The Hutchinson Nelcs, commenting
on an interview Of the Omaha Bee
with Dr. f. Willings Of Wichita in
which the doctor gives rather a
gloomy picture of the peerless prin-
cess" has this TO say:
Yes, prohibition has ruined Wichita. Drove
out ten thousand people and left thousand
empty houses But with the city "llterally
swarming with holes In the wall and Joints" IL
would not seem that prohibition was taking
much hand In the affair. In fact would II not be
better for the loQuacous doctor 10 state that
high license for that Is what II amounts TO at 800
per month, has been driving out that ten thou
sand people2 The doctor told too much.
Has not the Hutchinson NetCs also
'told too much?' Who licenses this
business in the city Of WiChita7 Gov
ernor Humphreys metropolitan po-
lice commissioners, of course. And
yet the Ne,cs has been telling us that
the opposition to Attorney General
Kellogg is because he is enforcing

DID HR TELL THE TRUTHi

county chlleu hJ the peOpleS parry
headquarters on the evening OF the
10th inst, and in his conversation
gave expression to the lofty moral
sentiments that actuate the republi-
can party in It's conduct Of a political
campaign. He re-aflirmed the cor
rectness of the Ingalls, code Of ethics,
but thought Senator lngall was per-
haps little indiscreet in thus pub
licly stating the facts. He stated
that whatever might be said by senti-
mentalists of the decalogue ard
golden rule in politics they were ig-
nored in the practice OF all political
parties; and that he considered any
means legitimate that would insure
success, He believed in lying and in
deceiving the people, and said that it
was practiced by all political parties,
He further stated that personally
he had lost all confidence in human
nature that he believed all men
were knaves and nine-tenths Of the
women harlots. Such ls the picture
drawn by one of the men who repre-
sented himself as a member Of the
republican central committee. He
said that his name was Parks and
that he was engaged in the real estate
business and loaning money in Wash
ington county. He made these state
ments in the presence Of three wit
nesses, and repeated the one in rela-
tion to women before two others who
came in later.
This is the character of the men
who are conducting the republican
campaign, and the means they en-
ploy show their handiwork. To lie,
to deceive, to hire Hessions, to pur-
chase mercenaries, to commit forgery,
to use dynymite-all are legitimate
if they promise success. This is no
idle tale, Three good men will make
affidavit if necessary to the truth of
all Of The statements here attributed
to this representative of the republi-
can party, and five will make affidavit
to the one relating to women. Farm
ers Of Washington county, what kind
Of reputation does this man bear at
home? He says he has lived there
for many years and is we'll acquainted
in the county.
We leave our readers to draw their
own inferences and to govern them
selves accordingly. Extended com
ment is unnecessary.
How much reliance is TO be placed
In the calumnies of party managers
who thus publicly declare the meth
ods they deem legitimate to employ
in political campaign? In view Of
such statements and the practices of
the party this man represents, how
should honest men vote on the 4th
day Of November? We rely upon
honest men to support our ticket, but
if they are as scarce as this republi-
can committeeman represents them
to be the peoples party will get left.
Did he tell the truth?

The Oskaloosa Independent makes
a correction in its comment upon Mr..
Willis reCord(7) as published in it's
former issue, and now says that the
appraisers fees were six dollars in
stead of $10O. Our criticism was
based on the first figures given and
was run on the first side of our paper
We give the Independent the benefit
Of the correction. The error is
charged to a sleepy type.setter."
The amount cuts no figure in
the case except as to the size of the
lie. 1t would be much to the credit
Of the editor if he could truthfully
attribute the whole falsehood to a
sleepy type-setter."

ANOTHER BRILLIANT sOHEMR.

IL now appears that the nomination
Of Tully Scott by bogus democratic
convention in the Sixth Congressional
district is a scheme ConcoCted by re-
publican managers in the city of
Washington and that the republican
party is footing the bills Of his cam
paign. Becoming alarmed at the
popularity Of Mr.. Baker and the
diminishing chances of Web MCNall
this scheme was devised as the only
one that offered any hope of success
to the republican ticket. We heard
this some time ago but the informR-
tion was not based on sufficient au-
thority to warrant it's publication.
We can say now, however, that we
have the matter straight and from
reliable sources. Voters Of the Sixth
