IA to To- Speaker Elder introduced a
bill to abolish the thirty-secOnd judi
cial district of Kansas Judge Botkln's

suspended and that the bill be read a
second and third time and place on final
passage. Amid great disorder, de-
nunciations and counter-denunciatiOns
the bill was passed by 81 for and "a
against. All the republicans except
Webb voted against the bill, and nine
alliance men also voted against it. The
proposed constitutional amendment
which prohibits any county, township
or incorporated city, or any other
political or public subdivision of the
state, from issuing any bonds or other
obligations in aid of any railroad or
private corporation was reported upon
favorably by the house committee. A
bill was passed appropriating $50, 900 to
the farmers of western Kansas.

What is sauce for the farmer is sauce

What is sauce for the farmer is sauce
for the hired man. At least that ap-
pears to be the conclusion of sc me of
the farm laborers in the town of Eric
son, Renville county, according to a
correspondent of the Renville Union
When the farmers alliance held
their regular meeting in the school
house the boys went to town and held
a meeting of their own, where they de-
cided that they were in sympathy with
their bosses in the move. They thought
however that it was nothing more
than right that they (the hired mem
should be entitled to some of the ex-
pected spoils, and to start with wages
should and ought to be raised. Reso-
lutions were passed to this effect, and
mind you, they stuck to them too. The
old bosses thought they could not af-
ford to pay the wages demanded and
the boys packed their grips and start
ed off to countries where their de-
mands would be heard. We think ii
to be in perfect order; why should not
the laborer seek to better his condi-
ton? They are taught by the other
classes to do so and why should they
lie still when SO much is going on?
We glory in their spunk.

New Ulm Review. The action OF

New Ulm Review. The action of
the governor is a puzzle to the people
here. While the majority of them are
in favor of committing of sentence,
they cannot understand why the gov
ernor should have delayed SO long as
he did, and especially when nothing
was brought to bear but the influence
of men like Shelter, who know moth
ing of the case. The governor has
had plenty of opportunities heretofore
to look into the facts surrounding the
trial, and the matter introduced by Mr..
Baldwin and so ardently set forth by
Mr.. Shelter could hardly have been
new to him. Uptothe present time no
one has disputed the fairness of Hol-
denis trials. Some may have doubted
his guilt, but no one except interested
parties ever insisted that he did not re-
ceive just hearing. To trump up this
charge in the last hour, looks merely
like a scheme to spring some plausible
story and thus secure communication
We do not think the governor had
good reason for doing as he did.
The San Francisco Chronicle has
been paying special attention to the
beet sugar question of late, and its dis
closures may be condensed into this
one statement !: at will take 700 estab-
lishments equal to those now working
at Grand Island, Neb., and at Alvarado
and at jacksonville, CAL, to supply our
home market with sugar" As each OF
these establishments cost at least $500
GOO before it was in full running order
and as each can consume 800 tons OF
beets day, at cost of 81 800, and as
the daily coal bill of. each of them is
about $3.50, and the daily wage and in
cidental cost list about $3.50, the poss-
ible magnitude of the beet sugar in
dustry is more imaginable than com
prehensible.
The Winnebago City Press asserts
that the general impression has been
that nothing short of two hundred
thousand dollar factory, for beet sugar
making, can be successfully operated
Prof. Budd of Iowa, who visited Eu-
rope, says that the small factories, cost
ing from $1,000 to $4,000 are the most
profitable. Many of these small fac
tories are owned by farmers forming
little syndicates, grow the beets and
make the sugar. One mill he visited
costing only $1,000, turned out twenty
barrels of brown sugar per day.

