what political parties dio they come?
Why do you wish 10 break them up?
Surely they will go back into the old
parties what the saloon buns are to
the county candidates cheap for
cash. Are not the old parties con-
taminated in buying Them up?
Please give us aninstance where they
were bought for cash, and the price.
And give an instance of their lying,
and stealing from any one. Tell us
when and where they have held a re-
ligious meeting.
You say they require a religious
qualification OF applicants in requiring
belief in a Supreme Being thus
making them a religious society. We
supposed that all men wise and 9th
erwise knew that simple belief in n
Supreme Being is not allegiance to
any religious persuasion whatever.
This requirement is simply to protect
themselves against fools, idiots and
knaves. You must be mistaken.
You want to know what.the party has
done in a political way Well they

There are several very strong argu-

proposition. In the first place, the re-
suit of the experiment OF extending
free delivery to small cities is such as
to warrant the conclusion that the
service would pay. This extentior
of the free delivery service has
increased business sufficiently to cove
the entire extra expense. In tn

A Legislative Endorsement.

A law was passed last winter in
Minnesota affecting the sale Of alum
baking powders. The interest excited
by the bill when proposed led to a
long and thorough investigation by a
legislative committee of the qualities
of all the baking powders sold in that
State, with the result that the Royal
was shown by very positive evidence
from the State Chemist, DR.. Drew,
and others, to be the purest, strong
est and in all respects the best baking
powder in the market.

A GREAT SHOCK TO KANSAS PEOPLE.

THE REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR TO FILL THE
vACANCY-wILL INGALLS, BE THE MAN?
Topeka. Kan, Dec. 2O-The news Of the death OF
Senator Plumb was q great shock to his friends IN
Kansas. no one knew that he had been ailinS, and
the vigorous campaign he made last fall in the in
erests Of his party seemed 10 be convincing proof that
his robust constitution in the best Of condition.
When the campaign opened last fall the Republican
party In Kansas was in straits. The fall before
1t had lost everything to the Farmers Alliance-a
seat in the United States Senate six out of seven seats
in the House, all but Governor and LeutenantGov-
ernor on the State ticket, and most OF the county
Offices. The farmers practically controlled the state
when the last campaign opened.
Senator Plumb. while having no direct personal In
teres at stake In the election went into the campaign
with vlgor and enthusiasm characteristic OF what
ever he undertook. He stumped the State nom one
end TO the other, being obliged 20 undergo all the
fatigues OF country campaign. His work Is gen
orally credited with having been the prime cause OF
fe overwhelming defeat OF the Alliance and the Re-
publican victory. When the Senator left Kansas Tor
Washington he was certainly in the best Of spirits and
seemed to be in the best of heath. The announce
ment of his death was therefore great shock
1t is no exaggeraon to say that Mr. Plumb was the
most popular man in Kansas. He was the idoi Oh
his own party, and was highly regarded by his poHr
ical opponents. AS man lie had the respect ana
admiration Of all Kansans without regard to political
beliefs.
The Kansas law provides that In the event Of the
death OF Senator the vacancy shall be filed by the
Governors appointment until the next meeting OF the
legislature The next Legislature does not meet until
a year from now. Governor Humphrey was seen by a
representative of the Associated Press this afternoon
lie had already been informed Of Senator Plumbs death
by private dispatch. lie greatly shocked mt the
news and said that he had given thought as TO the
Senator's successor. lie would OF course maAe IN dP
pointment to fill the vacancy, but lie had not con,
sidered any individual The vacancy might be hlled
at special meeting OF the Legislature. but In view Oh
the fact that the present Legislature Is under control
OF the Farmers Alliance and that the Executive Is
Republican such course IS out of consideration.
The name Of ex-senator ingalls, IS already proni-
neny mentioned by the politicians he having been the
nominee OF the party caucus at the tme senator iener
was elected In fact, other name has received any
mention 1T all. go , -,
The fact that the term OF the appontee expires when
the next Legislature ccnyenes Will make the next eiec
ton in Kansas particularly interesting for the Legs-
urc elected then will have the naming OF senator &
The Farmers' Aance will doubtless redoube their
energy in the attempt to give Senator Peher col
