the clippings she mas been unable to

Two Kinds of Farmers.

From the New Orleans Republican,
Ills related that there is a marked
difference between the real farmer
aud the advertised agriculturist.
In the first place, the farmer is he
who tolls and sweats, digs up and
works the soil. On the other hand
the agrlculturist, the one of wnom we
read so much, is the farmer OH paper.
He, too, labors out not in the soil
His efforts are we'll stated when be

KANSAS GRAIN INSPECTION,

We trust that in the flight of time and

stop many Of the leaks in this business.
and is far reaching IN the fact that il
provides for a Kansas grade of grain. a
grade which when established and
maintained by the strictest legal
enactmeuts, viii become stand

embodies the ideas of some half dozen Of
the best grain laws in the country, and
has been carefully considered by expert

some half dozen lawyers. 1t has been
reported favorably by the senate COM

DOUGLASS AS A REPUBLICAN,.
From the Topeka Capital.

From the Topeka spital.
They are charging Mr. Douglass, Re
publican member from Sedgwick coun-
ty, with going over to the Alliance.
Senator Bentley made a statement of
this kind in the senate the other day and
several newspapers have also published
il. Said Mr.. Douglass to the Capital
representative yesterday:
1T is absolute b0sh, But l assume. Of
course, that Mr. Bentley got 1t off as a
Joke In any event. the talk is all based
upon the fact that | am opposed 10 re-
hashiug political speeches in the legIsia-
ture and refuse 10 squandeT public time

has TO wear tag 10 indicate his poll
tics or make a speech every twentv-fOur
hours 10 inform the public that ne has not
changed his political opinions Is a man
who needs watching. l also think that
when the campaign l. over its time 10
let up little on political discussion; and
when a man comes 10 the legislature,
nv theory Is that he ought 10 get down
10 work and keep his stump speeches for
the next campaign. / am and always
have been a straightOut Republican. l
merely believe In more work and less
wind in legislative business; but people
who believe that members Of the legisla-
ture ought 10 spend their time in politi-
cal 'yawping' instead of attending 10
the necessary work Of the legislature,
naturally object to nv position; and
that's all the basis there i for the foolish
assertions about my going over 10 the
Alliance. IL Is unmitiEated nonsense.

The Hamburg Board OF Trade, in its
report for 1890. takes sides with the
American pig thus:
1--WE have always regarded as INSULT
cient the testimony As TO the unwhole-
someness of American pork. We have
been confirmed in this opinion recently
BY the results of the investigation of ex-
pertS to the effect that the English labor
er, with his diet of cheaper American
pork, has numerous economic advant-
ages ov, + the German laborer, with his
diet of more expensive continental pork.
We have, therefore. willingly done as re-
duested, and have affixed our names to
a petition for the abolishing Of the pro-
hibition OF American pork.

A SENSIBLE ALLIANCE PAPER.

The price of money can no more be
fixed by legislation than can the law Of
supply and demand. Every attempt to
circumvent or restrict interest on capital
IS at the expense of the borrower and
debtor. That an attempt to control it
viii drive it beyond the reach Of the
statutes is equally true. Legislation is
the curse of America today, fraught with
great evils and responsible for more
grevious burdens probably than any
other agency. 1t was the tinkering of
law making powers that drove railway
competition out of the country and that
forced all manner Of trusts and COM
bines:
We commend the following from the
Alliance Tribune, Peoples party paper:
We incline to the opinion that the less
our legislature thinkers with the interest
question, and the foreclosure matter, the
better it will be for the mortgaged farm
er, that is so far as it effect eastern loan
companies.
We believe usury should be made a
crime, and the chattel mortgage fiend
completely tnrottled, but the legitimate
capitalist should be protected. We re-
member that the last Republican legisla-
ture, by their ''socialistic" threats,
frightened eastern lenders to the point of
Withdrawing their funds from Kansas,
and many of them did so, and we be
lieve the less agitation of the question at
this time the better.
We have five members of congress of
Kansas and a United States senator who
are pledged to an increase of the cur
rency, and upon the congress our gnns
should be sighted
Let our legislature reduce the number
of offices, and reduce the salaries of
others, but treat the legitimate money
lender fairly Kansas always
leads, and now let our farmer lawmakers
be leaders.
