Auntcr tho Commissioners weakened.
HUNTER. June 2O.-The proprietors OF tho
Catskill hotels In Greene county have been
having tussle with the Excise Com mission
ers OF the town Of Hunter this spring. The
township. lying in the centre OF Greene coun-
ty. includes tho Catsklll hotel and boarding
house region: among tho hotels are the Kaat
good part OF tho profit Of these houses comes
from tho bar trade: not that the drinking is
excessive. but that many people who spend
their summers there are accustomed TO take
wine with their dinner and an occasional
cocktail beforehand. The proprietors expect
ed to get their licenses as q matter Of course
this year. because at the town election. when
tho Excise Commissioners were chosen. tho
license men defeated the no-license men. and
the Excise Board as elected were in favor OF
granting licenses. But after they were elected.
and before tho applications were granted. a
llgious revival. and not only stopped drinking
themselves but declined to grant licenses to
nearest place ss where drink could be Obtained

There is h hoy. such difference n height
could not be evaded by setting up bars inside
the Catssill town line. whore snles could be
made with delivery at the hotel tables. There
seemed no way out Of tho difficulty except to
run up to the top OF tho mountain. in which
case the hotels could get LICENSES from the
favor Of this move. which would have brought
valuable property into their town without ad.
ditiona! expense. reducing their tax levy and
increasing the income, from licenses. But at
tho threat OF division the Taxpayers OF Hunter
became Alarmed and brought n pressure to
bear on the Excise Commissioners which re.
suited in arrangements satisfactory to the
hotel keepers. The matter has caused n great
deal d. OF talk among the people Of Greene and
ter next elect Board Of Excise Commission
ers the possibility Of their having a change OF
mind between the time OF election and the
time for granting licenses will be taken into
account

THE FARMER CANDIDATE.

Hutchinson News: "A. w. Smith S
interests, sympathies, experiences, OBJ
servations and life have been seen, felt
and lived on farm among farmers. He
knows the ups and downs, the cares and
trials. and the successes and failures OF
the life of Kansas farmer. He knows
the results of favorable and unfavorable
legislation. He is honest and brave
enough to defend the right. If the agri-
culturists in Kansas ever had an OPP
portunity of voting for man who is in
every respect their friend with common
interests it is this year, and the man is
plain Farmer Smith.
Not sentence or word in the forego-
ing can be gainsaid, because it is the
truth, and nothing but the truth. And
whatever may be claimed for opposition
candidates as to capabiiity and personal
worth, the fact remains that in the per-
son of the candidate of no other party is
represented the great and all important
agricultural interest Of this essentially
agricultural state. Because of this fact,
however, it is not to be inferred that
Governor Smith will conserve the farm
ing inserest of the state to the exclusion
of all others or any other. He will be
governor Of the whole state, and will
demonstrate afresh, as has been done
many times before, the capability Of the
plain, honest farmer to administer gov
ernment for the benefit of all the people.
