ANOTHER OATH BOUND SECRET SOCIETY

ANOTHER OATH BOUND SECRET SOCIETY.
There seems to be, just now, considerable sgl-
tatlOn to secure members for the Citizens ALI
ance. We wonder II the men who are asked to
Join that secret society understand the nature OF
the oath they will be required to take. One
portion Of 1t Is, that they will be compered to
swear that they will not hereafter vote either the
Democratic or Republican ticket. The Idea OF
men taking an oath like that is not only absurd
but abh0rrent. 1t is foolish enough, and un-
patriotic enough to take part In any way with
secret organizations having political schemes for
their object, but for man of intelligence to de-
liDerately tie himself by an oath not to do some
thing which he may some time believe 1t his duty
to do, is silly. No man Of sense will do it, In
short.-MinneGDOli Messenger.
The foregoing is published with
seeming great pleasure by many Of
the Republican papers of Kansas, and
perhaps they regard it as valuable
matter because it emanstes from the
little man, A. P. Riddle, who for four
years was the Republican lieutenant
governor of Kansas, and who ere his
term Of Office expired, was supremely
anxious to come back to the Senate
from the district composed of the
counties of Ottawa and Saline. But
Jerry G. Mohler, of Saline, blocked
his way, so that the next honor he
seized upon was the exalted place of
secretary of the Republican state
convention of 1890, in which he was
permitted to interject speech upon
the body about as valuable as the above
article. Probably this snarling pa
triot has forgotten that the Republi-.
cans have recently organized secret
soldier organization and that they
have sgrand oath bound secret society,
hailed as the knights of Reciprocity
Dear Riddle! Try to work up into
some decent political manhood and
have less worry about "The Citizens
Alliance"

A HARD QUESTION.

The Capital is very free to ask
questions, and very slow to answer
them. It has recently asked the
Atchison Champion few leaders,
which that journal has promptly an
swered with characteristic frsnknesS
and much to the discontinue of the
Capital The Champion, in closing
it's answer to the last question, takes
occasion to ask Hudson if the Repub-
lican state platform of 1890 was in
tended as an expression Of Republi-
can principles, or if it was adopted
for buncombe? This is the question
the Hutchinson Ne,US has repeatedly
asked and failed to receive an answer.
We suggest to the readers of the
Capital that they watch it's columns
for the next two or three years for an
answer to this question.

CONSENSUS OF KANSAS SENATORS ON
THE NEXT PRESIDENT.


The Topeka Capital prints interviews
1t has had with two-thirds of the Repub-
lican members of the Kansas State SEN
ate, and believing that there will be some
interest attaching to the views of the last
Republican Senate in Kansas on their
status on the next candidate for presi-
dent, a summary of their utterances is
here presented for the purpose of future
reference:
Lieutenant Governor Andrew ]. Felt, Of
Nemaha-Blaine is my choice for president.
would like to see him the candidate, but l
don't believe he will ever consent to the use
of his name. Il is hard to make a predic-
tion now whether Harrison will be the nomi-
nee.
oh. Bently, of Sedgwick-It is very evil
dent that Harrison will be renominated and
consider him the strongest candidate that
can be named. Before Harrison became
president regarded him rather small

THE DEFEAT OF ANARCHY.
FrUstration Of q Foul Plot to Overtime
Popular Government.

Frustration Of q Foul Plot to Overthrow
Popular Government.
By vote of IS yeas to 81 NAYS the
force bill has been put aside. The
measure which was fifty denounced as
worse than secession will be heard OF
no more, save as it is recalled to signal
ize the popular contempt for those dem
agogues who would dethrone the peo-
pie for the benefit of conspirators
against American institutions. In this
event the people viii find cause for re-
ioicing as they have reason for careful
examination of the conditions which
made the attempt of Lodge and Hoar
possible. While the occasion is still
fresh in the public mind let the circum-
stances be well considered. OF prime
importance is the fact that the impu-
dence of Senator Sanders has found
prompt rebuke. When it was an
nounced that the press of the country
had voiced the popular wish, this acct
dental statesman from a rotten borough
of monopoly exposed his own ignorance
by the assertion that the press never
reflected the sentiments of the people.
The pigmy from Mon tana had taken
the success of the conspiracy in his
State as an Indication that 1atter-day
RepubGcanism was something besides q
machine oiled with the contributions
levied upon the people by manipulators
of blocks of five and contributors to
funds raised for debauching the bal
lot. The event viii not disturb the
equanimity of the little individual
rattling in place designed Tor states

The Republican Rule.

