REED succeeded in getting quorum
OF his mob Tuesday ard accomplishing
the infamous rape Of seats from two
democrats, fairly elected, and giving them
n a couple OF negroes, Mr.. Nenable, of
Virginia, having TO give away to Langs-
ton and Elliott, of South Carolina, to
Miller. This about ends the contests
and the bulldozers can now turn their
attention to some other devilment. The
seating OF the negroes takes about Sl0,-
600 each from the treasury and puts it
into their pockets. The sitting members
are, OF course, allowed their salaries to
date.

The talk that is going around about
counting Jerry out should be choked off.
While it is no doubt true, that, from a
legal point of view. Jerry is not entitled
to the democratic vote, it is also true
that he received majority of the votes
cast, and that the people meant to cast
them for him there is no manner of
doubt, and as a majority of the votes
cast represents the will of the people
Jerry undoubtedly has that will, and so
it should be, and $50 mote it be-

Douglas Mainland left this week for
Texas, where he intends spending the

There is not vacant house In Clafin;
something that but few towns In this
part of the country can boast of.
The Claflin school has an enrolment
of forty-two scholars, of which twenty
seven are males and fifteen are females.
the average attendance is thirty FIVE.
Lewis Strothman, who has been
down-i in Oklahoma the past few weeks,

We understand this city has four
genuine dram shops licensed by city
ordinance at $40 per month, which
paid their licenses today. The pre-
sumption is that resubmissiOp not
only carried, but the amendment was
repealed also. Really this late election
keeps surprising us daily. We should
not be surprised to learn that Kansas
has been attached to Missouri for
judicial purposes.-Tribune.
If GREAT BEND ''has four genuine
dram shops' and all that, and the edi-
tor of the Tribune knows it and is all
that he claims to be in the way of an
L. B. Kellogg repub. prohib. why don't
he file information against the places
and@ave his pet law vindicated2 The
fact of the matter is, the republican
party has found out it has used the
prohibitory law about as long as it can
as convenient pretense for holding
power and it is about as willing as any
party to have the matter again sub
p,itted to vote of the people.

The Christians will soon commence a

The prospect is that there will be
more wheat harvested in Kansas next
summer than in the past two years.

WHY Is it that railroads SO seldom
fall out about freight rates on farm pro-
ductsp Palace cars haul thousands OF
people to the sea shore and mountains
every year for next to nothing. A
dozen times year the newspapers
announce reductions of freight and
passenger rates, but very rarely is the
farmer appraised that the rates on grain
have been reduced, and when they are
the cut seldom amounts to much, never
lasts long, and it can generally be
traced to the grain gamblers who occa-
sionally resort to this means to bear the
market and effect reduction of prices.
1t would seem that the losses entailed
by the almost free transportation of
passengers are charged up to. the
farmer, and the rates on his grain are
made high enough to cover the
deficiency. Some day this will all be
changed, and the beginning of the end
seems to be here.

By THE Mckinley bill the duties on
brown and bleached linens are increas-
ed from thirty-five per cent to fifty
and sixty per cent; On cotton and cheap
hosiery from forty to sixty per cent;
on common cheap grades of dress
goods it is increased from sixty eight
to 103 per cent, and on tin plate from
thirty four to seventy four per cent.
Theseiare articles that are used almost
solely by farmers. mechanics, laborers
and poorer classes generally. While
silk goods jewelry and precious stones
remain at the old rate and the duty
on sealskin sacques is reduced; these
last are articles used only by the rich;
the necessities of life have had the
duty increased while the luxuries have
had it decreased, Is this discrimina-
ton or is it downright ROBBERY of the
helpless?- Echo.

If we take it that we must do every
several act of life with the distinct
idea and single purpose of clarifying
God, we do indeed set for ourselves
an impossible task and consequent
ly, one which the Lord never laid up
on any creature.
What the injunction requires of us,
is that we shall try always to act
Alright, 1. e., as we are taught that
God would have us act, and from a
sincere desire to please and honor
him. This should be the habit of our
life, even down to the most trivial
things.
When you use a sour dishclOth with
which to wash dishes, you are not
acting for the glory of God.
When you unduly slight any house
hold duty-and, equally, when you
spend too much time and strength for
things that perish with the using
you are not clarifying him.
No one, however old, poor, or help
less, is there who cannot act all day
long for the glory of God. For, If
able to do anything, he can do his
best and if not able to do anything,
he can bear his affliction we'll. And
who will dare to say that right bear
ing of what crosses every wish and
hope of life is not harder, and more
accepted with God, than our very
best doing?
Let us do all our hand findeth to dc
in a right manner, spending time and
strength on it according to its worth,
and so, seeking his approval, we shall
ever be working (or enduring) to "the
glory of God. IN. Y. Evangelist.
