LOWERING RECORDS.

There was considerable rejoicing in this
city Thursday night over the performance of
Stamboul at Stockton in lowering his tTOt-
ting record. His failure and the failure OF
Sunol to lower their respective records last
week were the cause OF much disappoint-
msnt IL was thought that Sunol with a
year added to her age ought 10 have done
: better than she did. a correspondent of
THE CALL thinks that Sunol has not been
driven with due regard to her sensibiIities,
She is remarkably intelligent animal and
may be presumed to have other feelings than
those of the, flesh. 1t was observed both
Friday and Saturday of last week that when
her driver began to whip her she slackened
her pace. The hemestretch was the slowest
part of her mile. This fact has raised the
question if without showing temper the in
teiligent mare did not resent the use of the
whip. 1t is also reasonable to assume that
the contraction of muscles which follows a
blow may impair the ability OF racer to do
the very best that might be done.

OPPOSING INTERESTS.

The importers of New York. it is said, do
not like protection. OF course, with de-
crease of imports from foreign countries the
business Of the class of merchants named
would be reduced. Manifestly, importing
merchants do not like protection of home
industries. There is large class of persons
in New York which depends almost entirely
upon iml orts for livelihood. Importing
merchants and large number OF bankers
constitute wealthy body of men. The
persons controlled by such interests should
be expected to vote for any party
which favors free trade. Railroads are an
other interest which profit from free trade

An Alliance ReSentS Ives.

White Eagle Alliance: near Smith
Center, in Smith county, has come to
the conclusion that the men who ma.
nipulate the peoples convention in
such way as to climb the fence on
prohibition, and yet nominate for the
all important office of attorney gener-
al rampant democratic resubmission-
list, deserves the cordial condemnation
of every honest farmer in Kansas;
and in words that indicate that this
sub-alliance at least is still master of
its own political action, it expressed
its sentiments by the following resolu.
tions:
WHERDAs, As John N. Ives was nOml-
mated by the peoples party state conven-
tiOn for attorney general; and
WHEREAS. The said convention decid-
ed that neither prohibition nor resubmis-
sion is an issue at the present time; and
WHEREAS. The peoples party has re-
peatedly decided to support no man for
office who seeks or accepts q nomination
from either of the old parties; and
WHEREAS. That John n Ives has since
sought and accepted nomination on the
democratic and resubmission ticket for
the same office, thereby repudiating the
acts of the peoples party: therefore be it
Resolved, That we protest against the
action of said ,InO n Ives and ask his
withdrawal from the state ticket.
Resolved, That copy Of the resolu-
tiOns be sent to the Smith City JOurna.
and also to the BaZoO, and one to the
Topeka Advocate for publication.

These resolutions were adopted on

peka Advocate has had two opportu-

A Home Endorsement.

The Star and Kansan, democratic
paper published at independence,
Gov. Humphreys home, makes the
following editorial allusion, which
certain democratic and resubmlssiou
scandal mongers might read with
profit. 1t says:
1t is foolish for Humphreys opponents
10 attempt to prove that he is addicted to
the intemperate use of intoxicants, as it
is for the republicans to prove that he
never was connected with bank. We
are as anxious to see Humphrey defeated
as anybody; but We fail to see how that
can be done by retailing anv such non
sensical stuff as the foregoing. During
the ten years we have known of him, his
life has been that of an upright. moral
citizen. and he is respected and esteemed
as such here where he has lived since the
first white settlement The only thing
we know that is bad about him is his
politics. They are horrible.

tloa purposes for the year 1890, is as
stated above, $57, ,866, ,232.57, and this
makes the assessed value more than
SO per cent of the total valuation,and
we doubt if the other property OF the
state is assessed at 33 per cent OF Its
true value.
There are 8,720 miles of railroad
Constructed and operated in the state,
and it's actual cost of construction, in
GLIDING rolling stock and all other
equipment to this date, is q little less
thaa $40, 900 per mile, making total
of $l65, 734, ,361.2S. This does not
represent either the value of the stock
or the earning capacity of the various
lines, but it is the actual cost of con-
straotion and equipment as gathered
from various sources. OF course,
railroads have not a commercial or
market value as other property has.
If Mr.. Willis does not know any
thing more about state affairs than he
does about the taxation of railroads,
he had better be sent to the district
school for q term rather than be pos
ing as candidate for governor. And
now that Willis has called the atten-
ton of the public to this matter, We
embrace the opportunit! to congratu-
late the people of this state on the
fact that they have state officers who
do their whole duty to the people, and
who are not influenced by railroad
corporations.

Another FalSehOOd Refuted,

Would-be governor Willis, in his
speech the other day at Mcpherson,
made this statement: THAT the rail
roads OF this state are assessed for
taxation at only s per cent of their
value,whi!e other property is assessed
at from 80 to 40 per Cent" As Will
Its is riding about the state on q free
railroad pass, he ought not to make
such statements. His object, we sup
pose, was more to misrepresent the
republican state officers who act as a
board of state railroad assessors, than
to injure the property of the gentle
men who furnish him free transporta-
ton.
Now the following table, compiled
from official sources, will show how
far he fell short of the truth when he
made such a reckless assertion:

people have not had their eyes shut to
the efficient manner in which he has
conducted the duties of probate Judge.
1t has been without fear and trem-
bling and in the interest of those who
had been wronged. As to his ability
we need only to say that W. Il. Moore
expert rtexaminer of the county books
says that Judge j. E. Lesh is the
first probate judge in Kansas whom
he has found that keeps balance
statement of the accounts in the coun-
ty treasurer and county clerks books.
He examines them every three months
and the result he retains by a balance
sheet which is check against those
offices. Mr.. Moore has been in doz-
ems of couLties and among them the
populated districts of the eastern
part of the state and in none of them
did he find the probate Judge keeping
balance sheets. This is a high CON-
pliment to Judge Lesh and the people
should and will appreciate an honest
county official. Judge Lesh is a
member of East View Lodg. in the
Farmers Alliance and an earnest sup
porter of their principles in so far as
they do not interfere with politics.
Being hard tiller of soil for years
he appreciates the fact that the farm
ers needs a union of friendship and
that far gives 1T his aid. He is one

this union and the old soldiers will
