PLEASANT CUSTOM.

A pleasant. and profitable, custom is
being practiced In some of our schools,
which is the source of So much good to
the schools In so many ways that de.
sire to call the attention Of other
schools to the same.
1t is the custom of having one school
take holiday and going in body as
a school to some neighboring school,
1t breaks the monOtony of school life,
gives the pupils new ideas as to what
is being accomplished by their neigh
bors, promotes friendly feelings, and
awakens more interest in their own
work. Two weeks ago certain school
board in this county hitched up to
their wagons, drove over to the school
house in the morning, loaded the en-
tire school into the wagons and took
them TO visit a neighboring school 1t
is unnecessary to add that this is one
of the best schools in the county for
such work as that will make any
school a good school and I shall hail
with delight the time when every
school board in the county will follow
that custom, at least once per term.
When the pupils feel that the school
board are interested in their welfare
and work to make good school then
every pupil In the school will feel and
work the same way.

The dependent pension bill was
passed by the Senate on Monday by
the decisive vote of ~ to u. Senator
Plumb tried to have 1t amended 30 az
to allow pensions on account of wounds
or injuries to commence from the
death or discharge of the soldier, but
the amendment was voted down, only
nine Senators, including Plumb and
Ingalls,, voting for 1t. He also moved
an amendment to pay q pension of IS
a month to all who served 80 days in
the late war who are 50 years old or
as they attain that age, but this too
was voted down, 10 Senators voting
yea and 80 nay. The bill then passed
i'm its original form. The action of
Senator Plumb in Offering these
amendments is certainly proof enough,
if any were needed, that he is anxious
to meet the full requirements of his
soldier constituents. And the action
of the Senate In rejecting them by 30
decisive q vote shows that our Senator
correctly estimated the temper of that
body when he gave it as his opinion,
in letters widely published, that ser.
vice pension bill could rot be passed
this year. He has certainly done
everything in his power to secure the
passage of such bill and should be
given the credit to which he is entitled.

Fredonia Citizen: The best friend
the farmers and people generally OF
Kansas have is the Republican party.
1t never whines nor walls in affecta.
ton of sympathy for the unfortunate
or oppressed, but promptly proceeds in
a practical way to right wrongs and to
ameliorate unfavorable conditions SO
far as may be possible. 1t is not the
demagogical Jeremiahs of varying
politics that are the real anG useful
friends of the masses. The Republi.
can party embraces within its mem.
bership more of the spirit of justice,
humanity, courage and progress than
any other political organization in this
couDtry, and in Kansas it has never
been Indifferent to the welfare of the
people. 1t will do all that can be done
for the substantial interests and pros.
perity of the farming population, tor
the farmers compose Its best and most
faithful adherents and possess the
power to enforce their will through the
party.

In this cry of hard times it is anus
ing to listen to business men as they
talk of the mortgage ridden farmer"
when the truth is that other classes
suffer as much and are no less embar.
raised than farmers. We do not be-
lieve that measured by the extent and
value of their business the farmers
owe any more than what are termed
business men, merchants, manufac-
tu-ers and dealers. All classes who
have used their credit have abused it,
and are just now taking the back
track.-Fdrnaer's Friend.
With all OF which we most potently
and powerfully agree. But you want
to be careful, dear boy, or somebody
will be calling you the Farmers
Enemy, for making the assertion that
merchants, manufacturers and deal.
ers" have suffered from hard times as
well as farmers. This paper made
such an assertion once and got hor-
rible tongue-lashing for it.

ALsrrER FROM nR. FUNSTON.

In another place we reprint, from
the Paola Republican, an explanation
of the bill introduced by Mr.. Funston,
creating a commission to inquire into
the causes of the existing agricultural
depression There has been consider.
able misrepresentation as to the scope
and purpose of this measure and q
great many people who were disposed
to criticise it as mere bunconbe, will
change their opinion, we believe,
when they understand its true purport
As supplementary to this article we
are glad to be able to publish also a
letter from Mr.. Funston on the same
subject. 1t is personal letter, written
to friend in lola in reply to a crit
icism of his bill. And while it was
not intended for publication it states
the case 80 clearly that We have OBJ
tanned the consent of Mr.. Funston and
the gentleman to whom it was ad-
dressed to have it made pnblic. 1t is
as follows:
Your kind favor of the 9Th inst. is
before me. in which you ask me If the
members of congress do not already
know the condition of the farmers
without appointing committee to in.
vestigate. I answer, Yes; they do.
But there are almost as many different
opinions as to the cause of the present
distress of the farmers and the differ.
ent remedies to be applied as there are
members of Congress. Some say it is
the "trusts;" others, dealing in fu-
tures;" others, railroads. others,
contraction of currency" others.
"over-production," and others that
s.the farmers have allowed themselves
to be run down and captured by money
loaners," and 30 forth without end.
Now, my opinion is that commits
sion of men such as the head OF the
National Grange and the heads OF the
F. NJ. B. A. and Farmers Alliance,
with a fair per cent of first class at.
torneys and business men, with power
to subpoena witnesses, where such
could be done and where 1t may be
necessary to do 80 and to carry out all
the provisions of my bill, would bring
the whole matter to focus and show
us Just where the trouble lies, and the
remedies would suggest themselves.
AS matters stand to-day, there is not
to my knowledge Outside of the brief
work of the Senate committee at Kan
sas City last sunimer) single fact
which any one can assert to be fact
touching the vital parts of the great
and perplexing question. We have
nothing but rumors and no two Of
them agree.
I hear it said every day that the in.
terstate railroad law was enacted on
rumor and that the result is the West
ern farmers have been shut out Of
Eastern markets. If this be true
don't you think it would have been
better to have had a commission to
investigate first? My bill limits the
time to ninety days. Congress will te
in session, in my opinion. six months.
do not want to dodge the question as
you intimate, but I want to go into it
with known facts on my side. l
should like tO'discuss the matter with
you further, but 1 have not the time
now.
With thanks for your kind letter,
am E. II. FUNSTON.
