'.The SAME OLD PRICE.n-The Kansas Democ-
racy have tried often to gain popular favor,
but always came out at heavy discount. At
last, with every opportunity open, and with a
full knowledge of their past shortcomings, they
determined to 20 about the thing 80 deliberately,
and cody, and nicely, that they could not fail to
come of victorious. So they went into. .Conven-
tion, and-nomnated Click, and are in the same
old fix. 1t reminds of the story of the woman
and her butter. certain woman had the rep
utation of being dirty and nasty, that people
would not buy her butter, if they knew it. The
merchants, knowing the risk they took, would
never pay her much, by one-fourth, as they
did for other butter. Finally she discovered
that her butter was always at a discount, and
complained to the merchant about it, demanding
to know why she could not get much for her
butter as other people did. Being thus cornered,
the merchant frankly told her that her butter
was 50 dirty that but few would buy it, and he
was compelled to sell it for what he could get.
''Well," said she, .'Ill bet that my next butter
will be as nice as anybody's, and will bring the
same price" So, on next churning day, she
closed the room, took off all her clothing, so that
no dirt should drop from it, washed herself thor
oughly, and in her nude state proceeded to churn.
All went smoothly; the butter was ehurned,
worked and salted, and she placed the wooden
bowl containing it on u stool, while she turned
round to attend to something else. But in so
doing, she stepped on a slippery spot where the
buttermilk had splashed out, up went her heels,
and down she sat right hard in the bowl of but
ter, half covering herself with it. Scramblng
up, and scraping the butter from her person,
first with one hand, then with the other, and
slashing it back into the bowl, she exclaimed {:
"Well, guess this will have to go in at the
same old price!"

e The Governor of Kansas renominated on an
antirairoad platform, sails around the country with
a special car. He was first brought out for a third
term by a newspaper which is supported by the mo
ney of railroad syndicate, formed for the purpose
of establishing organ. He had proclamation
written calling the Legislature together to tinker
with the prohibitory law and railroad officials Undue
ed him not to Tissue it. He distributed handsfnl Of
passes TO good temperance men in each county with
which to attend the convention. Ii looks though
the Republican party of Kansas was dying from
shystering, shams and hypocrisy. Tho honest Re
publican voters should give the leaders lesson by
voting for the head of the other tieket.-JiariioH

ASwEET-SCESTED PARTY.-A st. John paper
says "the Germans may go, if they will; their
vote cannot affect st. John. For every beer
driuker who leaves the Republican party on ac-
count of prohibition, temperance Democrat
will come in." Another says that McCabe will
be scratched; that there was no need for the
Republicans to put nigger ou the ticket, to get
the eolored vote. Nohler says he doesn't mind
being beaten 50 much, but what he hates is be.
ing beaten by nisgsr. Another paper says the
Republicans who are opposed to prohibition can
go; st. John can be elected without them. 1t
is quite evident that this ST. John crowd is n
nice, dainty party, too sweet for anything ex-
cept to be sPrinkled with cologne water, and
packed away in a bandbox.

A SWEET PILL-The people of Topeka are get
ting n belly full of K. b. Welch, who has made
himself 50 oficious in whiskey prosecutions. He
has written a letter back to Illinois, where he
came from, telling what tremendous man he
is, and that he is so obnoxious to the whiskey
men that his life is in danger, and he has to have
a special police force to guard him, when he goes
ont. This stuff got telsgraphed over the coun-
try, and of course returned to Topeka. As there
is not word of truth in it, the citizens of Tope-
ka are naturally indignant that their town
should be reported far and wide as being at the
mercy Of outlaws. Welch has offered reward
of $500 for the detection of the person who cui
his harness and shaved his horses tail. Let
somebody arrest Welch, and claim the reward
He is just the style of fanatical fool who would
do damage to his own person or property, in or.
