WHAT THE PAPERS sAY.

great shape.-Wichita Eagle.
The tariff and the silver issue win
do good work for the republicans In
Iowa as well as Ohio. The Hawkeye
republicans are keeping these two ques-
tions squarely before the people.

President Harrisou's wise and cour-
] ageous words against free silver have
braced up tens Of thousands Of demo-
Gratis. Even Roger Q. Mills BOW pre-
tends to be an honest money man.

From the flat-footed manner in which
the Massachusetts, democracy hsS an
| tagonized the party in the rest of the
country, it would look as if the Bay
state leaders were ready for 3 split IN
the ranks.-K. G. Journal.
Jerry Simpson says he will net de-
bate with every id fool who wants q
little newspaper notoriety. Jerry UNI
derstands what he is about. He wante

no one share it with him.-K. G. Jour.

AS Mckinley is the author of the
present tariff, his defeat would give
| greater triumph to the democracy than
the defeat of any otLer republican noIa

| his plurality will be somewhere about
| 20, ,000.-Globe- Democrat.
Governor Hill is talking for the New
| York state ticket, just as every sensible
person knew he would. None but the
political marines were deluded by tue
tale that the ticket didn't suit him. Hp
made it, and, OF course, he is, satisfied
with it. Globe Democrat
| R. Q. Mills is telling the farmers tha$
their condition never in the past was %
bad as it is now. when they know that
| the opposite is the case. There always
has been an irrepressible conflict be-
tween Roger and the truth in ecouorHie
and political matters.-Exchange

lie, knows how it is himself. He 70

The New York Commercial AdSsr,
tisef gets down to truth when ft says
"Now it is declared that Mr.. Flower is
to blame for the loss of the fair de
salked politics about it at WashingtoA,
while the republicans were struggling
to keep politics out Of it at Albany" :.
The trade writers IN the democratis
papers show that prices OF the necessar
ries OF life, on the average, are lower
than they were year ago, before the
new tariff went into operation, but the
political writers of those journals apps-
reutly have not yet. got on to- THAI

Colonel Polk Saws that the slliancs
gill pay no attention to the contest fcr
governor of Ohio, but will continue IL
efforts downing Sherman. Shernsf
has committed the objectionable sin q
holding that piece OF fiat money is no
more a dollar than bill of fare is q
square meal.-Wichita Eagle.
The New York mugwump Times and
democratic Tammany organs are al
failing TO reproduce the contenpSthis
things they said of Flower four years
ago, when they openly said nothing bux

public" " true four years ago this, 10
rue now.-Inter Ocean.
Mr.. Mills might have sat down al
home and twirled his fingers without
harm to the democratic cause: His go
ing to Ohio has not changed theif
chances a bit. Their cause was loSs
when he went there, and it has not ad-
vanced one step out OF the woods since
then.-K. G. Journal.
PETER is now fairly on the defensiys.-
The main object of his speeches Is to
show that he has been grossly misrep-
resented by the democratic and republi-
can press. The more time ne deyOtes
TO vindicating himself the less he viii
have for slandcring and misrepresent-
ing kansas.-K. G. Star
.'Who killed the fair?" shouts an ex-
cited grumbler in the New York Sun.
Well, it is about the liveliest thing Just
now on two continents, and can answer
for itself. New Workers can 90 right
along committing suicide and holding
post mortems, but the great fair will 90
right along with its preparations.-In-

Governor Hill lately argued in cam
paign speech for the reduction of the
legai rate of interest from 6 to ) per
cent. Last winter, with other Wall
street bankers, Nominee Flower went to
Albany to oppose such an onslaught on
the impoverished capitalist The way
the democracy is getting together Is al
solutely cenvulsive.-InterO Ocean.
Cornered on facts. split on the silver
issue, and fearing to come out plainly
on the tariff in the face of the prosperi-
ty which the Mckinley bill has brought
the people, the Democrats of Ohio have
been obliged to resort to campaign of
misrepresentation and calumny. 1t will
do them no good. Truth will win in
! Ohio this fall. The farmers are with

The refusal of Jerry Simpson TO meet
+. X. Dawes of Clay Center on the
stump, because OF the obscurity of the
latter, Is truly refreshing. Dawes has
not been to congress. and has never fig-
ured as national bufoon. but he, wss
known all over Kansas, from Kansas

Flowers crest represents crow pas
