Halloween Eve.

Halloween night much damage
was done by men and boys and
the thing was needless. No one
wishes to deprive these persons of
any fun; but to do actual damage
is all wrong. In front of the door
of the Christian church was plac-
ed millinery sign, in the Normal
pond was placed carriage with
the top down in the water, several
side walks in different pats of
town were torn up and moved into
the street. This was only a part
of their doings. 1t is high time
a stop WAS put to these things. On

Oct. l, 1909, in New York, married

sharing his joys and SORROWS until
June II, 1888, when she passed on
to the spirit land. He was con-
verted IN 1857 and united with the
M. E. church and as long as health
permitted it was his delight to
meet and worship with the people
of God. He was the father of five
children the eldest of whom died
in 1862. One son is living in
Texas and the two daughters In

the son and his wife and the two
grand children who mlnistered to

DO you Wear a. Kelley Button.
(KANsAs CITY JOURNAL.

The Keeley League button is
getting to be almost as common as
the G. A. Il. button and the wear
ers of the former seem to take
just as much delight in explain
ing when and where they won it,
All classes, and some of the best
and brightest men in the land,
wear the Kelley league badge.
We have met and talked with sew
eral graduates Of the Kelley In
stitute at Excelsior Springs, and
it is surprising the interest they
take In the cure.
One of them said. "Why
shouldn' | be enthusiastic regard
ing the Kelley treatment and
Excelsior Springs? Everything [
am and hope to be is the result of
being sober, of being cured Of the
disease that was fast killing me,
running my life and wrecklng the
happiness Of my family. My
friends took me to Excelsior
Springsa drunksrd without self re-
spect or the respect of others;
they welcomed me back from Ex-
celsior Springs a mani will say
a gentlcman-with health in the
present and hope for the future.
Is it any wonder | am enthusias-
tic on the subject? ! tell you
there is not hight that we do not
thank God for directing me to the
Kelley Institute at Excelsior
Springs, and if my old associates
knew the happiness 1 feel, knew
what it is to be rid of all desire
for drink, to feel toward brackish
water or a dose of salt, they
would DO as [ have done; they
would live sgain--why. l feel ten
years younger-they would go to
The Kelley Institute at Excelsior
Springs and be made over through
the wonderful power of double
ch oride Of gold"

From Glenwood.

Mr. EDIToR:-The faithful had
a rally at Glenwood, Saturday. 1t
is to be presummed of course that
the Excelsior, of Lancaster, will
come out this week with supple
ment description of the grandest
demonstration seen in the state
since the days of Price raids, elo-
quently setting forth the astonish-
ing influx fiom adjoining counties
and congressional districts, all
due to Stone and .Fogle conver-
sions, ETC., etc. About election
times, the Excelsior magnihes q
very small bumble-bee into very
heavy thunder storm. There were
not hundred mossbacks and
never-scratches in town Saturday,
and those who were there were
not enthusiastic enough to get
drunk. The Lancaster band dis
coursed some of the dreariest
repertoire, without bringing in
many farmers from adjacent fields.
The feminine mossbsck glee club
of Lancaster sang "Grover isn't
built that way" but it was rather
failure without the contralto of
Maria Halpin to swell the chorus.
Judge Ellison was in town, shak-
ing hands, asking proud fathers
how many babies they had, and
making himself solid with the
whiskev element. He was pre-
vailed upon to address the faith
fu!, talking several minutes. He
started out on Greek mythology,
lodged around the gerrymander,
and fshed for tears of pious sym
pathy when he referred to the
charges of Hess, to the effect that
more than half his decisions have
been reversed when appealed.
The judge declared that he was
born Democrat-but didn't fur
nish tn. doctors certificate to
that fact. He never said word
about j. M. DeFrance's attitude.
The way he felt for the anti-Hess
pulse proved that he was not sin
cele when he declared that 1is
opponent only imagined he was
running against him. He boast
fully stated that he told the legis-
lators at Jefferson CITY that he
"could carry his district, with
Shelby or without it, Though
he was bidding for votes which he
felt that he needs, the arrogance
Of the man would assert itself. He
was looking for the same fools
who scratched Higbee and voted
for bloated pomposity six wears
ago. He found none of them at
Glenwood. Fosle followed thu
demagogre-judge in short talk
under difficulties. He discovered
the Mckinley bill again, as usual,
and proceeded to cudgel the mig
ger IN the wood pile" while the
automatic Ethiopian, seconded by
Capt. Tisdale and Squire Evans,
returned kicks below the belt in a
manner that made the Bourbon
champion groggy very soon. The
Democratic rally at Glenwood was
Republican entertainment. X.

