suit Mr. Reardon, and when that docu-
ment came up for discussion he took the
floor and made a vigorous protest against
the statements made in relation TO Kan
sas. He stated that he could raise wheat
at profit of 81 an acre if he received %
cents a bushels for 1iIis wheat. he stated
that farming in Kansas paid, and ex-
pla!1ed that there were three kinds of
mortgages in his state-first, those given
legitimately: second, those given for
speculative purposes by pre-emptors;
third. those given in town. He con-
tended that Kansas farmers were pros
porous and that the figures of the ma
tional lecturer were calculated TO do
injury. Bravo. Mr. Reardon, bravo.

APPLES AS MEDICINE
The Phosphorus Found In Thorn IL IN
Admirable Food for the Brain.

The Phosphorus Found In Thorn IL an
Admirable Food for the Brain.
Chemically. the apple is composed Of
vegetable fiber, albumen. sugar, gum,
chlorophyl, malic acid, gallo acid. lime
and much water. says Medical Age.
Furthermore, the German analysts say
that the apple contains a larger per-
centage of phosphorus than any other
fruit or vegetable. The phosphorus is
admirably adapted for renewing the
essential nervous matter, lecithin, of
the brain and spinal cord.
1t is. perhaps, for the same reason.
rudely understood that old Scandinavian
traditions represent the apple as the
food of the gods, who, when they felt
themselves to be growing feeble and in
firm, resorted to this fruit for renewing
their powers of mind and body. Also
the acids of the apple arc of signal use
for men of sedentary habits whose
lives are sluggish in action, those acids
serving to eliminate from the body
noxious matters which,. if retained,
would make the brain heavy and dull,
or bring about jaundice or skis erup-
tons and other allied troubles.
Some such an experience must have
led to our custom Of taking apple sauce
with roast pork. rich goose and like
dishes. The malic acid of ripe apples,
either raw or cooked, will neutralizc
any excess of chalhy matter engendered
By eating too much meat. II is also the
fact that such fresh fruits as the apple.
the pear and the plum. when taken ripe
and without sugar. diminish acidity in
the stomach rather than provoke 1t.
Their vegetable sauces and juices are
converted into alkaline carbonates,
which tend TO counterfeit acidity.

1t seems a hard matter for the French

1t seems a hard matter for the French
to completely divest themselves of their
notions of royalty. Whenever the head
of department in the executive branch
of the governmental of whom hold
seats in the legislative branch-falls to
secure an endorsement of scheme or
proposition he chooses to introduce, he
takes such adverse vote as a vote of
want of confidence in the government,
and forthwith the whole set of cabinet
officers. otherwise ministers, tender their
designations. They have that sort of a
crisis on in the French capital just now.
1t looks silly TO US republicans on this
side. The French want 10 quit such
foolishness before it results in something
serious, which it will, if persisted in,
sooner or later.

Rev. A. S. Embree of Topeka, erst-
while prohibitionist of the strictest
sect, preached a sermon on temperance
last Sunday in which he made the
astounding statement that sit is useless
TO shut our eyes to the facts that in the
hamlets and villages of Kansas there is
no more practical temperance than is to
be found throughout Missouri" He
elso stated that the efforts to enforce the
prohibitory law have been as earnest
and honest as have been exerted by the
officials in the execution of other laws.
The statements created large sized
sensation in the capital city, but the
points raised have not yet been dis
proved.

Five more days and congress will be-
gin its grind again. Innsmuch as it did
nothing during its former eight-months
session the country hopes it will have a
notion to do little something for the
common people before it expires-enough
at least to obviate the necessity for a
special session of the new congress after
the fourth of March. A great deal could
be done in three months if that body
only has mind TO do 1t. One of the
most important measures before it is the
antitrust bill. Let that be passed If
nothing else be done.

The comptroller of the currency s,,r.

The comptroller of the currency sug-
gests two per cent. bonds in place of the
four per cent. bonds as a permanent
basis for bank circulation. There is no
sort Of doubt that two per cent bonds
would be taken very readily for that
purpose, but there is very little hope for
such a thing being done-not as long
as the wildcat party is in control.
1t is doubtful that such scheme would
lie undertaken in any event. A large
portion of the people, without regard to
party, are decidedly opposed TO extend
ing the bonded Indebtedness of the gov
eminent at any rate of interest, or even
without interest. beyond the govern
Inents ability TO cancel it. But aside
from the question of expediency it is a
matter of qualification to know that the
credit of the government is so good, the
result of the wise management of the
Republican party through all its trying
incidents.

in these days Of sore affiiction for him.
Truly in his case misfortunes have not
come singly. Never have troubles come
upon the chief executive of the nation so
frequently and Of as serious nature as have
attended President Harrison the past
twelve months. The affairs of state have
more than once been in most serious
condition, threatening the peace of the
nation. and added TO these the greatest
calamity that can befall man and his
household. the protracted illness and
death of the wife and mother, has been
his portion in full measure. And still
later the grim monster again invades the
family circle and the venerated father
of the recently deceased wife is taken

has borne himself as brave and strong
man, such an one as a sympathetic and
appreciative nation is glad 10 honor and

THE UNEXPECTED HAPPENS.

The history of Kansas from the begin
ming up to the present time has been
cratic in the highest degree. Born in
turmoil, she soon earned the name of
bleeding Kansas" At first by far the
largest portion Of the state was known
as the great American desert, and it was
thought at best it would only be fit for
grazing land for cattle. The early set
tiers were land grabbers who wanted all
the land in sight. But few years
taught them that unproductive land was
improbable, and after many became
land poor the pillow was introduced and
the productions of her soil was a sur
prise. In ten years after the settlers
commenced farming in earnest Kansas
took high rank as an agricultural state,
and last year, to the surprise of all, she
produced nearly as much wheat as any
two states in the Union, and a rich
abundance of other crops, and yet she
has only been cultivated IN spots. From
1882 to 1888 Kansas developed faster than
any other western state, and then
came lull. One year she gave $4,000
Republican majority and at the next
general election wiped it out. One year
is profusion and another it is to say
the least, rather thin. One year the
bread basket of this country, and the
next she Gains down to medicri:y and
allows her energetic citizen to devote
his spare time to politics, or to raising
~ i,cfao1 Of
and at times reasonable. For want of
something else to do, she surprises her
self by developing salt in quantity
enough to supply the world, and if there
should be shortage in gold, silver and
other valuable minerals, we have no
doubt the energetic Kansan could find
them beneath Kansas soil in greater
quantities and richer in quality than
ever before discovered. That nearly
everything is possible to Kansas is
proven by her past history. She started
the rebellion by sending John Brown in
to the south. 4 few days ago she bur-
led every vestige of that great struggle
by electing Confederate soldier as
congressman-at-large over a gallant Fed
eral officer. No ism is too foolish or in
significant for her to spouse; reforms
are her pastime, freaks are her stable
production. Educated, wise and intclli-
gent, she gets ahead Of the procession
and buys all her experience, no matter
how high the price. Geographically
and dramatically the most healthful and
delightful place in the world, her peo
pie propose to cut and try until they
bring about political millennium. One
year she borrows to the verge of bank
ruptcy and the next she has spasm Of
debt paying and subsists upon one meal
q day if needs be to get out of debt. If
our people would only drop theory and
get down to practical work and utilize
their energies, within five years Kansas
would produce 100000 bushels of
wheat 800, 000,O00 bushels of corn and
other crops in proportion. She would
have 100000 people, and would be
the grandest agricultural state i'll the
Union.
