courage the Republican party in Kansas
to preach protection to them, and place
rabid free trader at the head OF their
university, but we are unable to see 1t.
If newspapers that have been preaching
protection for years are ready to wallow
in the dirt and yell themselves hOarse in
favor of such man, simply because he
has been chosen to high position by an
association of teachers. we do not be-
lieve the people can be so easily fooled
and befuddled.
And now, on the heels of all this,
comes the inspiring announcement that
Cliff. Baker is laying his plans for
third term as state printer-an Office in
which two terms yield a handsome
fortune. What particular claim he has
upon the party. that he must be given
third term, over the heads of so many
deserving men, we do not know. We
suppose he will try to go through as
belonging to our crowd" He was not
entitled to the Office, in the first place.
What have the Bakers done for the Re-

But notwithstanding, almost dur
ing the entire Republican ascend

government position, in which there was
little work and good pay. He was a
postmaster, commissioner to the Paris
exposition, and commissioner Of for
estry. He owned a newspaper, in which
he could threaten the party, in order to
secure favors. This has been his service.
And as a continued return for this great
service, son now aske third term in
the best Office in the state. The office
really belongs to the family, for the pro-
ceeds are divided as other income of the
firm.
When rebellion is talked of, it may be
well to look around and see whether
there is any real cause for dissatisfaction;
and if there is, to try to remedy it. That
will prevent a rebellion more than boots,
and jeers, and bluff.

The case of the United State against
Wilson for the attempted murder of a
man by the name of Bubser at Edmond, a
few days ago, came up before Commits

cupied some little time, but finally ended
in the discharge of Wilson. it being proven
that he shot Bubser in self-defense. 1t
seems that Wilson and Bubser got into a
fight over some misunderstanding between
them and that Bubser grabbed Wilson by
the throat and attempted to choke him,
when Wilson drew his revolver and shot
him through the groin.

Kansas City Times.
This is the closing paragraph of an
editorial in the Kansas City Times on
The Railroad Rate War"
This laundering paper having failed in
its onslaught upon the press and the
people of Kansas, Is now engaged In an
other war on all railroads that refuse to
discriminate in favor of Kansas City.
That paper is often stupid and always
selfish and mean.
The doctor thinks the railroads "can
be forever put under the control of Kan
sas City, by opening up traffic on the
Missouri river between st. Louis and
that mortgaged city.
That proposition is conveniently fitted
for place in the sexleSs brain of that
concern.
The still water navigation of the Hud-
son river can not compete with the rail-
roads along its banks. No water COM
munication on earth. where railroads are
run, can compete with the iron rail.
There has been much silly talk about
transportation on the Missouri river for
/ the past thirty years. Thirty years ago
all the freight and passenger traffic be-
tween st. Louis and the river towns was
by water, but in those days there were
no railroads.
/ Freight transportation on the Missouri
will never seriously interfere with the
railroads, and no engineer of this cen
/ fury Will claim that the Missouri can
/ ever be used 10 bring railroads to time.
/ 1t can't be done.-Leavenwort Times.

The situation in the mining districts
of Illinois and Pennsylvania is becoming
serious. From twelve to twenty thou
sand persons in each of these states are
charges upon the charity OF the COM
munlty for daily bread in consequence
of strikes, and IN Illinois, it seems, from
the published statement Of Congressman
Lawler, who has interested himself in
the matter to the extent of trying to adj
Just the difficulty between the mine op-
orators and striking operatives, the
latter are not altogether blamable for
the present status OF affairs, inasmuch
as reduction in the scale of pay, which
led to the strike, will not afford a sup
port for the operatives and their
dependents. However much the
policy of striking as means
of redress may be deprecated and con-
demned, when the situation is shown,
by disinterested parties who are COM
petent to judge, as in this case, public
sympathy will intuitively go to the
strikers. If the price of the products of
the mines was SO low as to allow no per
cent of profit to the owners and opera
tors, rather than see the present state of
affairs the public would willingly sub
NIT to an advance in the prices of such
products, but with the general tendancy
of freight charges, downward. with no
corresponding abatement in the current
market prices, the public will not be
slow to give moral support to the side
that is contending for existence.
