Funston carried .',i.y county in the
district except Linn and Franklin.
The closest estimate we are able to
make gives him = ,,'uraiity over Allen
of 2,1e0.
The eyes of the Repu blicans all over
the State rest upon the returns from
Allen county with the same feeling
that the eyes of the weary traveller
rest upon an oasis in the Sahara.

The joke is on Jim Ryker In Carlyle

with his own vote still In his vest

Mr.. Funston may well congratulate

A grOan of hopeless despair shook

Busluess Suggestions.

EDITOR REGISTER:-It seems very
strange to us that the towns in this
part of Kansas are making no more
effort to grow and improve their con-
diiiOns for the majority of them have
abundance of natural fuel and b great
many other superior advantages for
great enterprising business that would
be of great value to the town and sur
rounding farm community. We take
notice that in towns where there is
work for several hundred laboring
men that there is a greater demand
and higher prices for the farmers pro-
ducts. Now for Instance, If lola had
steady employment for q thousand
laborers we think that the merchant
would not have to ship the farm and
dairy products to the eastern cities.
The farmer would receive as much
more anyway as the commission men
aud railroad have for transition. We
also take notice that the towns that
are progressing the most are the ones
that are advertising the most and are
liberal patronizers of their home
newspapers. These are facts that
they should think about aud not for
get to advertise their opportunities
extensively for We predict that if the
towns of south eastern Kansas want
to prosper and be of much Importance
that it must be through the newspa-
per press more than any other private
way.
The town is O. X. that keeps itself
well advertised and will soon arrive
at the stage of cityhood and be great.
Advertise, advertise,
For that is the way
That always pays The best.
And pay for il as you 20
And the editors mind will easily rest
Now reader do not take me
For periodical charmer
For these are only tbs sentiments Of
A non-educated Allen county farmer.>

reasons why Mr.. Funston should be

body name another man now who
could have got out of the way of the

Children'S DaY.

The program as published in last
weeks WORLD was faithfully carried out
at the NJ. E. church, the children all per.
forming their parts we'll. An especially
impressive scene was the closing tableau
"Sweet Hour of Prayer" represented by
four little girls, with clasped hands up
lifted toward large white cross about
which they were kneeling, while an invis-
ible choir softly sang the hymn whose
title was SO well illustrated. The room
had been gaily decorated for the occasion
and presented an attractive appearance
Owing to the large crowd the WORLD re-
porter was unable to get farther than the
door, which rendered it impossible for us
to make separate mention of all the per-
formers. There was also an interesting
program and large attendance at
THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH,
where. although no extensive preparation
had been made, the little ones were made
happy and the old folks agreeably enter
tanned.
The other churches did not have any
separate exercises, but joined with the
two above mentioned.

The following card appeared in the
Hays City Republican last week. Our
opinion is that the marshal is safe.
To the People of Hays City-Ladies
and gentlemen: am sorry that my war
whoop Of last Monday evening annoyed
you SO. But ss the boys in blue, who
carried our flag from Is to 25 years ago,
had to use just such war whoop, it will
be reminder of the past when there was
not settler from eastern Kansas to the
Pacific, nor from the Rio Grande to
Manitoba. Fellow citizens, I have
helped to carry your flag over the above
space aud not gone through the indignity
that went through on Sunday night. II
1 offend your laws I shall give myself up
to the smallest child on our streets. But
to that cowardly Russian marshal, never.
And say to you here, that if he is on
our streets by next Tuesday, I shall kill
him so help me God. shall.

Plucky Mrs. Sharpe.

Last Monday night Mrs. James Sharpe
was awakened by some one trying to
gain an entrance to the house. After
listing short time while the would be
burglar tumbled at the door, in the mean
time securing q revolver which she
fortunately kept in the house, she de-
manded to know who was there and
what was wanted.
Receiving no reply to this enquiry
twice repeated, she proceeded to fill the
door full OF holes. Whether she succeed
ed in hitting the unhung william is I'M
known, but it goes without saying that
all was quiet about that house the
remainder of the night and We may
safely suppose will be safe for all time
to come from any further molestation
from the same source. Mrs. Sharpe Is
compelled to remain alone the most OF
the time, as her husband is employed in
]. L. Browns clothing store at Ellis and,
it is supposed that, knowing this, some
tramp attempted to gain an entrance,
but the warm reception given him by
this plucky lady may lead him to think
that that all women are not towards.
