FUEL COMPRESSOR.

SunAowers are used in Wyoming Teri
tory for fuel. The stalks, when dry,
make hot fire, and the seed heads with
the seed in are said to burn better than
hard coal An acre of sunfowers Will
furnish fuel for one stove year.
This is not the time of the year to
plant sunflower seeds, but we may
have readers who can gather some
Of this years crop Of weeds. Why,
in the name Of common sense, IS it
that enough inventive genius has
not been developed in this locality
to make a machine for the COM
preston Of weeds, straw and other
decaying substances into solid forms
for fuel? We have urged this
matter frequently. Nothing else
is needed worse. The machine can
be invented, and the business of
COMPRISING these substances would
pay in Wa-Keeney.

PROHIBITION COMMENT.

To the Editor of the WESTERN KANSAS WORLD:
In last weeks issue of the Trego
County Republican, in the editors re-
marks at the end of Mr.. Carson's an
nouncement, we noticed words about as
follows:
'1n no Northern state was the vote of
the Prohibition party as large as at some
previous election;" and ''every one that
votes for the third party damages the
cause of temperance" etc.
Such statements are misleading, and
about the best way to answer such is to
produce the figures and facts, and let the
people Judge for themselves. The follow
ing table will show wherein there has
been a material retreat or advance in the
third party at the last national election.
Facts and figures, when correct, make
argument. Slurs and sarcastic cuts are
very poor argument:

Observation-Disclosures

Cesar Alexander EhakeweIl, . colored
citizen Of Bridgeville, owned no turkeys, and
his richer white neighbors had put theirs in
special security as Thanksgiving Day drew
near. Mrs. Shakewen kept nagging Cesar
about turkey until he determined to have
one before another sun set, at any cost. He
sat down before the fire in the twilight to
study out some plan Of action on the import
ant question.
It came to him quite readily, it appears, for

slip quietly away with him Once at home
Caesar Alexander put him in barrel and
laid heavy sticks of wood on the open top.
Then he called to his wife to come and sec

heart He was a superior creature, to be
sure; she would never doubt it again.

Ever since the Prohibition party has had
an existence, the remark has been current
that "a vote for the Prohibition party in
jured the GAUGE of temperance" Indeed,
four years ago it was said that the cause
Of temperance was set back twenty years,
and attributed to the Prohibiionists of
New York and Indiana. Yet, never in
the history Of our country has there been
as much legislation on the temperance
question in the same length of time as
during the past four years. And the leg
islation has occurred chiefly where the
Prohibition party was at work. Georgia
has had it's prohibition. It was then de-
feated, and now that state has local op-
ton; Illinois, its local option; Iowa, its
Sioux City, Des Moines, &c, and G. & N.
W. r r cases; Indiana, its submission
defeat and constitutional amendment vote
defeated; Kansas, its Murray law; Ken
lucky tried to get submission and local
option; Maine voted on constitutional
Prohibition as opposed to statutory Pro
hibition, and gave Blaine chance to put
himself on record on the temperance
question; Michigan got defeated in sub
mission, but got local option instead, and
it was afterward declared unconstitution-
al; Minnesota had local option up, but
got high license; Missouri got local OBJ
ton, and came near getting constitutional
prohibition; in Nebraska the Prohibi-
tionists were promised submission II they
would help elect Republican legislature,
and on the last day Of the session it was
decided that the people did not know
enough to vote inteligently on that
question; New York has had the temper
