Has Figured It Ont

A Topeka dispatch has ingalls, cleo
ton all figured out on the following
basis:
Senate, thirty-eight for Ingalls, and
two against; house, twenty-seven re
publicans, nine democrats and eighty
nine allianceites. Of the latter fifty
eight have been instructed against
ingalls,, leaving thirty-one uninstructed,
in spite of declarations to the contrary
The nine democrats In the house will
not all vote against ingalls,. In fact,
six of them have pledged their votes
already. The revised figures then
stand for Ingalls,, sixty-fve republicans
six democrats, making a total of
seventy-one. OF thirty-One unin-
structed allianceites eighteen have
announced their friendly feelings to-
wards ingalls, and have agreed to vote
for ingalls, if respectable petitions are
addressed to them from their own
counties. These petitions will be
forthcoming, making the ingalls, vote
eighty-nine.
I'm fact, however, seven more votes
can be surely counted, giving the sena-
tor ninety-six votes, or thirteen more
than enough to elect. Were it prudent,
names could be given to verify the
above"
1t may ''pan out'' according to the
above statement but there is a slight
suspicion of fishiness about certain por-
tons of the argument.

Hardly Crazy

Newton Republican: Under the
heading, EITHER Crazy or Dishonest"
the Hutchinson News refers editOrially
to an answer in foreclosure case filed in
Harper county, which answer states
that the mortgage company which
made the loan belongs to a bankers
combine" which is operating contrary
to the laws of Kansas and so ought not
to be paid. The only reason for an
answer in foreclosure case is to get
the case into court, and the only reason
for getting it into court is to have it
heard by jury, and the only reason
for having it tried by jury is that, as
Cyrus Corning has so often declared to
the vociferous applause of his hearers,
no jury can be empaneled in Kansas
without having alliance men upon it
and that no alliance man would per-
NIT foreclosure to be made. Debt,
reputation and perjury should come
before foreclosure. This is the doc
trine which the authorized and recog-
nized spokesman of the alliance have
preached throughout Kansas and every
time il, has been met with the widest
demonstrations of approval.
When, however, the News throws
up its hands in surprise and says:
"Who is having this done? Not the
owners of the land" it talks foolishly.
1t Is exactly the owners of the land
the ones who applauded Corning and
the ones to whom the Kansas commits
sioner recommended the services of an
inebriate attorney in accomplishing
this very thing.
1.-The alliance is not endorsing such
work" the News goes on.
We have every reason to believe
that it is, and no reason whatever to
believe that it is not, The News con-
tinues:
"a man who admits that he bor-
roWed S2,OOO, used the money in bis
business, never paid back a cent of
either principal or interest, and then
tries to get out of paying it back on
such pretenses as is set forth in the
answer filed in the case referred to.
is either crazy or dishonest.
Such a man is not crazy. There is
too much method in his seeming mad
ness-the education which has been
given to him is too carefully and too
accurately applied for even the suspi-
cion of insanity to be entertained. The
whole scheme is game of fraud and
dead-beat, out and out. This is what
we have to say when we are not accus-
toned to calling spade an agricultural
implement.

An attempt to pass the ten COM
mandments through the common cOun-
Gil of Cincinnati, recently failed. 1t
appears that in his testimony before a
committee, Deacon Richard Smith OF
the Commercial Gazette testified that
he believed that the ten command
ments could not be passed by TIE COM
mon council without bribery. This
made some of the councilmen angry,
and last week one of them introduced
the ten commandments, and moved
they be passed under the suspension of
the rules. The chairman ruled the
motion out of order, and so tie. COM
mandments remained unpassed.

Gould and the Union Pacific.

The retrenchment which is beng en-
forced on the Union Pacific lines under
their present Gould management may
or may not portend another Gripping
of the service such as was experienced
when the great railroad ogre was at the
head of affairs before. Mr.. Charles
Francis Adams, who has been so ruth
Iessly deposed fromthe.presidency, may
not have been model officer and the
road might have cleared more money
but he gave the people a magnificent
service and conducted the lines in a
way that was eminently satisfactory.
Jay Gould's previous manipulations OF
the Kansas Pacific cleared him 9,0OO,-
900 in cold cash besides what be made
in the alternate depression and citation
of Union Pacific stocks. Is it possible
that he contemplates another reckless
Juggling with the system in order to
reap a personal harvest therefrom? 1t
is not at all unlikely. Wien Mr..
Adams took hold of the road 5 stock
was quoted at %, point whicl it has
never since reached even in the recent
depression in all kinds of securities.
On Saturday night they closed at 46B,
and were noted as weak" hay ing fall
len off several points on accounL of re-
ports as to diminished earnings There
is a possibility that another Iremedi-
tated wreckage scheme is to b. perpe-
trated and the road is to be again by
word and laughing stock.

A Pointer for Kansas Members of the
Alliance.

Topeka Capital The Atlanta Jour-
nal of December /, commenting edi-
torially on the probable action of the
Ocala convention where the seven dele
gates for Kansas are rending the ali
with vociferous demands for third
party, says:
0The Farmers Alliance has absolute
Iy nothing to gain by going into
third party so far as the south is con-
cerned. The southern farmers know
that the great democratic party, which
has so recently swept the country and
which will almost certainly elect the
president in 1892, is the party of the
masses, and from it the farmers can
get all they desire in honest legislation
-'equal rights to all, special privileges
to none.'"

It Points to Victory.

One of the staunch republican papers
of Illinois. the Whitehall Republican,
sizes up the political outlook in this
vivid style: Already the tide is turn
ing. Kansas banks are failing, and
Kansas mortgages are being foreclosed,
because capital fears hostile legislation
there. New railroads and manufac-
turing enterprises are being abandon
ed, because hostile national legislation
Is threatened. In the south the ollgar-
chial system by which few men con-
troll the election machinery and Lulllty
he votes of more than.half the popula-
ton in some of the states, is causing
genuine alarm. The open advocacy OF
free trade, which is but another name
for cheap labor, is causing the labor
ing man to inquire whether The
tendency is not to reduce him to the
condition of serf, and the farmer is
beginning to ask what he IS to do with
his surplus products when the ability
TO purchase is denied to the home con-
sumner. All classes are gradually wax
ing up to the realization of the fact
that if the ideas that we've endorsed on
Nov. 4th should become the policy of
the nation, nothing but distrust, insta-
bility and disaster would follow, and
because they realize this they are re-
newing their allegiance 70 the republi-
can party, and the signs of the times
indicate that in 1892 the republicans
will achieve the most signal victory in

A G. A. E. DISAGREEMENT.

A Topeka dispatch says that Depart
ment Commander Ira F. Collins has
called meeting of the council of ad-
ministration, G. A. R., to be held at
Sabetha December 18th and 10Th. The
principal question to be considered will
be the holding of the next annual en-
campment. In order to accommodate
the people Of Hutchinson, this encamp-
ment was called to meet in May in
stead of in January or February, as
has been customary. Posts all over
the state have been making vigorous
protests, urging that the encampment
be called at the usual time. The reas-
ons offered are two: One is that the
farmers of the state will be unable to
attend a May meeting because they
will be in the midst of their spring
work. The other reason is that such
time of meeting will indefinitely pro-
long the term of the present officers,
and allow the new officers only one
month in which to prepare for the ma
tional encampment.