The Republicans would change the
old maxim and make it read: Its a
poor rule that works both ways"
When Mr.. Morgan asked Mr.. Evarts if
the Republican party had not abolished
suffrage, both of blacks and whites, in
the District of Columbia, in order to
prevent the destruction of property in
terests there, the New York Senator de-
clined to discuss the subject. He would
talk about the ballot in the Southern
States but not elsewhere. Some time
ago when Senator Dolph, like Senator
Evarts, was advocating the force bill
and denouncing the South, he was re-
minded that the constitution of Oregon
forbade a colored man to hold Office in
that State. He, too, refused to con-
slider that phase Of the subject First

publican party, q lost doctrine 1t be-
ieves that there should be one set Of

Cow-Birds.

Cow-birds are SO called from an pdd
fancy they have of taking a ride on the
cows back occasionally while in the
pasture The female is homely enough
to be called a coy.-bird, being of uni-
form dusky grayish brown, but the
male is a fne-looking bird, clad in an
entire suit of rich black velvet, with
head and neck of a deep maroon color.
COw-birds usually look for the homes of
birds that are smaller than themselves,
and if fortunate in finding one where
the owners have gone out on business
or pleasure the lady-bird takes posses
sion of the nest and leaves an egg there
and then quietly takes her departure
This is not a very lady-hke proceeding.
but there may be some reason for it,
either the birds are too lazy to build
nests for themselves or they don't know
how. Their eggs are large, of dirty
white color, plentifully splashed over
with a cold gray-brown--Detroit Free
Press.

man. He will continue to force his
insignifcanee upon the people until
opportunity be offered to relegate him
to private life. But sensible legislators
will understand that the press of the
country may be relied upon to reflect
with unerring certainty the trend of
public opinion. In observance of this
public servants will secure a guide
which may be their salvation from the
pitfalls dug for them by men who in
terest themselves in politics only for
revenue purposes
In this event also may be found iusti-
fication of that faith in their institutions
which has made Americans optimists as
to the future, however pessimistic they
may have been as to existing condi-
tons. It was a foul plot which had
been Matched for their enslavement A
party without scruples, controlled by
cabal guiltless of patriotism, possessed
the power to enact laws by which the
people should be left apparently help
less. The ballot was to be left only as
means for recording the edicts of cor
porate monopoly. Paid agents were to
do their voting and counting in accord
ance with the commands of men fat
tened at the peoples expense. Golfers
already swelled with levies diverted
from the common fund by hands of
private tax-gatherers were to be made
larger and the Nation submit because
of impotence under law which CEN
tralized all power in the hands of
thugs and hired assassins. But, great
as was the danger, it has been averted
because the people were stronger than
their betrayers Not even party disci-
p1ine was sufficient to control the action
of men who saw what was proposed.
Democrats in every State may regard
this outcome as an incentive for per-
sistent opposition to all attempts at the
establishment of monarchical systems
in this country. Wherever legislators
are to be found fighting the battle Of
free government against the influences
potent in the present administration of
National affairs they will see in the
| downfall of the force bill an example
of what may be accomplished by an
honest minority to whom has been in
trusted the duty of defeating pernicious
| legislation attempted by a repudiated
majority The faithful one hundred
| and one at Springfield will see in the
victory of their brethren at Washington
promise of what will surely come to
them as the reward of their fidelity.
Let the lines be held firm. The people
| are mighty and will prevail. The knell
| of Republican anarchy has sounded.
Popular government has withstood
| another attack.-Chicago Times.
