corn. Governor Humphrey is going
for the ''jointist'' just the same.-Hois
ington Gospel Messenger.
NAY, nay, Brother, thou hast not
placed thy ample brogans upon any
pedal projections of ours; we are
not builbed upon that plan of archi-
lecture which embelisheth the feet
with bunions. We are not hide bound
theologically nor any other way; we
are not "tight" and never have been,
and the principal cause of our criti-
cism of your misplaced prayer was
that we hated to see so good a man as
you go of after such a fellow as
Humphrey. who DOES get eight
when out Of his own state-and some
times when in it-then plays the Uriah
Heep act for political affect. Yes,
he's 'going for the jointists'' and going
with his pockets full of pardons to
help them out of their troubles-provid-
ing always that they leg for the republi-
can party. Guess again, Brother.

The time of the executive session Of
the association was taken up in dis
cussions of the present situation of
affairs political, both national and
state, and the best methods and lines
of battle were freely discussed. There
was. little or no difference in Opinions
as to what Kansas democrats should
do in 1892, and every editor present
could 90 home and to work with al,
understanding of the position of the
entire state press upon the issues OF
the day.
Resolutions were passed endorsing
Kansas city for the place of holding
the next national convention, and also
for early state conventions.
An effort which was made by two
or three to create Hill sentiment and

In THE DEMOCRAT of this week
will be found the FULL proceedings of
the January meeting of the board OF
county commissioners, this paper be
ing the only one which gives the pro-
ceedings IN FULL, although the COM
missioners-or properly speaking two
of them-saw fit to name as their cffi-
cial organ a paper which does not have
HALF the number of readers that the
DEMOCRAT has, and which so
named official paper has, in its
short life of year and half, done
nothing for this town or coun ".
Understand that there is t'no kick
coming" from the DEMOCRAT under
existing circumstances, although the
voters of the first commissioner dis
trict had a right to expect different
action from their representative OH
the board. AS Commissioner Bruce
stated. Ito the victOrs belong the spoils, .
and if the peoples party voters elect ell
the commissioner who now serves in
the first district, then he is probably
representing their interests in favor-
ing the peoples party paper. If, on the
other hand, the democrats placed him
in his present position, then his action
will hardly be endorsed by his con-
stituents. AS elsewhere stated, the
price now paid for the printing is low
enough, notwithstanding that some
Of the papers of the county are howl
ing because their bids which were
made for political capital-and not
for rbusiness-were not considered.
