Drink and Crime.

At recent funeral of man who
was killed in Kansas City, Mo-, in sa-
loon riot, Rev. DR.. Jesse Bowman
Young, pastor of the Grand Avenue
church, of that city, in his remarks de-
clared that ''by actual count, a major
ity of the murders which had been COM
mitted in that community within ten
years had been perpetrated by men
imbruted and maddened by drink. I"
The man who committed this murder
was himself drinking member of the
police force. DR.. Young took occasion
also to read the mayor and other Off
Gals a sharp lecture for the placing of
drinking men on the police force.
What is true of Kansas City is true in
other places where acts of violence are
committed. The majority, and large
majority, are perpetrated by those who
have been drinking; have all been in
cited to the evil deeds by the madden
ing influence of alcohol.

E. j. Turner, ex-congressman from
the Sixth district, who has lived in
Washington since his election four years
ago. arrived at Topeka this morning to
attend the Republican convention and
registered as from Hoxie. Washington
dispatches this morning stated that
Turner would be candidate before the
Sixth district republican convention for
denomination, and his manner of greeting
his old friends in the hotel lobby this
morning went long way toward con-
firming this report. He would grasp
their hands more tightly than is the GUS
tom of William Higgins and hug them
closer than is wont of "Farmer Smith"
When asked by the Star correspondent
whether he intended to stand for the
nomination Mr.. Turner said: Il have
stated three or four times that I was not
candidate and now do again. I have
received several letters urging me to run,
but have always replied that I was not a
candidate. 1 know all of the men who
will be candidates before the convention
They are all good fellows and whoever is
nominated propose to spend my time
until election day in the Sixth district
working to redeem it." Some of the
county delegates from Colby stated that
Turner's friends had secured head
quarters at Colby during the convention.
Turner intends to return to the Sixth
district and Notwithstanding his denial
of candidacy, the impression is general
that his name will be presented in the
event of the deadlock which every one
expects.-Star.

A Marriage Promoter.

A novel society has just been In
stituted in Brooklyn, the purpose Of
which is to foster the marrying habit
1t appears to be mainly composed OF
German citizens. but if it shall demon.
strate its practicability other nation
alities will no doubt take up the idea,
and it may possibly become universal
Any member Of the society in good
standing, having decided to enter the
matrimonial lists, will inform the sec
rotary of his purpose, whereupon an
assessment will be levied on all the
other members of the society, and the
proceeds handed to the aspiring bene-
dict. Thus armed and equipped with
filthy lucre he is expected to acquire q
peculiar value in the eyes of the fair
object OF his attentions, and presum-
ably success will crown his wooing.
Should the organization become num-
erous these assessments will of
course realize very considerable sums
and the bachelor will not only be able
to marry with eclat, but he can even in
dulge in the luxury of a European trip.
or signalize the hone ymoon by some
other recherche festivity.

have been made to show the south how
much mole forgiving We were IN this
soldier state of Kansas than they are in
the states where the rebel flag is yet often
exhibited to show loyalty to the lost
cause.
The alliance has suffered as we'll as the
peoples party by ambitious reformers
who have offered many wild and ex-
travagant schemes for paying debts with
money that was to be almost free and un-
limited. The subtreasury and many CO.
operative plans for recognizing the bust
ness of the country have brought only
disappointment to our people and ridicule
from the business world.
I believe that the intelligent, earnest,
honest members of the alliance will re-
fnse to b. longer led into political
schemes to serve the purposes of place
hunters in the democratic and peoples
party.
In closing I can only express my regret
that so useful an organization as the
alliance promised to be to the farmers of
Kansas has been destroyed by partisan
politics. Yours with respect,
FRANK MCGRATH.

Significance of a Patent,

A vast number Of people suppose a
patent to be conclusive in itself, good for
its face value. invincible and invulnera-
bic. 1t is none Of these things, and can
be none in the nature of the case. A
striking illustration of the real signifi-
canoe of a patent, and the fiery ordeal
it must undergo before it acquires the
force and virtue nominally belonging to
it. is afforded by an important electrical
patent lately issued for which the in
ventor had been fighting for twelve
years; and he got it at last only by the
decree of the supreme court of the Dis
trict of Columbia, everything the per-
sistent refusal of the patent Office.
From which example, and from thou
sands of like character, it is manifest
that whether the patent authorities
Pive or withhold, their action II in no
wise final or conclusive. It is In fact
little more than q putting ON record, .

SATURDAY, JULY 2, 1892.

SOME of the peoples party leaders pre-
tend to think that if the election OF presl-
dent is thrown into the House there Will
be chance to elect peoples party man
to that position. The idea is absurd as
all will agree who will reflect for a
moment. 1t is the present congress that
will elect the president, If elected oy con-
eress at all, and not the congress elected
this fall. The democrats in the present
congress have about 80 majority. We
have frequently remarked that the only
thing the alliance could accomplish
would be to help elect a demo-
cratic president. 1t is democratic
annex no difference what may be the in
tentions of the rank and file of the party.
Unwittingly, perhaps, but none the less
surely, will the peoples party vote the
democratic ticket SO far as results are
concerned. We believe that many OF the
leaders are working for that end. We
believe that many of the members OF the
party are honest, but good intentions
will not change the result.

THE state college of Delaware has a
curious and tragic touch in its history.
The university was established in 1884,
but during the whole decade between
1850 and 1S7Oits doors were closed. ap-
parently for good: Its coma came of
the Staying of one student by another.
A son of the chancellor of the state was
accused of the crime, but the evidence
was insufficient to hold him, and others
brought to trial for the crime were
cleared. When the next college year
following the tragedy opened SO few
students returned that the institution
was closed.

THAT antiquated old fossil, Sol. Miller,
of the Troy Chief, is still saying what he
conceives to be wise things with reference
to the Blaine family. Among his recent
differences is his belief that the sins OF
the father and mother are vested upon
their children; that the Blaines are be
ing punished for the manner in which
they treated their daughter-in-law, Marie
Blame. Sol. may be the Oldest news
