This idle uneducated labor is now
spreading over the country in the shape
of tramps. In plain terms, the over
stocked labor market of the cities has
developed a new industry in the United
States. This new Industry is profession
al beggary. For the tramp is a beggar
or thief, per force or inclination.
Our present unbalanced condition OF
society and business is result of fifty
years steady growth, and not wholly of
the war and the change which it wrought.
War aggravated the disease undoubted-
| ", but it was only an interruption in
the steady stream, which momentarily
diverted its course. The primary causes
reach far back into our history. The
tramp is the natural and inevitable re
suit of the CONFUSION which we have at
tempted to describe, as the mountain
chains are of the volcanic eruption OF
the earth This loss of balance will
slowly adjust itself as all disturbances
in nature ultimately do. The Overstock
| of labor which has collected into the
cities will be diffused through the coun
try, and by degrees learn the business OF
agriculture; but the disease in our body
polite and society will not be cured by
| the prescriptions which the many stump
doctors and quacks are Illuminating tc
the people. Neither will the country
go to the dogs if their medicines are moi
taken, as they threaten.
These demagOgues who, when they
can get the ear of crowd, mount stand
and tell them that millions of laboring
men are in rags, and starving, and tina
the government is the prime cause of i
all, and if their advice be taken a speedy
end shall be put to this state of affairs
are the very worst enemies the people
have. They lie like Satin, inasmuch a:
they promise what they have no power
| to perform.

ADDRESS OF THE STATE CENTRAL
COMMITTEE,

To THE REPUBLICAN VOTERS OF THE
STATE OF KANSAS: 1t has come to the
knowledge of the Republican State Cen
trail Committee that a movement is on
foot IN several of the states for the cleo
ton of members of congress at large, in
addition to the number already allowed
them by law. The rapid increase of the
population since the superintendent in
1870 is the reason assigned for this, step.
1t is safe to say that the population of
Kansas has doubled since the last Gen.
sus, and if there be any reason why any
of the states should have increased rep
resentatIOn in the house of representa-
tives, such reason will prominently ap-
ply to Kansas. The committee have
therefore deemed it the part of wisdom
and prudence to place upon the ticket a
candidate for ongressman-at-large, and
upon consultation at a meeting specially
called, have unanimously selected Hon.
James r. Hallowell, of Cherokee county,
for that position. Mr. Hallowell is EN-.
inently qualified to represent the people
of this state in congress. He is in every
sense a true republican, worthy of the
support of the party, and the committee
confidently expect him to receive the
full Republican vote of this state. The
Republican press throughout the state
is requested to print Mr. HallOWell's
name on the ticket, and the county cen.
tral and district committees to cause his
name to be placed on all ballots to be
cast by Republican voters.
In conclusion the committee urge up
on Republican voters to see that Kansas
shall elect none but Republicans either
as active or contingent members of con

The legislation of the country is con-
stantly making the erich man richer and
the poor man poorer" yells the fiatist
shrieker from every stump; and yet the
rich men are breaking mp by the thou
sand every year. 1t is not the currency
that is to blame for all the trouble. 1t
is our system of living beyond our in
comes, our reckless plunging in debt as
individuals, corporations, townships and
states the system of imitation that
prevailed for fifteen or twenty years, that
IS hurting more than all things else.
Pay day came and found us in debt in
dividually, and every other way, and
nothing TO pay with, and that is what
ails us to-day. Within the range of our
acquaintance we can count men by the
score who can lay whatever misfortunes
they have met with 20 their own reck-
leeAness. Yet they blame it on the gov
eminent. If we had twice the currency
we now have they would repeat the same
follies in business way they did when
they had chance 20 better themselves.
Il may be popular with some people to
howl against the Republican party be
cause of their misfortanes, but it is not
very truthful.

Ahairs in Lyon County.
Kansas Farmer. Oct. End.

