VOLUME XII NUMBER l..

The BARBER COUNTY INDEX, hav-
ing completed the eleventh year of Its
existence, starts with this issue, Volume
XII Number 1. The INDEX started in
June, 1880, as a democratic paper, and
so continued until August, 1890, when
a change in its political management
was effected, and it took up the gaunt-
let in favor of the alliance movement,
and the peoples party of the United
States. But aside from its political
history and tendencies the INDEX has
ever been strictly home paper, has
been for Barber county, Medicine Lodge
and southern Kansas, first, last and at
all times against the world. The well
fare of our people and the advance
ment OF their dearest interests have
been its thought by day and dream by
night. While It's course of conduct
upon all OCCASION may not have pleased
every citizen or class in a manner we
could wish, it has all times and under
all circumstances been their constant
consistent friend. AS in the past so
will 1t continue in the future, a live
home paper, keeping fully abreast with
the times in which we live, and ever
equal to all emergencies. And while
we are thankful for the very liberal
patronage bestowed in the past, will
only add should our friends want a
paper that will continue working for the
best interests of the county and town
during 365 days in the year, we ask
them to kindly remember the Medicine
Lodge INDEX.

RECIPROCITY.

Alma Signal: ''Of all the frauds at
tempted to be perpetrated on the peo-
pie the reciprocity humbug is entitled
TO the palm.
The idea is to exchange the products
OF our manufactures for the agricul-
tural products of the South American
countries. We will admit that this
would be a nice thing for our manufac-
turing industries but it would be death
to the American farmers.
They would be compelled to compete
with the wheat and corn ralsers of the
PanAmerican states in New York and
other eastern markets. The result
would be that our farmers population
would be driven into bankruptcy while
our brothers in the east having their
surplus invested in manufacturing in
terests would enjoy increased prosper
ity.
But extend the reciprocity idea so as
to include England, France and other
manufacturing countries on the list
and the evil effects on the American
farmer will be entirely obliteraued.
But this is not laid down in the pro-
gramme. Give us reciprocity with
England and then will think the poll
ticIans are in earnest. But this would
give the American farmer the benefit
of competition in the purchase of the
manufactured products of the old world.
Such course would be equivalent to
killing the goose that laid the golden
egg-that Matched the last presidential
candidate. The farmers must look out
for themselves, but our manufacturing
industries must be cherished-or else
they will no longer permit the fat to be
fried out of them for campaign purpos-
es. Give us a rest on this reciprocity. !"

"Few people" says a naval officer,
appreciate the tremendous nature of
the blast caused by firing big gun on
board of ship. An example of its eff
feet was seen in some recent trials in
firing the sixty-seven-ton gun pf the
battle ship Trafalgar, considered one of
the three or four finest vessels Il the
British navy. The gun was pointed di-
rectly ahead, and fired with a charge of
$50 pounds of slowhurping powder and
a l,250zpou projectile The blast
produced by the rush of the powder-eas
and the shot was so tremendous that
the plates Of the forecastIe were forced
Ia and the deck beams bent out of shape.

ing waste the right or the left. 1t Is
estimated that the vessel would be re-
duced to something very like a wreck
were twenty-five rounds to be fred,
either directly ahead or directly astern.
This interferes with, or renders impos-
sible, firing when either in fight or
chase, and has caused our naval con-
structors to modify the plans for the
projected battlesflip. as it IS not deemed
desirable to have them sink from thu
discharge of their own guns. IN. Y

board an hundred or more of the heretics and

THE OLD SOLDIERS VS.. THE
REPUBLICAN, PARTY.

Hear what Leland j. Webb, man
high up IN grand army circles. has to
say concerning the republican party
and papers in regard to their treatment
of soldiers:
1.-The Kansas department has been
killed by politicians who simply used
the soldiers In and out of the Grand
Army for political purposes. 1t is safe
to say that the governor of this state
and the secretary of state and nine out
of ten of the Grand Army men holding
Office in this state, do not visit their
post on an average of one year; if the
truth could be known, many of them
Will be Hutchinson standing around
the hotels and in the halls of the Grand
Army meeting, watching for some fell
low 10 come along who can give
them the countersign for the
present term.
Why have not these republican edi-
tors had something to say about the
appointment of anarchist Henrie over
good soldier? Why have not these
republican editors had something to
say about Gov. Humphrey appointing
four out FIVE clerks In his own Office
who are not old soldiers? Why have
not these republican editors had some
thing to say about the governor keep
ing blackmailer in his office? Why
have not these republican editors had
something to say about the discharge
of two soldiers widows from the office
of the secretary of state, and the APP
pointment of clerks in their stead who
are not soldiers or soldiers widows?
Why have not these republican editors
had something to say about the appoint
ment of Chas. Holiday, a commission
Ell to the Worlds Fair, over a soldier
like J. F. Thompson? The answer is
plain. 1t is because their protestation
of regard for the soldiers, is like that of
the governor and his henchmen-made
only to catch their vote Yes, gentle
men, you do love the soldiers but sim
ply to catch their votes and the boys
have found it out, and don't you for
get it. Fellows who have good fat
jobs, and editors who have the post
offices are for the soldiers before cleo
tions, but after, they are for themselves
The good Lord deliver us from such
friends"
