MIC Wov of tho Wife.Boater,

In tho state of New Jersey the way OF
the wife.btater Is growing increasingly
hard. The courts no longer look IN it
as q harmless pleasantly, legitimate di-
version or a wholesome exercise in tho
line of phyaical culture.
What is still more encouraging, arich
wlie.beater backed by powerful friends
has no more consideration than a poor
wiie.beater without friends. In Patter-
SON, on the same day, a rich contractor

We are to compete with British
manufacturers by getting u raw ma
terials free. Great Britain has them
free. Where is the advantage to us3
Great Britain has cheaper labor.
There is the advantage to her. Before
we can be on even terms with Great
Britain We must have labor as cheap as
hers. Where is the advantage to
American labor2
The talk about competing with Great
Britain in the markets Of the world is
all right until you begin to analyze it,
and then It is perceptibly all mocn-
shine.

Tho Horse and the Fodder.

II Senator Vance, of North Carolina,
does not wish to be forced on the DEM
ocratic presidential ticket inr8s96 he
must stop talking. Speaking Of civil
service reform, he says he is dead
against it and adds: ut has always
been my disposition to give the fodder
to the horse that pulls the plow'Ss
This sort Of thing will simply set the
boys crazy. 1t is a figure Of speech
which they will at once understand.
They have been pulling the pillow. Now
they want the fodder. Instead Of get
ting his fork ready to pitch it out to
them the President-elect spends his
days in dalliance with the ducks Of Hog
Island.
The story of The Horse and The Fod-
der has much more attraction for the
boys than the story Of the Fat Gentle
man and the Ducks.

Democratic Nominee for Mayor.


The Register, doubtless speaking for
the mayor, says editorially:
It Is understood that Mayor seabright Is not q
candidate for the honor Of mayor again, except
IN case q certain element should make war upon
him, then he would feel like Tindicatlng him
self.
Well, what is the certain element"
here SO uncertainty referred to, and
what kind Of war is that element likely
to make on the mayor?
This may DO said without fear Of
successful contradiction, that il for any
reason the mayor sails in for rcnomi-
nation he will capture it no matter by
whom hc may be opposed. The mayor
has grip enough on the local Demo-
cratic machine for that
This the Register knows and therefore
will NOT publicly oppose him, although
Mr.. seabright is not the Registers prcfcr-
ence by q long shot.

A plurality of a quarterof a million
out Of moro than fourteen million votes
is not great enough to overshadow the
earth. 1t is the distribution of tho plu-
rality that makes the deep cut and runs
up the electoral vote OF the Democratic
nominee.
The Prohibition vote, much more tho
Populist vote, served the Democracy to
a turn. If the above estimate be APP
proximately correct, as the %INrEILlaEN-
CIR thinks it is, the popular vote Of the
country went againstMr. Cleveland and
his party by $4,000. This takes into
no account the suppressed vote of the
south, which has dropped out OF our
political arithmetic.
There is great announcement inthese
figures. A party which polls six mill
lions and a half votes in a year that was
not a particularly good year, is far from
being in a dying condition. Nor can it
besaid from these figures that the peo-
pie have strongly condemned the poll.

The Junction City papers are try.
ing to revive interest In m tKing the
Kansas river navigable. BY all
means certainly; Of course. Let Us
make the Blue, the Republican, the
Solomon, the Saline and Smoky
Manageable also. Here In SsliDa we
have especial need Of river trsnspor-
tation. True the Smoky Is obstruct-
ed In numerous places by mill
dams but this can be easily averted
and circumvented by having the
boats come up the Saline to the
mouth Of the Mulberry, thence to the
mouth Of Dry Greek, and thence into
the city and beyond. After getting
below town q piece, q canal could be
dug 20 connect Dry Creek with the
Smoky. Dry Greek Is not much Of a
stream for nine months out OF the
twelve, but government appropria-
ton would help to fix IL. Besides II
congress can make money by the
John Davis plan IL can NIL Dry creek
with water the year around. A d.
rect line Of boats from the head wa.
tiers Of Dry creek to New Orleans
would be q great boon to the railroad
oppressed thousands Of this county.
The Mulberry would give US direct
connection with Brookville and
points In southern Lincoln and
northern Ellsworth counties, while
the Smoky would bring the COM
merce of all western Kansas past our
very doors. Junction City papers
may rest assured that they have the
hearty cooperation Of Saline county
in this laudsble enterprise. A gov
eminent appropriation for imProv-
ing rivers covereth multitude of ills.
