ONE honest old republican whom we
asked recently to take the DEMOCRAT,
said he would do so if it was not for
its politics" He said it was ''the best
paper in the county'-but he did not
like its politics. He said sit has more
good, interesting general and local
reading matter each week than any
two other papers in the county," but
Its democracy made him mad" and
he did not want to get mad. He said
most of his neighbors got it, and he
saw it every week'-but he did not
like its politics. Now my friend, don't
you think you could afford to spend
81 so year for the paper, and have one
of your own and not bother your neigh
bOrs about theirs? Even though your
so prejudiced against straight democ-
racy, don't you think you would feel
better if you read your own paper?

THERE is considerable comment in
Kansas papers concerning the hanging
of Oliphant at Topeka, and the killing
of Wellington, the seducer, by the
father of his victim, at Clay Center.
The prevailing opinion of the press is
that the seducer and the burglar and
murderer were justly punished. A few
more cases of swift justice, and there
lands. The laws delays may be well
enough as general rule; but they need
the stimulant of an occasional case of
swift retribution to prevent justice
from constantly sleeping as well as
being blind.

FARMERS, it would be well if an IL
horsethief societies were organized in
each township in this county. There
is too much horse stealing going on.
If an organization was had there would
be better chance for the capture of
thieves and bringing them to quick
justice. When an animal is stolen
from farmer and he has to conduct
the search for it single handed it not
only makes it slow work but expensive
work; while if a thorough organization
was had it would prove a protection to
all alike. Organize, in every township.
