pltal comparative examinations Of the
sputa Of patients inoculated for phthlsis
with koch's lymph have begun. In the
case of one patient, before incubation
three bacilli were found In the field Of
examination. After the third injection
thirteen TO twenty-five bacill were pres

the Quantity than before injection. After
the fifth injection the sputa diminished
In quantity and contained from FIVE TO
ten bacillI. The mans general condition
was improved and his appetite good. In
another case OF phthisis four bacilli were
found after the first Injection, so to 100
after the third and forty TO sixty after
the sixth. Now, ten days after the first
Injection, the sputa IL diminishing In

HE WANTS OFFICE.

Pratt Union: ''Mr. Axline went per-
sonally into the Peoples convention,
and sought the nomination for the same
position. He was assisted by his son
and few other friends, who was conf
dent OF his success. The convention
prepared the following pledge for its
candidates:
That we will stand on the ST. Louis
platform and support only candidates
who will support these principles i'll
full, either in state or national legISla-
ton; and further that the candidate
nominated for representative be pledg-
ed to not go into secret caucus with
either of the old political parties, but to
work OH the line of these principles, and
support no man for United States Sen
atOr who will not agree to do the same. }
On placing the names before the con-
vention the gentlemen were requested
TO take position on the rostrum in
plain view of the delegates. Mr.. AK
line and the other candidates for repre-
sentative complied with the request,
thereby implicitly taking the above
pledge. Balloting proceeded, but Mr.
AXline's strength was not sufficient to
secure the nomination.
Mr.. Axline has told us upon two &C.
casiOns that he would not pledge him
self to support John ]. Ingalls,, nor
would he accept the nomination from
any party if it was not satisfactory to
the Farmers Alliance of the county. In
view of these statements we were in
clined to believe with him that he had
not received fair play in the convention,
but his letter settled that question be-
yOnd doubt. His known tendency to
vacillate in politics defeated him. We
want man for representative who has
positive convictions of the great need of
legislation in behalf of the toillng mil
lions-a man who will not go into car
Gus with either of the old political par
ties-a man who will work early and
late for the principles laid down in our
platfOrm-a man who will not vote for
John j. ingalls, for senator or any other
man who is not positively pledged to
advocate, and do all in his power to en-
act laws to bring about the demands of
that platform. We have such man IN
the person of ]. G. Pierson, for whom
we will work and vote"

Mr.. AXline calls Mr.. Simpson an
atheist, and then modifies the term by
calling him an infidel. He applies these
terms in reproach; and presuming that
Mr.. Axline is really concerned for the
future welfare of Mr.. Simpsons indy
ing spirit, we take occasion to show Mr..
AXline that he himself is standing on
slippery ground. He has been taught
all his life to believe that Jesus is the
Christ, and yet he is daily putting
Christ to shame; is daily trampling UNI
der foot the blood that he believes was
shed for his own salvation. This is the
way the bible speaks OF those who be-
lieve, and yet obey not. From Chris
tian standpoint Mr.. AXline has no ad-
vantage of an infidel. Both are daily
rejecting Christ, one wilfully, the other
ignorantly. The wilful sinner is always
the greater sinner. We would rejoice
to see our contemporary brought into
the fold which he seems to respect by
words, and yet daily rejects. Now is
the day of grace. If you age il earnest,
come now.

Col. Hickox authorizes us to say that
the great mares nest" discovered by
the Cresset is no news to the people OF
this county. He received s., 900 for his
work in favor of giving the Hannibal
" st. 10. railroad more time in which
to pay its debt to the state of Missouri.
He has never denied this and never
tried to keep it secret. He was pan
of influence and his work was worth
something. lie did Ill he agreed to do;
got the money and put it in his pocket.
He considered it PLAIN matter of bust
ness, just as James o. Broodhead and
John 3. Henderson did, for they were
both working with Col. Hickox for the
same purpose; He says the state lost
nothing by renewing the bonds, but it
gave the road more time to pay its debt,
which it was then unable TO do. He
earned his money; admitted before the
committee that he received it, and SAYS
that if he had chance to do so, he
would do the same work again. But he
denies eyer haying been unfaithfuI to
any trust, either Of the people CT OF bic
employers.

