1ODAE'S PARAEE.

To-day is Peoples party day in Wichita.
and if the enthusiasts of that party are to
be relied on there will be q, 600 people in
liue in the parade and 100 loads of wheat
which shall be sold and the money given 10
the campaign fund. The more conservative
claim that there will be not more than
il. 900 people in line aud not more than
sixty five loads of wheat. Special rates of
half fare went into effect yesterday morn
ing on all the railroads leading into the
city for a distance of 100 miles in every
direction, and this fact coupled with the
fact that the farmers are not so busy at
this time, insures biz crowd, for
the blowout has been extensively adver-
rtised by the committee: besides special
personal request has been made OF all the
leaders for miles around TO bring delega-
tons at any cost. The committee is leav
ing 20 stoue unturHed TO get up an i'm
mense procession, and it was generally re-
ported on the streets yesterday that the
committee were Offering men 81 each TO
march ia the procession. To he just and
fair no credence is given to this report; il
was evidently based on the fact that Peo-
pies party men aud Democrats. who are
laborers. viii be paid their days wages By
the committee for attending the rally.
1t is said that there will be seven bands
in the procession. Judge Babb will be

PENSION POLITICS.

While Commissioner RAUM, who di-
Nersilies his pension business with re-
frigerator incidents, is being interro
gated, it may be noted that he has dis
bursed pensions in his own state in no
such proportion as its politically uncer-
tain neighbor has obtained. Illinois
has had two commissioners of pensions
of different politics, and yet its ratio
of pensions is hardly half as great as
that Of Indiana. Illinois had $1,000
more soldiers in the war than the do
main of DUDLEY and HARRISON, and
yet the latter has 5000 more names on
the pension rolls. In the former about
] in 6 is n pensioner, and in the latter,
] in 49, There is no complaint that
Illinois has been neglected more than
the average OF states, nor is there any
supposition that 2 smaller proportion
of the soldiers come into the pension
range. Indiana has been close state.
and the Republicans have. except for
one term, had control Of the pension
business. There are fanciful theories
advanced in explanation, but the inyes-
tgati on should gather some useful in
formation as to the part politics has
PLAYED in the matter.

TURN THE RAscALs orT

Col. WEIGHT wants 10 be elected
mayor, not for selfish reasons. but for the
good he can do. Onr city government.
he declares. is-a pest hole of corruption
and Ineffieiency. and this gives him a
mission important enough 10 eatitle him
to victory. He wants to be elected
mayor. so that he can turn out the drOnes
and rascais. This is the good he pro-
poses TO do.
Who are these drOnes aud rascajs who
are stealing aud squandering the public

JoHN CLARK, the present chief OF po-

thus. and thus also feel the great ma

FREEMAN and JEREMIAH G. PRENDER-
CAST, who are directly responsible for
our totally useless fire department, will
have to step down and out. These
men have been sleeping in their fas
berths, living on politics for years, until
they have grown to regard their posi-
lions as their own private property, to
be used in iusolent disregard of the
public needs and rights. 1t is time that
they were rudely awakened. Muscle,
perseverance, high courage, Intelligence,

the Hercules who will clean out these

STATE PRESS POLITICS.

The Belle Plaine Herald demands that the
typical Western man for presidential timber
shall bail from west of Chicago.
In the unbiased opinion of the ST. Peter
Herald Pease, of Anoka. is injecting 100
much ipecac into the MeGill boom.
According TO the Ortouville Headlight
Knale Nelson's boom for governor sprouIed
100 soon for this years backward spring.
The Waseca Radical has a good word 10
say for John A. johnson. editor OF the St
Peter Herald. as q candidate for congress- in
the Second district
Says the Anoka Union: Nothing seems
to suit Senator Washburu better than TO turn
down his truest and best friends. It's a long
lane that has no turn.
Says the Waseca Radical: GOV Merriam
has found ont the people. want Davis re-
turned as United States senator. The gov
ernor can see through milestone after his
nose is placed in the hole OF the stone
In saying that the Republicans OF Anoka
are in anything but harmonious condition,
land IL would seem as If the breeeh were
widening every day" perhaps EDITOR Gran
vile s. Pease knows what he is talking
about.
This from the Granite Falls Journal
Merriam says he is not after Office. but
wants 10 be allowed 10 join the ranks and 90
to work lie will be either in the RANKS or
entirely outside of them whether he goes to
work or not. >"
SAYS the Taylor's Fails Journal: Much
outside interest is manifested in the ST. Paul
election next Tuesday, ii being generally
considered that the election OF Smith III
sures the election of a Democratic congress
man in this district"
The Taylor's Falls journal says The
'dea n watch has been set at the Mime
ap0lis national convention hall and here
after only those with passes Will be allowed
to enter its sacred preeiacts.n When doe:
the execution come off!
The Blue Earth City Post arrives at the
conclusion that THE Nelson boom for gov.
ernor has now reached that stage in its retro
grade movement that all il needs now Is to be
let entirely alone TO pass away quietly long
before the coming state convention meets. y
The Preston Times believes that "Mer-
RAMS bitter opposition to exGov. McGnl
should result in that gentlem ms unanimous
nomination. Bits politics are so utterly
rotten and disreputabe that hs hates a man
with McGiirs political integrity much as
Satan does the heaven from which he was
hurled
The Republican senatorial question IS
sized up by the ST Peter Tribune as follows
Merriam claims he is not candidate for
senatorial honors. but wait and see Don't
YOU believe it, In our estimation he Is more
anxious than anything else TO create a
division in the Mi nesota Legislature that
will make it impossible to nominate G. X.
Davis aud then come in as dark horse for
the position"

WOMEN WHO VOTE.

The women's vote at the Kansas elec.
ton was very light. Women can hardly
expect men TO take much interest in

more interest in it themselves. Sioux

weaknesses. as is demonstrated anew by
Gladstone, who declares himself in favor
OF woman suffrage but against the grant