1t is said the ginger habit is becom-
ing prevalent in Philadelphia with Sc
rlous results. Tincture of ginger or
Jamaica ginger is the strongest and
most irritating alcoholic solution

sOlute, which Is undrinkabIe. those
who use it are women, and the habit
has SO encroached upon the best soci-
ETY. that at the morning and afternoon
gatherings of ladies it is freely used.
The habit once acquired becomes
hopeless. 1t is worse than the liquor
habit and undermines health and
morals.
We are in full accord with the Uni
on Signal in the following noble utter
ance:-In these days when total abstin-
ence is becoming more popular, there
is renewed effort to introduce alco-
holics into cookery. If you put the
devil out of the door, he flies in at the
window, and if you put him out of the
window he dances down the chimney
and sets his blue lights burning on
the cook stove. Caterers consider
many of their most delicate incomplete
without the smack of alcoholics; they
hide this devil in solution in their
sherbet, in their pudding sauce, in
their cakes, their pies. Let tenn per-
ance people be on the lookout at
restaurants, hotels and so-called high
toned dinner tables.-Progressive Age.
According to the carefully prepared
statistice of Professor Francis G.. Pea
body of Harvard University, the num-
Der of persons employed in the traffic
in the United States is over one mil
lion. There are more than two hun
dred thousand engaged directly in the
sale of liquor. In the year 1886 the
a gregate wages of the working men
of the United States was 1897 100000,
but the amount spent for beer was
1901, 100000, the amount for distilled
liquors, 1897 100000, the amount for
impo. ted wines, $16,OOO,OOO, and for
domestic wines 100000, a total of
1891 100000. This vast army will not
yield this tremendous tribute without
struggle. Who shall be sufficient
then, to remove the foul causes of the
disease that poisons the nations life!
The churches should lead in the
movement. They should unite in SOL
id phalanx and set themselves like
steel against the terrible evil. Then
they should appeal to the farmers Of
the nation and the working men of the
cities. Both these classes are already
opening their eyes. The farmers can
most easily be aroused, but there are
signs that the laboring men are begin.
ming to sigh for relief from the tyran.
ny of the saloon. The labor leaders
are becoming outspoken. The work
of education is in progress. Cannot
these interests and powers be com
bined to effect the great deliveranceI

In view of Senator D. B. Hills dis
avowal of free trade, the following
frank statement of opinion by the N.
Y. Standard is interesting: Mr. Mills
is a frea-trader, and he has had the
courage to say SO. That is what every
man in the Democratic party ought to
be. There is no room in this country
for two Protectionist parties. Now
that the issue has been raised it must
be fought out, and the Democratic
party will achieve no more victories
until it takes the right position. Tariff
Reform was good enough to begin
with, but no petty question of per-
centages is going to enable the Demo
cratic party to hold those of it's voters
who will be attracted to the new third
party. Let the fight come on the
Speakership, and let the men who de-
sire Democratic success for its own
sake open their eyes to the fact, al
ready apparent to Free-Traders, that
the time has come when the only hope
of Democratic victory lies in an open,
aggressive campaign for Free Trade -

New Uses OF Electricity.

At Lawrenoeburg, Ind, a novel use has
been made of electricity in winding wires
around a pretty woman who represented
the goddess of liberty, and in thus lighting
up a number of incandescent lamps dis
posed about her. The current was obtained
from the street mains, n the effect elicit
ed the most enthusiastic applause from the
spectators. The use of electricity in this
way is becoming very popular and in
France, thanks to the inventor, Ttouve,
has been developed into a new theatrical
art. But there are a great many effects of
this kind awaiting use for theatrical and
advertising purposes. One Of the most
striking Of these is where a lamp floating
in a glass vessel full of water, and without
any wires or connections whatever, ia made
to light up. The effect is most mysterious
and ~bewildering. Those who are in the Sc
cret know that this result is obtained
through an ingenious use of the alternating
current. In the same way and by the same
means disks may be kept wildly rotating
md objects may be kept floating in midair
without any means of suspension or sup.
port. just imagine the sensation caused
by a display of this kind in store window!
Yet it is not a difficult thing to do and
would be more attractive and interesting
than some OF the things that cost ten times
as much mOney and trouble,
