A SAD DROWNING ACCIDENT.-Wi Willie
Heavey, IL year old son of Will
liam Heavey, while at play about
the bulk-head above the pulp mill,
on Thursday morning, fell into the
open sluce-way which carries off sur
plus water, ice and rubbish from the
mouth of the big fume. The spout
was running nearly full at the time,
and the boy was out of sight of his
companions in an instant, being
shot out with terrible force onto the
rocks and into the high water of the
river below. Search has been kept
up most of the time since, but as yet
no trace of the body is found. The
boys cap was found in one of the
eddies down the river, on Friday.
This sudden taking out of existence
of such a bright little fellow is very
sad indeed, and Mr. and Mrs. Hea-
vey have the sympathy of this com
munity in their deep affection. The
search is still kept up, and on Satur-
day everybody is requested to par
ticipate in further work.

Sheriff Burnell came to town last
week to draw the jury for the coming
term of court. Being in a hurry to
return, he did his business up
promptly and went to the depot for
the purpose of taking the freight
train home When he reached there
the train was gone; but not to be
baffled by a trifing hindrance of
that kind he started along on foot.
At first the walking was fine, and
having q. j. Mudgett and his broth
er-in-law, VIII Parker, along, a
pleasant conversation was kept up
and about half the distance to Nor
risville soon got over. But the near
approach of noon and an aching
void within, soon began to tell upon
the Sheriff and he Jagged behind his
company. Great beads of perspira-
ton stood out on his brow, and with
hat in one band and aaE1anna in
infoqfn3Ts6 that a 1tf --e0ul6o b.
had at Morrisville before the Journey
to Wolcott WAS resumed, he man
aged to keep up a movement until
that place was reached. He at once
repaired to the restaurant and filled
up with a general assortment of
Mrs. Dykes best provender. Fortu-
nately the freight train which had
left him at the Park was still in Nor
risville and further pedal navigation
was unnecessary-much to Milo's de-
light. "By COLL" he remarked as he

KANSAS JIAITITS.

A limit is an Office holder or office
seeker who in point Of intellect is not
even ace high. Kansas has more than
her share OF jimtits. They have even
gained the ascendency in the legisla-
tive halls of the state and in many
counties have complete control of all
the offices. In politics they are mighty,
coming as the Kansas zephyr comes,
with much sound and tribulation,
blowing sand in the eyes of the multi
tude and causing sore destruction to
the poor man who hath not builded
his shanty on a firm foundation.
Their religion is ironoclastic in the.
Org and Of the vapnr vapory i'll real
iza,ion. They advocate the destruction
of the strongholds and the pulling
down of the powerful, but they only
succeed in making the rich richer and
the poor poorer. Their ideas Of finance
are of the Hoitentot order with TAT of
fees for every devout member. Their
tongues are hung in the middle and
they know less about more things
than a seven day Baptist.
limits are indigenous TO the river
bottoms in the rural districts, hut are
not infrequently found in the cities
and towns. They can generally be
recognized by their argumentative
style of conversation, being always
found on the opposite side Of every
uuestion-even the multiplication la
table. A city or town Jimtit has 10
standing anywhere. His rural broth
ers are willing to Use him as a tool,
but grant him mono of the emolu-
ments, while his old friends in the city
look on him with sorrow and pity.
We are 10th to believe there are
jimtits in Baxter Springs, but Column
bus has them and Galena has them
and along the creek bottoms Of CherO-
kee county many of them can be
found-not ia an ossifed form, but
real, live, thoroughbred, forked leg
ged jimtits, whose only object in life
is to tear down and destroy all exist
ing forms of government and build up
monopoly in reform and public
warehouses and fat Offices, where q
simple minded clerk can charge $3.50
for 70 cents worth of work on a fee
bill.

he is one of the kind who carried the

the kind who will never falter until
the integrity of Kansas is securely es'

lamity are drowned amid the cheers
and rejoicings of people redeemed

KANSAS TO THE FRONT,


We ask the, candid and careful perus-
al of all our readers to the following
remarks by Judge Isaac L. Hunt OF
New York, and after you have read
and pondered on what he says, we
ask you who is responsible for high
rates of interest, for the general dis
trust of Kansas in financial cercles,
for the scarcity of outside capital in
Kansas and for the foreclosure Of
mortgagesP We would also ask If
Kansas lie still TO be the laughing stock
of the world? Are sockless idiots and
sleepy fools to still represent our no
BILE state In the national halls Of this
country? Have pride and honor both
forsaken us, and must we still suffer
ourselves to be called repudiators?
These questions are 10 be decided this
fall, and the defaners of our state
must be put down by the united eff
forts of all who love Kansas, ire
spective of politics or party:
"The indications point to another
enormous crop this year and there APP
pears 10 be nothing 10 prevent the IN
dications from being realized. Sim
ultaneously with the return of good
times the prospects Of the Alli-
ance winning are lessened. 1t is my
business to keep in touch with the
money centers of our country, and 1t
is from personal knowledge that say
Kansas has been set back ten years by
the landslide of 1890. The threatened
wildcat legislation has not been ell
acted, but widespread disquiet has
been created in the east. This alarm
ia only now beginning TO subside.
The state was for u time looked upon
as u lot of regulators, and 1t took the
money centers some time 10 learn the
truth, that the threats came from those
who fortunately had not the power to
carry them out.
"TwO years ago Kansas was the best
represented state in the Union in the
congress of the United States. Today
she Is the laughing stock of the coun-
try. She has only one senator and
two congressman to reflect any credit
upon her whatever. The people of the
east look with incredulous amazement
mixed with derision upon the people
who send a man to congress because
he doesn't wear socks. In the senate
Kansas was the first state in the
Union. Ingalls, and Plumb were the
peers of any two members of that
body, and no man in the country
could draw larger and more rep
audience than ingalls,.
Plumb was famous for his business
sense and hard work.. The two men
were perfect compliments. What one
lacked the other had, and that quality
in which one was deficient the other
possessed in a superlative degree.
Their like will never again be stimuli
taneously in public life, representing
the same state. Senator Perkins pos
scsses in a marked degree the quail
ties of Plumb, but there is no Ingalls,
In the senate from any state.
"But those days are over now, and
all that Kansas can do is to replace
the giants by means Of as large stature
as possible"
