disreputable business, even IL q CRIME
has been committed in this case, TO
add to the natural grief and humilia-
tion Of the parents by any insinua-
tion that il was result of parental
neglect. Such insinuations from any
source merit the utmost contempt Of
all decent people. The probable
facts in this case, however, are that
no wrong was contemplated. The
most reliable reports fully justify
this conclusion. It was simply a
''boy trick" with no evil intent. The
unprincipled partisan spirit Of Re-
publican politicians, however, saw in
il an opportunity to perpetrate
another forgery, and they knew
they had in the Capital most will
ling tool for it's publication; and
hence the tale was started on it's mis-
sion, with a view of reAecting upon
the character and integrity, not Of
the boy, bit Of his mother. Why?
Simply because she dares to speak in
the interest Of the rapidly rising
party before whose onward march
these political charlstans must go
down. The spirit exhibited in CHS
case is a manifestation Of deprayity
that would not need to stoop to per-
petrate any infamy.

cent victims might perish in Conse-
quence Of his contempt Of law. Laws
are not made for such as Mr.. Depew.
Had some poor switchman or brake
man, without money or the kind of
friends who are exempt from the
operations of law, been responsible
for the calamity for which Mr. De-
pew was indicted, he would have
been convicted and subjected to the
full limit of punishment provided by
the statute. Against Mr.. Depew,
however, il was found there was no
cause of action. Nobody was respon-
sible for the murder of the victims Of
his cupidity. There is evidently need
Of a revolution in public sentiment
upon this as well as many other ques-
tions. Until those through whose
negligence or disregard of law, men,
women and children are murdered
by railroad companies, can be held
responsible for their acts regardless
of their wealth or position, the trav-
cling public will never be secure from
unnecessary peril. This is one Of the
problems Of the impending revolu-
tion, and it will unquestionable be
solved

1T WORKS ONLY ONE WAY.
lusCrlal Free Press.

From the Industrial Free Press.
Why is It that our opponents are de-
nouncing the sub-treasury plan as class
legislation and never once refer to their
own acts? Here ls an instance far worse
than any sub treasury plan. In large
city the mail is delivered free to its citi-
zsns by uniformed government employees,
while the farmer, after his hard days
work is done, has to ride one Of his tired
horses to the city to get his mail
and never grumbles about the
free delivery system being class legis-
lation; and TO see what an army
Of employees it creates, and no fears Of
them are entertained. The postoflice
business is the farmers business, as it
is any other class, and he has got just as
much right to demand free delivery Of
his mail as his city brother. The fact is
that our Congressman have always been
ready to give the large cities anything
they asked, but when 1t comes to giving
the farmer anything, 1t Immediately be-
comes class legislation.

ANOTHER CALAMITY LIE.

"The Topeka Capitals mortgage reports are
not worth the blank paper they are written on.
They are made up in the Capital office without
data of any kind except that furnished by the
inventive genius OF the editor, whose chief talent
lies In that direction. ~ Yesterdays Advocate.
The mortgage reports hurt, don't they? The
truth stings. Your miserable, lying calamity
screechers can't stand up against the facts, and
the Capital proposes TO fire them at you until
you baWl for mercy. We are glad to see the
simple truth rattle you so badly. 1t seems to
have the same effect as the sight Of water has on
mad dog. And II the reports for the spring
months demorslize calamity so desperately,
what will become Of 1t next fall when the returns
come In for wheat corn, oats and hay?
The Capitals mortgage reports come directly
from the registers Of deeds. Write to any Of
them, from whose county report has been pub
lIshed, and publish his reply, If you have any

A WORD OF ADVICE no YOUNG LEASE

Read the article on another page, entitled,
"High School and ArbOr Day" 1t lS the address
of the son Of Mrs. Lease, who was charged by
the Capital with stealing watCh.-Alidncc
Tribune.
The Capital made no charges whatever against
young Lease This paper and other daily pa
pers in Kansas simply published a dispatch stat
ing that young Lease had been ARRESTED on a
charge OF stealing" q statement which was cor
rect. In his defense before magistrate, ac-
cording to our exchanges, the boy stated that he
had run off with coat, containing the watch,
az practical joke on the owner. This defense
was deemed sufficient, and he was allowed to 20
free. 1t would be lesson TO young Lease not
TO play practical Jokes with other peoples
property. We urge this lesson upon him. lnas-
much as his mother, who ought to be home tax
Ing care Of him and keeping him out OF mischief,
is traipSlng around the state at the expense Of
the farmers, bswllng calamity Capital Julv IL.
The above simply adds to the con-
temptible iniquity of the former pub
lication. There is not word of
truth in this statement. Young
Lease was not arrested on q charge
Of stealing" He therefore had no
defense to make before the magis-
trate. He did not state "that he had
run off with the coat as a practical
Joke on the owner" He had nothing
whatever to do with the affair. Every
paper making any claims to decency
has already corrected the statements
made in reference to him. The boy
who was really guilty of the act Of
which young Lease is charged, is the
son of a leading Republican Of
Wichita, whose father and mother
are both at home to look after his
morals. The ADVOCATE does not re-
fer to this in order to attach any
blame to his parents for neglect of
parental duty, but simply to show
that if politics have anything to do
with the case, the shoe is on the
other foot than the one where the
Capital would place it. In reality,
however, if any crime was intended
to be committed at all, (which is de-
cidedly doubtful) the parents Of the
boy are probably in no way to blame
for it. There are many wild boys in
every city, who have most exemplary
and worthy parents, whose hearts are
many times sorely panied in conse-
quence Of the acts Of their children;

THE STATE UNIVERSITY AGAIN.


