WE EXTEND THANKS.

We take occasion to extend thanks
to the Emporis Republican for re-
producing our notice that Chairman
Breidenthal will receive wheat as a
contribution to the campaign fund.
Not that such publication will par
ticularly extend the information, be-
cause the ADVOCATE reaches &c great
per cent. Of the people Of Kansas
that the limited circulation of the Re-
publican cannot possibly reach a
Peoples party man who is not a
reader Of the ADVOCATE; but it shows
a spirit Of generosity that was hardly
to be expected from so bitter an oppo-
nent. True the Republican makes
some comments intended to discour-
age the contributions, but when il
figures out the large amount Of money
that our chairman might realize from
this source, and then assures the peo-
pie that he will use a part of it to
help elect l.. d. Lewilling governor,
and another part to help elect "thst
rebel" W. A. Harris, to congress, and,
in short, it viii all be used to secure
the election Of the ticket nominated
by the Peoples party convention, we
can overlook the little underCurrent
of sarcasm that is intended to run
through the whole comment upon our
brief notice. The Republican has
hit the nail squsrely on the head in
stating that Mr.. Breidenthal will use
the vast sums he may receive through
contributions Of wheat for the success
Of the Peoples ticket. We intend to
bury the remnant Of the republican
party in Kansas this year 80 deep
that Gsbrieps trumpet will not resur-
rect it, and we expect the "great pros
perity" that is flowing in upon our
farmers in consequence Of their inn
mense wheat crop and the munifcent
price it commands, to contribute to
this result.

DISTINGUISHED COMRADES"

In the Capitals report of the re-
union at Baxter Springs we are told
that the old soldiers were addressed
by a number of distinguished COM
rades." Here are the names of some
of them: Governor Humphrey, Sem
ator Perkins, George 7. Anthony,
Major j. K. Hudson, Lew. Hanback,,
A. B. Campbell, Judge Botkin.
Yes that is distinguished crowd;
no one will dispute it.

In an editorial note last week call
ing the attention of editors Of reform
papers to the so-called Wall street
circular fake first published in the
Chicago Daily Press, We wrote that
"the thing originated in the fertile
brain of T. W. Gilruth, who held a
position for a time on the editorial
staff of the Press" The Compositor
transformed the name into Gilmore.
We desire TO make this correction lest

Well, if the recent experience at

America, we would prefer to have it

because also the fraud should be

JOSEPH K. HUDSON and Governor
Humphrey have kissed and made up.
The affecting ceremony took place at
the Baxter Springs reunion, and it is
presumed that Joseph will now take
back what he said about Humphreys

his services and expenses from the

PERHAPS Jerry Simpson spoke from personal
experience when he said that Kansas men sell
their honor In the fierce and terrible struggle of
Ifs.-EmpOrid Republican.
The Republican speaks from habit
when it intimates that Jerry said any
such thing. 1t is simply a lie, and

sOM1 Of our republican exchanges

Some Of our republican exchanges
seem to think that Peoples party men
are hoping that Mr.. Ingalls, will be
quarantined until after election. This
is a mistake. We have a faint recol-
lection that Mr.. Ingalls, was in the
campaign, or thought he was, in 1890.
No, don't quarantine him. Hurry
him home and get him on the stump
as soon as possible. eve need him

GEORGE r. ANTHONY's FREIGHT
RULING,

Geo. I. Anthony's freight rate order
for the benefit Of those Of our read
ers who might not understand it's
full force and effect upon the COM
mercisl interests Of Topeka, and il
Illustrative Of the narrow walls between
which they would be confined.
The rate on sugar coming from the
Missouri river to Topeka merchants
and reshipped by them to HeringtOn,
is 80 cents, while the rate on the same
article to Sslina and reshipped to
Herington would be only 70 cents,
although the haul by way Of Sslins
would be $50 miles, and but 131 miles
by way of Topeka. Wichita and
Hutchinson would have the same rate
az Topeka, Notwithstanding the dis
tanCe from the Missouri river and re-
turn is 3O2 miles.
White City is sixty-six miles west
from Topeka, and sixty-three miles
east from Sslina. The total haul by
way of Topeka is 116 miles, but by
way Of Salina is 149 miles. Yet the
rate via Topeka and via Sslins would
be the same.
Probably Mr.. Interested Citizen"
can explain why the wholesale grocer
Of Wichita or Sslins is entitled to
less than half the rate per mile that
is given to Topeka.
Emporis would Of necessity have
the same carload rate as Wichita and
Hutchinson Of Is cents on sugar, and
innoCently would operate as a barrier
to TopekSs business west Of Burlin-
game, only twenty-six miles away.
Emporia's rate from point OF origin
alton to Burlingsme would be the
same as Topeks's, yet che distance is
seventy miles further via Emporis.
West of Strong City the field would
belong to Wichita and Hutchinson
exclusively. Where, then, outside Of
Shawnee county, would Topeka, the
largest city in the state, sell her
goods3 She cannot go east, for the
rates are against her at the first town
out. She cannot go west, north or
south further than a few miles. Yet
this is called "equalizationp Is it not
the most ruinous discrimination
Mr.. Interested Citizen" can prob
ably "rise and explain" and at the
same time he might also explain an
other little matter.
In one effusion he asserts that the
retailers OF Wichita and the adjacent
country would receive their benefit
from Anthony's rates through the
Wichita jobbers selling them goods
so much cheaper. Last spring for a
few weeks the jobbers there enjoyed
q through rate from the railroads al
most equivalent to that ordered by
the commissioners, and these jobbers
by a private arrangement between
them, charged the Wichita retailers
! cent per pound more for sugar than
they charged others of their custom