TOO S777 los:

The total vote cast in 1884 was
67S7, with a democratic majority of
1917. The total vote in 1888 was
100, and a democratic majority of
sI9a. The present year we find a
registration Of S777-an increase OF
I65a over four years ago. If the DEM
ocratic Committeeman, together with
the members Of the vigilance Commit
tee, will make special efforts to get
out the vote our democratic majority
will be over a7oo. In addition to the
registered voters there ar. always a
large number of 60 day voters, which
will probably swell the number to over
1000, in that event we can look for
5000 majority. We must remember
that under the new ballot law there
will be an extra amount of labor re-
qulred in getting the vote. We have
few townships that poll nearly 500
votes; here there must be an average
Of As votes polled every hour. Each
voter may be allowed three minutes In
the preparation of his ballot, but since
the provisions for polling the vote al
low 10 to IL voting booths for the
large townships, all the votes can be
polled if little educational work is
commenced at once. 1t is not expect
ed that all will be made familiar with
the voting before election day, but an
effort ought to be made to famillarize
at least one-half. Mock elections
should be held in as many townships
as possible, and the democratic cleo
lion officers should act as the officers
In the mock elections, in order to get
thorough knowledge Of all the knot
ty points in the law. 1t is eight weeks
until election day, but the time will
pass rapidly. Systematic work should
be commenced at once to get out The

non of Cleveland and Stevenson will

follow. Get out the vote and you

WARRINGTON LETTER

WASHINGTON, Sept. S, 1902.
Using the Executive Departments
Of the government to obtain re-
publican campaign material has been
one Of the speciaIties Of the G. o. P.
ever since it controlled national
administration. Whenever it has
been possible to do so this sort OF
work has been done under authority
of Senate or House resolution, but
the absence of any such authority
has not prevented its being done dur
ing every national campaign. There
is scarcely single department of the
government in which lager number
Of employees of the highest are not
engaged upon work which would
never have been considered necessary
if the managers of the republican
campaign had not ordered that it be
done.
Senator Sherman is an adept in
this sort OF thing, and his resolution,
which was adopted during the closing
hours Of the last session of Congress,
calling upon the Secretary of the
Treasury for certain information con-
cernlng banks, State and National,
since 1890, was for the two fold pur-
pose Of getting the republican party
the strong support of the National
banks and for obtaining statistics
which might be used as an argument
against the plank in the democratic
national platform favoring the repeal
of the prohibitory tax on the circulat-
ing notes of State banks. Under
this resolution all of the official
machinery of the United States Trea-
sury las been put to work for the re-
publican paty. In sending circulars
to the National banks requesting
demanding would be nearer the
truth-thom to assist in gathering
these statistics comptroller Hepburn
felt that some reason ought to be
given for such an unusual proceeding,
so the following note was inclosed
with each circular: "Nhile it is adj
mitted that calls of this character
create unusual dem ands upon bankers
and their clerical force, still the
oalue of the results secured will,
mnquestiOnadiY be recoynizsd and,
therefore, the willing cooperation of
all national bank officers is confident
ly anticipated" Uhe underscoring is
mine.)
In addition to the circular to
National banks several thoroughly
posted officials including Henry H.
Smith, assistant Register of the Trea-
sury, have been ordered to personally
visit the National banks in the East
ern States where the information is
mostly to be used, in order that
there shall be no mistake concerning

According to the latest edct OF
fashion from Paris and London the

English name, the nightgown, has got

lshing the attractiveness of a pretty

dowing her with an air of gaminerie
which is exceedingly fetching. Pyia-
mas should be made of the thinnest
finest wool. Here in the United
States, especially where tropical heat
Is generally followed by sudden cold

they possess the inestimable advantage
of being not only warm in cold wes-
ther, but Of keeping the body cool