Governor Steele read his first message
to the Oklahoma legislature, last week.
He advises the Legislature to make
speedy arrangements to relieve their
needy people. Governor Steele is an
Indiana republican, and yet he says:
Il recommend the adoption of chapter
%, compiled statutes of Nebraska, an
nOtated 1889, on liquors. A rigid en-
torcement of this chapter would, i'll my
opinion give us better protection against
the evils of intemperance than that
enjoyed by states attempting prohibit
tory law. Under this act where the
real sentiment of the people is in favor
of prohibition it may be had in any
town or county. Provision is carefully
made for the protection and support of
the family of the drinker by collection
of damages from the seller. A much
greater tax than is necessary for con-
trolling the traffic may be levied. With
out further enumeration | regard it as
a wisely enacted chapter. which l am
sure will received your best considera-
tiOn.n

NO INGALLS, FOR THEM.

1t had been boosted that the alliance
OF Atchison county, (the home of SEN
atOr Ingalls, would endorse him, but
it seems they forgot to do so. The
Atchison county peoples convention
met at bingham, August %, and NOM
mated county ticket. The only con-
test during the convention occurred OH
the nomination of prosecuting attorney.
AT the conclusion of the baIloting
the following resolution was unani
mOusly adopted:
Resolved, That it is the sense of this con-
vention that the nominees of the convention
for members of the legislature stand pledged
not to vote Tor the reelection of John j. In
gals to the United States senate"
The announcement there of the
adoption of the anti-Ingalls reso-
luton by the peoples convention Gre
ated quite sensation there, especially
because the ingalls, fixers had tor sew
eral weeks claimed that they could
draw the new party over to their side
and secure the election of two ingalls,
representatives in the legislature next
winter. Many of the ardent supporters
of Ingalls, have already given up all
hope of carrying Atchison county for
him.

The CreSset says the proof of Mr..
simpsons anarchIstic and atheistic
principles is forthcoming. That is what
we want. Put up or shut up. The
Cresset also says that every assertion it
made was true. which we characterized
rs 'guesses." Now we take occasion
20 say that not one was true. Its ilst
statement was that ''they were holding
off In order that as many as possible
could be interested in the matter and i'm
an attempt to persuade Mr.. Caruthers
to assume editorial CONTROL" We again
assert that no attempt was made to get
Mr.. Caruthers to do anything of the
sort. Consequently the next guess was
wrong, for he dId not refuse to do what
he was not asked to do. And In the
next place, no time was definitely fixed
for the trade to be declared off. We
assert that no promise was made to Sin
crease the subscription list about $50. !"
No promise of any sort was made. The
Alliance controls the paper, and the
members are working for it; but wheth-
er we get 100 or 900 new subscribers,
no promise was made and zone will be
broken. They have raised only about
30 OF the number, and are realizing that
they have contracted big job" The
very day these lines were printed in the
Ores set, we received list of so from
Sharon alone. The Cresset ought to
have acknowledged that it was guess
ing, and thus escaped the conclusion
that it was doing something worse.
However. no harm is done: but we men
ton these things to show that the Cres-
set Is not always reliable in its state
nants

Dodge City Times: 1.-The demO-
cratic convention at Pratt doubled the
peoples party vote, gave it newspa-
perS to voice its aims and objects, sub
merged democratic organization and
aspirations in its favor, and gave an
impetus to the alliance movement that
1t would have otherwise taken years to
attain. 1t was indeed sacrifice, and
one that we fear, will never be appre-
GATED" The Times can put Barber
county down as appreciative OF the
sacrifice. The alliance welcomes all
help, whether democratic or republican.

1t is said that Ingalls, has seen the
great hit made by Plumb in his anti

speech on the tariff bill, and his friends
say it will take all the wind out of
Plumb's sails. Ingalls, is no fool, and
he has to toe the mark sooner or later,
and it would not surprise us to see him
