Senator Ingalls, has had quite an
awakening regarding the farmers
movement" an6 ss he is in an indepen-
dent position, with no fayOrs to ask or
bestOw, he is giving vent to his cOnvic-
lions in an able manner that is causing
CONSERVATION among old line Politicians
by skillfully puncturing political
schemes. Farmer.
We would be glad to have some good
republican journalist enlighten us upon
two questions relating to this subjest.
First-Wko got the 1873, 100000 issued
by the government in the various kinds
of non-interest bearing currency over
and above the entire expenses OF the
government? SecOnd-In as much as a
sufficient amonnt of non-interest bear
ing currency was actually issued to pay
all expenses Of the government, what
reason can be given for the issue OF
non-taxable interest bearing bonds?
Will some good republican financier
please rise and OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Itbegins to 4ook as if.the flag end of
the hog crop in the southwest is at
hand. hogs are being shipped from
here TO Wichita for slaughter there.
This is the best kind OF evidence that
there are no more hogs in central or
western Kansas. The receipts here
have been falling offFfer some time.
The hogs received in the first week OF
March averaged 1877 pounds, against 268
pounds -averag a year ago, and IA
pounds last month. 1t is worth noting
that cattle have advanced 80 to 40 cents
a hundred pounds in the past week.
Hogs will follow caatle.-K. G.

That was nice little scheme which
the republicans, i'm the house, tried to
work the.other day. Thinking to catch
the alliance members naping, the re-
publicans introduced bill favOring
re-submission: which if passed by the
house would have been promptly killed
by the senate: then the whole republi-
can press of the state would have set up
the howl, didn't we tell you SO? The
alliance people are only whisEeyites in
disguise. But the long haired gentle
men, anticipated their object and
promptly sat down on their cunning
little ruse. Gone again you senatorial
smart aleck. CLAY Center Sun.
Don't worry any about Judge PETER. When
he gets to the senate he will take common
sense views OF things and do large amount OF
useful work. OF course he will introduce his
alliance reform" measure and OF course they
will be smothereG in committee but upon mat
tiers of practical importance he will usually be
found working anE voting 81 what the interests
Of the Peep e, and particularly the western peo-
pie, demand.-Empo ia Republican.
Of course Judge PETERS "reform"
movement Twill be smothered in the
committee" ''Whom the gods would
destroy they first make mad" and as
nothing short of utter and absolute
destruction will ever bring the republi-
can party to its senses, we expect it to
persist in its madnes to the end. -AdvO-

Word comes from Oklahoma that the
territorial organ of the alliance and K.
of l.. is to be launched in the future. A
sompany has been formed, with officers
as follows: McHenry Brooks, pres,
Gutherie; w. H. Barton, sec'y, Payne
Center; j. S. Tucker, Downs, G. E.
Powell, Edmond, Ed r. Gould, Wau-
dell, A. D. Hikok, Moore, constitute
the board of directors. In the light of
the recent elections in Oklahoma, the
peoples party men should be up to
snuff sufficiently to give good, substan-
tial support to state organ, and we
hope the enterprise will succeed. The
name is to be '"The West and South
Nonconformist.
The whole civilized world is shocked
at the arrest OF Brazilian mulatto
who has been living on human flesh,
but in what manner is this ignorant,
depraved man, who ate human beings
