COL. ]. B. ANDERSON.


The fiftieth wedding anniversary
wife, of Manhattan, is to be
marked by the friends of the
honored and beloved couple by the es-
Enlistment of the Anderson Memo
rial Library" of Emporia College, an
institution in which Col. Anderson is
greatly interested. Col. Anderson has
filed many important positions in life
and during the war had charge for a
long time of the Louisville s. Nash
vile and other military railroads
which took men, hard bread and pow
der to the front. He was a pioneer
railroad man in Kansas, was one of the
commissioners who built the west wing
of the Kansas capitol, and has been an
especially generous benefactOr of the
Presbyterian Church in Kansas. In
this immediate vicinity are many now
middle-aged men and women who re-
member him as the founder of Ander-
sons Collegiate Institute, at New Al
bany, Indiana, an institution which has
sent its students all over the west. In
all the honors, charities and labors of
her husbands life, Mrs. Anderson has
been associated. 1t is now proposed to
honor them and preserve their memory
by establishing this library, and it is
| suggested that all their friends send a
book directed to the Anderson Me-
mortal Library" Emporia, Kansas. If
each and all their friends contribute,
the library will be one of the lagest in
the country.-Newton Republican.

ONE day last week one of our proml

ONE day last week one of our promi-
nent business men approached another
and inquired where he had certain lot
of job work done. He was informed
that he had patronized the home Off
ces. Why, says the p. b. m, you could
have saved money by having your work
done in Evansville, to which the gen.
tleman in favor of home industry re-
piled that he might have saved a few
cents, but when the Evansville papers
did as much hard work for the upbuild-
ing of Hopkinsville as the home papers
did, he might send his work there, but
not until then. Now, just such dis
position on the part of our business men
to work for the upbuilding of other
places is what will pull our city down,
and even if a business man felt inclined
to send his work away from home, we
don't think he ought to drum against
home trade. The same p. b. m. who
made the suggestion in favor of Evans
vile, depends upon the community for
patronage, and yet he works against
home trade.-Hopkinsvi Kentuck-

CONGRESSMAN EATON of Connecti-
cut is democrat but not a free trader.
In the course of a recent speech he told
this story:
There was a certain professor in my
county, a theorist of the first water, a
man who does not know any more
about the practical tariff than know
about the Hebrew that he is well ac-
quainted with. This professor came
up into a large manufacturing village
in my county to make a III .oreticHll
speech, such an one as my friend
(Hurd) from Ohio delights in. There
was farmer standing by post in the
lecture-room, and the professor
thought he might be good subject to
operate upon, so he said to him: my
friend, you are a farmerp'' ''Yesl"
You live herep'' "Yes!'' do you
know these manufacturers in this viii
lage are robbing yOu?' why, no, 1
do not know it! How can they rob
me? came here ten years ago with
$500; l bought farm, running in debt

to work raising truck for this village.
the savings bank, and do not owe any
man a dollar. How have they robbed
me?" The professor said: "Well, it
appears you have been Woodworking
man and have lived it through. But
you pay six cents yard duty for the
very cloth your shirt is made Of
well, professor" replied the farmer
You may think so, but you cannot
prove it unless by Esop's Fables, fol-
five cents yard was all gave for the

THE Topeka Capital commences a
lengthy editorial with the sentence:
"The democratic press is just now pro-
fuse in its abuse of Hon. A. W. Smith,
republican candidate for governor,
and continues on this strain for some
time. Such barefaced fabrications as
the above are enough to disgust even
Smith himself, who undoubtedly is a
good man, and possibly well deserving
election as governor. If the Capital is
really friend of Mr.. Smith it should
stop such stuff unless it wants to dis
gust every newspaper reader in the
state, for it is d well-known fact that
at least two most prominent demo-
cratic papers are as outspoken in his
favor as even the Capital itself. We
refer to the Kansas City Times and
the Leavenworth Standard. So
openly have these two papers espoused
his cause that, in conjunction with
the support of the Capital, it has be-
come a question of doubt whether
Smith is democratic or a republican
candidate for nomination.

editorial eulogy of the deceased Senator
Conkling did itself credit. 1t is a beauti-

mans character, and both the writer
and the paper may feel proud of the
article, the more so if, as we judge, it
was penned by Major Edwards, who
was as brave soldier as the confeder-
acy had in its service.
