THE LEGISLATURE.

That sturdy Republican, Hon. J. 81.
Franklin, editor of the Russell Record,
has this to say of the Republican nomi-
nees this fall for the legislature: "A
prominent lawyer of Topeka once re-
marked that the Kansas legislature was
an ADLER body than the congress Of the
United States. The character of nomi-
nations being made throughout the state
this fall indicates that the next legisla-
ture will be equal, in point Of ability, to
its predecessors: Indeed, it seems that
the nominations for legislative positions
are of rather higher order, as a usual
thing, than they have been heretofore.
The next House of Representatives will
contain number of distinguished men,
and still larger number of men who will
grow into prominence and influence with
continued public service and experience"

NO ONE DENIES.

No one denies but that Pagan paid for
his (Turner's) nomination. No one de-
MES but that he is paying Hanback,
bank notes, and that in turn Hanback, is
stumping the district for him. Lincoln
Democrat.
The 'no-one-denies' assertions of the
Democrat are virtually true. They are Of
Democratic origin, and come from the
long-felt want on that side of something
substantial to talk about.
With Republicans, there are always
enough issues of substance to discuss to
preclude the necessity of their using
heavy ordinance against blank cartridges.

Going for Gibbs.

Last Monday afternoon a raging fire
from the south struck the ranch of County
Treasurer Gibbs. It cooked good deal
Of his large patch of native timber,
destroyed large share of his stock range,
ten tons of hay in the stack, and a good
many posts in the line of his fence. Mr..
Gibbs places his loss, on low estimate,
at $500. This he will sue the railroad
company for. He says the smoke stack
of an afternoon train on Monday started
the fire.
No other damage, as far as he knows
was done, except the burning of strip
OF range from the railroad to his ranch
just this side the Saline river.

GILES CANVASS.

This, from the Gaylord Herald, reveals
how ruthlessly Mr.. Gile is bearing down
on our Republican candidate for congress.
An approach to business by Democrat
in political canvass certainly would
bring an earthquake along:
Last Monday evening Col. w. s. Gile,
Democratic nominee for congress, ad-
dressed small crowd of men and boys
at the rink. The colonel is not brilliant
speaker, and being besides utterly igno-
rant of public affairs, his address was not
interesting except as fresh illustration
of the fact that the Democratic party is
only Renaissance of days long gone by.
