Passing of the Sod Hnnse.

The day Of the sod house in Barton
county is gone. We know of only one
within radius of miles of this place
that is occupied. This one is pIastered
inside and out, and unless you approach
very closely you would suppose IL to be
a frame building painted white. Ten
years ago and less there were two sod
houses within quarter of a mile of
the depot in town, now large frame
dwellings replace them. On the roads
running north there were several.
Everybody remembers John Bauer's: it
was well built with shingle roof. and
all sod house builders took il as their
pattern. John now has large frame
house. Then there was Ben Goodrich's
combination house. Il one room frame
house stood beside a long, low sod roof
which covered a cellar. The roof was
raised off the ground about i've feet ON
sod wall, and it was the only sod
cellar in the vicinity One mile north
were three OF the old pattern. They
are vacated now and owners occupy
good frame dwellings. Northwest in
a German settlement there were mant
sod houses and barns. but we know. of
none that stand now. The onward
march Of Kansas grit has eradicated
The once famous sod shanty on claim,
and he who toiled diligently TO break
the prairie while the rattle snake
hissed under his feet and the antelope
srazed. fearlessly near him, has been
rewarded and now occupies a palatial
dwelling, enjoying ali that he desires
unmolested by the bowling coyote

George w. Childs, the most loyal
friend that General Gnant ever had,
wrote the following about Grover
Cleveland and published it in his we'll
known newspaper, the Philadelphia
Ledger:
I'm his private pension business the
president (Cleveland) has been engaged
in correcting the errors of congress. He
has done it, at the risk of having his
motives misrepresented, his conduct
denounced, his patriotism questioned,
his popularity impaired: but conscious
of being right, he has gone absolutely
on in the faithful discharge of his duty.
That is what he should be encouraged
to continue to do, and by no others
more than the brave men who fought
the battles of their country, and who
should now stand shoulder to shoulder
with the commander ii-chief in the
army in his efforts to make the pension
list a roll of honor and every pension
certificate token of yalor and patriot
ism,''

Cash or Credit.

Credit is as ball and chain around
the leg of the buyer, the retailer, the
Jobber and all who are parties thereto.
1t is a load, bond which fetters all
who practiceiit and in the majority of
cases inevitably ends in disaster and
misery. 1t is perhaps impossible, in
many cases. to dispense with it entire
ly, and yet we know that with the ex-
erclse of little patience and resolUte
self-denial even this has been done to
the credit and happiness of all con-
cerned. In buying on credit one gen.
orally realizes that he is paying more
for his goods than does cash custom
ers and the dealer knows that credit
purchaser will buy much more than he
would if he were buying for cash.
Herein is double evil. One wants
only $40 worth of goods and because
he hasn't the cash with which to pay
for them is called upon to pay S2I.
Then he sees so many things around
the store that he had wanted SO long,
and which. if he has them, would add
to the comfort and pleasure of his wife
and family, and he is tempted to add
another $50 worth to his store account,
and is 1.-the merchants books for a
bill of fifty. This is a large sum of
money, but he feels that after harvest.
| or after he has sold his hogs or his
cattle or his corn, OF after the arrival
OF the pay car, he can easily pay it.
But when the time comes he finds that
| he hasn't cent more than is called
| for in the purchase of things absolute
ly necessary to run the house OF farm,
| and in very many instances instead Of
paying his store account first he leaves
1t unpaid for more convenient season
and adds to 1t from time to time as the
occasion requires. BY and by he finds
himself so involved that a sacrifice of
something has to be made and is made,
and in the sacrifice he is compelled to
part with what is surely worth $3.50 for
S1OO, and here is another loss; and it
illustrates the manner in which many
are kept poor and full of trouble all
the time for want Of prudence and
self-denial. Let the motto be cash. as
far as possible, all along the lire, even
though we do not dress as fine or live
as high as some of our neighbors.-

LOCALIZED ROBBERY.

To lay with one hand the power Of the government
the property of the citizen, and with the
other to bestow It upon favored individuals to
. MD private enterprises and to build up private
fortunes, is the loss q robbery because 1t Is
. done under the forms Of law and Is called taxa
Gon.-e0 wallace. U. s. Supreme Court Reports,
Page 6o3.
Oenstitutionally tax can have other basis than
the raising Of revenues for public purposes, and
whatever governmental exaction has not this
basis Is tyrannical and unlawful. A tax on I'M
ports. therefore, the purpose Of which is not to
raise revenue. but to discourage and indirectly
prohibit some particular import for the benefit OF
some home manufacturer, may be questioned as
being merely colorado, and, therefore, not war
ranted by constitutional principles.-Judge Coo

The Word kiss" Parsed.

