"Without doubt Southwest Kansas is
the greatest wheat country on the
globe,' is the truthful way in which the
visiting editor of the Lincoln Qll.) Her.
aid sings our praises.
Jerry Simpson says the Democratic
party in Kansas is made up of poor white
trash from the south. This is giving it

The Atchison Patriot, (dem..) is urg-

1t is mighty hard to tell the difference
between an Alliance man and a Demo-
