ADVOCATE knew all the time that it
would, and also knew that Mr.. Brsw-
ford was just the man to keep his word;
for he is the most reliable real estate
dealer In all that country.
A few days after the election Mr..
Brawford wrote that he had heard Of the
grand things the people Of Kansas had
been doing, and he would send the deer
as soon as it could be caught. Later he
wrote this:

Our national debt on September /,
1865, was about $2,75O,OOO,OOO. It could
then have been paid off with 100000
bales Of cotton, or 25,OOO,0OO tons Of bar
iron. When it had been reduced to
81, ,25OOOO,OOO, 100000 bales of cotton,
or 100000 tons OF iron would have
been required to pay it. In other words,
while a nominal shrinkage Of about 55
per cent. had taken place in the debt, it
had, as measured in either Of these two
world staples, actually been enlarged by
some so per cent. Between 1880 and
1884 the debt OF the United States de-
creased not very far from 5O,0OO,0O0. Yet
if we take beef, corn, wheat, oats, pork,
coal, cotton and bar iron together as the
standard-assuredly not bad one--the
debt not only did not decrease at all, but
actually increased by not less than so
per cent. nt.--President Z. B. Andrews, OF

New Press Association.

New Press Association.
ATLANTA, Ca, November 1.-THE
Southern Associated Press was organ
ICED in this city yesterday afternoon
after a two days meeting Of editors Of
the morning dsilies in ten southern
states. The capital stock Of the concern
is $4,000. 30 per cent. of which was sub
scribed under a charter unanimously
adopted. Evan F. Howell, OF the At
lanta Constitution, was elected president;
f. p. 0 Brien, vice president; f. Glass,
secretary; Patrick Walsh, treasurer.
The Southern Associated Press has
made important contracts for the ex-
change of news with the United Press
and Western Associated Press. This
alliance Of these three great associations
makes the most powerful news COM
bination ever formed
Yes, these combines are powerful, but
what is their objectP Is it to publish
the news as it is, or to give expression to
corporation thought Who owns the
means through which news is receivedH
Will it be reliable, or polluted by those
who grow fat in such pollution2 Polit-
ical news to suit parties, commercial
news to suit syndicates, etc. Will this
new combine follow the old ways by
which woe is brought to productive hu-
manity and happiness to those absorbing
through law methods. Few men who
have watched associated press dispatches
believe that any reports are given save
those which will suit stockholders pecu-
mary interests. Larger news means are
not the demand, but more honorable and
A news statement and
denial in the same issue, is not pleasing
The great journals which first give their
reports to the public, often know them
to be false when made, but shield them
selves behind quick denial. But ma
terial damage is done and 30 intended.
The country papers, which take their
news from the dailies, are mostly filled
with trash. The method Of searching
news has been 80 enlarged that the rirst
demand should require absolute accur-
acy, and more especially in regard to
commercial and monetary reports, when
in fact these have become as fRllaclous
as generally recognized political reports.
The legal profession pursuing such
would speedily lose cast, the
doctor dubbed a quack, the merchants
goods grow dust-covered; but the great
proclaimed bulwark of liberty lives upon
such. We hope that this new southern
combine will bring a higher tone to
journalistic purity, stamping with infamy
many Of the old methods. In the peo-
ple's fight for larger rights which are
gradually leaving them, the old party
press has persistently remained with the

"In your issue Of last evening, l find a

ing me with using incendiary language in

"Were / not accustomed to these un-
warranted fabrications of the infuriated

three Kansas campaigns, have no hesi-
tation in saying that the remnant Of the
republican party in Kansas can turn out
more falsifers to the acre than any other
state in the union. But we know they
are mad, desperate; and, while we de-
spise their lying propensities, we make
due allowance, knowing that whom the
gods would destroy they first make mad.

said: 1t is lawful to hire Hessians, pur-
chase mercenaries to mutilate, to kill

thusiasm that characterized my political

ceived 1881 votes.
Some Of the leading citizens of To-
peka propose to give Gov. Lewelling an
inaugural reception. That's right.
The strangest political event that ever
occurred in Ohio was the recent election
of one democratic and twenty-five re-
publican electors.
The fourth annual convention OF the
State Federation Of Labor is called by
President Ives to meet at Kansas City,
Kansas, on January 2, 1893. Then the
federation will discuss all the important
labor questions.
The Mcpherson county committee re-
organized and began another campaign
of education in a few days after the
election. What grand thing it would
be if every county committee should do
likewise. Nothing like keeping things
moving.
The movement to divide the state Of
Kansas, which has recently been revived
to fill a void occasioned by the close Of
the campaign, is now here for brief
stay. The divisionists held convention
at Hutchinson last Friday, and decided
to present the matter to the legislature.
just think Of the beer business being
monopolized by the Rothschilds! 1t is
reported they have fixed up deal by
which the four largest breweries of the
United States are TO be consolidated
with capital stock Of $40,000,000. II
that is true the Worlds fair people will
pay we'll for their beer.
The latest revised estimate as to the
complexion of the next lower house of
congress, which is not conclusive because
there are number of contests pending,
is as follows: Democrats, ZIG, republi-
cans 124; Populists, IA. The Populists
are from: California, 1; Colorado, 2; Kan
sas, 6; Minnesota, 1;Nebraska, 2;Nevsds,
L; Wyoming, L.
While there may be few fellows in
Kansas who are not trying very much to
hide away from the offices that are seek
ing them, Gov. Lewelling says the boys
are very modest compared with those
who are making life so miserable for
Mr.. Cleveland. The governor-elect say
that while he receives good many Wis
itors, he as yet sees no occasion for his
hiding out.
Grand Master Workman Powderly is
reported to have said i'll st. Louis last
Monday: "The labor situation never
was better. The recent election proved
that. The impression that Carnegie
and l speak of him as representing a
class-was the real opponent Of Cleve-
land, caused hundreds of thousands to
change their votes. That act demon
strated that they are thinking. They
will continue to think, and in 1896 will
have found the democratic party no bet
ter than the republican party, and will
then turn to the Peoples party, the only
friend that offers relief 1t now makes
democrat mad to call him free trader.
The party stole into power under false
pretenses, and the people will oust them
