WHETHER Kansas is in debt or out
of debt, paying debts or contracting
debts are questions for campaign dis
cussions, but 100000 bushels of
wheat, 100000 bushels Of oats,
145, 900, 900 bushels Of corn, vegetables
and fruits in abundance, and horses,
cattle and hogs innumerable are busi-
ness points that the whole world can
appreciate. Here is such wealth as

If ANY of our readers believe in the
boast of certain third party would-be
leaders, that the democrat party of
Kansas is dead, we would like them to
call around and examine the democratic
papers we receive from nearly every
county seat town in Kansas. Every
one OF them has either a democratic
ticket at the head of their editorial col
umns, or a call for a democratic con.
vention. No. the democrats of Kansas
are not dead, neither do they sleep; but
are up and at work in the interests OF
humanity and good government, and
will or.tinue so until the end of time

The MAN who feels unkindely to-
wards a newspaper because it dosen't
support, on personal grounds, the man
that he would like to have supported, /,
should remember that if out of friend
ship to him the paper should support
the man he favors, it would possibly
hurt the feelings of people who were on
the other side. The paper that wavers
for fear it will lose friends does not
accomplish much. The proper thing
for an editor to do is to pursue the
course that appears to him best for the
public welfare. Then if he is not prop
erly appreciated and supported he has
the consolation of self-respect as re-
compense.-Pottawotomie Times.

dressed to a great audience this in

1T Is observed that the political cam
paigns throughout the country have
been conducted this year with rare
decencY and decorum- There has been
little tendency to introduce personali-
ties, and there has been a gratifying
absence of the disgraceful vituperation
and asperities which were 50 common
in American politics even a few years
ago. The campaign between Cleveland
and Blaine witnessed the elimination
of that sort of blaekguardism. 1t re-
acted so disastrously against the party
introducing it that it has been i'm dis
favor ever since. 1t is to be earnestly
hoped that it viii never be revived.

the slanderS against Gov. Campbell in

disgrace to the state and who narrowly
escape prosecution for d criminal Of
