The people Of Kansas seem disposed to
keep he lent all the year around Calves

That seems like an innocent-faced pun,
but it is susceptible to the construction
of the meanest sort. In plain English,
it Is an intimation that the people of
Kansas aredishonest, regulators, which.
in view of the fact that Texas has never

that Texas has been-is being-the i'm

lent by Kansas in securing favor
from the government that will be of in

we say in view of these and other in
cldents that might be mentioned, the
squio quoted from the News comes with
mighty poor grace, to say the least.

The sum of $31 900, 600 will be distribu-
ted to the pensioners of the United
States by Uncle Sam during the first ten
days of March. The amount is enor-
nous in the aggregate, but it will add
less than 90 cents per capita of popula-
ton to the active circulation. However.
this is one of the cases where little is a
prodiSious percentage upon nothing, and
but for the pensioners the country
wouldn't get that.

suffrage for women means suffering
for men. The Atchison Patriot aptly
illustrates the point in this:
Woman suffrage is symbolized on
Wyoming's seal by the figure of woman
from whose uplifted arm bangles a broken
chain. This is very poetical. but a more
truthful symbol would be depressed man
from whose arm bangles a teething baby

From the Atchison Globe.

The Raise He'll committee from the
Kansas legislature arrived in town at
noon. 1t is not hoped to accomplish any
good; simply to raise he devil. This
sort of thing has done Kansas more harm
of late than all other things combined.
This committee is mother one of the dis
agreeable results of prohibition. Prohi-
bitionists brought a quarrel upon the
state which is very disastrous. A few
years ago Kansas received five immi-
grants to Nebraska's one; since Kansas
adopted prohibition the rule has been re-

official in New Q leans, but it is not the
officials fault. The Italian contingent

their minds that he is not a man to be
trusted He is tricky and corrupt and
will wreck the Alliance of the state if he
