THE Star Vindicator is giving away
tho Kansas City Journal to sub
scribers. Remember this when you
want to get free reading.
The Kyle Star keeps the above in
large iull-faced type standing in its
columns, while Brother Baker, Of the
Columbus Citizen, shows that the Kan
sas CityJournal is II Republican paper,
one OF the baser sort, and it ia thus
sought to get it in circulation ut the
tho South by offering to give it away
in connection with local Democratic
papers,the Republican campaign com

have expected to find professed
simon pure Democratic paper like the
Star lending itself to the enemy after
the above fashion.

By the proceedings of the county

ing altogether about one.half of the
delegate vote of the county, with
drew from the convention on the
question OF recommending Mr.. Rep
resentative McGeheo to the district
convention for denomination. We
are not sure that we understand the
precise ground Of the withdrawal,
but it appears to have boon as we
have stated. We think it is due
from the seceders to make clear
statement OF the causes which led to
their action to the voters of the
county. They are entitled to fair
hearing, and the public would like to
hear what they have to say.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
(Frcm Our Regular Correspondent
W,orytNaroN Tulu e 1899

(Frcm Our Regular Correspondent
WAsHINaToN. July 6, 1888.
Postmaster General Dickinson has
written letter to chairman Blount
of the.houso committee on postoffices,
in which he vigorously opposes the
senate amendment to the postoffice
appropriation bill known as the "sub.
sidy amendment" which appropriates
SS09,0O0 to provide more efficient
mail service between the United
States and South America. The
postmaster general says this legisla-
ton is neither demanded nor re-
CURED, and that the resources and
the power of the postoffice depart
ment have proved adequate to afford
citizens of the United States mail
service equal to, and most cases su-
perior to that of all nations in the
world. Since the postmaster gen
erals letter was written, the house of
representatives has refused to concur
in this amendment.
The postmaster general has also
written another letter-one to the
president-in which he makes a
formal protest against the proposed
extension of the classified civil service
to include the railway postal service.
One day was wasted in the house
this week by filibustering against the
Pacific railroads bill, and the Fourth
was a holiday, so that one-third of
the week was lost. Still considerable
progress wus made with the Mills
bill, and it is now predicted by the
members of the ways and means
committee that the tariff bill will be
passed by the house inside of thirty
days.
Senator Vest, and Representatives
Mills, Hooker, McCreary, Shively
Maish and Cummings went to New
York on the Fourth to take part in
Tammany's grand jubilee and ratif-
cation meeting.
The president spent the Fourth at
his desk working at the bills which
have been sent him by congress for
approval.
The senate added S912,000 to the
river and harbor bill in the shape of
amendments. and then passed it. The
total amount appropriated by it is
S22,4747s3.T7
The letter carriers law cannot be
put into effect until congress passes
an appropriation TO pay the extra
men it will make necessary.
About FIVE hundred employees of
the navy department spent the
Fourth Of July. with their families, at
Grhsslands, the country residence,
near this city, of Secretary Whitney.
They were furnished with transporta-
ton. and lunch also, by their host,
whose muni6cent hospitality has
passed into a proverb here.

ment of the constable who conducted
the evictions is given, together with
the story of an eye witness. Poorly.
clad children with their parents were
thrown out on the roadside while snow
and sleet were falling and the ground
was covered with ice. 1t now be.

THE KANSAS STATE UNIvERsITY.

K. e. journal. %
The people of Kansas have reason to
be proud of their State University.
The high and steadily advancing
standard of scholarship which is main
tanned together with the steady in
crease in attendance speaks volumes
for the growth of higher education in
the State.
The West labcrs at quite adisadvan.
tage as compared with the older set
tied states Of the east in the question
of university education, for the reason
that a certain venerable antiquity has
been looked upon as necessary to ee-
tablish for university, the reputation
which should make scholarship from
it to be eagerly sought for by students
from all parts of the country. No mat.
ter how competent the faculty of a
Western university may be, and how
perfect all the appliances for teaching
and acquiring all the details of higher
education, yet an unreasoning preju-
dice has ever been ready to discrimi-
nate against it in favor of some East
ern institution which can point to an
ancient cobwebbed antiquity.
One of the encouraging signs of the
times is the gradual disappearance of
this prejudice. People are finding out
that the benefits which come from a
college course consist not in the name
of the institution which may chance to
grace the graduates sheepskin, but in
the amount of valuable information di-
gested. The loyalty of some of the
Western States, notably Kansas, to
their educational institutions is rapid
~ building up for them most enyiable
regulations, the results of which are
seen in the steadily advancing standrds
Of scholarship.
The catalogue of the Kansas State
University. which has just been re-
ceiyed, shows that the number of stu
dents enrolled during the past yesr was
