THE SUN.
NEW YORK, 1888.

MORE people have read THE SUN DUR
1Nl ing the year just now passing than
ever before since 1t was first printed. No
other newspaper published on this side of
the earth has been bought and read in any
year by so many men and women.
We are credibly informed that people
buy, read and like THE Sun for the follow
ing reasons, among others:
Because Its news columns present in at
tractive form ard with the greatest posi-
BILE accuracy whatever has interest for
humankind; the events, the deeds and
misdeeds, the WISDOM the philosophy, the
notable folly, the solid sense, the improv-
ing nonsense-all the news o. the busiest
world at present revolving in space.
Because people have learned that in its
remarks concering persons and affairs The
SUN makes practice of telling them the
exact truth to the best of its ability three
hundred and sixty-five days in the year,
before election as well as after, about the
whales as well rs the small fish, in the face
of dissent as plainly and fearlessly as when
supported by general approval. The sun
has absolutely no purposes to serve, save
the information of its readers and the fur
therance of the common good
Because it ia everybodv's newspaper.
No man is 30 humble that THE SUN is in
different to his welfare and his rights. No
man is so rich that it can allow injustice
to be done him. No man, no ASSOCIATION
of men, is powerful enough to be exempt
from the strict application OF its principles
of right and wrong,
Because in politics il has fought for
dozen years, without intermission and
sometimes almost alone among newspa-
pers, the fight that has resulted in the re-
cent overwhelming popular verdict against
Robesonism and for honest government.
No matter what party is in power, THE
Sun stands and will continue to stand like
rock for the interests of the people
against the ambition of bosses, the en-
croachments of monepolists, and the dis
honest schemes of public robbers
All this is what we are told almost daily
by our friends. One man holds that THE
Sun is the best religious newspaper ever
published, because its Christianity is un-
diluted with cant. Another holds that it
is the best Republican newspaper printed,
because it has already whipped half oftbe
rascals out Of that party, and IS proceed
ing against the other half with undimin-
ished ylgor. A third believes it to be the
best magazine Of general literature in ex-
istence, because its readers miss nothing
worthy of notice that is current in tho
world of thought. So every friend of THE
SUN discovers one of its many sides that
appeals with particular force to his indi-
vidual liking.
If you already know THE SUN YOU will
observe that in 1888 it is a little better
than ever before. If you do not already
know THE SUN, you will find it TO be a
mirror of all human activity, a storehouse
of the choicest products OF common Sense
and imagination, Il mainstay for the cause
of honest government, a sentinel for gen
uine Jeffersonian Democracy, scourge
for wickedness OF every species, and an
uucommonly good investment for the COM
ing yeaE,

Lutte IrOuOLe TO Secure t.
A handy thing indeed to have in the
house will be the special edition of the
B. & 0. Red Book, now in course of
preparation. The surprising results
of this years elections all over the
country make most interesting study
when presented in shape for ready
comparisons. Of more or less interest
just now in contrasting the past and
the present, and the future as calcu-
lated from the might have been"
will prove an all-absorbing occnpa-
tion to very many people.
In the new Red Book, which will
bear the cleverly adapted title of
"How Twas Done," all the figures
are from official sources, being receiv-
ed under the seal of the secretaries Of
the different States, and therefore
correct beyond all question. The
comparisons and calculatins generally
are made by experienced statistici ans
and may be depended upon as accur-
ate. The scope of the little volume
is something more than ever before
attempted in a political textbook,
going farther into details and sum-
Ing up facts more concisely than the
ordinary run of such publications.
About everything that one wishes to
know is presented clearly and in
telligently. The comparisons of the
vote of this year with the vote at
the preceding election are full and
complete, showing not only majorities
but losses and gains on Republican,
Democratic, Prohibition and Green
back vote. Where States have been
redistricted congressionally, the COM
parsons are made in districts as now
constituted, and in the remarks all
the changes in districts are shown, as
well as verJ much interesting data
relative to candidates, etc., etc.
The book will be an invaluable
reference for use at coming elections,
and those who take any interest
whatever in politics should adopt
means to secure a copy now, as possi-
bly, when they want it most the edi-
tion will be exhausted. The mere
trouble of inditing request to G. K.
Lord, Baltimore, Md, will insure the
receipt Of copy of the book as no
charge whatever is made for it. Al
ready very large mum per OF request s
have been received, and envelopes
are being addressed as requests come
in, so that the books may be forward
ed Immediately upon receipt from the
printer. No publication Of sim lar
character can be procured for money.
Like all the B. g. o. publications,
it will be gem from typograph.
ical standpoint. AS an indication
Of the value of the work, quite a
number of prominent newsparer pub
lishers have requested sufficient num-
ber of copies to send to their entire
list Of subscribers at their own expense
Any subscriber or patron of this
paper will have copy of the book

An Irnportant peeIsIon.

