THE St. Louis Globe Democrat does not
believe that there will be any such folly
in Congress as to put partisan bias into the
apportionment bill. Probably not. Yet
it must be admitted there are party leaders
or managers who would, if unrestrained,
commit that folly. Such gains as could
be made by party by such procedure
would only serve to provoke greater indig-
nation among the people than was mani
fest in the recent rebuke at the polls. The
Republican party cannot afford any such
tactics, and if the Democratic party were
in power, it has learned lessons enough in
recent years to refrain from making the
gerrymander national. The party that
exhibits greatest enlightenment in the
present condition of affairs will, as the
st. Louis paper well says, be more likely
to win the confidence of the people.

WHEN Congress assemblies the business
of the country always manifests some I'M
easy concern. The reason is found in the
fact that legislation has been promoted so
greatly in the interest of rings, syndicates,
aggregated capital and party ambition,
What the country needs is settled pol
icy upon the tariff question, legislation
for the unprotected glasses Without inter.
ference by manufacturing trusts, money
combinations and chronic partisans.

THE story comes by wire that Mr.. Par
nell is insane. We do not believe it. But
he certainly is not acting as man should
who is guided by well-seated reason. If it
is admitted, as his friends contend, that
there is no person equal to the task of fill
ing his place, it remains true that his
leadership now divides his party, and d.
vision is the very thing, of all Others, the
home rule party cannot afford.

earners ana producers, ana we -Dur SPEAK
fer ourselves when We express our sympathy
for labor in its struggles with the insatiate
money power, whether in the factory or on
the farm.
Ninth-We are opposed to all sumptuary
legislation and demand the earliest result
mission of the sO-called Prohi bitory amend
ment to a vote of the electors and an imme-
diate repeal of the laws passed in the inter
est of prohibition which confer dangerous
powers upon the courts and substantially
deprive the citizens of trial by jury and To-
cal self government, and we declare une-
quivocally for high license and local option.
Tenth-We arraign the Republican men,
bers of the present National House of Rep
resentatives from Kansas for their unani-
nous vote for the Mckinley bill which, as
Hon. James Gillespie Blaine said would not
provide market for a single bushel of Kan
sas wheat or a single barrel of Kansas pork.
We condemn this vote as being in the in
terest of the manufacturers of the East and
against the farmers and working men of
Kansas.
Eleventh-As the Republicans of this State
in their late convention made John James
Ingells an issue in this campaign, we are
compelled to ask the people of Kansas to re-
pudiate a man who in a widely circulated
interview, denounced reform in politics as
an "irldescent dream" declared that ''the
decalogue has no place in politics." and ex-
pressed the belief that the use of money in
cam paigns and the employment of hired
Hes slams were iusti1able.
Twelfth-We believe that prohibition has
brou ght upon the people of this State meal
culable evils and has tended to produce, as
its Legitimate results, perjury and bribery;
has corrupted the very foundations of just
ice by q system of hired spies and informers
and made at times our courts a disgrace in
the administration of public justice.
Thirteenth-We declare emphatically In
favor of high license and local option, and
recommend a law providing that for each
license issued for the sale of liquor $500
shall be paid to the county treasurer for the
purpose of making and improving county
roads, and that the city municipalities shall
in addition fix such sums as the mayor and
councils may determine
FOurteenth-We are emphatically in favor
of the exercise by the Legislature of its I'M
doubted powers to regulate the operations
of railroads in this state, TO the end that
passen ger and freight rates shall be equal,
reasonable and fair. There Is no legal right
in railroads to charge n small shipper
higher rate than large one, nor is 1t just
for common carriers to charge higher sum
for the transportation of agricultural prod
ucts than of any merchandise.
Fifteentb-We favor a liberal appropria-
tion by Congress for the purpose of thor
oughly testing the practicabilIty of irriga-
tion in the western portion of this State,
and also In favor of a liberal appropriation
by Congress for a deep water harbor on the
Gulf of Mexico, and it is the judgment of
this convention that the railroads OF the
State should be required to pay taxes upon
the full amo mt Of their capital

and Smith of Emporia and Bennington
of Topeka the defendants, Bennington
and Rassler. a large number Of wit
nesses were examined by the state in
endeavoring to show that the contest
was technically a prize fight. The
state has not yet concluded.
The jury came in last evening on the
Raster prize fight case giving a verdict
of acquital. AS Rasler had been tried
separately from Bennington, the case
against the latter vas dismissed.
The case against Rasler for disturb

CLAIMED TO BE FRAUDULENT
Knights of Aurora Arraigned by Com.
missioner Bailey.

