Our amusing contemporary, the Evening
Express, accuses the PRESS of attempting tt
'procusteaDize" Republicans to Its own mar
row bed. Now this is most horrible accu
sation. PrOcnstes, 1t will be remembered
was a celebrated highwayman of Attica
who tied his victims ON an iron bed, and, as
the case required, either stretched out or cut
off their legs to adapt them to its length. So
far as we can remember we have tied no Re-
publicans TO an iron bed, certainly we have
not stretched or c1t off their legs. We sup
pose If our contemporary were pressed to
give an instance of this alleged leg stretch
ing or leg cutting 1t would explain that il
didn't know what procusteanizing meant,
an explanation which, no doubt, would be
strictly true.

Kansas is getting ready to reenact her pro.
hibitory law at the next session of her Iegis.
lature. The Republican State Central com.
mittee of Kansas has issued to the people of
that State an address which says: I'VE are
today confronted by decision of the Circuit
court of the United States for the District of
Kansas that destroys every vestige of our
legislation for the suppression of rum.holes
and the control of the liquor traffic. This
court decides that our prohibitory legislation,
having been enacted before the passage of
the so-called Wilson bill, is unconstitutional
and void. The practical effect of the decis-
ion Is to allow original package whiskey
saloons to be opened 10 every locality In
the State absolved from all legal control, and
to be boldly run without any interference
from the local officers of the State. In view
OF this decision, it behooves the temperance
men of the State and every earnest and loyal
Republican to go to the polls on the day of
election and vote and work for the election
Of candidates for the House of Representa-
tlyes In your respective districts who will
promptly, on the converting of the next SEES
sion, re-enact, word for word and line for
line, every provision of our legislation pro-
hibiting the manufacture, sale and use of
intoxicating liquors, and for the election of
Governor who will approve it. This is the
vital. oyerpowering issue of the campaign.
The Republican State convention SO de-
clared and now the Federal Judiciary has
demonstrated" In view of the seriousness
of the situation even the Third Party candi-
dates are acting reasonably, and are with
drawing in behalf of the Republican candi-
dates. The Republicans of Kansas are TAX
ing the safe course. If they re-enact their
law they win be safe. II they do not they
take chances. II is difficult, moreover. to
see in what respect Maine is situated differ

There is much delightful fighting all along
the political line this fall; but the contest
with Tammany Hallin New York city yields
to none In interest. By its compact and Sc

and criminal classes Of New York city are

proved that ambitious candidates for lucra-
tive appointments within the gift Of the
mayor, have bestowed upon his little daugh-
ter Flossie. girl six or seven years of age,
gifts amounting to five thousand dollars In
cash at time. And Mayor Grant has testi-
fed that he ''took charge of" these princely
gifts to Flossie. These scandalous proceed
ings are only little of the mass of political
corruption fastened upon the city by Tam
many. The decent people Of New York
have at last become thoroughly aroused.
The Republicans and those Democrats not
belonging to Tammany Hall. and called
County Democrats. have utited on a ticket:
