remember that. along
in the forties, say from 1912 to 1850, Wilson &
Company published paper in New York, called
Wilson's Dspateh. Every Fourth of July and
Christmas, they would issue mammoth quarto,
four pages Of which were occupied with engrav-
ipgss and four pages with reading matter We

any that has yet been described. This Holiday

DEGENERATE STocK.-Isn't it about time to
stop this thing of bestowing distinguished con-
sideration upon chronic frauds and bummers,
because they happen to be sons or grandsons of
once famous menf We believe that Daniel
webster's dissolute sons are all gone, and Henry
Clay's degenerate stock became almost extinct
by the death of his idiot son in the lunatic asy-
lum, and his rebel son in the war. A son and q
grandson of John Quincy Adams turn up annu-
ally in Massachusetts, in connection with the
Governorship or Presidency, upon the sole claim
that they are very respectable, and are descend
ants of John Quincy Adams. Just at this time,
the country is being surfeited upon grandsons Oh
President Harrison. Last week, postmaster
named Taylor was tried in the United states
District Court at Topeka, for rObbing the mails'
The principal argument in his favor seemed 10
be, that he was a grandson of Gen. HARRISON
About the same time, slander against James U.
Blaine was being nailed by that gentleman, IN
Congress- The best reason the retailers OF the
slander could give for claiming it as true, was
the fact that the author was grandson OF Oeh.
Harrison. Now, Gen. Harrison was good Old
man, and did the country valuable service; and
he was slandered and abused more than any pub
lie man of this generation. He has been in his
grave for thirty-iye years; but if he has any
more grandsoDs who have not reported, they
had better come forward, speak their piece, and
be dismissed, that the old mans memory may
rest in peace tr.t.r -, .r

INSURANCE AGENTS, BE ON YOUR GUARD.-Tne
attention of insurance agents throughout the State
is called to the fact that the Hon. Orrn T. Welch,
Superintendent of the Insurance Department
for the State of Kansas, has decided that the
mere publication of the gross assets and labili-
ties of an insurance company doing bust ness in
the State, does not comply with the law.
We have carefully read the law, and know
that there can be no question as to the correct
ness of the decision. s.
The statement required to be published is the
official report made by the company to the
Superintendent, and this should be certified to
by having attached the certificate of the Superin-
tendeDt that it is correct copy of said statement.
