Some of our exchanges are now tell

heard to say, before he left Washing

decline to be candidate.

Probably the thrifty farmer gets

garding the better taking care of farm
machinery, but really it would be as
sensible tc throw few bushels of corn

as it is to use costly machinery the
way many Kansas farmers do.
An organized movement has been
started in this city TO secure the

The prospects are very flatterIng for
securing this gathering in this city,
and as most of the enterprising men

movement, there is little doubt but
that it will be held here. Probably

The Farm, Stock and Home say
.sMr. McKinley's idea of tariff reform
is to reduce the revenues by imposing
prohibitive duties on long list of arti-
cles which are now freely imported.
This would, of course, tickle manufac-
turers most to death, but how about
the rest of us? But fortunately Mr..
Mckinley is not Congress. But un-
fortunately Mr.. Mckinley is backed
by a party majority in Congress that
| has SO far shown absolute submission
to the rule of King Caucus, and the
dictates of party leaders of which Mr..
Mckinley is one.
The locoal newspaper should be read
| in every home. No children will grow
up ignorant who can be taught to ap-
preciate the heme paper. 1t is the
stepping stone of intelligence in all
those matters not to be learned in
books. Give your children a foreign
paper which contains not one word
about any person, place or thing which
| they ever saw or perhaps heard of, and
how can you expect them to be inter-
ested? But let them have the home
paper and read of persons whom they
meet, and of places which they are
familiar, and an interest Is awakened
which increases with every weekly
arrival of the local paper. Thus a
habit of reading is formed and those
children will read the paper all their
lives and become intelligent men and
Women.-Ex.

The political shysters in Congress
from some of our agricultural districts
are just now exerting themselves in
wasting their sympathies on the farmer
on account of his pitiable condition,
and some of our agricultural papers
that ought to see farther into mill
stone than they do, are lauding them
to the skies therefor, forgetting that
these taffy dispensers are merely set
ting their sails to catch the political
breezes that will blow in the near by
and by. The most of these old wind
bags are men who have been in Con-
1reSS for MANY wears and have done
