Lincoln and the Pig.

From the New York Witness.
One of the greatest things Abraham
Lincoln ever did, was to pull a pig out
of hole Driving over very bad road,
on which the mud was so thick and
heavy that the horse could ouly proceed
very slowly, he passed pig stuck in the
mud in hole. After going half a mile
further Mr. Lincoln stopped his horse
and said TO his companion, Il don't
know how you feel but ! must so back
and pull that pig out. So he got out,
trudged back through the mud, emanci-
pated the pig, and then returned to the
wagon and continued his journey. The
man whose conscience would not allow
him TO leave even a pig 20 suffer was a
man TO whom God could lntrust the
duty o. emancipatIng four million slaves.
Be YOU as faithful IN that which Is least,
and God will see that you have oppoT
tuniiies to do greater works as soon as
you are ready for them.

1t is said that John Martin of Topeka
has been offered the nomination of cir
cult judge of that district by the Peo-
pies party, but that he has not indicated
whether or not he wants or will accept
it. He is probably waiting to learn
from Mr.. Whitney of New York, Cleve-
lands chief lieutenant, whether or not
his acceptance of the nomination from
that party would interfere with his rec
ognition and preferment by Cleveland
in case of his election. As for that,
however, the doughty old politician need
not bother himself: the Populist nomi-
nation is about as near an office as he is
liable to get out of this years campaign.

The state board of health desires the
attention of parents called to the impor-
lance of having their children vaccin-
ated, who have not been successfully,
before the beginning of the fall term of
school. 1t is a trite old saying that an
ounce of preventive is worth pound
OF cure. Vaccination is comparatively
harmless, inexpensive and infallible pre-
ventive against that loathsome disease,
small pox, and every person should have
the benefit of such protection. There is
little doubt that it also affords more or
less protection against all eruptive all
ments. Parents cannot afford to neg
lect so important a matter.

AT Sea Without a Rudder.

From the Kansas City journal
One reason why the Democrats are
anxious for new issue this year is be-
cause all their old catch phrases about
the tariff have been worn out. An
essential thing about campaign of de-
ception is that the people shall not have
had time to fully investigate the ques-
lions at issue The fight on the Mchin-
lev law In 1890 was successful only
because the law had not been tested.
The attempt of the Democratic man
ayers to run away from the tariff issue
this wear shows plainly that they are
full coguiZant of this fact.

The Inter Ocean says that the preach
ers take their vacations but the devil
never does. The maker of the statement
probably meant no personal disrespect
TO the preachers. but the assertion
smacks strongly OF sacrileee The
preacher IS not divine, to lie sure. but
they represent the Divine IN 9 measure.
And, besides, it isn't fair TO charge the
human with powers of endurance equal
to the demoniacal-the prince of the
power of the air Fact is, the preacher
needs more sympathy and encourage
ment and merits less criticism.

1t is understood now that the principal
reason why the Democrats and Popu-
lists have adopted the force bill Lugaboo
as their campaign Cry is to divert atten-
ton from their own platforms as much
as possible, particularly the financial
planks. The one declares in favor of
wildcat banks and the other for sub
treasures, andsoforth. Both of those
propositions are so absurd and are re-
garded with 50 great disgust and con-
tempt by all fair minded and intelligent
people that those who had the short
sightedness or want of regard for the
welfare of the country to propose them
would now wipe out the record and hide
behind a shadow.

follows:
1.-THE Herald is not pleading the cause
of the Republican party, but it knows
that not one dollar of capital has ever
been kept out Of Kansas because it was
Republican state The state has grown
up under Republican administration and
if that party has ever interfered serious
ly with the prosperity of the state we do
not know when it was. Give the devil
his due. The Republican party of Kan
sas is no worse than the Republican
party Of the United States. 1t is simply
"A chip from the old block Never mind
about platforms. Put theories aside and
let Us talk about conditions. Aside from
the dark years of grasshoppers and
drouth Kansas has prospered until
few years ago. How much capital has
poured into the state during the last
two years? How much real estate has
changed hands? How many land buy

be with Kansas for two years more if

A Sure Thing.

From the Atchison Globe.
There is a good deal of the hog about
the Peoples party. The Democrats en-
dorsed its state ticket entire, but the
Peoples party managers have refused to
return the compliment in district and
county conventions. The result of this
will be that the Democrats will become
disguised, and oppose the state ticket of
the Peoples party. The managers of
the new party seem to have very little
political sense, and the instincts of pigs.