Quite little time has elapsed since
any report of the doings of Lyon county
folks has found its way into the Farmer.
We are jogging along in the same old
way as heretofore. Business in Empo-
ria is little different in volume from that
of the same time last year, as but little
gram Is bought for shipment, the most
that finds its way to market being used
bby our millers.
The cattle men are in pretty good
spirits and are putting into market quite
good many cattle, at what they con-
slider good figures for the times. Mer-
chants are laying in heavier stocks in
| all lines than for several seasons past, in
anticipation of a good fall and winter
trade. The land dealers are the busiest
people in town, notwithstanding the
discrimination made against us by the
railroad company in trying to induce
all immigration to go on to Kinsley and
the other points where they have lands
| for sale.
The Normal school has opened up its
| fall term with about the usual attend
ance, 20 to IS students.
The great item of interest is the be-
ginning of work on the railroad between
this place and Eureka, by new com
pany recently. Speculation is rife as to
which road It is they are building. One
set of advertisements circulated about
Emporis, call for men and teams to
/ work on the kansas City, Emporia &
Southwestern r. r. 80 miles south OF
here. The calls for laborers and teams
circulated about darlington, by the same
set of contractors represent themselves
as grading the Kansas City, Burlington
s. Santa Fe r. e." at the same place
Now as it is proposed, 50 we are told, to
make it standard guage instead Of mar
row or 3-foot guage, as at first proposed,
and as the work is being done south OF
the point where the Burlington road
joins with the EmpoFia road, we are at
great loss to know just who is the most
likely to be benefited by the road, En-
poria, Burlington, or the parties setting
the thing up.

REFORM NEEDED.

The Pontiac (AIich.) Sentinel gives an
illustration Of the reform business in
that state, in the following details:
I'm 1873 reform wave swept over
this section Of the state, and resulting in
electing Joe Stitt treasurer of Livingston
county; w. B, ZenOr, treasurer of Put
nam county, and A, Whitaker, treas
urer of Woodford county, The reform
wave kept on sweeping aroNnd in 1875,
and the same men were returned TO OH
ces. Then came the result: Stitt ran
off with SIT 900; the next week ZenOr
skipped outwlth IS, 1000; and three weeks
ago Whitaker disappeared with SAL
co.,
In this state about the only man ever
elected by the reform party was little
Democratic Jimmy Watson, of Douglas
county-"Honest Jimmy" as he was
called. Last year he was found out to be
defaulter TO the amount of about $4O,-

We are tired of hearing about fiat"
money, and propose new name. Slide
is an easier name and pleasanter to the
sound, and we call it "slide" money. 1t
is expressive, because the price of the
money proposed to be issued would
slide up aud down at the beck of the
Wall street gamblers. And then again
it is expressive of the manner in which
the advocates of the fiat will slide "down
and out" after the November election.

Bent Murdoch, of the Walnut Valley
Times, says he does not propose to en-
gage in learned discussion of the mon
ey question, but he has some ideas on
the fiat" business. When this new
financial plan is adopted, he makes the
following suggestions.
when a young man gets on his paper
collar and goes to see his girl, she will
have written out on little slips of paper.
Glory Hallelujah-this is a kiss He
can put hundred of these kisses in his
vest pocket and go away happy. What's
the use of kissing your girl when YOU
have hundred of these kisses in your
vest pockets If the little ducksey-dar-
ling says it is kiss, it is kiss, and no
mistake, and the young printers devil is
bound to accept it as such, or doubt the
word of his sweetheart In fact, this

things. Now, brother Mitchell is ON
record in letter to the Lawrence Tri-
bune only two short years ago:

vor of paying our debts, and pay them
as we engaged to pay them; that is, in

mature. This cannot be done on any of

In Kansas the leading Democrats rely
entirely on the fiat vote to divide the Re
publican party so as to give the Demo
Gratis a chance. Some of them really
think they will be elected. Goodin, in

their own ticket, if they could not vote

making common cause against the Re
publicans.