The Topeka Capital contains an
article which will be of interest to the
forty or fifty members of the lodge OF
knights of Aurora of Abilene. The
lodge has been in working order for
several weeks and no suspicion of bad
faith has been entertained. The Capt.
tai says:
The Minneapolis Mimi Times of
September 2 makes an exposure of the
Knights of Aurora. The statement is
signed by A. L. G.. Powers, who SAYS
that it will be presented to the insur-
ance department of Minnesota. 1t is "A
well known fact that the laws Of Kan
sas do not attempt to control or SUPER
wise secret fraternal societies. Oar
citizens may organize as many as they
see fit in this state, and may join the
hundreds in other states if they so de-
sire.
Mr.. Powers writes to Superintendent
Wilder: Il am told thai some eight
or ten agents of the order are working
in Kansas, and have obtained some
500 or soc members in the last few
months, although their payments of
cash have not been entered in the office
here"
1t appears from the statement of Mr..
Powers to Hon. c. L. Bailey. insurance
commissioner of Minnesota. that the
published statements of the knights of
Aurora purpOrting to come from Com
missioner Bailey have all been full of
falSehOods; that the society claimed to
have 5000 members when it only had
400, and thatit bad SS,728. 80 in cash
when the real amount did not exceed
5000 Its present reserve fund is
S2S.75.
Most of the officers whose names are
given in circulars can not be found and
do not exist. The annual meeting last
year was held "in parlor D of the Briggs
house, Indianapolis, but there is no
such hotel in that city, and there was
no annual meeting.
OF course the result of this exposure
will be the winding up of the knights
by Commissioner Bailey.

RESUBMISSION.
Meeting of Delegates at Wichita,
Kan.
An ALLIANCE WITH DEMOCRATS.
The Party Gets the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
NOmin 'tiOn- Platform Adopted De-
nouncing ProphIbition and Calling
Tor Repeal.

WICHITA, Kan, Sept 10. - There
were $50 delegates present when the
Resubmission Republican convention
assembled in Garfield Hall, which was
called to order by A. L. Allen, of Tope-
ka, president Of the State clubs.
On calling the convention to order
President Allen delivered short ad-
dress and introduced Hon. d. A. Banta,
of Great Bend, as temporary chairman.
After concluding his remarks Mr..
Banta asked the further pleasure of the
convention and it was moved and car
ried that Beecher Sterne, of Topeka, act
as temporary secretary. Committees on
permanent organization and order of
business were appointed and the former
soon reported, making the temporary
organization permanent
Speeches were made by Hon. Lucien
Baker, of Leavenworth, and w. R.
Payne, of Wichita, after which the plat
form was adopted.
No nominations were made, but it was
decided to appoint conference com
mittee of five to wait upon the Demo
cratic convention and see if Hon. D. A.
Banta, of Great Bend, would suit it for
Lieutenant-Governor. If this place was
given the convention pledged itself by
vote to indorse the full Democratic
ticket
1t was the first intention of the con-
vention to nominate Hon. Lucien Baker
for Chief Justice, but in a speech that
gentleman positively declined the
honor.
The Resubmission Republicans in
their declaration of principles renew
their pledges to their National party,
declare for reciprocity as set forth by
Secretary Blaine, ask for free silver
coinage and an increase in the volume
of money to meet the needs of trade, ia
vor such a modification of the present
tariff laws as will protect and encourage

DICKINsoN'S SCHOOLS.
Interesting Points from the Super.
intendent's Annual Report.

Interesting Points from the Super
intendent's Annual Report.
The reports of the 125 district clerks
of the county have all been received
and County Superintendent J. S. Ford
has completed his annual report to the
state superintendent. The figures con-
tanned in it regarding Dickinson's
schools are interesting and show good
condition of educational interests.
The school population for the year end
ing July 1, 1890 was 1920, of these
1856 were enrolled in the schools but
the average daily attendance was only
4,1S4. There were employed 76 male
teachers at an average salary of S44.49
and so female at S3S.3S. The average
length of school term was 81 months.
There are 126 school buildings in the
county Of which two were built last
year, costing So, 24O. There were 1876
applicants for teachers certificates dur
ing the year of which 81 were rejected.
The average age of those receiving GER
tiicates was 20 years; 80 of those re-
ceiving certificates had had no previous
experience in teaching. Every district
in the county maintained school for
more than three months during the
year. The county spent for school
purposes SCI ,22O aud there is SS,872 in
the hands of district treasurers.
The reports have all come i'll in
better shape than ever before. The
eOunty's school officers are in the front
rank of the state for general intelli-
gence and ability. 1t is for this reason
that Dickinson county ranks so well in
educational circles.

SANGUINARY SARAH.

She Seeks the Blood OF Bank President,
Impeiied Iiy n Wealthy Friend
New CASTLE, Pa, Sept 1O.-Sarah
Randolph, alias Mrs. .McGinty, was put
on trial here yesterday, charged with
soliciting one Sam Kiss.nGer to murder
Banker Foltz. K'ssinger was the only
witness called He said that last May
he received letter from Mrs. McGinty,
asking him to call on her on important
business. He did so, when she offered
him 81, 500 if he would murder the pres
ident of the First National Bank. She
would not give the name of the princi-
pal, but said wealthy friend of hers
wanted it done.
Kissinger held several meetings with
her, he being accompanied the last time
by detective, who was introduced as
his brother. The woman again offered
the 81, 500, at the same time cautioning
them to murder the banker after night
then rob him, in order to avoid suspi-
cion of any other motive. The woman
