CANDIDATES COMPARED.

CANDIDATES COMHAhHO.
1t is generally conceded, by Democrats
as we'll as Republicans, that the ticket
nominated by the Democratic convention
last Saturday is weak one with reference
to the support it is likely to receive at
the polls on November 5. Personally
some OF the candidates are worthy and
we'll qualified, but none Of them have any
particular strength or special qualiica-
tions to commend them to the Indepen-
dent voter. It is not . representative
ticket composed of representative men.
Two of the best offices, and, by the way,
the only two that Wa-Keeney Democrats
are going to make any effort to elect were
given to this city. We refer to the Office
Of county clerk and register of deeds. So
far as sheriff and county treasurer are
concerned they were only nominated for
the purpose OF trade and no effort will be
made to even give them their party vote.
We predict that neither Furbeck nor
Shelton will receive their full party vote
It never was the intention Of the self con-
stituted managers Of the party that they
should.
M. W. Mccoy. the Democratic nominee
for register OF deeds, is good man, but

county clerk and sheriff. Doesn't look
much like ring this time, does it, Dem
ocrats? Doesn't look much like Wa.
Keeney taking everything does it? No.
it is q representative county ticket in
every sense. and we expect that our coun.
try townships will join us in rolling up at
least the full party vote this fall. From
reports from all over the county we are
satisfied that they will do it.

1T WoN'T WORK.

The Democrats are talking in this
strain, 'There we're a number of disap.
pointed candidates for the Office of regis.
ter Of deeds and they and their friends
will work against Cross, and that will
give us good show to elect Mccoy
Delusive hope as baseless as the fabric OF
a vision. The candidates who were de-
feated were not Republicans for office
only and such talk is an insult to every
one of them, which they will not be slow
to rebuke.
Western Kansas world., 1889-10-19

In speaking of the county expenses for
the first half of the year 1889, our neigh
Dor Hotchkiss seems to forget several i'm
portant items. In the first place, num-
ber of cases were settled and the costs
taxed to the county that had been on the
docket for several years and we're no part
of this years expenses, these costs having
been incurred long time prior to 1889.
Again, MI. Hotchkiss should remember
that there are nearly four times as many
cases on the district court docket as there
were four years ago and, consequently,
the costs Of the court must correspond
ingly increase. But, admitting, for the
argument that the expenses are much toe
large, what has that to do with Mr.
Hoar? He didn't incur the obligations
and didn't vote to pay them. We expect
next to hear Mr.. Hoar charged with the
dry seasons and hot winds. The seasons
have been unusually unfavorable there
it follows that Mr.. Hoaris to be blamed
for it, and he should either abdicate OF
be bounced. 1t wouldn't do any good
to deny that Mr.. Hoar, by virtue of his
Office, is also ex-oficio weather clerk, for
Convince man against his will and he
is of the same opinion STILL" We will
anticipate enough to admit that the
Johpstown food was terrible calamity
but Hoar didn't have anything to do with
it. There would be as much argument in
statement similar to the above as there
would be in concluding that, because the
county's expenses are greater now than
they were in 1885, therefore the RESPONSE
bility should be directly chsrgesble to
the county clerk, The county clerk has
received no more salary than is provided
by Law, which fact each voter can easily
determine for himself. We don't think
M. Hotchkiss meant anything when he
made that charge. 1t is too ridiculous to
reply to and in that regard it is in harm
ony with the other charges referred.

Your correspondent visited the
Border News Sanctum and viewed
the corn there on exhibition for
premiums. 1t was one of the fin
est exhibits of the kind / ever
looked upon. 1t was such close
competition for quality that it
nearly bafiled experienced farmers
to decide which was entitled to
the awards. We will say in praise
of Bro Egan the worthy editor that
his untireing efforts to put his
locality to the front of the ranks in
their agricultural pursuits as well
as all other laudable calling should
entitle him toa liberal patronage
for that is his only show of recon-
pense and other rural papers would
do well to take the same steps.
Blue Creek is now enjoying the

Jeannie's Bonnie Dream.

sparkling sand, the mother and the
child, says the Scottish American.
The tiny golden head nestled
against the protecting breast; the

sun; the eyes were closed and II
smile parted the bloodless lips.
The maiden slept.
The mother watched beside her
sleeping child, and she-scarce

Jesus, save my little girl" Again
and again she repeated it; "Save
my little child,p That was all.
o God! why are the poor born to
be so unhappy?
Softly she drew the threadbare
tartan shawl around the slender
frame. Gentle as was the motion
it reused the sleeper. The great
blue eyes opened wide.
"Did wake We, JEANNE