Topeka Commonwealth: The Supreme
court filed an important opinion in re-
latlon to the right of railroad companies
to proceed in the construction OF their
road pending an appeal on the assess
ment of damages for right of way. The
court decides that an appeal by the land
owner does not prevent them from con-
structing their road on giving bond to
try the additional damages that may be
assessed in the district court. The court
holds that thelegIslature has right TO
make this condition OF the right of ap-
peal.
The legislature of 1891 authorized a
state road to be laid out between Topeka
and Granville, and required the coun-
ties OF Shawnee and Jefferson TO pay for
the same. This the county commission
ers of Shawnee county refused to do
and mandamus was asked for in the
district court TO compel such payment
Judge Morton decided in favor of the
county, on the ground thai the legisla
ture had no right to impose such bur.
den on the county against its consent
The supreme court reversed this decision
yesterday, and held that the Legislature
had the right to require a county 4
build road within its limits and to pa,

IN LUCK.
How Bread Cast Upon the Waters Re-

MANY DAYS

How Bread Cast Upon the Waters Re-
turns to an EmpOria Boy After
Many Days.
The following account of how good
fortune overlook an Emporia boy has
much of the interest of a romance,
but we are pleased to note that
the statements herein set forth
are true, having been communica-
ted to US by a gentleman whose reputa-
ton for yeracity has never been ques-
toned In this community where he is
well known and universally esteemed I:
In 1872 Captain Cliff Burge, of the
Emporia Rifles, started to the San Juan
country, accompanied by Robert Brey
of Ottawa, who was special friend of
Burge. Shortly after arriving at their des-
tination, Brey, through the influence of
Burge, secured the position OF clerk in
health being too delicate to permit him
to undertake the hardships of life in the
mines, the path which Cliff had chosen
as the shortest one to fortune. Before
leaving for the mining camp, which
was 10 miles from Del Norte, Burge
committed to the care of his friend
Brey, fine gold watch, which was a
family heirloom, and which he priced too
much to take any risks on losing. Short
| ly after arriving at the mines Burge re-
ceIved letter from Brey stating that he
had been offered 500 shares of stock in
the San Juan Consolidated Mining Com
pany, for the watch, end advis-
ing CliG to ACCEPT the propo-
sition. The latter wrote Brey not
TO make the trade, but before the letter
could reach Del Norte. Burge received
intelligence that Brey had purchased
the stock and would transfer it to him
as soon as he came back from the mines.
| On his return, Burge only stopped at
Del Eorts long enough to admit of
change of stage horses. being in haste
to get home, and in a short CON
versation with Brey at that time
the latter told him that the stock was in
his (RFey's) name, but that he would
convey it immediately and send the pa
pers to the proper owner when he
reached Emporia.
Having great confidence in the invest
ment, and fearing that Burge might dis
pose of the stock for less than it was
worth, Brey postponed making it over
to Burge, who had ceased to think much
about it until one day he received let
ter announcing the death of Brey, and
about a week thereafter he noticed in
The EMPoRIA NEWS an account of
Hon. Tom. Bowen, formerly of Kan
sas," having struck it rich by virtue of
an investment in the San Juan COnsoli-
dated Mining Company.
Burge Immediately advised lawyer
at Del Norte of Brey's investment, and
put in his claim Eor the stock purchased
with the watch referred to above, and
we take sincere pleasure in noting that
the matter has terminated in such a
manner as 20 net Mr.. BHrge between
81 500 and $4,000, which 1t Is his pur-
pose to invest in home in this city.
There Is no one in Emporia who is
more deserving of such windfall than
Cliff Rurge, or who has more friends to
rejoice with him in his good fortune.

Blondins fame has lasted longer,
perhaps, than that of any Rope walker
of the century, but it is now permanent
ly eclipsed by the exploits of the beauti-
full and intrepid lola. On a slender
three-quarter inch rope. poised 100 feet
in the air, she wheels her little daughter
in child's barrow with as much ease
as q mother would trundle her baby
along theSSsidewalk. She crosses blind
folded with her head enveloped in a
sack aud no other balance than a ia
panese sunshade. and she rides bicycle
across the frightful chasm with as much
insouciance as if she were upon the
ground. Her feats are but portions OF
the attractions presented by Forepaugh's
