Mrs. Lease as Senator.

1t is amusing to see how the old par
ty press is crowdinG Mrs. Lease for
ward for the senate. We are reminded
of the old adage of Jesse Harper's
Find out what the other fellows want
you to do, then don't do it." 1t Is well
to inquire what sinister motive inf1u-
ences those journals that but little
while ago could find no slur too low to
cast at her. 1t is simply because they
believe that while Kansas has been rap
idly progressing toward universal suf-
frage, that, nevertheless, the state of
public sentiment has not developed to
that point where they will give moral
support to the choice of Mrs. Lease as
senator, and that by this means the In
huence OF our growing young party will
be nullilied. They are very liable to be
mistaken IN these calculations, as they
have been In others: but whether they
be or not, the people of Barber county
are not tor Mrs. Lease. There are 9TH
ers who are better statesmen if not bet
ter orators. We have so far heard pref
erences expressed only for John Martin.
Judge DOster, John Breidenthal and
jerry Simpson. The old party press
will probably urge on us some parties
more suitable to them, but in this we
are suiting ourselves.

The Monetary Conference,

III is some consolation to know tina t
the American members of the inter
national conference are doing their
utmost to make it success and es-
tabllsh bimtetalic standard for the
commercial world. AS might be ex-
Dected however, the English members
are doing their utmost to belttle the
entire movement, and advance the
cause of the gold standard. AS England
is the ceditor nation of tie world, we
would be surprised if her mOnied lords
would consent to any other course. 1t
would be a peculiar thing for them to
work against their own interests. This
fact doomed the monetary conference
from the start. 1t may be productive
of much good, however, if it opens the
eyes OF Americans to the fact that
England has made herself financially
our dictator; and if it arouses American
pride and patriotism 10 assert our
financial independence and equality
This can only be done however by an
independent American policy. We
ought to be and must be the supreme
nation of the earth commercially,
financially and in every way indicative
OF progressive CIVILIZATION; and we will
be as soon as we cease our eff you

Hero MOrShin.

If the CresSet doesn' tlIke the short
gasps" in which we call attention to
some measures Of proposed legislation.
hadn't they better save a column or
two of the wOrshipful adulation and
1attery bestowed on their political
Adonis, their mytho-republican young
God of NEUROLOGICAL greatness, and
give gasp or two themselves. We
understand that Col. Motter has said
that If Chester keeps on running he
will beat Jerry yet. The Cresset has
caught at the sage Idea and started a
pOst-mOrtem boom. We think the re-
publican party has already carried the
fad of hero worship to fatal extreme.
Neither G l. Long nor Jerry Simpson
should be given prominence superior to
the principles they represent. Com
pared with the principles and systems
we advocate and the great mass of
mankind represented on either side,
both these gentlemen sink into in
significance.
The election is over. 1t IS now time
to ask what measures of practical legs-
lation may we ask and expect of our
representatives. They are only rep
resentatives to reflect our wishes. To
voice the wishes of their constituents,
they must know these wishes.
70 arrive at intelligent conclusions,
these matters must be set before the
people. They must discuss them, and
think of them.
Intelligence is the foundation stone
of our institutions. Intelligence with
out discussion is something the world
has not seen.
We have suggested some questions
OF practical legislation regardless of
party or politics and we invite our
readers to discuss them pro and con
through our columns. Short, pithy,
pointed articles are always welcome,
and we propose to give a candid
hearing of all sides. Let the republican
press continue to howl calamity and
hold post norton orgies oyer their
pot demigOds or demagogues, it is
time now to consider questions of
