THE same old chestnut keeps on
cropping out, only In different form,
as in former years. The Lesven-
worth Times says down its way the
calamity party mourns the scarcity
of step ladders which are neces-
sary to gather the corn crop.
simultaneously with this comes the
news from Western Kansas that
laborers and axes are 30 scarce that
many farmers fear they cannot cut
enough stalks for fodder.

overwhelming victory for right
principles will wipe out the stain.

our bonds In some instances at far
less than half their par value. Then
the reaction came aud the election
Of last fall again sent the value OF
those securities to their old place.
aud the "plutocrsts" reaped all the
benefit. IL has never been shown
that these two precious patriots 90
were q party to that scheme, but IL
does furnish q well grounded sus.
