Condolences at an Anniversary.

The golden wedding of S. N. Fisk and
wife, highly respected couple, was re-
Gently observed at their home in Brain
tree, Mass. A singular feature of the
occasion was the fact that the services
connected with the affair were held in
the same house and the same room of
the house, and the venerable couple oc-
cupied the same place in the room as
when married fifty years before. There
was the same carpet on the floor and the
same paper on the wall as when the orig
inal wedding took place.-Springfeld

Married at One Hundred and Seven.

On Dec. 81 George Harlan and Mrs.
Kate Woodson were united in marriage
at Rowena, Tenn. The bridegroom is a
hearty man of 107 years, while the bride
blushed under the weight of SO summers.
The groom served in the Mexican war
and the rebellion. Mrs. Woodson is his
fifth wife, The last one he married in
his Tooth year. The groom is the fourth
husband of the bride. 1t is also worthy
of observation that the groom has con-
fined himself to a diet Of buttermilk,
bread and cheese for the past twenty
years. s.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

It has been noticed that in most Of
the states there was no fall election,
and such states hold elections once in
two years. Kansas has two elections
annually. We don't know whether
this is one of the "isms" of Kansas or
not. but it entails a large and useless
expense on the people. All our state,
county and city or township elections
could be held every two years and the
wants of the people subserved as well
as they are under the present system.
The last little county election cost the
people of this county directly and in
directly $4,000. AS all our officers
are to serve two years why not elect
them. all at once, and in the course OF
four years we would save the expense
of three elections. No ono would suf-
fer except the candidate worker aud
many thousands would he saved.

KANSAS PROSPEROUS.

The following Washington dispatch
to tho Chicago Tribune shows how
the calamity-howling Office seekers OF
Kansas have misrepresented the
financial condition of our state in order
TO secure the votes of the toiling mass
es. The real facts are Kansas is as
prosperous as any community In the
country and were she not loaded
down with so many ''cranks" would
outstrip.all her competitors:
WASHINGTON, d. c., Oct. q.
Calamity howlers in Kansas are
confronted with condition OH which
they cannot theorize. While they have
been bemoaning the mortgage indebt-
edness of the state farmers have been
pouring money into banks with which
to pay OF mortgages. Despite all the
talk about lack of funds the bank
statement of Kansas will compare
favorably, according to the very latest
returns, with that of the most pros
porous community in this country.
When business closed Friday, Sept. 25,
there was a surplus fund IN the
national banks Of Kansas far in excess
of anything ever known before in the
history Of the state, being more than
twice the amount required by law.
There are lag national banks 10 Kan
sas, and their reserve is 1888 per cent,
while the law calls for but 10 per cent.
The individual deposits amount TO $l0,-
100000, and everything points to pros
perity.

Opinions from London Papers.

The London Globe says, referring to
the elections just held in the United
States:
"They prove beyond q doubt that
there is popular reaction in favor OF
the Mckinley tariff McKinley's
triumph was the most striking feature
of the elections, but it is doubtful If it
was the most significant. The Re-
pnblicans' success in other states can
only mean that the tariff has not been
found TO work SO badly as at first i'm
agined. The mischief wrought the
British industries will, moreover, help
to convince the American voter that
it must somehow be of good to him
self. We should thus make a great
mistake If we look confidently for a
Democratic triumph in 1892 and Tor
the abandonment of the prohibitive
duties"
The Pail Mall Gazette says that the
result of the elections ''clears the field
for a Distinct trial of the strength of
Mr.. Harrison and Mr.. Cleveland, with
strong probability that Mr.. Cleve-
land will win"

II the tariff men and anti-tariff men
would unite in bringing eastern fac
tories into the western states they
could occupy their time to good adj
vantage. What we want is home
market for our products, and the priv
ilege of buying manufactured articles
at home. If protective policy is
good for the United States it is good
for the western states. IF we had our
proportion of manufactures in the
west we would save 1000 or 1900 miles
of freight tariff on what we sell and
what we consume. Nearly all manu-.
featured articles can be made in the
west as cheaply as in the east aud it is
about time some of them were follow
ing up in the wake of the consumer.
1t is time all western farmers should
think Of buying western made ma
chinery. 1t is time all western people
should unite in forcing the eastern
manufacturer to come west with his
factory and save the western producer
the heavy freight charges which he
now pays ga comm and a gwine."

THE INDIAN TERRITORY.

1t has been but two years since the
Peoria and Miami Indians received
their allotment of lands in severalty
aud yet they are all putting improve
ments on their farms that no Ohio
farmer would be ashamed of. At the
present time the following members OF
the Miami tribe are building substan-
tial and imposing farm houses and
barns: Rev. Tbos. F. Richardville,
Jas. Demo, G.. s. WEIGH, Manford
Pooler, Louis Miller, Joseph Prinkle
and Mrs. Kisco, besides quite num-
Der west of Tar creek whose names
we were unable to learn. The Peorias
have nearly all comfortable homes and
some Of them are building larger barns
than we find in Kansas or Missouri.
The log cabin and the straw covered
shed have given way to structures that
would gladden. the heart of Penn
sylvania Dutchman and we congratu-
late our neighbors on their taste as
we'll as their prosperity. Many of
them fought against the allotment of
lands and took them under protest,
but we doubt If single member Of
any of the tribes from the Missouri
state line to the Neosbo river could be
induced to 60 back to their old condi-
tons. 1t is to be hoped that within a
short period of time all the Indians
living within the borders of the Indian
territory will have their lands allotted
in scveralty, drop all tribal relations
and become citizens of the United
States. The territory should not be
divided; it is just large enough for a
state and already has the requisite
number of citizens TO gain admittance
to the Union; it is full Of natural re-
sources and within few years after
allotment would develop into one of
the richest Of the western states.

enter any port in the empire, if it
is accompanied by certificate
that the animal was in healthy
condition. This will open mar
ket to the hog raisers Of the west,

great utility in fattening pork for
Europe. Give the United States
an opportunity, and the people Of

"WILL Corvallis grow?" asked a

as Corvallis is, and that has few
progressive moneyed men, and an
unsurpassed location, with popu-
lar public institutions, and excel
lent railroad transportation facili-
ties to the sea and other parts, and
real and prospective manufactures
is very likely to keep abreast of
the times. Every property holder
would find it to his advantage to
be busy in the movement for pro
gression. Unity of action is a
potential element in enterprise.

are in fact frauds.
