Show Soma Sense.

No man is endowed with consummate
wisdom, and patience with each others
wisdom is one of the cardinal virtues.
But would it be too much to expect of
republican business men more sense
than is shown in their talk about Mrs.
Lease and other populist steam blow
ing?
Those republican business men who
were highly exercised during the cam
paign lest populist success should en-
danger the fnan cial repute of the west
are now petulently expressing hope that
Mrs. Lease will be elected senator and
that the populists may do other absurd
things so that the republican plan of
campaign mays be vindicated by the
crankism of the other side.
In the first place our populist neigh
bors in Kansas are not giving signs CT
any intention to play ducks and brakes
with legitimate interests. They are
talking and acting conservatively, and
while they do both democrats and re-
! publicans should give them credit for
| it.
Mrs. Lease is no more likely to be
elected senator than Cockrell is likely
to be defeated by republican.
In the second place, this republican
talk is doing the very thing the takers
were so alarmed about during the fall.
1t is hurting the financial standing of
the west and making men afraid to
venture into western investments. The
utterances are picked up and circulated.
They diseolor the truth by lifting i'm
possible novelties to the dignity of leg.
islative purposes
i Republicans are making so much OF
the small amount of erratic radicalism
left in Kansas that they are hurting
the whole west.
Business men and property owners
OF all parties ought to quit political
campaign when it is over. They de
mand that officials shall become
servants of the whole people when
once elected. and they might set the
example. Misrepresentation of the
intentions of populist officials and leg
islators is worse than any of the inten.
tions so far indicted.
1t is bad enough for republican poll
ticians in Kansas to excite populist
legislators to the point of extravagani
utterances as they did in 1891 and viii
try to do in 1898. How much worse i:
it for business men to descend into the
poor partisanship of exaggera.ion-
j All western men ought to be standing
up for their people. They ought to in
spire sense of justice and m ,deratlor
by displaying it frst.-Kansas City Star

FARM NOTES.

In nearly all cases the comfort of the
stock is profit TO the owner.
-.
Cows watered twice a day will give
more milk and butter than if only
watered once every day.
-
Use lime freely about the poultry
houses: it is a good disinfectant as well
as destroyer of vermin.
-
Coal ashes are a good material to az
ply around the peach trees, and as a
mulch around the currants and goose
berries.
Poor butter in neat packages will sell
better than good butter in ''mussy,
dirty looking packages, but good butter
in neat packages sells best.

An exchane tells Of a man who keeps
40 COWS and 400 hens. He says the
hens pay the most profit, as he feeds
them properly, and has a stream of
eggs going to market all the winter
when the demand is great and prices
high.

In France il Is customary to use tires

the forward axels of four wheeled
wagons are made shorter than the hind

HARRIsON's great scheme of a
monetary conference has joined the
dasies. The American delegates have
returned home, after month of labor
with cranky foreigners, and announces
that nothing could be accomplished. II
our nation will now go ahead and ar
range our own monetary system in the
interests of Americans alone justice
will be done our people, and all foreign
nations can like it or lump it, just as
they please. We are able to take care
of ourselves as Americans, and all
foreigners should be made to under
stand this.
CARAwAY got bilious last week
again, and devoted half his editorials
to the DEMOCRAT and its editor. He
shows his usual disregard for truth,
and lack of manhood and christianity
very deplorable. He doubtless thinks
his opportunity to discharge the accu-
mutation of gall and gangrene that
occupies his cracked cranium is liable
to be cut off before long, and he must
lose 70 time. He even takes the trouble
to misrepresent our motives in publish
ing an advertisement, thus showing
himself as taking of the very dregs of
political disappointment. When the
swapping, snarling outcast finally learns
that his abuse of his betters is prefer
able to his praise, in the eyes of most
people of this community, he may take
tumble TO himself and act decently.
The Kansas legislature will meet on
January 10th, and not withstanding
the great calamity howl of the republi-
can press, the financial condition of
Kansas will continue to improve right
along, after that date, as it has before.
The members of that legislature will
make record that few legislatures in
the past have made. The new element
will attempt to reform many of our
existing laws that are detriment to
the state. The republicans in both the
house and senate will be put upon their
good behavior. and will try to make a
good impression on the minds of the
people In order that they may have it
to say that NO the republican party
of Kansas is not as bad as it used to
be. There will be, however, an ele-
ment in both parties that will be urged
to go to extremes, especially on the
questions of prohibition and woman
suffrage; but it is our belief that the
more conservative element in each
party will be inclined to look to the
future good of Kansas, and not permit
any wild, visionary legislation that
would rebound to the injury of the
state. Should the mistake be made OF
working to the injury of the state in
the direction suggested both the peo-
pies party and republican party would
regret it at the next state election two
years from now.
