The Mobile Register, the paper which
declares that if Senator Morgan is for
the Nicaragua canal bill, that is enough
to satisfy it that the bill is quite the
thing, says also that as much as it adj
mires Mr.. Cleveland's rugged honesty,
etc., his opposition to the silver precludes
his nomination by the Democracy. If
the Register had stopped there, it would
have been well, but the funny part of the
article came afterwards in suggesting
Carlisle in place of Cleveland on plat
form calling for free coinage of silver.
The difference between Carlisle and
Cleveland on free coinage is said to be
not very wide, as both believe it to be
Inadvisable.

The committee which unanimously re-
ported favorably, to the United States
senate the Nicaragua canal job consists
of five Republicans and four Democrats.
OF these the terms of four three Demo
Gratis and one Republican, will expire in
March, and, without any exception, the
last one of the four has been relieved by
his constituents of any further services
in political capacity. The chairman
of the committee. the Hon. John Sher-
man, of Ohio, will not, it is said, seek a
reelection this fall, and his constituents
will not, in that event. have an opportu-
nifty to pass judgment with regard to his
connection with this matter. 1t may be
mentioned. in passing, that although it
is now about two weeks since the adop-
ton Of Senator Wolcott's amendment
providing for the obtaining of test of
the beneticiaries of this hundred million
governmental endorsement, the list is
not yet forthcoming.

GUS politicians" Are they more cor
rupt or dishonest than men? If we ac-
cept the usually conceded fact that wo-
men are better, fail to see why they
would be dangerous. Beside, II wo-
man wants to be politician she will be,
whether enfranchised or not; and If she
| is to be dreaded, it is as an Irresponsible
| factor.
Seventh-Mr. Elders paucity of rea-
| SONS becomes apparent. What has the
| quality of the voice to do with the ques-
| ton of suffrage? He would be willing
to let the bill become law if women
could sing bass. What will he do with
the men who can't sing bass. or. in fact,
can't sing at all: Too bad if the poor
| fellows must be disfranchised for no
! fault of their own. Mr.. Elder tried to
| find argument for opposition. but there
never was or can be good reason for an
| unjust act.
| Eighth-He says it is grave mistake
TO both sexes and party to add another
ism" to the political creed. We do not
consider suffrage an ism" neither do
we admit his premises as true or fellow
the conclusion. His opinion does not
count for much when we consider the
| hosts of grand, noble men who think tina
the political party that hopes to retain
power must do so by enfranchising wo-
men and make this truly republic, a
government of, by and for the people.
and not government OF men, for men
and Of the men, who tell US how much
taxes we must pay, when we are to be
hung for disobedience to their laws, and
tell us how much right we have to our
own children. Oh. yes, this is grand
country, if you happen to be born a
ruler.
Ninth-If the legislature will agree
with Mr. Elder, and submit the suffrage
question to the women of Kansas, the
suffragists are sure of the result. am
for submission.
1t is wonderful how wise Mr.. Elder and
| his followers are about Gods plans.
They seem to know just the limit He has
allowed to woman, and yet they contin-
ually fear she will overstep the bounds.
Surely, they entertain an exalted opinion
of her ability; more powerful than the
Creator; for they fear the danger OF her
getting out of the central orb fixed by
the Creator into an eternal place in the
order of things" What terrible chaos
she may produce We would advise
them to work hard, long and well to
held God to keep her in her proper

A fellow in the east proposes 70 solve
the gold and silver problem by coming a
piece of money, one side silver and the
other side gold. This is similar to,
though less practicable than, the scheme
to make a new coin by inserting gold
plug through the center Of silver piece.
The latter might be done, and it would
prove great convenience TO the people,
because of absence of bulkiness, which
makes the present silver coin objection
able in large amounts.

That One Per Cent Money.

From the Iopeka Capital
Judge PETER owes his election to his
persistent presentation of The Way
Out TO the member of the Alliance In
debt. He preached it in every county,
wrote columns and pamphlets on his
scheme of farmers paying their indebt-
edness by loans to be made by the gov
eminent at per cent interest, payable
IN ten years, or never as the borrower
might prefer. To this one wild aud inn
probable financial scheme Judge PETER
owes his election as senator from Kan
sas for six years. He is now on his first
starring tour in the state and we hope
his constituents who were inoculated
with this | per cent interest idiocy will
demand of him that he present his
scheme in the form of bill when he
takes his seat at Washington. If he does
offer such bill in the United States SEN
ate there will be a laugh at the expense
of Kansas that will be heard from the
Atlantic to the Pacific.