In another column will be found q
second communication respecting
Mr.. Depew's invitation to deliver an
address at the commencement exer-
cises of the state university. Before
offering any comment upon the COM
munication we desire to notice briefly
the criticisms of The ADVOCATE be-
cause of it's publication of Mr.. Glenn
ems article.
We are we'll aware that it is not in
accord with the policy of a certain
class of journals to publish anything
not precisely in harmony with their
own views, and especially anything
that assails the idols of these wor-
shippers of modern Molochs. While
The ADVOCATE exists, however, all
sides shall have hearing. We do
not hold ourselves responsible for the
views of correspondents, and we re-
serve the right of criticism, but to re-
fuse the publication of correspond
ence solely because we do not sp-
prove of It's every sentiment is a de-
nial of the most sacred right Of an
American citizen-the right of free
speech. Only towards fear this, and
The ADVOCATE does not belong to that
crowd.
The writer of the present article
thinks The ADVOCATE failed to catch
the principal point Of Mr.. Clemens
article. The ADVOCATE thinks Mr..
Clemens made his own points, and
nothing said in the criticism could
obscure them. He stated his views
without reservation, and Mrs. Diggs,
who wrote the criticism, stated hers.
The people read both, and we do not
see that any one has any reason to
complain.

the orders of the court" 1t was not

BIG BRICK BLOCKS.
More Of Them Being Planned For BY
and BY.


On the west side Of Spring street half
way between Second and Third a fine
brick block is being finished. Nearly
opposite the cellar is about excavated
for another that will cost $25, 900. This
is AL Workman's enterprise. On the
east siie OF Spring street, just south OF
the Wilson block at the corner OF First
street, the occupants are getting ready
to move from the row OF old rookeries
there. The owner, Mr.. Summer, is
getting ready to put up a:brick block at
once. The frontage is go feet, and the
block will run back to Mott alley, over
100 feet. The probable cost will be
about $35 900 to $40, 1000.
The Larronde property on the same
side of Spring street. north Of First,
where the Brunswick saloon is, will prob
ably be we'll improved during the com
ing summer.
Besides these there are number OF
other blocks abont to be put up. The
idea is this: The cost of building just
now is very low. The block AL. Work
man is putting up for $25, 900 would have
cost $4,000 or more four years ago.
That is two years. rent saved. As most
of these new buildings will be occupied
as soon as built, in part or wholly, there
is no rent lost, and the amount saved in
the cost of construction is all, or nearly
all, net gain. --

THOSE LOST DIAMONDS.
THE DETECTIVE WORK WHICH WAS
REQUIRED TO FIND THEM.
The Ability Shown by Chief of Police
Glass, Who Found the Chinaman After
He Had the Number of His Wagon.

Mr.. Wagner, the jeweler who recov-
cred his lost diamonds, in an interview
in yesterdays HERALD regarding the
work of the police in the matter, takes
occasion to praise the detective ability
OF Chief of Police Glass, which is rather
unfortunate for that excessively talented
officer, as, in view of the cold facts in
the case, it puts him in rather ridicu-
lous position.
Mr.. Ellsworth is in the employ of Mr..
G. j. Duncan, of the silver house in the
Baker block. When Mr.. Wagner lost
the diamonds he SO notified Mr.. Duncan,
as he did all the other jewellers in town,
and Mr.. Duncan in turn told Mr.. Ellis
worth, who resides in the vicinity OF st.
James park.
A day before the diamonds were
found a Chinaman who has peddled
vegetables at Mr.. Ellsworth's for sew
eral months, called and offered to sell q
pretty piece of glass to Mrs. Ellsworth.
She told her husband, who saw that the
man had the lost diamonds but did not
know their value. He took the number
of the peddler's wagon and came down
town Immediately and informed Mr..
Duncan, who posted off at once to Mr..
Wagner's and gave that gentleman the
Chinaman's name and the number of
his wagon, which Mr.. Wagner told to
Chief Glass. After that information
had been obtained any one could have
hunted up the wagon and arrested the
Chinaman, who, by the way, had no
idea OF running away. The detective
ability shown was not greater than that
necessary to know enough to go in out
of the rain in order to keep dry, and for
that Chief Glass is entitled to full credit
and all praise.
