OBITUARY.

Died, On Sunday August 25th of ty-
phoid fever, at her home near La
Harpe, Miss Alma Hunt in the 10Th
year of her age.
Alma was bright, intelligent girl,
an obedient, dutiful daughter, kind,
affectionate, sister and universally be-
loved. She was a patient sufferer
through her long illness of seven
weeks and although wishing to recov-
er she was not afraid to die.
A large concourse of friends and
.neighbors followed the remains to
their last resting place, the lola ceme-
terry, and beautiful floral offerings at
tested their love for her.
Funeral services were conducted by
Rev. Blalock in the Christian church.
To the bereaved relatives we extend
our sympathy. A FRIEND.

WORD TO THE "LEFT.n

Before the REGISTER again makes
its appearance the Republican primar.
les and convention will have been held
and the nominations will have teen
made. AS there are 16 candidates for
four of the places to be filled and as
there Is only room in each of the places
for one person, the chances seem to be
that about II persons will be set to one
side. They may be bruised by the
process, some of them whose cuticles
are not used to rough treatment, and
their first impulse may be to cry out
and to go around showing people their
bruises and telling how sore they are.
They may be tempted, we say, to do
this, but if they will take advice which
is the result of some small experience
and Of pretty large observation they
will not yield to the temptation.
Nobody likes to look at sores and how
ever much people may pity the victim
they never fall in love with him. Ii
will be remembered that Job did not
become any more popular among his
neighbors and friends by reason of his
celebrated affliction. And when these
sores are political instead of physical
and are located in the region of the
head, so far from sympathizing with
the sufferer the people are inclined to
rail at him and revile him. Politics is a
good deal like football, rough and
tumble game, in which it Is expected
that the players will sometimes get
hurt. And in the one game as in the
other the fellow who stands up and
takes his punishment like man is the
enc who carries the sympathies of the
crowd. Nobody likes a man who
whines. If You didn't want to get
hurt you ought to have kept out of the
game.
There is another reason foo, why you
Oughtn't 10 show your sores: They
heal quicker if they are not exposed so
often to the light and air. You will
even find it better not to look at them
too often yourself. Abraham Lincoln,
you remember, said once that he be-
lieved in short statutes of limitations
In politics. That was only another
way of saying that it is good scheme
TO cover up your political wounds and
forget about them as soon as possible
80 that the fellow who inflicted them
may not be reminded, by the sight of
them to give YOU another.dig.
SO when you are lifted up and set
on one side next Tuesday don't kick,
dpn7t whine, don't lift DIP your
The Iola register. [volume] (Iola, Allen County, Kansas) 1875-1902, 1889-09-06

voice and howl on the streets.
That will only add to the exultation OF
your enemies who will know how bad
ly hurt you are while if you keep still
they will never know anything about
it and will thus be robbed of half their
victory. 1t will hurt, of course. You
will be somewhat disfigured and may
never be SO pretty again as you are
now. But you will know more. You
will know that politics is mighty on
sartain. You will know that not every
man who smokes your cigars and says,
81 hope you'll make it," votes for you.
You will know that political gratitude
is lively expectation of fayors about
to be received and not an appreciation
of those already conferred. You will
know that ore vote at the primary lie
worth three promises in the bayfield,.
You will know that one may fail OF a
nomination and still live and have a
reasonably fair appetite. These are
some of the things you will know. And
it is worth a good many hard ticks to
learn them.

THE RIGHT KIND OF TALK.

ED. REGISTER:
The 1.-TWO or three" who were OPP
posed to the contract disposing of the
city's interest in the gas well were
working only in the public interest,
and on information not in possession
of the general public.
That the opposition was not for "mere
opinion sake" is shown by the fact that
when the contract was read to the city
council that body unanimously in
structed the city's representative 20 do
all in his power to defeat it.
The action. however, was too late
and all that remains is to make the
more cheerfully than the
Two OR THREE.
The above certainly shows most
commendable Spirit, the kind Of spirit
that will boom the town if anything
will. The REGISTER never for an in
slant believed or intimated that the
course of the "two or three" in oppos-
ing the contract with Mr.. Pryor was
dictated by anything else than their
interest in the public welfare, as they
viewed it. 1t only stated its conf
dence in the judgment of the majority
on the Board of Directors who had APP
proved the contract. and thought they
ought to be upheld. We believe that
if strictly carried out in letter and
spirit, the contract will result in great
advantage to the city; and no one will
insist more strenuously than this paper
that it be thus carried out. The city
has given away a valuable franchise
and it has right to expect, and We
believe it will receive, strictly square
dealing in return.
