The Implemeat Dealers.

The western association of imple-
ment dealers at Kansas City passed
resolutions endorsing the farmers at
tempts to secure an emergency rate for
moving their corn, and pledged their
support in their movement. They also
appointed a committee to confer with
the Kansas City commercial club re-
garding the same subject. They also
petitioned congress to put raw fiber for
binding Irvine on the free list, owing
to the fact that American-raised fiber
does not make good Irvine.

There was filed this afternoon IN the
Office of the district clerk the report of
Messrs. Thee. Mosher, B. G. Cranston
and w. G. Cowles, the appraisers OF
the assets of Lebold, Fisher Il Co. The
report has been in course of construc-
ton for nearly month, during which
time the gentlemen have been exam1n-
ing and appraising to the best OF their
judgment the vast mass of notes, mort
cages, ETC., held by the bank, and the
fact that they have completed their
work so soon speaks well fol their dill
gence. Their report has been preceded
from time to time by those OF local ap-
praisers appointed to estimate the val
ue of western Kansas lands held by
Lebold, Fisher & Co., and these reports
have duly appeared in The REFLEC-
TORS columns. Now however, that
the whole assets are examined, brief
recapitulation will be interesting.
When the doors of the Abilene bank
closed on October 2s, 1889, the follow
ing was the list of liabilities:

Promissory notes taken in good faith
shrunk from Sic, 900 to $500. Of
this shrinkage Bessey had Sl3, 900 worth
and Rohrer and Blevins S28, 900, besides
large sums elsewhere. Such shTinkages
taken in connection with the calls for
ARRANGEMENTS on rediscOunted paper
were enough to drive any firm to the
wall. Both Mr.. Fisher and Mr.. Leb0ld
have been interchangeable in their efforts
to assist the appraisers in their work
and will continue to devote their time
to settling up the affairs of the institu'
ton.
Hon. John JohntZ, the permanent
assignee, will Immediately assume
charge and the cash will be realized fOl
the creditors at the earliest possible
moment.

OF this sum the guaranteed real es-
tate loans were not properly liabilities,
as the real estate and mortgages are
good for the sums in nearly every case,
while about half the rediscounts will be
good, thus making the actual liabilities
at approximately 100000.

RELIGIOUS MATTERS.
GOD is THE HUsBANpMAN.

God compass thee with favor as shield
Thro' all the seasons changsful days and

The changes be as to some fruitful field,
Where sun is shaded but for gracious
showers.
His favor be thy strength to serve and yield,
as earth serves Heaven by yielding fruits
and flowers
II biting frost come from the bitter no nth
IT'S but to fray the earth to reader mol d
Meath leaden skies the sower goeth forth
And fills the burrows with q wealth Of

Though wild winds sweep and howl in
threatening wrath,
The seed corn sleeps within thy heart. Be
bold.
There cometh soon tune when storms are
still,
When all the earth is arched with sunny
blue,
And how through all the harvest ripened
grew;
Thy Father is the Husbandman. His will
Is ever good who maketh all things new.
Since blacken'd roots and shapeless with.

About all the Bible some folks have

ehaLlshWoMEh IN POLITICS.

Their Interest In Public Affairs Has Not
Lessened Their WomanIy Instincts or
Attractions.
Helen P. Jenkins, president of the
Michigan E. s. A., writes as follows
concerning the part and interest the
women Of England take in politics.
Women in America have something to
learn from our sisters in England. We
fancy because we have Republican
government that progressive ideas in
regard to women are greatly in advance
in our country. This is . mistake.
Women in England, especially the edu-
Gated women, are as familiar with the
workings Of government as are English
men. Not only have women had NUM-
cipal suffrage in England for twenty or
more years, but they fill many public
offices at which Mrs. Grundy in Ameri-
ca holds up her hands in holy horror.
These Englishwomen have universally
won the confidence and support of the
people. AS members Of the school board
and guardians of the poor they have
been eminently successful All educat-
ed women in England are familiar with
politics. The Conservative ladies have
their Primrose Leagues and discuss
political measures. without, it seems, the
least loss of their loneliness. The Lib
eral ladies have their Liberal Leagues
all over England, and every measure OF
the various political parties is analysed
as thoroughly as in mems leagues. !
have not heard that these Liberal la
dies are any less capable mothers or any
less lovely in their husbands eyes. In
deed, think their value has increased,
since. as l have understood, they are
frequently consulted with upon polit.
ical measures. Mrs. Gladstone is q
prominent leader among the Liberal
| ladies.
Surely American women need moi
fear that an interest in politics (which
means only public measures) will de-
preciate their value to their male
friends unless American men are good
deal narrower in their ideas than En-
glishmen. The broader the interests
the nobler the life, and the nObler those
| who recognize this fact.

