Mr.. BARNuM seems to have fully re-
instated himself in the good graces Of
the Democratic National Committee.
But why should he ever have fallen
out of their good graces lie is a
thorough-going, inexorable Demo-
crat-tue to his convictions and
never afraid to express them; always
ready, moreover, to put stout
shoulder TO the wheel. AS a partisan
from Partisantown, he is always to be
relied on

BETWEEN FRIDAY or this week and
Thursday of next week one hundred
and ffty-four monuments will be
unveiled at Gettysburg. The magni-
tude and illustriousness of that de-
cisiye battlefield, unlike others Of
the late war that might be mentioned,
are constantly growing upon us.
These monuments represent regi-
ments, batteries and other organiza-
tions that on those sultry July days
spoke to the advancing hosts of Lee
like Canute to the sea, "Thus far and
no farther" 1t will be the grandest
event since the war--the approaching
reunion. Fifty thousand visitors are
expected. One thousand regulars
will be present. The gray will wave
with the blue. Heroes all.

grafton to the Pacific coast during
the coming summer"
The last clause may be true, and
there are but few better places for
eastern people to emigrate than to
certain parts of Western Oregon and
Washin gton. One of these places
however, is northwestern Kansas. 1t
is fact that considerable of our land
is under mortgage, but none of it is
at ruinous rates of interest; nor to
any greater extent than much of the
famed Willamette valley farms in
Oregon. A comparison of the mort
cages on farms in Kansas and older
states shows largely in favor of Kan
sas-th:t the extent of mortgage in
Kansas is much less than in others
Besides the farms in older states
have reached about their maximum
value, while the value of farm land in
Kansas is constantly and steadily on
the increase. Owing to this increase
in value their seldom appears such a
suit as mortgage foreclosure suit on
our court dockets. So far as fore
closures are concerned there is no
such suit on the docket of the Thorn
as county circuit court, and We VEN
ture the assertion that the same is
true of every county surrounding us.
There is no need of such suits here.
The value of our lands is increasing
so rapidly that the mortgagor can cas-
lily dispose of his property with large
profit to himself, or re-mortgage the
same land for greater amount One
thing is certain; there is no field 80
choice where the homeseeker can get
what he wants so cheaply rs in north
western Kansas, and the emigration
already setting in to this fine country
bids fair to be phenomenal in degree
during the year. TIE Pacific coast
may get fair share, but northwest
Kansas will have the choice emigra-

Thirty cases Of the government

during the next forty days. These
cases have been instituted by special
agent Thomas. While some of these
cases are the result of Gen, Thomas
investigation and started with desire
to protect the government from impo-
sition, by far the larger portion OF
them are inaugurated by meddlesome
neighbors and busy-bodies through
malice and jealousy One man was
before this Office this week. who has
entered over twenty complaints
against his neighbors for non-compll-
ance with the land laws. 1t is lament
able that perpetual mischief maker
like this is to force a settler to an ex-
pensive trial in order to protect his
homestead. He is put 10 no expense
in entering his complaint; on the CON
trary, the government pays him 81 90
per day fees as witness and allows
Lin efsprciins spApensos inss,ing an1t
coming, and $3.50 per day for board.
On the other hand the settler is fore
ed to bring a delegation of witnesses
And pay their expenses, attorney fees.
Ntc:, or lose his home. There have
already been many of these eases be
tdfe the WaKeeney land Office, and
but two have been sustained. We
speak Of this matter in a kindly spirit
and the best of feeling for the officials
at this Office, but it strikes us that the
red tape of the government is quite in
a snarl, if there is no way to prevent
this thing under present laws.-Trego

If we understand our relation as
editor to the general public, and We
think we do, it in short is this: that
We are first to report the news, gener-
al and local, so far as our means per-
NIT, and secondly, we are to advocate
whatever in our opinion is for the
best interests of the majority in our
constituency Sometimes, it may be
we are mistaken, for all, even editors,
are Liable 70 err. Sometimes GU. pa
irons Nay have different views from
us as to what is for the best interest
of the general public. If, however.
We present 10 die best OF eur ability
to the reading public what we honest
IL conceive to be beneficial to the
community AS a whole. we fulfill our
duty as editor, and viii stand by il,
although the heavens fall 1t is i'm
possible at all times to please every
body, and SO we do not undertake it.
Now in this matter of giving bonds to
get the Rock isls d Railway into our
county. some few, very few, of our
pare ms, have taken offense at the DO
sition we assumed. To such we wish
to say that in our honest opinion the
good which that road would and will
bring to the county as q whole, more
than by thousandfold counterbal-
anced tha evil Of the debt to be paid
for the road and, therefore, we felt
justified in advocating the voting the
bonds, and We feel satisfied now that
the time will come when everyone in
the county will see the matter in the
same light The road would not
come without aid, and the aid asked
was small in comparison with the
benefits to Be derived.

The Memphis appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1886-1890, 1888-10-23
A SECTIONAL BILL.

The Republicans of the Senate, by
allowing Congress 10 be adjourned with
out taking vote on Their tariff bill, have
proven that il was merely gotten up for
effect and to appease the demand OF West
crn farmers for some expression OF tariff
view TO Offset the effect the Mills bill is
everywhere having with the working
classes. But this bill, rs II stands, is a
complete reflection Of the extreme protec-
ton and monopolistic views that prevail
among the Republican Senators, and
which makes Of them mere mouth
pieces OF the Trusts and Combines,
for which Blaine speaks as a hearty
defender II increases the duties on all
the necessaries Of life, except those on SUI
gar, which were materially reduced in
order TO break down and utterly ruin the
leading industry OF Louisiana, because IL
is n Southern and was one OF the "rebel''
States. But they do not take the duty
OIL salt, because that would interfere with
a leading industry in two Northern States
New York and Michigan. But they
raised the taxes on woollen goods, which
are now over 60 per cent, according to the
robbcr war tariff, and which are consumed
by every man, woman and child in tho
country. The Senate bill, it will thus be
seen, is a partisan and sectional bill. 1t
is bill full Of the venom and hate the
Republicans have for the South, and full
OF the spirit Of eager yielding to the mo-
nopolisls that has cursed the country with
class divisions, and induced the extremes
Of poverty and wealth that have 80 de-
grading an effect in cities.
