The returns for 1890 show that had
the Alliance party and Democrats
united on a common ticket, they
would have had plurality over the
Republicans of 5000. and would
have polled 60.73 per cent of the total
vote.
The lost opportunity of 1890 very
logically suggests to the opposition
to the Republican party in Kansas
the possibilities of 1892, and it is not
quite apparent upon what ground the
g. o. P. bases the alleged belief that
its enemies, who are allies, at least to
the extent of desiring the defeat of an
organization which has become cor
rupt through long lease of power.
will not improve the chance which is
now within their reach of vanquish-
ing this powerful foe.-Konsos City

THOSE who are trying to keep up
with the political procession, have
placed Tennessee in the doubtful col
umn, which appears to be unusually
large and continually growing, since
the announcement of the independent
candidacy of Governor Buchanan
was received. The claims of the
Peoples party men are on the in
crease; they now say that they ex-
pect to carry at least ten states and to
elect not less than 100 members of
the next house.

The Mcpherson Democrat well says
'sno Democrat for a moment can think
of voting for George T. Anthony for
congressman-at-large. He is the most
corrupt, cold, selfish, disreputable
politician in the state. He ID a
chronic Office holder and uses his en-
ergies for the advance ment of George
rs interests alone. He is the willing
tool of corporate MS and is unfit to
represent this state in the national
councils"

"Under the benign influences of
this law Tor this administration as the
case may be)," asserts the orator,
''the cost of living has gone down in
this fair land of ours 1910 per cent"
And the CONSCIENTIOUS American
citizen, listening to the delusive song
of averages, wonders why it is that
the truthful figures of the oratorical
economist tell him one thing, while
his butchers and bakers bills tell
him quite another. If he could see
the method by which the average is
obtained he would realize how figures
may be made to lie.
This illustration is doubtless sufi-
cient. It is unnecessary to show how
the average cost of living is some
times determined by including ham
mers and tongs and patent medicines
IN the table as if they were of the
same value as food and clothes.
If the American citizen wants to
vote intelligently on the tariff ques-
ton he must not permit himself to be
deceived by averages.--Harper's
Weekly.

They are Coming to 1t.

The Republican club of Woodston,
Kan, passed the following resolu-
tons last week, and as they are so
much in line with the Peoples party
that the HERALD publishes them as
an indication that the present polit1-
cal agitation is bearing fruit. All of
the laws referred to were passed by
Republican legislatures, and are now
found to be wrong, Notwithstanding
the fact that some Republicans think
their party never made a Legislative
mistake:
For more than a quarter of CEN
fury the Republican party alone of
all political organizations has cham
pioned and fought to a successful is
sue the cause of the poor. Knowing
it's principles to still be prompted by
the same philanthropic spirit we call
attention to what in our opinion are
evils, and ask that they may be cor
rected. AS follows:
''The dealings in futures on farm
products robs the producer to a great
extent of the legitimate fruits of his
labor. This should be righted.
1.-The laws enabling trusts and com
bines to monopolIze trade in nearly
all products of field, NINE and fac
tory. both foreign and domestic, are
wrong and should be corrected
'When property representing Sc
curity for debt is sold at sherlff's sale
under foreclosure of mortgage the
sale of said property should cancel
the debt.
''There should be a wise redemp-
ton law from mortgage sales.
''When property is sold for taxes il
is wrong to compel the unfortunate
owner to pay two per cent interest
per month on the amount in order to
redeem. The state laws in reference
to usury should apply to these cases.
''The law making a man an limo
nocent purchaser of a fraudulent note
is against the public good for the
reason that it gives encouragement to
/ crime. No one should suffer under
law for the wrong doings of others.
There are many state and national
boards of which the duties of the
members consist principally in draw
ing their salary. These boards should
in our opinion be abolished.
There should be revision of rail
road laws in the direction of cheaper
and more uniform rates for transpor-
tation.
''There should be an overhauling
of the state printing houses.
Judgments against the endorsers
of notes, wherein the note has no
been protested and consequently tbs
law not complied with, should be can
celled by order of the court.
"The state in our opinion, should
publish all school books and furnish
them at cost.
'All public highways should be i'm
proved under the supervision and a
the cost of the state; enabling local.
ties at the same time TO make dams o.
reservoirs for water storage.
''In our opinion the surest and bes
way to increase the currency in cir
culation, is for the people not to Dor
row it. This would abolish the cred
ltor and debtor classes. The none,
would then seek legitimate channel
of trade, no reserve would be held.

The Trick of Averages.

The quadrennial season of tariff
discussion has begun, and from now
until the early days of November the
newspapers and the hustings will be
embellished and resonant with per-
centages, numerals, decimal points
and averages.
The conscientious American will
diligently try to comprehend the Ia
bles and arguments that are addressed
to his eye and ear, and perhaps he
may succeed in this better than some
of those who appeal to him. Against
one thing, however, he should be pre-
pared to defend himself. If there is
anything in statistics more blighting,
more delusIve, more inimical to
clear understanding. and more pre-
ventive of honest conclusions than
another, 1t is that tricksy sprite, av-
erage
When an orator begins to discourse
upon averages, honest men should
shun him. He is simply attempting
deception, Willingly or unwittingly.
For example. he tells his audience of
a mill in which there are employed
$500 persons, the average yearly
earnings being 5000 each. In that
mill there will be one man earning
$4,000, i've earning $4,000 each, 100
earning $3.50 each, 1000 earning 5000
and $4,000 earning $500 each.
There is not much truth told by
that kind of average, but the subtlety
of the averagemonger is still better
illustrated in tables of domestic econ
omy. The orator desires to show
that the cost of food is less than it
was, so he works out an average for
the last twelve months. He makes a
table for himself, which we will illus
trate. He represents the prices at
the beginning of the period by 100.
The additions show the percentage of
rise in price; the subtractions, the de-
crease. He is cunning in composing
his table, but its details are not for
the public. The people who listen to
him must be contented with his re-
suit. Here is his method:

The Republican league one week
ago this night had a full meeting in
the court house where hundreds gath
cred to hear our congressional nomi-
nee. We had heard him In an ex-
tempore speech before and after the
Colby convention and were strongly
impressed with his abilities as a
speaker, so we expected much of him
after a brief study in the arrange
ment and matter of his set speech.
To tell the truth we were very much
disappointed with his argument and
oratory on last Thursday night, with
ample opportunity and a gala day
audiedce; but, of course, we must
not dwell on this and for the good OF
the cause and the success of the
party, render the usual encomiums.-

The New York Times maintains tn

The New York Times maintains that
agriculture is the most profitable in.
dustry.in existence. The silver mines
that are now getting dollars worth OF
silver, as measured by common business
standard, for seventeen cents, are not
more profitable than good farm we'll
mauured. Taking the present prices of
all farm products aud the cost of them,
the profit is quite rs gooi as those of
the richest mines, but, while every dol
lar taken from these is reducing the de-
post, the farm is inexharstibe and will
continue to yield its profits as long as
the world exists in its present form, and
after that time has elapsed there will be
no farms required. Bat as the mine is
made to pay only by the most skilliul
working by scientific mining experts, so
the farm must be worked in the same
way or it cannot be made as profitable a,
i. may be-
