POLITICAL DESPERATION.


Within the past fortnight the
Peoples movement in this county
has received a large number Of &C
cessions. The principal cause Of
this growth lies in the fact that the
ring canvassers and their bossed or
gan have failed utterly in meeting
the requirements Of reasonable
political canvass. As far as the ar.
guments of these agencies are con.
cerned, the fact is proved in a hun.
dred ways, and clinched, that Tiltor

for him is the result of the desire to

of them have offered to vote for John
Martin, Democratic candidate for
governor, on the condition that the

have been made will vote for Hanna.

Tilton says he is entitled to the ell
ection as representative because he
was here during the hard times and
stood by the settlers of the county.
Yes, he did stay with you. But you
paid him we'll for doing it. He has
drawn better than dollar a day
from the county treasury Of Trego
for every day he has been in the
county, besides as much more for
land notices. You never heard of
him cutting on prices Of final proof
notices during grass-hopper and hot
wind seasons, did you? While pa
pers in neighboring counties were
printing final proof notices forS 1.00
our brother was instructing the
homesteaders in the science of devel-
oping western Kansas and charging
them $500 for their notices. Mr.
Tilton has stood by Trego county,
but has been handsomely paid for
every lick Of work he ever did
Republican. Thus yelps the little
cur who came here at the invitation
of the ring outfit to run Tilton out
Of the county. This thing Of voting
for or against the Peoples Ticket is
at once matter Of business and
decency. If you, as voters, wish to
further the schemes Of that ring
outfit, the way to do so is before
you. If, on the other hand, you
wish to aid those who have stood by
this county, and at the same time
take what you know to be business
step, the way is equally plain. Til
ton, as Shepard intimates, was here
during the hard times. But Shep-
ard does not state the whole truth.
The truth is that for about five
years we did nearly all our own work
in the WORLD office, because there was
not in the business sufficient in
come to warrant our employing
skilled help much Of the time. tits
not true that we have drawn from
the county treasury upwards Of
dollar day for every day we have
been in Trego comfy. The county
printing has brought us an average
Of less than $40 a year, and for
several years our county scrip was
worth from only fifty to seventy-fve
cents on the dollar. But what bust
ness is it of Shepard's how much or
how little we have drawn from
Trego county? We were entitled
to all Of it by law, and he never as
sisted in its payment. As to the
publication of final proof notices,
Captain Hanna, as land register,
fixed the price. If any were printed
for 81 apiece, it was done by some
bastard newspaper fellow who was
intent on getting them in that way
when no other chance was open.
Shepard knows how this is himself. |
There are several reasons which |
would hold good in any court of
justice why we purpose not to ac-
cept Shepard as a witness as to
whether we have been handsomely |
paid for ever lick of work we ever
did. Why, in the name Of common
sense, don't Shepard, in his ardent
desire to protect the county, have
something to say in denunciation of
Ringster Conger's drawing three
hundred dollars year as part pay
ment for staying out Of the probate
judges Office just about all the time?

SKILLED CLERICAL LABOR.
The secretary Of the society, Stephen
M. Wright, a well, gentleman who
deyotes much OF his leisure time to the
duties Of the Office, said: "Our society
is q curious epitome OF the changes and
growth Of the metropolis. II was started
in 1885 by twenty-five mechanics. The
founders were simply Woodworking but
ambitious mechanics. who came together
TO better their condition and TO provide
for members who through old age, dis
ease, or accident might be reduced TO
penury. / do not think that in their
early years they looked forward TO
more than this. But as their Or
ganization grew and their wealth
increased they opened new chan
nels Of benevolence. The first OF these
was system for the education of young
men and women who are unable to at
tend other schools or to pay for their
tuition, thus practically inaugurating
the system of free public schools OF this
city. As the years brought about changes
in social condition the education given
was slowly changed to meet new wants
and more especially to meet the now
prevalent demand for skilled clerical
labor. 90 excellent is the instruction
given in this regard that every year We
are compelled to refuse applications for
admission for the mere lack OF accom-
modationS
THE WORK GOES on.
"The same progress has marked the
history OF the library, which now has "A
circulation of $50, 900 volumes per an

1.-The early members could not have
had much money, as their initiation fee
was but sixteen shillings sterling, about
81 at present values, and as some
time elapsed before this was all paid IN.
"The organization prospered from
the first and many of its members cot
rapidly ahead in life. as, for instance,
the first chairman became sheriff two
years after the organization, and to- day
the membership contains many OF the
leading citizens who started life as sturdy
mechanics and have risen to positions OF
trust and influence.
"Ibe society has had an uneyentful
career so far as trouble is concerned, but
one marked by continued activity and
success. While it expends nine tenths
Of It's income upon charitable and educa-
tIonal purposes it puts 10y one tenth to
increase its sphere Of usefulness IN the
future This surplus, small as 1t seems,

immediate future, but try TO keep
abreast Of the progress OF the age. New

ton, and these we will from time 10 time

mand."
