If the temperance people of Barber

fall to the peoples party ticket, they
had as we'll stop talking of enforcing

support.

The Kansas City Star, after reading
the INDEX locals, manages to make
the following blunder: IN. B. Blan-
ton, after whom 'BlantOn's BRIDGE
famous in early Kansas annals, was

Our advertisers are coming to the
front again this week. Harmon occu-
pies his corner of the INDEX as usual,
and always has something to say that
IS of interest to everybody who buys or
sells anything. Harmon is a liberal ad-
vertiser, and liberal dealer in every
respect.
The Pratt Union says that Pratt will
duplicate the Medicine Lodge sugar
works when the industry is in a state
of perfection. We advise Pratt to go

sugar to ton of cane is equal to Louis
lana sugar cane product. 1t is well
proven that this amount can be made.
IfGordon and Eby should be placed
on the republican ticket, does anybody
suppose they would get the solid repub-

pose that such a combination would
deliver a solid democratic vote to Dob

can? Verify, some people haye short
memories.
There has been some kicking by jurors
in regard to then allowances being cut
down. Mr.. Reagln was in favor of al
lowing jurors pay for services as they
have been allowed heretofore, especial
ly as they held certificates from the dis
trict clerk. He thought that as it had
always been the custom, it would hard
ly be far to stop it without any warn
ing, but that ruling should be made
settling the matter definitely. Mr..
Reagin was Ill the minority, and had
to submit.
l.. NJ. Axline, in half column of
bluff. last week, accepted the challenge

political meat" for about three hours.
He will earn his So. We extend our
sympathy to Mr.. Axline in advance
Newspaper men are not generally pub
lie speakers, though they may be ever
so well posted on any subject. Allen
is little, bnt he is rooster. AS the
INDEX does not enjoy one-sided cruel
ty, we will take back seat at the court
house to morrow night.
