a few of the shipments of cattle from
this point lately call attention to the fact
that Old Mexico is waking up, and ener-
getic traders are taking advantage of her
need of new and improved animals as well
as articles. A car load of mich cows was
purchased near this city and shipped on
yesterday direct to the City of Mexico. Two
car loads have already been sent to the
Mexican frontier from Emporia. The in
dicatiOns are that the market will be good
for years to come and that the farmer who
intelligently grades up his stock will find
himself in a good and paying business
Lyon county stands between the south
western market and the east and is far
enough north for the rearing of as fine
cattle as that market can demand.-Em-
poria Republican.
The only thing in the way of Kansas
realizing the greatest amount of direc
benefit possible from this Mexican trade
Is reciprocal arrangement whereby that
country might find an open market here
for such of its products as we want and
for which there is a ready demand. In
other words, the Inauguration of trade
reciprocity with Mexico would give Kan
sas the first call on much of the trade
both ways.

The Wichita Jail, according to The Kan

The foregoing simply shows with
what avidity fanatics and cranks Jump
to conclusions, without regard to reason
or facts, when they hope to score a point.
Wichita Is accustomed to such slurs and
false statements as that quoted and we
only notice this to correct misapprehen-

Sedgwick county Jail. The prison regis
ter shows fifty-siX persons incarcerated
there, but of this number only ten are
chargeable to Sedgwick county. More
than half of the number are United States
prisoners, and these are mostly from the
territory. The balance-about dozen
are from other counties, sent here for

The Troy Chief and Topeka Capital

ton as related to the present campaign.
The Capital insists on making that THE
issue, while the Chief disposes of it after
this brief fashion:
Would it not be well for Republican
campaign speakers to devote less atten-
ton to prohibition, and more to Republi-
canism: Prohibition is fixed fact and
cannot be altered. Many persons who
were originally opposed TO it, have be-
come reconciled and satisfied. and there
is no danger of its repeal. Then, why
tire the people out by dining it into
their ears in every speech: 1t becomes
