ONE OF LEWELLING's ISLANDER:

From the topeka Capital.
In the face of facts to the contrary so
patent that it is strange how a man
could have the temerity to make such a
statement, Candidate Lewelling is re-
lating to his farmer constituencies a
doleful tale of the lack of work for la
boring men in this state. A short time
ago, not fifty miles from Topeka, a large
farmer audience listened TO his pessi-
mistic harangue, while he told of the
extremities to which the laboring men
of Kansas are driven in their struggle
tor bread. Miserable pictures were
drawn of able-bodied men wandering
about hopelessiy, in search of something
to do, anything that would provide the
stories were told of men working in our
board, and being obliged to take their
pay in goods at a high premium. The
fact that third OF the farmers present
were on the lookout at that very time
for men to help them put in wheat and
cut corn and that they were offering
$1.25 day or $50 a month with board,
did not seem to the speaker ridiculous
commentary on his assertions?
Inc dOuuuaUCos even SupeIAOuuoduCc,
of work in Kansas is not a new condi-
ton or temporary one. 1t has always
existed Farmers are generally short of
hands. Work is usually at premium
in this state. The difficulty of obtain
ing hands is not due to the inadequacy
of wages but to the enormous supply OF
work to be done.
There are no men in Kansas who have
diligently sought work and failed to
find it. 1t is notorious fact that men
were brought into the state during the
late harvest from distant places by the
trainload to perform the labor Of gath
ering the prodigious crops or grain and
even then the demand was not satisfied
but farmers sought hands with offers of
high wages and board. The versatility
of Candidate LewellinS in finding causes
and occasions for Matchmaking Kansas
is surprising, but his ISLANDERS are not in
genious or plausible. They are too far
fetched, too strained and exaggerated;
there are too many evidences that he Is
a born calamity bowler from bitter
crick, whose vision is diseased and
whose eyes are jaundiced and out of
focus. Tie loyal people of the state
will take pleasure in standing up for
Kansas by retiring Leweliing to the
deep shades of obscurity from which he
SO unexpectedly and unnecessarily
emerged at the beginning Of thin cam
palgu.

The old axiom that Though figures
may not lie, liars figure, finds most apt
illustration in the present campaign.
For instance, Chairman Breidenthal
figures out a majority of 5000 for the
fusion state ticket, latter making due
allowance for the countless thousands
of negroes that the Republicans have
imported" That party claimed that it
would carry Arkansas, Alabama, Geor-
gia and Florida in the recent slate cleo
tons, hut it was double discounted in
every one of them, just as it will be in
Kansas next month.

Governor Mckinley's tour OF the west
has been one continuous ovation. The
people have fiocked by thousands to the
points at which he was announced, and
his mastery defense OF Republicanism
and arraignment OF the opposition of

been overwhelming, creating the great
est enthusiasm among the people who
heard him, and bringing scores and
hundreds of recruits TO the ranks OF tie

KANSAS ELECTION Law.
The statute to prevent frauds a,
elections provides:

The statute to prevent frauds at
elections provides:
.'When at any general or special election
oailot with designated heading con-
tains, printed or pasted thereon IN place
OF another, name not found on the regu-
lar ballot having such heading, such name
shall be regarded by the judges as having
been placed thereon for the purpose of
fraud, and the ballot shall not be counted
for the name SO found; nor shall any per-
son distribute tickets or remain standing
within nifty feet OF the polls during the
hours that the polls are open. Any per-
son printing or causing to be printed or
pasted ballots With a designated heading
containing name not found on
the regular ballot having such head
ing, or which omits any name
found on such regular ticket; or
any person knowingly peddling or dis
tr!buting, or causing to be distributed.
any such ballot. with the intent TO have
such ballot voted at any general or special
election, shall be deemed guilty of q mis-
demeanor. and shall on conviction thereof
for each offense be fned in any SUM net
less than S25 nor more than $500. or be i'm
prisoned in the county jail not exceeding
sixty days.

to one Of the judges of election single
odlioe UT piece Oh paper, Oh WHICH suali Ue
written or printed the names of the per-
sons voted for, with proper designation
of the Office which he or they may be in
tended to fill"
1t has been suggested that those who
desire to vote portion only of any party
ticket can be provided with tickets
printed to suit them with proper head
ings. This would save vast amount of
scratching, and probably many votes
that would be lost by misunderstaAd-
ing of the intent of the voter.
The following printed form might be
used by the Peoples party men who de-
sire to vote against Cleveland but still
vote for their party ticket for other
officers:

THE YOUNG VOTERS OPPORTUNITY

To the Editor Of the Eagle.
The number of votes that will be cast
at the November elections by young men
balloting for the first time for national
officers is so large that's decided MAORI
~ of them thrown to either of the two
great parties before the country would
result in the success of that party.
This condition gives the young voters
an opportunity. not only to select the
men who shall fill the offices, but also 20
secure an influence that will be of great
power in shaping our destiny as people.
Youth is hopeful, energetic and progress
sive, and its influence In national affairs
is therefore always salutary;
vet much of the influence we may
gain will lie missed by neglecting to i'm
prove the opportunities now offered and
scattering our votes among different
parties.
How shall we take advantage of the
conditions now obtaining? Plainly, by
giving our support to the party that is
nearest our standard of requirements,
and acquiring an influence In its con-
troll.
There is only one path from this point
on. There is but one party OF hope, of
energy, OF achievement and adyanc-
ment, but one that is prominently the
young mans party; and that one is the
Republican party. No other

liberty, liberalism and progress It's

tive but resistless advance. and is ami

A noticeable feature Of the Long meet

number of good, common-sensed, steady
citizens who were present, and who had

to the Populist party, but who gave in
disputable evidence TO the fact that
they were returning 10 their first love.

One Of the very best tributes Of all
that has been said of the universally es-

thoroughly domestic woman who
loved her husband and children better
than show or display before the world.
There are so many women who think it
their mission to reform the world that
the people specially honor Mrs. Harrison.
