A Magnificent Victory.

The magnificent vico DRY which was
achieved on Tuesday by the Republic
cans throughout the State Of Kansas
was grand triumph for honesty in
public life. 1t was not the result Of
the hard times, nor Of silver legislation,
nor Of any dread Of tariff changes, that
induced the voters of this State to
hurl from power in three fourths Of the
counties Of Kansas the Populist or
ganization. II was because In the ten
short months in which that orginiza-
ton has been in power In Kansas, ii
has brought ruin, disgrace and dis
credit to all the people. II has changed
our prosperity and contentment to
sthgDatiOn and discomfort. From the
MONDAY Of prosperity to the gloomy
night Of dispair, from a name that WAS
honored Al d respected everywhere to
one of dishOnor. II was because ppO.
pie Of this State are beginning to reap
the terrible results Of the infamy
which our State administration has
heaped upon us. The victory means
that the people will have no more Of
anarchistic doctrines in Kansas. It
means that the Infamous doctrines Of
paternalism and rotten money, and
anarchy and socialism are to be wiped
of Of our fair State, and the state
again restored to the highway Of
prosperity and political integrity.
1t means that the people Of this
State do not sanction the attempted
theft of the house Of representatives by
the Lewelling gang.
1t means that they do not approve Of
an administration which will use its
Influence to encourage and reward
criminals aud crime.
1t means that they do not propose to
sac the will Of the people thwarted by
a governor usurping the powers of the
Legislature
II means that the people Kansas
have again decided that the govern
ment Of this State shall become a
government Of the people, for the ppo-
pie and by the people, government in
which there shall exist in reality (and
not alone on pompous bannCr,) equal
rights for nlI and special privileges for
none.
II Ia not alone among the Republic
cana that there IL rejoicing at the over
throw Of Populsm in Kansas. There
Is joy among the rank aud file Of those
who have heretofore been misled by
the false and vicious teachings Of
DOster, Clemens, L"Welling, DAVIS

tired of tho incessant calamity ho, |
that these political shys era lave been
dlshng ont to them, aud thousands at
thsm have thrown of the yoke, and
declared once more that they prefer
Sunlight To darkness, joy to solrow,
hope to despair, honesty to rcpudia,ior.

Words are sounds, votes are blows.
The people of Kansas have given ,hr

The Christmas entertainment st

everybody. A packed house, repre-

many sections of Acoomac. Miss
Pat;ie Elder, our worthy teacher
from Lunenburg. was very useful in
training the Children, aaA deserves
hearty thanks. Mr.. 0. ]. and Miss
Maggie Lucas led the music. "Ring
the Joy Bells, nand christmas Time"
were timely and beautiful. The
Young people, appropriately cos
TUNED, showed fine memory, s,if
command, and talents for declama-
tidn, which should be cultivated.
"B ad Habits,'' and Tho Young
Hfnsekeeper," gave loud hints to
some folks. The little ones had their
say, and Matrimonial Sweets" cap
tuted the crowd. What strange fan
q; Is must there have f1oated through
the brains of certain victims Of CIT
pit But, Old Kris Kringle, in a
i-slegh drawn by six boys, with bells,
seeming to have emerged from snow
drift, or dropped from the North
Pee, suddenly startled all, looking
ab,ut as though he wers monarch
