be farther from the truth. Not only
dove demand rigid economy but we
endeaVor to give it practical illus
tration. There is an ancient adage
that warns US mot to be penny
wise and pound foolish" This is
what We would guard against. True
economy does not ALWAYS consist in
the lowest prices regardless of every
thing else. Above all We would guard
against being fanatical. Don't be-
lieve everything you hear. Because
times are hard with you don't charge
it all to vicious legislation. We be-
lieVe we ought to have more
money, but with free coinage
of silver We couldn't get a
dollar unless we worked for it
or unless we produced some
thing in exchange for it. 1t
is not possible that any farmer
thinks he can ever be successful in
Western Kansas unless he can grow
crops, no difference what the legiisla-
ton may be. Think over these things
for yourselves. We want legislation
to control railroads and other corpo-
rations and we want more money
and cheaper interest but we don't
want to go to the other extreme at
this time. Search for the golden
mean and when you have found it
you will perhaps discover that
the remedy IS not found in radical
of any kind.

SUNSET AT TAHOE.

The saddest limitation OF the paint
or is that he cannot depict the glory
OF "a sunset. The colors he may rc-
produce rs truo rs the evening has
them, tint for tint, tone for tone.
shade and form to the minutest por-
ton. But there is glory, eirulgence
N radiance in the cloud. Light,
irridescence, spirituality, in the gold
en- SEA about the sun. These he can
not imprison on his canvas They
are evanescent rs the evening wind.
They evade tho cunning OF his brush.
Even Titan failed-what hope left
FOR others! Tho canvas is but the
corpse of tho sunset, for the soul is
departed.
Could the artist reproduce with all
its varying color harmonies the sun
set ELECTS on Lake Tahoe, what n
picture it would be! In the galleries
of art its equal could not he found.
The lake lying blue and beautiful
beneath the snow-crowned hills; n
dreamy atmosphere enveloping every
thing. Tho hills fade away in the
farther distance like the reccding
minarets Of some ethereal city. Tho
waters melt with the mountains in
the FAR away-mountains and waters
fade into azure and the sky. Ban
ners OF gold, o%palescent strcamers
and celestial torches flame and nre
flung across above tho ball OF tho
SIM; dark shadows and hoary noun
tam silhouettes beneath. Far and
near rainbow hues play and s%cintil-
late and blush upon the peaks and
hills. The waters burst in diamonds
kissed by the breeze, or mirror back
tho skies when still. The scene var
les each instant. Tho molten ball
slowly sinks. Tho light and glories
are intensified. Nature is ali mt onco
prodigal OF hor treasures. She show
crs the world with her gorgeous col
orings. Sho paints the sky with
~dnzzling gold and crimson; tho SEA
with ruby; the hills with n slIeon OF
rainbows. The sun is n hemisphere,
n crescent, n point OF dazzling flame
is gone. Tho cphcmeral hucs OF
sunset lingcr awhile, and fade slowly;
they too arc gone. But tho lake is
still thcre.--ISicrrn Tourist.

THE BURDEN PENSIONS.

lie extravaganza Of tho present
Republican administration ut wash
ington and the reckless expenditures
OF the billion congress are well set
forth by the New York Commercial
Bulletin, an authority whose conser-
fatlSm in statement is pr~ovcrbial.
h expenditures OF the government
Tor the past fiscal year were S}SS,GOO,-
600, and Of this amount ~S7I,lUOOOO
wero paid in interests on the public
debt, premiums on bonds md on ac-
count OF tho national bank redemp-
ti"n fluid. In 1850, the net ordinary
expenditures OF the government werc
slOo,V9o,Oo0, and in 1890 they were
s2fl 100000. During the last fiscal
year they reached the unprecedented
SUN Of S2l7,J0J,OO0. There has been
no unusual warrant for such an in.
crease, and the only explanation that
u be given for il is criminal extrny-
agance. Tho most prominent feature
OF this record is pensions, which have
more than doubled during the past
decade. Tho expenditures on this
account the past year reached the
alarming figure Of Sl2I, 100000. Ten
years ago, the pension appropriations
amounted to S50,OOO,OoO, and yet there
was no complaint Oh the part Of hon
est claimants that their clnims were
neglected. But it was only during the
past two years that the sharks in
Washington contrived 10 got from the
billion congress and Il corrupt pension
bureau what they had failed TO gain
previously. The outgo OF tho peoples
money for pensions has now reached
such "A frightful extent that q halt is
i~u:peratively demanded. Tho rows
ion Of the pension lists is absolutely
necessary, for il is a notorious fact
that on those lists are thousands of
names which have no right TO DO
there.
The system, originally conceived in
tho best patriotic spirit, md intended
to ~oxcmplify tho nations gratitude
towardsit its defenders, has dcgenoratcd
into n convenient source Of colossal
fortunes to the worst brood Of harpies
that over afflicted n government. Tho
pension Office has been SO demoralized
under Tanner and Raum that it has
become "A by-word OF shame. Ono conf
missioner, who boldly announced his
intention TO bankrupt tho treasury
and allow the thioving system Of 70.
batting TO go on unchecked, was
obliged 10 retire from office, only to
join the brood OF Unsuitable sharks ut
tho national capital. His successor
hns not indulGod in such foolish
boasts, but no has been ovon more
effective in omptying tho treasury
and further dcmoralizing the Office.
1t may DO that under such "a corrupt
administration thorc may DO no re-
vision OF the pension lists, however
strong tho popular demand may DO
for IT. Tho only remedy left, then,
will DO q clean sweep OF tho pension
laws, until nm honest administration
is assured. When a system has beer
brought to such II pass as to Lccomo
tho vehicle OF unprecedented frauds
II should DO suspended. Tfo Prcsi.
dent insists upon keeping u branded
official as tho dispenser Of n large pro-
portion OF tho governments revenues.
No reform is possible while such n
man remains in Office. Tho next
Congress should deal with this mnttcr
in tn" most Incorporating manner.
