IT WON'T FOOL ANYBODY.

clearwater sum-
There is an attempt being made to
create the impression throughout the
country that the rural districts will try
and down Brown for sheriff and that
there is a deliberate scheme of that kind
on foot. All such talk is purely and
maliciously false and is only calculated
to arouse antagonism between the
country and Wichita. 1t Is expected
that the Democrats will vote for Cone,
but there should not be a single Repub-
lican vote cast for him, and no Republi-
can should for minute think of such a
thing. The cry is all bosh and only a
cheap clap-trap gotten up by Cone sup
porters Ito work" on weakened Re-
publicans who are silly enough to listen
to it.
No boys, we all want TO stand firm for
for the straight ticket. 1t is the best
thing for the county and the best for the
party. Don't let Democrats play any
tricks on you. 4 county of 1900 Re
publican majority can't afford to have
one Of the best offices in the hands of a
Democrat Thode Brown is honest,
capable and deserving and is entitled TO
the undivided support Of every true Re-
publican.

WONDERS OF THE WORLDS FAIR.

Propositions and suggestions are pour
ing in thick as to what America will do
with her exposition of 1892. 1t is de-
manded upon all hands that it must be
the greatest show that the world ever
saw, and that the Eiffel tower must be
surpassed. Already the papers are filled
with suggestions, and many of them are
worthy of consideration.
a New York man proposes tower en-
tirely different from that at Paris, His
idea is that it should be gigantic struc-
ture forty-two stories high, representing
the forty-two states of the union. Each
story should be, as it were, the especial
property of the state which it was de-
signed to commemorate. In it would be
grouped specimens of the great indus
tries native to the state, and outside it
would consist of stone or wood, as the
case might be, hewn or quarried In the
state. In other words it would, besides
being mammoth pile. be the greatest
object lesson on the natural and indus
trial history of the country that could
possibly be given.
There are many other schemes set
forth in detail, which we can only brief
" allude to. They are tremendous In
conception. Here are some Of them pro-
posed: An immense cluster of electric
lights held one or two miles high by cap
tive balloons. A colossal aquarium.
Roof over with glass the upper end of
Central park. An iron building like a
globe with an eagle on top, the whole to
be higher than the Eiffel tower. A
great planetarium showing the celestial
bodies in motion-build the main build
ing like statue of Columbus, colored
glass to represen flesh. A tower after
the model of the biblical Babel. A So
called Independence Tower" 1900 to
1900 feet high. Reproduce the OLYMPIC
an games in an open-air gymnasium or
arena. Exhibit all naval matters in a
monster iron ship. Out-Eiffel in two
towers connected by suspension bridge.
Provide great aquarium with electric
lights so as to show whales and other
big fish that shall be got. Build another
Egyptian pyramid. Build huge shell.

Thode B rown,
THE TRUST IS OFF.

There has been considerable talk of a
gigantic railway trust lately, but nothing
definite on this subject can be known I'M
til after the result of Jay Gould's confer
ence with Col. Marsh Murdoch is made
public.-Emporia Republican.
The trust scheme is off. The trouble
was lot of old bankrupt streaks of rust,
half of them in the hands of receivers,
together with some others having issued
hundred year bonds to stave off foreclos-
ures, wanted to come in on the same
terms with our splendidly equipped, all
steel rail, unincumbered property, and
after very few minutes conference we
mutually rejected the whole plan as be-
ing utterly unfair. In short, we are not
on the hunt of old sheep-we want
lambs. This explanation been submit
ted to the two principals named and re-
ceives their unqualified assent.

FAITHFUL THODE BROWN.

From the Wichita Arrow.
Theodore Brown is better qualified for
sheriff than any eligible man in Sedg-
wick county. AS under sheriff for the
now famous and much-loved William
Hays, Thode Brown has acquired a
knowledge of the vast and eXacting
duties of the sheriffality, and when we
consider his training, on a mere salary,
his integrity, his cool discretion and
manly bravery; in brief. when we weigh
his titness-which is now the aim of the
nation in securing public servants-his
election is assured in the realms of rea-
son and common sense. When the
United States government wants an Of
ficer, it asks the candidate ''have you by
studious application learned what will
be required of you:" and it never rejects
a man because he qualified himself by
days and nights of study and toll. Faith
full, vigilant Thode has earned the posi-
ton and he will fill 1t.

ANOTHER MAIN LINE FROM WICHITA
TO THE GULF.

President Cable, of the Rock Island,
has been making tour of inspection of
that corporations Kansas lines and down
into the territory. 1t is generally be-
lieved that the necessary arrangements
and negotiations have been completed
for the extension of the Wichita and
Indian territory line to the gulf. A sur
vey has already been made from King
fisher, l. r., to Wichita Falls, Tex.
From that point the route viii be to
Bowie and thence to Fort Worth. A
traffic allowance is said to have been
made with the San Antonio & Arkansas
Pass for an outlet to the coast. The sur
veying corps will extend its operations
between Fort Worth and San Antonio,
and the result will be submitted to Pres
ident Cable.

HONEST ELECTIONS OR CIVIL WAR

Hon. John Sherman, of Ohio. in a
speech the other day, electrified his
hearers by the following earnest words:
Have you ever thought of the inevita-
bic result of frauds at elections: The
minor matter of fights and bloodshed
that occur at the moment is the less i'm
portant consequence. The real danger
is that fraud at elections viii undermine
our Republican institutions. As sure as
fate, if practiced in the future as in the
past, it will end in civil war. do not
threaten this, because / do not anticipate
it, for believe the people will correct
the dangerous tendency of the times long
before it comes to the last resort. an ap-
peal 10 force. l would rather be ruled
by the meanest tyrant that ever cursed
mankind than be habitually cheated by
the criminal classes out Of my right 10
vote. And when such fraud extends to
state and national elections, as it did in
1865 and in 1915, it threatens to subvert
Republican government, and justifies
the most extreme measures of resistance
and such was getting TO be the temper Of
the people of Ohio after the frauds of
1885 at Cincinnati and Columbus.

PRETTY THIN FOR BRASS.

We learn from the Chicago Tribune that
''R. NJ. Easley, of the Hutchinson News, at
Hutchinson, Kan. registered at headouar-
tiers ana said his state was unanimous for
Chicago, and the congressional delegation
fully in accord with its citizens How is
this, Colonel Murdoch, how is this? How
about st. Louis? And how about Colonel
Murdoch? Unanimous for Chicago in
deed! Has the editor of the Hutchison
News never heard Of Wichita?-kansas
City Times.
We have yet to learn that Mr.. Easley
has been authorized TO speak for the
congressional delegation, much less for
the state of Kansas. Taking the relative
importance of Wichita and Hutchin-
son as ratio for the balance Of the
state on that question, and Chicago's
unanimous show would be found like
Hutchinson's blow, exceedingly dia-
phonous.

T. F. Brown. the Republican candi-
date for sheriff, was up from the capital
Tuesday looking after his political inter-
ests. And let us say right here that last
week when mentioning the candidates
upon the Republican ticket Mr.. Browns
name was left out of our list, whether
the fault was ours or typographical err

unintentional, for we wish it distinctly

he will be elected by a greater majority
than any man on the ticket,

We hope that Kansas City, in exhibit

in that connection TO observe
that the state which did it all IS
building a greater wonder upon her own

name of which wonder is Wichita. We
are not distrustful of the willingness of

tribute, but knowing how in the hurry

mention it, of course.
