The "reforr. press'' Of the state Of
Kansas condemns the Grand Army
Of the Repabllc a. organised to raid
the treasury Of the United States.
The devil has ct last shown his
cloven foot.
Thirty years ago when the Politi-
clans Of the South discovered they
could no longer "rule the roost, I"
they attempted to set mp an establish
ment Of their own but &c failed. All
through the term Of years since
then the politicians Of that section
have tried plan after plan and In
stitutsd scheme after scheme to
again "run thlngs," but all Of them
proved abortive.
Now they come forward In the
name Of "refoFm," and In the guize
Of patriots, seek 20 recover their lost
power and pristine glory. Armed
force failed Q quarter OF . century
ago 20 accomplish what IL now being
done by spscIous REFORM" backed
by srrant Hypocrisy, In the con-
quest Of Kansas.
1.-THE pen Is mightier than the
sword"
But why hold . secret conclave,
and Why keep from the public In
whose Interest the reform press de-
votes all It's precious time and tai
ents this denuncIatory resolution
CowArdice!
There 10 no other alternative but
10 believe it was Just that and moth
ing more. What has the honest and
true and patriotic reformer to fear
from vitiated public sentiment?
William Lloyd Garrison and his
compatriots braved Q storm ten
times more furious than any that
these times can produce; and when
they had any thing to say they said
&c, and when they felt they had .
duty to perform they did Il, and all
the Infamy and clubs and insults
and stones the mIsled populace were
Q mind to hurl at them did not deter
them nor cause them TO falter.
They did not pass resolutions de-
nonncIng slavery and then strive to
keep them from the public, because
they feared violence. st Paul as he
stood before Agrippa said, In referr-
ing TO the Christian religion This
thing was not done In q corner"
Are the conditions under which the
present reform movement IL work
ing such, that Il 10 necessary TO
advocate Il In secret and will Il
work out good for the whole people
while kept under lock and key?
The question Is plainly, shall the
people Of Kansas, be dominated by
the same spirit which thirty years
ago oppressed those who dared TO
speak for liberty even, much less to
practice it? The resolution Of the
"refOrm press" makes plain this
proposition.

THE LATEST THING IN STATE
RIGHTS.

The great State Of Texas has q
Governor OF the name OF Hogy; and
some OF his performances are OF 9
decidedly porcine character so far al
Intelligence aud discretion are con-
cernsd. For example, he has Just
vetoed . bill passed by the Legisla'
ture authorizing him TO accept the
&c per pound bounty offered by the
Mckinley bill on all sugar produced
by the State. His veto IL founded
upon the theory that said bounty
being Of . Federal nature, interfere,
with the right OF the State to man
age its own affairs In Its own way

tations, wheat delds, stock ranches,

sees In an act Of Federal kindnt %
and generosity Q sign OF encrosch-
ment upon the liberties Of the PEG.
pie Of Texas. II they accept q pro-
tective bounty OF &c per pound on
their sugar product, they thereby
place their necks under the heel a
despotisn, and make their future
black with probabilities OF outrags
and catastrophe.
II must be, then, that Texas has up
to this time overlooked many iusidi-
Gus influences Of this description.
There are . numbes OF Federal laws
and institutions operating wiihip
her borders, and she has never COM

have been supplied with seedwheat

RETALIATION AGAINST GERMANY

The report that this country will
retallate II Germany continues lite
interditct against American pork
will be received with satisfaction by
the people. Action Of this sort has
often been recommended by ib"
press aud by statesmen who have
given much thought to the question,
but until recently adequate power In
this direction WAS not provided In
any ready and practical shape. This
lack, however, has been abuudanily
supplied In the reciprocity section Of
the Mckinley tariff Law and in the
meat-insPection act. IL the Gee
mans keep up their exclusion OF
American pork the President may
either ultimately restore the duty
on German beet sugar, or he may re-
fuse admission to such German pro-
ducts as he may single out for attack.
The probability now ls that he will
take the course first mentioned.
Thus far the efforts Of our dipIo-
mates to induce Germany to relax
her unjust and Injurious restrictions
against this product have not met
with much success. Even the in
spection, thorough and scientific as
Il IL, which our Government has in
stltuted over American meats, In
obedience to the law recently enact
ed, has failed To hsge the desired
effect. A member Of the German
Ministry aids In the Reiehstag few
days ago that this examination 10
inadequate, and that the barrier
against the importation Of American
hog products will not be removed.
Diplomacy and legislation failing to
overcome German prejudice and
pervereness, reprisals will have to
be tried. A less drastic method Of
procedure In this matter would be
more agreeable TO u., to be sure.

rHE NATIONALITY.

For two weeks past We have en-
deavored 10 give the question Of who
should be the next mayor Q careful
consideration In these columns. We
have treated each Of the three can
didates fairly and considerably,
holding back nothing whi:h might
be said against the candidacy Of any
man. The time has now come when
we must choose between the three
men, and after thoroughly canvass
ing the field and reviewing the sit
uAtion In all Its varied aspects we
have come TO the conclusion that
Charles b. Kirkland Is the man who
should be elected mayor.
IL IL seldom the people are called
upon to make . choice among 50
many good men; there 10 really no
choice TO be made 30 far as the sew
eral gentlemen are individually con-
sideTed, and In making our choice
we are guided solely by the princi.
Piles represented by each. We are,
a. we have said unfavorable 10 the
two extremes, viz: extreme prohibit
ton and the sentiment expressed by
those who are favorable to q free and
easy policy IN the matter Of the en-
forcement Of the pTohibitnTy laws.
We have said that Il Is impossible TO
have these laws much better en-
forced 90 long as the public sentl-
ment which gave birth to them is In
such . damorslised state 80 Il 10 at
the present time. No fair man can
complain Of the manner In which
the present city administration
handled the "original package"
invasion last summer, now appar-
ertly forgotteb by most Of our over
Eealous prohibition friends. Our
city ofiiciaIs took tire initiative in
the matter Of suppresSing them, and
the work done by them should be .
thing In which all temperance Peo-
pie OF this city schould take PRIDE.
The men aud women who are sur
porting Charley Kirkland have moth
ing but commentator for this and
many other acts of our present city
administration, but there are other
things to be taken Into consideration
now, and they are that the elements
now supporting Mayor Underwood.
Every observation-disclosures and every
known sympathiEer with the joints
and those disressrdipg the Prohibi-
ton law 10 supporting him. Most
Of tbs real democrats OF the city are
supporting him, and it 10 openly
stated that among democrats that

IL seems that the foreign press
differs widely from the Tim q in its

sions which may be granted under
the Mckinley bill. II believes that

great nation speak they mean what
they say, and the South American
counties are willing to grant special
favors to the United States In their

such advantages from foreigners
naturally brings grief and mourning
