ANOTHER ENTERPKIsE For wIcHITA.

ANOTHER ENTERPRISE FOR WICHITA.
James Taylor and Ben Hermes yesterday
completed arrangements with A. j.
Reams, of Ell Dorado, for the manufacture
of check rein holder, recently patented
by Mr. Taylor. The papers were signed
Yesterday, the terms Of which requires Mr..
Reams to establish a factory in Wichita
for the manufacture of all sorts of harness
fixtures OF course particular attention
will be given to the manufacture OF the
check rein holder patented by Mr.. Taylor.
This check rein holder is pronounced by
harness makers and liverymen the most
complete check holder ever invented. 1t
is automatic in its workings and there
is no possible chance for the
rein to ever drop out. The horse may be
refined tightly or very loosely and the rein
is held in place all the same. Should this
little device prove as successful as now ap-
pears it will be sold in every village and
city in the United States. Very few peo-
pie would ever buy set Of harness with
the old style of check holders on them
when this new one can be obtained. Some
parties, who have examined this new
check-rein holder, predicts that If this
factory to be started by Mr.. Reams is guar
apteed the sole right to manufacture 1t the
establishment in very few years will be
the largest mandatory of the sort IN the
cOuOtry

THINK DIFFERENT.

The opinion OF the attorney general on
the school board question given to the
public in yesterdays issue seems to have
created quite a stir among some of the
attorneys. They seem to think the de-
cision does not conform to good law and
in fact is not exactly correct None, how
ever, were heard say they had investi-
gated the question but give an opinion on
general principals and according to the
old common law Of England the school
board members of cities Of the first class
in Kansas, America, are handled ID
way very different from the way an
nounced by the attorney general of the
state. One of them seemed to think 1t
impossible for any Of the session laws OF
Kansas to be in violation of what he
deemed good law.
Concerning the matter Mr.. Pallett said
he had no burning desire to remain on the
board. If accordingsto law he is not d
member he won't cry as he can't sea a
great amount of money reward for labor
or honor corallary.

DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM,

First-The Democracy of Ohio, ir
convention assembled. approve the
declaration Of principles made by the
national Democracy in St. Louis in
1888, and especially that part of it de-
manding reduction of tariff taxes. We
will continue the battle for tariff re-
form until the cause of the people Is
triumphant.
Secoud-We regard trusts, in what.
ever form organized, as the legitimate
result of our present tariff sys'em, and
we demand the repeal of all tai itf taxes
that enable them to extort from the
people exorbitalt prices for the pro-
ducts they control.
1hird-We again acknowledge the
great debt of gratitude the nation owes
to the heroes of the late war, and we
declare in favor oe just, liberal and
equitable pension laws.
Fourth-We denounce the Republi-
can administration fol its repeated VI
olation of lis pledges in behalf OF civil
service reform.
Fifth-We denounce the present
State administration as the most partl-
san, demoralizing and extravagant in
our history. We invite the careful in
vestigation OF all citizens into our
financial affairs as shown by the oflici-
al records.
Sixth We protest against the re
peated enactment of laws vestlng the
appointing power in the Governor. en-.
abIing him to control the local boards
of our leading cities. While depriving
them of self government, it constructs
a vast political machine that is at ELL
times dangerous, and in the hands of a
partisan chief executive has become a
positive menace to the people of the
State.
Seventh-The nomination of the
Governor of Ohio for third term. lii
violation Ct all precedent. by the noto-
rious and disgraceful use OF patronage
at his command, is an outrage against
the people and sheuld be rebuked at
the polls.
Eighth-We heartily favor home rule
in Ireland; We demand it also for Ohio.
While favoring all laws that sacredly
protect the ballot box and the honest
voter, we demand the enactment OF
laws that illienable Our cities to choose
heir own servants and control their
own affairs.

The Taxation Amendment.

