he HAD NO PROOFS.

The Speareville Blade. after two
weeks of consideration, responds to
our observations on the charge made
by that paper against ono Of our
drug stores. The reply is somewhat
facetous and indefinite. but admits
the information to have come from
q prejudiced source. Our contempt
rary, however, seems inclined to
make further investigation as to the
real facts. We hope Bro. Pettyiohn
will take the trouble to do this, and
give us the credit to which we are
entitled. We have not demanded an
apology from our worthy young
neighbor, but rather expressed the
hope that his naturally friendly feel
ing for this city would impel him to
give The real facts and thus help cor
rect the false impression made by the
defamatory paragraph. That such
paragraph is not libelous is due sole
ly to omission of name of druggist.
1t is, however, unjust and injurious
to our city that such false staten ents
be scattered over the eastern states,
or even in other parts of Ford coun-
ty. There is now no city in Kansas
where all laws are more strictly en-
forced than in Dodge City, and all
friends of good government ought to
render words of encouragement rath-
er than disparage by repeating false
staten ents probably devised by per
sons who feel aggrieved at the en-
forcement of the law.

A BILL has been introduced in con
gress by Davis, of Kansas, authoriz-
ing the annual issue of 500, O0O, 600
in treasury notes to pay for postoffice
buildings to be erected at all county
seats in The country and at all other
towns that have 5000 or more inhab-
itants. The introduction Of SO many
different measures for disbursing
large sums Of United States money
will have a tendency to throw dis
credit upon this class of legislation,
and thereby prevent any progress IN
the direction of increasing the vol
ume of paper currency. If the vari-
GUS statesmen who desire to scatter
Uncle Sans paper over the land
would get together and agree upon
something that would meet the ap-
proval of the conservative classes OF
farmers and laborers who are in
moderate circumstances, and unitedly
pull for it, there would be some prob
ability of success. Some OF these
statesmen seem to care more for per
sonal fame than for substantial sue
cess in behalf of the people.

SUCCESSFUL.

From The Reveille.
Our farmers were never in better finan-
cial circumstances than at the present
time. The immense crop of small grain
raised last season has placed many of
them in condition which they have
never before experimentation of having
everything they need. Besides the small
grain raised, many of them raised consid-
cradle hay, and consequently have the
pleasure of driving into town horses fat
and sleek, such as you would see in the
eastern states. While corn is not a sure
crop every year, yet if we were farming
we would make it point to put out a
few acres at least every year, as we be-
lieve if the corn was an entire failure,
there would be fodder enough to pay for
the seed planted.

The Chicago Times of last Satur
day very ingeniously undertakes to
create the impression that there is q
tent ,ency throughout the country to
:attr;bn te suffering in Russia to the
.expense Of her standing army, plac-
ing it at abo.,t $3.50. 100000. In this
connection the Times takes occasion
to draw compariso,cc between the
cost of keeping that army and our
pension roll, and undertakes to aiarm
the readers of that bourbon sheet by
the statement that we are paying
about two thirds of this sum ''for an
army that went out Of existence a
quarter of century ago." Our dem
ocratic leaders are exceedingly de-
voted to the old soldiers when they
can manifest it by attacking an insti-
tuition established for them and their
families, but throw discredit on our
pension system when there is any
possible pretext for doing 80. Those

HAYES CITY HEARD FROM.

we have uO uIISCG lulOImdtlOu
that Hayes City is instigating the at
tacks on our Soldiers Home, and are
inclined to think that some of the
grumblers,at least,are doing SO spon-
taneously, actuated only by general
feeling of discomfort But that our
neighbor is watching these demon
STATIONS with supreme satisfaction,
can no longer be doubted after read
ing the following paragraph from
her paper published last week:
1--WE understand that the Soldiers
Home at Dodge City will soon be aban-
dohed. They have't enough land and
the government will not give them any
more"
While the above extract makes no
allusion to the clamor against the
management, it tends to indicate that
the hope of securing the establish
ment of Home at Hayes City, by
reason of the bill introduced in the
q. S. Senate by the late Senator
Plumb, rests largely upon the pros
pect of the abandonment of the Fort
Dodge institution. The board of
managers of the Dodge Home is com
posed of gentlemen who did more
than any others outside this city to
secure this institution. Without their
assistance Hayes City, with her pow
erful lobby and influential friends in
both branches of our state legislature,
would have succeeded in suppressing
the enterprise until such time as she
could be in the field with a land
grant from the government. The
gentlemen who now constitute this
board stood by us in our hour of
need, with no motive except doing
good to their old comrades and a
feeling that Dodge City was not un-
worthy such an institution. What
has been their reward? The time and
attention they must of necessity de-
vote to supervising the institution is
freely donated. Not dollar do they
receive for this troublesome service.
Yet, every newspaper in this city, ex
cept the GLOBE REPUBLICAN, has open
ed its columns to nom de plume cor
who for any reason feel
inclined to attack the action of the
board. Editorially they never by |
any chance drop q word of commend
alton for the men without whose &C
tive help we would not to-day have
an institution to wrangle over. 1t
must puzzle outsiders to see Dodge
City newspapers pursuing policy so
plainly detrimental to our CONNER
cial interests. But those familiar
with the circumstances of the individ-
uals who operate these journals are
aware of the fact that one has no
source of revenue except public pat
ronage derived from democratic su-
while the other relies for
uture afluence upon the prospect
We greatness of an embryo city some