in WUMAN'S BEHALF.
WOMAN.

A queen in her beautiful garments,
She stands on the ramparts today
To herald the dawn, and the cerements
OF her past are folded away.
She stands with the prophets and ssges;
She speaks. and her tongue Is fiame
Leaping forth from fires which for ages
Have smoldered in silence and shame.
Her feet have come up from the valleys,
They are climbing the mountains OF light
At her call the world rouses and rallies,
Bearing arms In the battle Of right.
She treads on the serpent, that struggles
And grnds out its life meath her heel;
She grgpples with sorrows that wrong her,
Converting her woe into veal;
Made strong through her slaughtered shec
ions,
She comes. with her sons by her side.
An angel of power and protection,
Their beacon light, leader and guide.
No longer a timorous being,
To crnge and to cry meath the rod,
But quick to divine, and far-seeing,
She hastens the purpose Of God.

LET HER STAND ALONE.


Girls Should BE Trained to Independ-
ence and Self-Support.
Once give full scope to the expression
Of womans powers, and in any and
every form of activity that may cores
pond to those powers, relieve alike from
fear Of poverty and dependence, and
from the tyranny Of enforced inactivity,
and womanhood will blossom into a
beauty and strength and loneliness of
character hitherto undreamed Of. Es-
pecially in the home relations of women
will this be apparent AS an earnest
thinker upon the subject has said, sit
is inevitable that the removal of any
external pressure Of necessity to marry
for the sake of home and support will
have tendency to elevate the standard
of marriage, first among women, and
then among men," One Of the greatest
foes TO happy marriages is the existence
Of the mercenary spirit on the part Of
parents and daughters. Nothing will SC
effectually remove 1t as the possession
by young girls and women of salts
factory, honorable, remunerative occu'
pations, and the countenance and ap.
probation of society in the pursuit Of
them. Margaret Fuller said: INC
woman can give her hand with dignity
until she can learn to stand alone" The
day is near at hand when the thorough
ly educated woman will be the one ad
mirably described by Goethe as able
If necessary, to be both father and
mother to her children" Here will be
found the true conditions for forming
love-inspired marriages, and, as conse
quence, the ceasiRg to be of any Other
kind. And while we open to them the
door Of freedom to find that highes
heaven of earthly happiness-t home
builded upon love and happy marriage
we at the same time furnish them will
a key Of escape from that bastile, tina
hell--a marriage from which love an(
respect have departed.--Mrs. Helen E
Starrett, in Forum.

These very common words may SOC.
Wanted-a boy to errands run,
Wanted for every thing under the sun.
All that the men to. day can do
To- morrow the boys will be doing too,
For the time Is ever coming when
The boys must stand In place of men.
Wanted-the world wants boys to. day,
And she offers them all she has for pay.
Honor, wealth, position. fame,
useful life and deathless name.
Boys to shape the paths for men,
Boys to guide the pillow and pen,
Boys to forward the tasks begun,
For the worlds great work is never done
The world Is anxious to employ
Not just one, but every boy
whose heart and brain will eer be true
To work his hands shall find to do.
Honest, faithful, earnest, kind;
To good awake, to evil blind;
Heart Of gold without alloy.
