TOPEKA, Aug, 3.-The agitation with
in the Alliance ranks over the sub-treas-
ury scheme has brought forward opposi-
ton from unexpected sources. Colonel
w. A. Harris of Leavenworth county,
candidate before the Peoples party eau
Gus for United States senator, has written
a long communication opposing the
scheme, and G. w. Shinn, candidate for
lieutenant governor on the peoples ticket
last fall, has come out against it.
President Frank McGrath of the Al
lance does not regard it with favor, and
the prospect for big fight is imminent.
The sub-alliances throughout the state
take action upon it this month, and their
decision will settle the question as to
whether there will be subtreasury plank
in the peoples party platform in this
state. If Kansas repudiates it, o. s. Hall
president of the Missouri Alliance, will
receive a great vindication in the fight
being made upon him by DR.. Macune.
The answer by Colonel Harris is the
ablest which has yet been presented
against the sub-treasury scheme.

ed to be it's week off. In it's hilari-
Gus mood it made the very exagger-
ated statement that the peoples par
ty would carry every county in the
state this fall but Sedgwick and
Shawnee. We don't profess to be
very well posted throughout the
state but we do know that the three
counties next to Wallace on the
east will not be carried by the
peoples party this fall. In other
words western Kansas along the
line of the Union Pacific will not be
in it for the peoples party.

other children were bitten by the

ing made to send the other children

It's a great pity that the dog
hadn't bitten Mrs. Lease first, for in
that event the dog would surely
have died and it would not have
injured the old lady in the slightest.

The Wyoming Legislature has re-
Gently imposed a tax Of So on bach
elors. The only objection we would
make to the law is the smallness of
the same. There ought to be an ex-
ception clause in the constitution
emitting bachelors from the certain
inalienabIe rights" therein guaran-
teed to American citizens. In brief,
the bachelor (from choice ought to
be legislated out of existence-sup-
pressed. What rights are he emit
tied to that other people are bound
to respect? What right has he to
live any way?

SATURDAY, AUG. 8, 1891.

PETER continues to assert IN his
calamity speeches that there are
100000 mortgaged homes in the
United States, while the census re-
turns, from which he obtained all
the knowledge he possesses, give the
number as little more than 2.OOU,
600. The principal difference be-
tween PETER and Annanias seems to
be that Annanias is dead.

GREAT Is KANSAS.
Her Farmers Will Ship Out Ninety
Million Dollars Worth of
Products.

We advise each Of our readers to
carefully study the following taken
from the Capital, and then file this
paper away for future reference.
"a very interesting analysis of
the crop and financial situations in
Kansas has been made by Hon.
M. Mohler, secretary of the board
of agriculture of that state. Mr..
Mohler is making tour of the east,
ern states for the purpose of study
ings agricultural conditions therein
as well as to give desired informa-
ton respecting Kansas. Mr.. Moh-
Ter says that it is Of no use now to
discuss the causes which produced
unfortunate conditions in the state.
1t is sufficient to say that undue
speculation and crop failures are re-
sponsible in the main. The outlook
for payment of farm mortgages is
encouraging in every way. Kansas
has had many good crops but there
has never been a year when crops
generally throughout the state have
been better than this year, or when
prospects were better for good prices
and those who are posted in the his
tory of Kansas feel quite sure of a
succession of good crop years, such
as were had from 1875 to 1879 and
from 1882 to 1886, and this assur-
ance gives confidence in the future.
He continues:
To show the value of the farm
products of Kansas grown this year,
over aud above the amount needed
to supply the wants of farmers,
both with food for themselves and
for stock kept on the farm for work
or to feed for market | make the
following estimate: The bases with
but few exceptions upon which this
estimate is made, are the official sta
tistics, just received from the Office
in Topeka. The aim is to be con-
sentative so as to avoid an over
estimate. The total value of the
products of live stock, wool clip,
butter and cheese made, and poultry
eggs and milk sold, is estimated the
same as last year. The value of
these products, however, for this
year doubtless will be considerably
greater than last year.

of the output Of Kansas farms
therefore for 1891, over and above
the amount necessary to supply the
needs Of farmers, may safely be
placed in round numbers at 800, 600
600. Allowing $3O,OOO,OO0 for the
farmers necessary outlay in grocer
les, clothing, etc., we have left $50,
100000. This amount represents
the net proceeds Of Kansas farmers
for this year over and above their
entire living expenses. The assess
ed valuation of all farm lands in
Kansas for 1890 was $168,OO0,0OO,
Taking that as about one-fourth Of
the real value we have $672, 100000
as the real or full value Of Kansas
farm lands. Sixty million dollars
or the net proceeds Of Kansas farms
this year is therefore, about one
eleventh or nine per cent on the full
valuation Of Kansas lands. To show
the percentage Of profit on money
invested in western Kansas lands
when conditions are favorable for
wheat growing and prices good, the
following, which is one out Of I67
reports made officially to the Kansas
state board of agriculture in the fall
of 1890, representing seventy-four
Of the state, is given. The report
is from Kiowa county, which is
west Of the ninety-nlnth meridian,
and shows the net profits in grow
ing twenty-five acres of wheat:

Sand Point.

We are again compelled to
apologize to our Sand Point friends
for not, having them represented in
our news columns. This will not
occur again. We had made ar
rangements for a local editor at
Sand Point, but for some reason he
has failed to respond, probably ow-
ing to the pressure Of other bust
ness. The HERALD values the pat
ronage Of Sand Point enough to
give it the attention it deserves.
Sand Point presents lively APP
pearance these days. New houses
are going up; new businesses are
being established; new barges are
being built and new steamboats, are
putting into its harbor. The APP
pearances around the depot are no
less animated, and Agent Rogers
has his hands full to take care OF
the business.

Aaothgr Shooting Scrapa.

VIII P. Taylor, who has figured
somewhat in the sensational line,
returned to Kootenai yesterday
morning, and before 7 a. m. had
succeeded in getting into shooting
scrape. He and Pat. Talbot, night
Waterman for Burns & Chapman,
we're the principals.
1t seems that Pat. had told H. d.
Culver, Burns & Chapman's mana
ger here, that Taylor was looking
for him (Pat.) for trouble. Mr.
Culver asked Taylor if it was SO.
Taylor said no, and asked who said
80. Mr.. Culver told him that Pat
had. Taylor said that Pat. was a
liar and emphasized it with an un-
complimentary name. Pat. said
ne wouldn't take that from any
man and attempted to pull his gun.
Taylor followed suit, and got there
first, and when Pat. walked away
he had bullet in his shoulder. 1t
is only necessary for us to say that
when men look for trouble they
usually find it.
Taylor was arrested shortly after
wards for his relations with the
late Cora Merry. Col. Yocum
prosecuted the case and Judge Dolan
appeared for Taylor. The jury
found Taylor guilty Of lewd cohab-
itatiens and Judge Brewster sent
enced him to five months and ff-
teen days in the county jail.
People will probably differ in
their opinion of the lewd cohabita-
ton charge, but when Taylor's
whole career in this place is con-
sidered he can consider himself
lucky, SO think the majority of
people.
