and the next one will be due 70 leave
the Pacific coast about the 18th, cross
the Rocky-Alegheny valley from the
18th 10 2lst, and reach the Atlantic
coast about the I'D. The important
feature Of this storm wave will be the
Inauguration OF the last general rain
period that Will occur during the 1891
crop season. OF course II will not cause
ram IN every county IN the United
States, but the rains will he somewhat

and u number or those destructive ram
falls, popularity called cloudeursts, may

t.nue at intervals Till the close OF the
month. Deficiencies OF rainfall will
probably occur IN those counties TIA:
are both near the sea level and near the
seaeoast. As stated in my Letters year
ago, the Influences will continue To carry
the heavy rsinfalls inland away from
the seac0asts and 10 the more eleva-
ted lands. Tornadoes may be expected
from this storm wave as IL crosses the
VI ssissippi valley, and altogether II Will
be OF more than usual severity. The
rain period inaugurated by this storm
wave will largely determine what the
corn crop of 1891 Is To be, and It's infiu-
enee on the cotton crop will be only a
little less extensive, for where the ram
period fails To give the necessary mois-
lure, will be in great danger of droutil

that 1891 would bring a large general
crop because great storm years are al
most always great crop years. Local
damages TO crops occur from destruct-
i've storms and local drouths. but these
will affect comparatively small areas
this year and will not greatly reduce
the crop products Later events may
have a material influence on the crop
Of cotton.

This term Is misnomer. There is no

Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1891-10-24

well as fair! Was it not your idea
to conceal the Pilot from our eaze
so that you might have an opportu-
nifty to say: w knew it wouldn't
be noticed We told you so,'?i
Again: Ii you meant to be fair.
why did you select a few isolated
passages from our editorial and
make your comments thereon? It
is rule Of evidence in all courts
that the adverse party is entitled to
the entire document. This rule is
founded On common fairness. Why
didn't you observe it before intima.
ting that we would be unfairp
But we are willing to waive all
these delinquencies on your part
and take the charitable view that
they were only the result Of
thoughtlessness, and we assure you
that we will publish a portion, at
least, of your side before the CAM
paign closes. Would cheerfully
publish it all if we could find room.
We advise republicans to read
alliance doctrine and do not advise
them to boycott opposition papers
as your acknowledged leaders in
this and other COUNTIES do. There
is nothing in your article that
could possibly hurt anybody but
Yourselves
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1891-10-24

AN ELEEMosYNARY half sheet,
called the Alliance Pilot was circu-
lated in our city last week. At the
top of the first column, on the first
page, we find the following:
Below is an article from the Wa
Keeney WORLD on the Alliance, pub
lished in the large type. and to discuss it
by sections we give you the other side
set in the small type. Can the WORLD
be as fair and let its readers see both
sides?"
As a bit of quiet humor, the
above is condensed gem; as a
specimen of sarcasm or irony, it is
fair; as a serious statement, it is an
exhibition of the most colossal,
adamantine cheek that we have ever
encountered. "There is but a step
from the sublime to the ridiculous"
and, were it not for what follows,
we should be inclined to reflect upon
the ridiculous side only.
We always admire. in fact vener-
ate, fairness. It is the supreme.
primary plank of our platform. But
why did you not favor us with a
copy of the Pilots We were CON-
PEELED to chase all over town to pro-
cure one, and in cur search was iu-
formed by a member Of the alliance
that ''the WORLD would not be able
to see copy" Is it possible that
you would have charged us in your
next issue with being too unfair to
publish your article while at the
came time endeavoring to conceal it
from us? Is this your idea of fair
ness? Is this your idea Of ne~s
paper courtesy? Did you really ex-|
pect or hope that It would be mo-
ticeds come now, Be honest =
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1891-10-24

THE Free Press supplement says:
Let us give the town a fair share,
but let the farmers have a say. We
are glad that this matter has been
thus publicly alluded to for the rea-
son that we might have forgotten
it. The intention was evidently to
create the impression without say
ing SO that the farmers have not
been treated fairly. Let us see how
much there is in it for we have
always contended that the farmer
should have fair share and we
wont 60 back on that proposition
now. Last year the head of the
republican ticket was farmer; the
candidate for superintendent of
public instruction was q farmer;
candidates for commissioner in both
districts were farmers the candi-
date for probate judge was a farmer.
Was that fair? Year before the
candidate for sheriff, register of
deeds aud commissioner were farmers
and The treasurer and county super
iDtendent, holding over, were both
