years ago and saw the stacks of wheat
straw burned. wondered that the straw
was not utilized by making it into paper.

Upon inquiry learned that the fiber of
the wheat straw was not suitable for pa

over the tall fields of rye and read of the
grand cheap power for factory purposes
in Dodge. 1 again wonder if the rye straw
cannot be made into paper. Rye is one

there is. here is the place where it ought

Exchanges in distant states have been
quick to take advantage of unfavorable
comments on Kansas by campaign
speakers and newspapers. Two weeks
ago our esteemed contemporary. the
Times, made the remark that corn was
about ruined, and that one week more
such weather would put it in condition
to make less than five per cent yield.
Now comes an Oregon exchange and
says: "Kansas seems to be doomed
state, as far as agricultural pursuits are
concerned. Every report from that state
gave very flattering reports of all kinds.
but late advices state that hot winds
have caused such great damages that not
more than one half crop can be harvest
ed" We do not know whether this par
ticular item was the result of the Times
dismal wall or not, but it is quite certain
some such croaker in Kansas is response
bic for the false conclusion arrived at by
our Oregon exchange. If our Dodge
City contemporary above mentioned had
visited the dwelling of Hugh Swan, a few
miles south of the city, and feasted upon
some of those long, plump, well filled
roasting ears, had inspected the field from
which it was taken aud observed the tall
thrifty stalks covered with fresh. dark
green leaves, each bearing from one to
three silk lecked ears of Indian corn. he

corn crop in Ford cOuny is not generally
what it was last year. But this is rather
owing to the fact that most of the land

made crop that never has been sur
passed in any country. Wheat raising

IN DESPERATE STRAITS.

Our esteemed contemporary. the
Times, is evidently in desperate straits
for material to use as campaign thunder
this fall. Having plutocrat money
lender as candidate for governor and a
mortgage company's attorney for repre-
sentative, this political harlequin cannot
consistently resort TO his old cry of
'.down with the plutocrats and money
lenders" but is now attacking our can
didate for state treasurer on the ground
that he is a Santa Fee locomotive engi-
neer. and NJ. w. Sutton because he at
tends to lawsuits for the same company.
Bro. VOORHEES, is now engaged, not only
in stirring up opposition to railroads,
but to exciting the people against those
who earn their bread by the hazardous
toll of operating trains, running lOcomO-
tives, or doing any other railroad work.
He admits that if he had lawsuit to
fight he would hire Mr.. Sutton in pref
erence to B. F. Milton or any other at
torney in this city, yet for the public
service, Mr.. Milton is good enough.
The fact is Mr.. Sutton, Mr.. Lynch
or any other person who does work for
a railroad is paid no more than such
service is worth.
The company hires them because it
needs such services as they are qualified
to perform, is glad to get them to do the
work, and the idea that man becomes
unfit to fill offices of trust because he has
been employed in railroad work is sim
ply ridiculous. No employed labor is
more Independent and fearless of their
employers than railroaders. and if "A
had designs against the peO-
pie, their own employees wonld be the
last class of people from which to select
tools to accomplish such purpose.
When it comes to buying votes in the leg
islature they prefer to deal with cheap
er grade of material. a briefless barris-
ter is much more to their purpose in
such matters than successful practi-
toner who can make $4,000 on sim
gle case. Men of ability who look after
matters pertaining 10 legislation for

Of United States Senator, on account of

KANSAS BRED CARP.
Superior in Flavor And Quality to The
Same Variety Grown in Ohio.

Ben Cox, of the artesian region in
Meade county, near Fowler, was in the
city this week doing business with oul
flour mill. Mr.. Cox corroborated oul
position on the wonderful possibilities
for fish culture in this climate. Two
years ago one of his neighbOrs through
Mr.. COx's assistance, secured a supply
of German carp to stock pond of water
made by artesian we'll overflow. Re-
Gently the water was drawn away from
the pond for the purpose of irrigatiDg
and left the fish insufficiently protected
and Mr.. Cox was advised lie might take
what fish he wanted to his own pond
which was well supplied from his ar
tesian well. Mr.. Cox put some wet straw
in lumber wagon, took box to dip up
the finny creatures and waded in. He
hauled several wagon loads of fine fat
fellows from one foot to yard in length,
throwing gunny sacks over them to pre-
vent their Hopping out. In spite of this
precautiOn many of the restless beauties
did escape. Whenever their exit was
noticed the wagon was stopped and the
reereants gathered in, but more than an
hour after the last wagon load was haul
ed Mr.. Cox happened to pass oyer the
same road and foun0 quite number
lying in the dry, dusty highway. Much
to his surprise they were still alive and
Kicking Procuring Il gunny sack
these fish were taken up and transferred
to tank of fresh water, where
they were soon lively. as crickets. Mr..
Cox says the idea which seems to pre-
vail in some quarters that German carp
is not a palatable dish, does not apply to
this variety when born and bred in west
ern Kansas. His table is supplied with
fish every day, comprising some OF the
choicest kinds known on the eastern
slope of the rocky mountains, and none
are more tender and delicious than the
german carp bred in the ponds and
lakes of western Kansas, not only is the
flavor of these carp all that could be de-
sired, but their flesh is rs free from the
bones as that of the cat fish which
abOunds in the Arkansas river, and
forms a desirable staple article of diet.
Gentlemen from Ohio tell us carp grown
in ponds there are gristly. rank and
unsavory, and the flesh one mass of
bones. Why there should be such diff
ference we only conjecture. 1t may be
the atmosphere, the altitude, or the
character of the soil in which they fire.
quently bed themselves in the lake bot
toms. Mr.. Fasig's testimony in favor of
the carp being exceedingly desirable
food also cOrrObOrates that of Mr.. Cox.

The Potency of Fashion.

In all ages each class of society has
striven to initiate the habits of the one
above it; and each household is uncon-
sciously pattern from which another
tries to mold its life. Efforts are being
made to elevate the mental, physical
and moral standard of the lower classes,
but there is one lever more powerful, if
rightly used, than any other, and that
is fashion. If economy instead of ex-
travagance were the fashion, the lesson
taught by the rich would be quickly
learned by the poor, and thus a great
addition to the national prosperity
would be secured.-Demorest.

government ASSISTANCE Is Buying homes.
In Belgium a law has been in force
nearly three years to help provide
wholesome dwellings for laboring men
and assist in making the men owners
of their dwellings. In order to effect
these ends taxes on property were re-
duced or allowed, and the state and
savings bank was authorized to employ
part of its funds to make loans for build
ing or buying such houses and to insure
the lives of the owners, in order to hold
a greater security for the repayment of
advances. In order to facilitate this
loaning business the bank encouraged
the formation of building and loan as
sociations authorized to do no other
business but build, buy or sell laborers'
dwellings. The transactions of these
societies were, however, greatly him
dered by reservations made in the law,
to abolish which the Belgian govern
ment has just introduced in the legisla-
tive assembly proposals for additions to
the law removing the obstacles and
abolishing all government and legal
charges upon documents registered by
these societies.-Chicago Herald.
