ALL KANSAS SMILES.
From the Junction City Union.

From the Junction City Unioa.
From Kansas goes up the Macedonian
cry, Come and help Us. 1t Is not
demand for political speakers. or for an
extraordinary effort to save the state to
the Republican party. 1t is not de-
mand for the sinews of war TO fight the
Alliance. AS the Kansas City Journal
truthfuily says: Kansas is going TO take
care of herself in that regard. She Is
saving herself for the Republican party,
and refuting the claims OF the popuIlsts
and free trade calamityiteS. Politically
she is all right.
Tie help that is wanted in Kansas is
''heip" in good American sense-hired
men. Kansas has tremendous crop OF
wheat, and there are not men enough IN
the state to harvest and house and thresil
it. The mighty cry of "Come and help
III" which the state is sending out Is no
begging cry. Every bit of aid rendered
will be generously paid for. the far
mers of Kansas are holding money IL
their outstretched palms and offering
big wages to any one who will assist IN
the harvest.
Kansas is going to have such crop as
has not been yielded by her fertile acres
more than twice before in the history OF
the state, if ever Probably the yield
will exceed by far the best recorded
mark of prosperous agriculture III the
state. Not only is the acreage large, but
the stand is fine, and every straw bears
hanging golden head overloaded with
kernels. Coming right behind the big
crop OF wheat Is the corn, and that too
is going to be a memorable one among
the big corn crops that Kansas has had.
Mortgages? Why the Kansas farmers
will not know what mortgages are il
this thing keeps on. Free trade! The
Kansas farmer will wonder what in Gre
alton is the use of disturbing the
settled relation Of values when
the man who produces that which
the world subsists on, and the man
who labors in helping him TO get the
food-staffS to market. are getting SO
much in return for their labor and their
planning and their capital investments.
Change in the administration: What
use is a change in the administration 10
men who are perfectly satisfied, and
who see still further wealth being added
to their Golfers, and still better cultiya-
ton tickling their acres into productive
smiles?
With laborers to care for the harvest
scarce at 81. 30 and So day, and the big
systems skirmishing for them with
special trains and reduced rates, and
with such crops of wheat and corn
staring the happy farmer out of
countenance as to make him Won
der where he can accommodate them,
this is mighty poor year to fool around
the Sunfiower state with silly talk about
change of administration and the ruin
which protected industries and Repub-
lican administration bring to the laboring
classes. The man who has talk of that
sort to peddle out had better see that the
station on the margin of his ticket Is Sit
uated in some other state besides Kan
sas. The fellow who invadeS that COM
monwealth with stuff of that sort to
Eeddle may have to walk home, unless
he IS willing to bend his energies to the
nobler task of helping the farmers to get
in the crops at $2.5 per day.

1t may be little subsequent, but the
EAGLE suggests 10 the Prolib convention
in Topeka that the proper thing to have
done, or TO do if not too late. would be to
nominate Brother J. D. Botkin as the
candidate of that party for governor
The suggestion is made in the face OF
the fact that Wichita has, or bad, two
aspirants for that honor. Ii is made
from the knowledge of the fact that
Brother Botkin is entitled to the distinc-
ton, not only by reason of his self-sacri-
ficing labors and endeavors in behalf Of
the "cause" in Kansas, but from the fur

John promised Botty something good

How are you old Republicans in the
Peoples party? The Atchison Patriot,
Democratic, says: ''The first time in
the history Of Kansas, a Democrat by
his vote this fall will assist in electing a
Dempcratic president" That is true,
and the way it works is that by electing
the Weaver electors, Harrison will be de-
prived of Kansas ten votes; thus by
taking away these votes from Harrison,
Cleveland'S vote is augmented by that
number, for the reason that votes for
Weaver will be too few in number to
count for anything. All this is plain to
the Kansas Democrats, and in voting for
the Peoples party electors they do not
mean to vote against Cleveland. If they
thought there was the slightest probable
ity of Viewers election they would
never increase his chances by voting for
him.

EccENTR1cIrrEs OF THE LAW.