Acting under the advice of Gen. Miles,
the war department has decided to ex-

companies of Indians will be organized
and attached to regiments serving III
the west, and if they make good soldiers,
several thousand recruits will be taken
from the more intelligent and advanced
tribes. The red troops will be treated in
all respects as are other soldiers, and
commanded by officers having thor

Speaker Elder SAYS he is willing for
women to vote when the laws of nature
shall so change the female organization

Ellen Lease Mrs Lease of Kansas is
reported to be an infidel" There is no
ground for any such statement. Mrs.
Lease believes in God. but she thinks he
has been crowded out of some of the
churches.
1t is a significant fact that when they
got to looking around for Mrs. Lease to
testify in the matter of the Coffeyville
outrage the last place they thought of
looking for her was at her own home,
though strange as it may appear, there
is where they found her.

Exceptions have very justly been taken
by many papers to the receat declaration
of the Central Labor union, that women
should have the right to vote, but this
privilege or right must be granted only
to those women who can take an oath
that they are dependent on their own
labor for support. If one set of women
vote. all must vote; but, better still, let
ali the women keep out of politics.

Probably a Fake.

From the Arkansas CITY TraveIef.
Word came to this city yesterday that
as soon as possible the Santa Fe would
begin moving $4,000 head of cattle into
the strip from Texas for Texas parties.
The cattle is to be unloaded at the
Chilocco stock yard and the supposition
is that the bunch is to be turned loose
upon the outlet The Santa Fe desired
to know if the company was prepared to
handle that many cattle from here: if
they had sufficient men, engines and
cars at this point to furnish transporta-
ton for that many cattle. 1t will take
5000 cars and five additional engines,
have been ordered. The contract calls
for the cattle to be in the strip by April l.

utterance of his that it reminds him of

The Specs are On Your Eyes.

From the winfield Tribune.
Victor Murdoch has been up to Topeka
as correspondent of the EAGLE. His
letters have given just conception of
the situation, from an unbiased stand
point, until his father went up to the
capital, when a changes came over the
spirit of his dream and he has drifted
into the old partisan method of lauding
the Republicans, and abusing the other
side. Perhaps the boys eyes were fail
ing and the old man furnished him a
pa of partisan spectacies.

THE PRIESTEN yEREIN,
A Clever Stroke Marked the Close of the
Session..

BUFFALO, N. Y, Sept. ga clever
stroke today marked the final session OF
"Priesten Verein" or German American
Clerical union. A non-member and one
who speaks German like a native, so
that it cannot be said that a point could
escape, was brought into the meeting at
its beginning and given an opportunity
to see it through to the close. AS if to
make the action still more remarkable
the outsider was an Irishman with the
unmistakable %patronymic Of O'Bierne
Seemingly the verein took this method
with the purpose Of counteracting in a
way that could not fail to attract notice
the unpleasant impression caused by
their exclusion of Father Zurcher, the
noted Buffalo champion of the anti
Cahenslyism.
From all accounts nothing dangerous
to the public veal took place in the
meeting, which was occupied nearly the
entire session balloting for officers to
serve during the ensuing year. A num-
Der OF candidates received votes for
every Office on the list, but well-known
clerics who have heretofore guided the
projects OF the verein easily distanced all
competitors. Vicar General Muehlseipen
OF st. Louis retains the presidency of the
organization; the vice president is DIR.

lam Terber OF st. Louis is secretary:

A Decided Sensation.

BUFFALO, Sept. pa decided sensa.
ton was caused today by an entrance eff.
fccted in the secret meeting of the
"Priesten Verein" by Father Nurcher
of Buffalo, a non-leader who has severe
ly criticized the association, calling il
''un-American." The printed program
Of the congress u the sessions
of the verein are open to bishops and
priests without distinction. Father
Zurcher's avowed purpose was taking
advantage of this announcement to Sc
cure a report of the proceedings in which
nothing would be supposed particularly
topics were discussed. Father Zurcher's
presence was discovered in short order,
however, and proceedings were practical
ly suspended until after some minutes
he Withdrew.
The members of the verein said he was
not asked to leave, and that the objec-
ton to Father Zurcher was that it was
thought his report would have been ma
l~icious, as he is an Alsatian, and has
shown himself prejudiced, and that in
any event his undertaking was uncalled
for, as the verein would furnish sufficient
Information to newspapers. Before
Father Zurcher's withdrawal from the
meeting Chairman Father Meissner,
though not addressing Rev. Zurcher d.
rectly, took occasion to declare that the
verein was not working to secure German
bishops in the United States, and that it
was not opposed to temperance.