A young lady friend of ours in this
city handed US the following, with the
request to please publish it. THE
parsing, not the kiss.) She says she
knows all about it, (the kiss, not the
parsing,) and wants her friends to be as
wise as herself:
kiss is a conjunction, because it
connects. 1t is verb, because it Sig
nifies to act and to be acted upon. 1t
is proposition, because it shows that
the person kissed is no relation. 1t is
an interjection lat least it sounds like
one.) and is pronoun, because she
always stands for the noun. 1t is also
noun, because it is the name of the
osculatory action-both common and
proper-Second person necessary. Plu-
raj number, because there is always
more than one. In gender, it is mascu-
line and feminine mixed. Frequently
the case is governed by circumstances
and light, according to rule one. IF
he smite you on one cheek turn the 9TH
er for another smite." 1t should al
ways begin with capital letter, be Of
ten repeated, continued as long as pos
sible, and ended with a period. Kiss
might be corrugated, but ought never
to be declined"

last at one O'Clock, aged eighty one
years and eight months.
A large number of friends of Mr.. and
Mrs. Cannon gave them a surprise on
Tuesday evening last; and rendered
them their best wishes for success in
their new home.
Mr.. Gerriets, who has resided near
this city for the past tive eyears, sold out
everything here last week and left for
Clifton, Clay county, this state, where
he will again engage in farming.
The trustees OF the NJ. E. church

be completed at once and that their
next quarterly meetins will be held in
their own building.

WITH Kansas grain fields averaging
eighteen bushels per acre, and the de-
posits in the various banks of the state
increasing two million dollars in the
past three months, there need be no
fear that eastern capital will refuse to
seek legitimate Investment in the state
because the common people are striving
to overthrow republican ring rule in
the interest of monopolies and corpor-
ations, and because of it are denounced
by republicans as repudiators and
calamity hpwlers. Capital looks below
the surface for dangerous indications,
and big crops and increasing bank de-
posits do not frighten the money lender;
neither does desire for retrenchment
and economy. even il it is urged as a
political issue.-Central Kansas DEM

THE Kansas City Journal started
the libel that Jerry Simpson was to
have said, in conversation with some
travelling man, that "The Dalton boys
were no worse than the bankers they
robbed.'' Poor old Commodore Peter
Wrinkle TOwnsley takes up the base and
groundless fabrication and in the Tri-
bune asserts that it is so. Readers, do
you not remember the action of the
republican press just ON the eve of for
mer campaigns; and do you not know
that that press has been besmirched
all over with just such false, despicable
slush that had no foundation in fact?
Remembering this, we do not believe
the people of Kansas will pay any
attention to the vile rot now; but will
go right straight ahead and administer
a justly deserved rebuke to the men
and the party that will stOop to such
dirty tricks and practices.

REDEEM KANSAS.


Two years ago there were number
of republicans joined themselves with
the democrats on the issue of resub-
mission. They canvassed the state
against the republican party, and
showed up the leaders of that party IN
a way that made them cringe. In Bar
ton county there were number of
these men, among them w. w. Sow
ards, Hon. D. A. Banta, the former
having been chairman Of the ,resub-
mission republican convention and the
latter their nominee for lieutenant gov
ernor. These men told the people OF
Barton county of the perfdy, the
hypocracy, the scheming and intrigu
ing of such republicans as Humphrey,
A. w. Smith, Joe Hudson, Caraway,
and the like, and showed how, under
the leadership of such men, the fair
state of Kansas has been greatly in
jurec, emigration turned away, capital
driven out, hypocracy and falsehood
enthroned and the rights of man sup
pressed and bound down. They knew
they were speaking the truth, and that
change from that state of affairs could
never come about through the repubE
can party.
But where ere they now2 What has
become Of their consistency? Whence
has flown their desire to rid the state
of tie set Of cranks aud hypocrits who
have so long controlled it?
Here is where they are: They are
on the stump for the very same fellows
they so short time ago SO bitterly de-
nounced. They are pleading with
democrats whose friendship they
gained through their course of two
years ago, to come now and stand by
the very fellows they then denounced.
Mr.. SOWards is candidate for the
legislature, standing with the hated
Humphreys, the A. W. Smiths and
the Carawags On the platform made by
the same gang of political shysters he
so short time ago denounced; while
Mr.. Banta is stumping the state for
the same old crowd.
Democrats, beware of such turncoats.
Let not your friendship. gained through
their position of two years ago, lead
you into aiding them now. They would
turn you oyer into the hands of men
whom they themselves rebelled against.
They would urge you to assist in per-
petuating the rule of the corrupt and
bigoted gang which they so forcibly
showed up in 1890. Beware Of giving
the enemy to Kansas any support. They
are deceiying you.
We hope that every democrat in
Barton county will go to the polls on
election day and deposit straight vote
for the nominees Of the democrat con-
vention of July 9Th. By doing so you
will aid in dethroning the gang of
political papsuckers" which Messrs.
Banta and Sowards told you about,
and putting in their place new set of
men; men who are not surrounded by
coterie of Office holders and place
hunters; men whose public and private
records are SO far as we know, clean
and unassailed, and who could not pos
sibly perpetuate the order Of things
now installed in the state house, even
were they so disposed-which we know
they are not.
Redeem Kansas this year, and the
future will prove to you that she is for
ever out eff the republican column.

concerned. In fact, when one looks

The Kansas wheat crop exceeds the
value OF the output from all the gold
mines in the country. Why do not
some of the stand up for Kansas re-

are anarchists, socialists, regulators.