Judge Burke, of Cleveland, was
cornered by q reporter of the Plain
Dealer, and interviewed on the
question Of adopting tho proposed
change in the Constitution on tax
at,on. Judge Burke said:
Il have examined The amend
ment to section 2. article 12. The
material part of the section now
reads as follows: Laws shall be
passed taxing by uniform rule all
moneys. credits, investments IN
bonds, stocks, JOINT stock companies
ar otherwise, and also all real or
personal property, according to It's
true value IN money. The rule es
tablished by this section is the rule
Of uniformity. Revenue must be
raised for public purposes under
this provision of the Constitution
by q uniform rule uron all property
(save that which Is exempted) ac-
cording to it's true value IN money.
The amendment proposed reads as
follows: The General Assembly
shall provide for the raising of rev.
enue for the support of the State
and local government, but taxes
shall be uniform on the same class
of Subjects Under the rule pro-
posed real estate might be taxed
twice, five times or ten times as
much as personal property; manu-
f.cIuring property might be taxed
twice. tfrc times or ten times es
much as farming property: busl-
ness property might be taxed twice,
five times or ten times as much as
residence property. The farm pro
perry, including horses. cattle aud
other live stock, might be taxed
much higher than the property OF
corporations, and the property of
corporations might be taxed to any
extent the Legislature saw fit, and
thus the different classes of proper
tv of the State. under the amends |
ment proposed, might be taxed b.y
as .nany different rates IS the Ca
price of the Legislature might sug
gest. can only say in my judg-
ment that the amendment proposed
is abominable, and the people OF
Ohio will be much greater fools than
/ take them to be If they vote for
its adoption"

The Soldiers Friend.
Cincinnati Enquirer Of the llth.

Cincinnati Enquirer Of the llth.
1t is rarely that Democratic
candidate for Governor receives
such warm tribute from a Repub
lican statesman as James +.
Campbell received at Xenia.
General Charles Ii. Grosvenor,
speaking from the same platform
with Governor Foraker, on the
occasion of the grand opening of
The Republican campaign, was
most eloquent in praise of Mr..
Campbell's Congressional record
as friend OF the soldier.
"Upon any question in which
the soldier was Interested" said
the General, "he voted as l voted;
and l claim TO have pretty good
standing as a friend of the soldiers
of the war;"
This coming from party sup
porter might not mean so much.
But coming from a distinguished
Republican orator it means
everything.

Foraker's attempt to break the
record and secure his election for
a third successive term will be a
failure.
The country people fOhio are
opposed to third termism and
particularly are they opposed to
rejecting Foraker, who secured
the increase of the Governors
salary to $4,000 a year.
Tod, Brough, Allen. and every
other Governor Ohio has had,
save Foraker, served the state
willingly for $4,000 a year. If
Foraker is reelected he will move
again on the matter of an eX
travagant executive mansion al
Columbus.
Therefore the people want no
third termism.

Some Questions to Answer.