With all the learning and polish OF
manner that is the pride and boast of the
legal profession, it furnishes as many
eccentric characters, not 10 say cranks,
as any vocation or calling in the country.
One of the queerest of the queer Char
acters known to the profession was the
late Judge Elan of Rome, Ga.
He once boosted that he spent only 81
cents month on food, saying: 81 take
buttermilk, poura little sugar on it to
make it sweet, and eat my corn bread
with it." In attire he was equally plain,
wearing in the summer timea long linen
buster and a white canvas hat, and
carrying faded cotton umbrella and a
palm leaf fan. His law Office, bedroom.
dining-room, and all were embraced in a
little by 10 foot apartment in the Ma
sonic temple, and in the absence Of bed
he slept on the floor. Elan had been a
Confederate soldier, member OF the
Georgia legislature, and III his late years
justice of the peace. His notions OF
the law sometimes conficted with those
of superior judges, and he once came
near going to Jail for contempt for hav-
ing, IN an official paper, referred TO
Judge Underwood as ''rantankerOus.
At another time in case before the
supreme court, Judge Elan concluded
his brief with the statement: ''These
are the facts in the case, and if they
don't gain it, let her rip" He won the
case.
Another distinguished member Of the
bar, and one as noted for his waggery as
for his transcendent oratorical gifts, was
the late Tom Marshall OF Kentucky.
1t is related of Marshall that he
once got into a heated contrO-
versy with the judge of the cir
cult court of his district over some
point of law involved IN case that the
attorney was interested in, and in his
zeal in the cause Marshall forgot the pro-
prieties of the situation and use Ian
guage more emphatic than decorous and
respectful of the court, whereupon the
court directed the clerk to enter a fine
of $50 against Mr.. Marshall for contempt.
This had the intended effect of bringing
the enthusiasm of the pleader down to
moderation and a minute later to silence.
An hour later, when there was lull
in the proceedings, Marshall quietly APP
preached the judge and in semi-whsper
he requested of his honor the loan of $50
with which to pay the fine assessed
against him. Not to be outdone by the
audacious counsellor the judge turned
to the clerk with the peremptofy order:
"DIr. Clerk, cancel that fine entered
against Mr.. Marshall; the state is better
able to lose it than am"
The victor in the final passage at
diplomacy retired amid the applause Of
his brother barristers.

A Fine Old Flopper.

From the AtchtSOn OIoDe
Colonel Whoop Tomlinson. who was
originally Republican, left the Demo
cratic party because Hill was not nomi-
mated for president. He despises Cleve-
land for some ca son and has announced
that in future lac would bea Republican.
He has changed his mind again and has
started paper to support straight De-
mOcracy. He is a fine fellow to repre-
sent Democracy. First a Republican;
then a Democrat; next a Republican,
and now Democrat again. He is a
straight Democrat now because he
knows that the fusion Democrats of the
state are doing something to help Cleve-
land He is a fine fellow TO talk straight
Democracy. Not month ago he left
tAe party because the straight Democrats
nominated Cleveland for President on
the first ballot.

When Ed oKelley killed Bob Ford, the

When Ed O'Kelley killed Bob Ford, the
murderer of Jesse James, he no doubt
fancied that he committed heroic act,
and one that public sentiment would en-
dorse so strongly that he would escape
the penalty of the law. But he placed a
wrong Interpretation upon the public
condemnation Of Ford's villiany. While
he was held in execration for the
dastardly assassination of the famous
outlaw, James, Ford had received the
formal exoneration of the officer vested
with that prerogative by the law,
and unless OKeliey's life was in immi-
nent peril at the hands of Ford, he had
no more right or excuse for killing him
than any other person. But aside from
all this, it strikes the average person as
extraordinary that O'kelley should be
given life sentence upon a trial verdict
of murder in the second degree.

According to compilation lately
made there are 1853 American citizens
resident in China, of whom 500 are mis-
Sionaries. There are 3317 British, GAS
German and 5S9 French residents. There
are 327 British, 30 American, so German
and 10 French firms doing business in
China. The whole foreign resident popu-
lation, according 10 statistics prepared in
1890, was sl07. The policy of exclusion
urged in other countries against the

That Platform.

TOM tIe I.dhIH lINtA,
The Republican platform is prolific IN
thought and pregnant with numerous
isms that are calculated to bring out
much discussion. The campaign OF edu-
cation this year, is broadened and deep
ened and the voter will have an oppor-
tunity to take up the study and decide
whether he will accept the course as laid
down by his political teachers. II his
prejudices take the place of his better
judgement he will refuse to endorse all
the propositions that are placed before
him, but a calm, fair and honest consid-
Grafton of the essential things In the
platform adopted at Topeka, will no
doubt command his suffrage at the polls
in November by endorsing heartily the
entire Republican ticket.
