A SIGNIFICANT ARTICLE.

Considering the source from which
they come the following comments or
"The Anti-Saloon Republican Move.
ment" which appeared in the New
York Tribune May D, are significan,
and deserve the careful attention of ev.
cry republican:
The belief that the saloon in politics
is anevil agency, recognition Of an alli-
ance with which is incompatible with
the maintenance of the high standards
after which the organization has al.
ways striven, has for some time been
growing, and the mistakes of the poll
ticians who have pursued a short
sighted policy of assumed expediency
have had the effect of strengthening
revolt against continued compromise
with the rum power. The anti-saloon
republican conference, which meets in
New Jersey, is the first practical issue
of this state Of feeling, and it demands
careful consideration from republicans
generally.
The lines upon which it is sought to
conduct the new movement are moder-
ate and cautious. The first thing
aimed at is the committal of the repub.
lican party against the saloon. It is
felt that this is the natural initiative.
Hitherto, the projectors of the move
ment argue, the course Of the party has
not been such as to invite the conf
dence .end cooperation of those who
are most earnest in their opposition to
the saloon influence. This has been
because undoubtedly large percent
age Of republicans were unprepared
for drastic measures Of reform. The
restrictiOnists generally acted with the
party. The extremists tended more
and more to withdraw and act by
themselves. In these circumstances
1t Is held that by pledging the party to
an anti-saloon policy the dissentions
OF the past may be done away with
and the ground prepared for a union of
all the temperance sentiment Of the
country under the republican banners.
1t is plain that if the conclusions of the
organizers of the new movement are
well founded, the success of such de-
parture would be attended by more
results than any separate
or prohibition movement
has ever achieved. For while the !
of the party TO general all
ti-salOOn policy would at once put an
End to all alliance with that element.
t would at the same time give an un-
stimulus to restriction
throughout the country, and by mod
Grating the zeal of the extremists ren-
Ter the attainment of practical results
more probable.
In effect the new mOvementmay be re-
yarded as a proposal to give the temper
'nce element of the country the largest
opportunities it has yet had. tits also a
'lain recognition Of the fact that the
epubiican party as such can no longer
ffOrd to leave out Of account it's own
emperance element, which is, in fact,
hat of the nation. The leaders and
rgans Of prohibition, of course, vio- {
emily oppose and profess to distrust :
ne movement, seeing that if it sue
eeds it will deprive them of their pres
Mt conspicuOusness. But there is
learly no subtlety in the anti-saloon {

proposition. What it means, and all 1t
means, is most clearly set forth by Mr..
Griffin. It is an endeavor to make the
republican party the party Of temper
ance, OF good morals, Of clean politics,
Of the higher civilization, in larger
and truer sense than it has yet been.
1t is for the prohibitionists largely to
determine whether the movement shall
succeed at present, but if republicans
approve Of 1t there is nothing to pre-
vent them from undertaking the enter
prise proposed to them hereafter, and
carrying it out. It requires concessions
on both sides. It il obviously middle
course, and perhaps the safer for being
so. 1t deals with question the COM
plications of which moreover are 80
grave and pressing that the republican
party cannot much longer avoid deal
Ing with it frankly and resolutely.

If Master Workman Powderly would
go upon the platform he would be a
success as a temperance lecturer. Here
are some of his recent utterances:
I have stood at the foot of the gall
lows and have seen the drop fall from
beneath the feet of men who were my
equals in all things but one-they
drank to get drunk, and while drunk
they committed murder. have seen
murders. thefts, burglaries-all crimes
by men who were drunk,
and have yet to see a man who drinks
perform an act that other men could
applaud, unless he commits suicide.

Colony Free Press: A fact worthy
of note in regard to the owners and
projectors of the st. Louis & EmpOria
railroad is that every one of them came
to Kansas very poor men. Martindale
squatted on a claim in WoOdson coun-
ty in '57, living in little 10x12 snanty
and now is supposed to be the richest
man in Kansas south of the Kow river;
Plumb landed in Kansas with $500,
and is now worth two or three millions;
Cross and Hood, of Emporia, both came
to Kansas very poor-the former with
perhaps $500 and the latter SO poor tnat
he first went to work as a cowboy on
the plains. Each of them is now worth
from 100000 to 100000. Robert Kim
caid landed in Kansas in '5S with SIS,
and now pays s., 400 every year in taxes
and Col. Carpenter came to the State a
very poor boy and is now worth some
$40, 900 or $4,000. The st. L. & E., is

A FARMER CONGRESSMAN.


Looking over our State exchanges
we notice a little resslessness In some
quarters to get into the place now oc-
cupied by Mr.. Funston, of Allen coun-
ty. This il not political paper in the
sense of taking sides with any of the
parties and helping 1t fight its battles.
The Kansas Farmer is in favor of good
government, and it favors the election
of farmer congressman occasionally.
If the talk in Funston's district looked
toward setting up some other equally
capable farmer against Mr.. Funston,
we would feel much less interest in the
matter than we do. Bnt it is not that
way. So far as our information ex-
tends, the anxiety in relation to Mr..
Funston's successor is confined to q
few law offices. When Funston was
nominated the first time, there were
lawyers enough before the convention
as candidates to officer regiment of
militia. Every one of his opponents
was lawyer, but he led them in the
race and every one of them voted for
him ON election day. The other party
put up one of the most energetic and
capable lawyers in the district, Mr..
Riggs, of Lawrence.
The Kansas Farmer took interest in
the election. The farmers of his dis
trict sent Mr.. Funston to congress to
fill out the unexpired time of Dudley
c. Haskell. They elected him after.
wards for a full term which he is now
serving in an honorable way, very
creditable to him personally as well as
to his constituents. He has not be-
come pulled up. Heis the same plain,
sensible farmer that he was, but he has
learned great deal since he went to
Washington. He knows three times
as much now as he did the last time he
was in this office-mOre than two years
ago, and he knows ten times as much
about how to do the work which a
congressman has to do.
AS between Funston and the law
yers, we are for Funston, and we be-
lieve it will be wise to let them plod
along at the law and send Funston
back to congress. This is an agricul-
tural State, and the district is made up
largely of farmers. OF the seven Kan
sas congressman now on duty, four of
them are lawyers, one banker, one
preacher, one farmer. The great body
Of the people are farmers, yet only one
in seven of their congressman is of their
calling. Both oursenators are lawyers.
Unless the other party puts up a COM
petent farmer against Funston, there
ought not to be any opposition to him.
Let us have at least one farmer con-
gresham.