In his Columbus speech, Mr..
Campbell asked Mr.. Foraker very
pertinent question. AT Xenia Mr..
Foraker made speech almost as
long as the New Testament, but
found no time for an answer. lie
"couptered' with another question,
very silly and very impcrtnent.
Mr.. Campbell does not believe in
campaigning IN this style. At Ba
tavia he sqnelched the Foraker
counter query just as an indignant
man should step upon equirming'
wriggling centipede; and then re-
peatcd, in such fashion that it will
he heard all over the land, the ori
gIual inquiry which he made at
Columbus. Let US See what that
inquiry was:
when you 60 down to Xenia
next Saturday you explain to the
people there why You prostituted
tho Soldiers Orphans Home for
political purposes when l last ran
for Congress why you removed
Major Fl. z. Lloyd, a Republican, a
Christian, n soldier. a gentleman,
and all Ex Comma n.ler of the q. A.
4. in Ohlo-why did you remove
him from his guardianship over
those orphan children, unless you
did it from partisan aud an I'M
proper motive
1t is not the purpose, here to an
ticipate any of the further questions
which Mr.. Campbell has declared
that he stands ready to ask !; but
inasmuch as public opinion will in
flexibly force Gov. Foraker to meet
this solemn issue, it seems only
charitable to invite his attention to
a few other conundrums which alike
lnexoriably demand solution:
Did you not again, Governor,
prostitute for political purposes the
Soldiers and Orphans Home at
Xenia when you drove Gen. Gros
venor off its Board because he hap
pened to be more of a Sherman
man than he was Foraker man
Did you not prostitute for pollti-
cal purposes the Toledo Asylum for
the Insane when you drove such an
upright and noble Republican as
Judge Doyle off of its Board be-
cause he wasa better friend of Chas.
Fosters political all ubitions than be
was of yours?
Did you not prostitute to politI-
cal purposes the Athens Asylum
for the Insane when you forced the
resignation from it's Board Of such
universally respected Republican
as II. NJ. Horton, because he would
not consent to driving out faithful
and long tried officers of that in
st,tution in order to make place for
your personal adherents !?
Suppose you answer all these
four questions at once, Governor,
and then the room will be clear for
some others. Gin. Enquirer.

THAT JOINT DEBATE.
Give Us Some Pointers,


For several weeks past, since the
Republican Senatorial Convention,
the Republican Gazette of our town
has been clamoring for an accept :
ance from Mr.. Lowry ola challenge
given by MIR. Townsend for joint
debate with Mr.. Lowry.
Mr., Townsend. in his acceptance
speech, made no challenge. Hc in
vited himself to 60 through the
district with Mr.. Lowry, knowing
that he would be in good company,
and feeling instinctively that vel
como would be accorded him wher-
ever Lowry halted. The Major
was simply, rather We may say,
wisely, banking on Lowry's popu-
Iarity.
We are strongly ii favor of this
joint discussion and challenge the
editor of the Gazette to meet U.S.
Col. Pursell and Commodore Green
both sent substitutes to tho war.
It is now time for them both to
come into the fighting arena Of joint
discussion.
Among the points 10 he discussed
are the following:
BURGESS!
Good times under Harrison.
Why wheat is only 70 cents per
bushel, when under the Cleveland
administration it brought 81 90.
The Warren county treasury de-
falcation.
The deficit in the State Treasury.
The skin cane affair in the peni-
Tertiary.
The failure of Bill Kennedy to
getia post-cffice.
The placing of the advertisements
for the constitutional amendments,
The removal of Bob Hamblin.
Manager Bowlby's selection OF
the COUNT y postmasters.
Lafe Eggleston's management Of
o Senatorial convention.
Grosvenor's love for Foraker.
Bob Kittsmiller's agency for the
Enquirer.
Gen. WoIf's fight on tho G. A. r.
The removal of Gen. Grosvenor
from a Dictatorship in the Xenla
Soldiers Orphans Home.
Dave MilIer's school house we'll.
The appointment of Col. Pursell
to the Logan post-office.
Tho kick of Eli West against
Foraker.
The truth or falsity of the charge
of Gov. Foraker against Col. Rem
pei, Director of the penitentlary,
"that be stole right and lett, until
kicked OUT" &c.
The bolt of Major Townsend
agalnsr the decree of his party eau
Gus.
Major Townsend's advocacy of a
measure that takes from the local
appraisers the right to fix values on
land. and place the power of taxa
tion in the hands of Legislature,
possibly controlled by railroads and
corporations.
We have a numb Der Of other points
10 pitch into the joint discussion,
SO ardentIy sought for.
When Major Townsend comes to
Hooking he will be most courteous
ly treated by Senator Lowry and
given the hospitality of our good
citizens; but when Pursell and
Green begin the Knight of Ivanho
tournament with lead pencils, the
fur will then fly.
Let the joint discussion come, and
come mick
