But they tank up" just the same.

KANSAS WEAKNESS.

Senator o. III. Bentley received mott
fication, from Lieutenant Governor Felt,
that he had been appointed a delegate to
the Kansas City Commercial convention,
to represent Wichita and this section OF
the state.
While we congratulate Senator Bentley
on his appointment, we take occasion to
say that the Kansas legislature, in lend
ing itself and becoming sponsor and tool
of Kansas City, in that places efforts to
beat the commercial convention already
successfully organized of commercial
men, and the next meeting for which
had been designated for Denver. did a
very small and very contemplate thing.
The other organization had proved an
undoubted power and success, but it was
not in the interest of the Missouri town,
which never has been but little else than
a toll gate for Chicago; but was in the in
terest of all the communities looking to
the Gulf for seaboard. Kansas City
proved monkey enough to make a cats
paw of the legislature which convened
in Topeka, which legislature for years
past has been more in the interest of the
Missouri town than in all the towns of
Kansas combined. In this instance it
steps in, in the name of the state of Kan
sas, and asks twenty other state, Off
cially, to join Kansas in boom for
Missouri town, and, in the meantime,
to kill off another and more deserving
convention organized and sustained
wholly by the business interests of the
Transmissouri country.
This disagreeable state of things comes
largely Of the fact that our state capital
is but slightly removed suburb of Kan
sas City, Mo.

vandalia and Pennsylvania Lines.

Stridng Toward Perfection.
Although already remarkable for its
magnificence the Pullman Car service on
the Pennsylvania and Vandaiia lines be-
tween ST. Louis and the east has been
enhanced by the addition of five new
sleeping cars, "Abronia," ''Anemone,"
''Azalea, Glover and ''Crocus," which
are proof of the attainment of a mark
nearer the perfection point in luxurious
equipment. Train No. 90 leaving ST.
Louis at $40 a. IN. will carry one or the
other of these latest additions each day,
also dining car. Passengers will arrive
in Pittsburgh or Harrisburg early the
next morning, and in Baltimore, Wash
ington, Philadelphia or New York early
in the afternoon.

Saloons to the 'FRONT.'


There is soon to be an election. Our
liberties are in danger! Let saloon
men and topers remember that eternal
vigilance is the price of liberty. Rally
then, every friend of cheap whisky;
from the man behind the bar to the
drunkard in the gutter. Ye saloon
keepers get out your fine horses and
carriages, turn out your hunting dogs,
familiar with the cent of all your pat
rons, put them on the trail, bring out
every last man and make him vote.
See that they obey their masters.
Look out for the w. C. T. U. They are
doing all they can, but thanks to Gam
brinus, they cant vote. But then,
they may be able to control the vote
of soft hearted sons, still tied to their
mothers apron strings watch them
every vote counts.
Dear patrons, one and all let me re-
mind you, that you pay particular at
tention to what are called business
men. Purchase all the dry good, gro
ceries, hardware, boots and shoes etc.
that they will trust you for, manage to
tell them that if this town goes dry
you will never staggerin its streets
again you will trade where people are
free to drink. That will fetch some of
them. The thought of losing trade is
more heart rending, than the sight and
sound of all the tears and cries of poor
starving freezing wives and children.
Our enemies are the women preachers
temperance cranks and few, very few,
respectable church men, who have
given up all hopes of doing anything
to stop our business. Stop our bust
ness indeed why ours is the only bust
ness at which a man can prosper, sure.
If our business could be stopped all
over the world there would be panic
in hell over the falling off of new
corners.
Let any reasonable man pass along
our streets and witness the jolley
crowds of young and old men, full OF
fun and laugh, of whisky, and swearing
and then ask himself if he can find It
in his heart to vote against the source
of all this happiness.
