BURN II UP,

The thing to do is to put the torch to
the White City and let it go up and out
in blaze of glory. Fire has been the
inspiring genius Of Chicago. No other
city on this continent or on the face of
the globe would have been equal to the
glittering glory that has for six months
graced the lagoons and lakeside of Jack
son park. Her triumph of magical
palaces have proved the nations aureola
Of progression and the worlds admira-
ton. Pictures, paintings and engravings
Of this lambert aggregation of otherwise
indescribable beauty will be treasured
and gazed upon with astonish-
ment for generations to come. No
other vestige of it all should be left.
1t should be said, of it: land, think, they
burning it up" The buildings are so
constructed as to command no price be-
pond the cost of removal. To sell them
under such circumstances would be like
general selling the faithful old worn
out horse which had carried him through
manp battles for song. instead Of shoot
ing him with military honors. The only
value possible to be realized out of the
buildings is tho iron, not in its present
structural form but as simple material.
The fire would not injure the iron. The
sentimental, the brilliant thing to do is
to obliterate the great white creation by
fire.

FOR ODD FELLOWS, ORPHANS.

The Odd Fellows of Kansas viii be
called upon to pay this year S1.05 each
to furnish and equip the De Bouissere
home at Silkville, Franklin county.
where orphans of the Odd Fellows of the
state are to be cared for. The home
consists of a magnificent farm of over
5000 acres fully stocked with cattle.
horses and hogs, making splendid
property. De Bouissere, the donor was
an exiled French nobleman and he left
this gift 10 the order after having ex-
perimented in several phiianthropic
schemes Oh the premises. The trus-
tees report says: 1.-The house originally
contained sixty rooms. To remedy GER
tain defects we have built an addition to
the building. which improves its
appearance and adds to its conven-
fence; have also taken out partitions
in some of the rooms, thereby increasing
the size and making them more conven-
lent for the various uses necessary in
such an institutions; also we have built
stairways at each end of the building,
that are Of easy grade and thoroughly
lighted.
''The building as now arranged Will
comfortably accommodate necessary help
and probably seventy-five children.
By some members it was considered
that the farm would be an expense upon
the lodge to keep up, but after visiting
it the grand lodge voted by an over
whelming majority to accept it and fur
nish the money to run it, confident that
with propar care and arrangement 1t
would more than pay for itself. besides
giving home to the children of deceased
Odd Fellows.

THERE Is POLITICS IN 1T.

| From the Kansas Chief.
When the opposition tells you there is
no political issue at stake this year,
and that it is a good time to throw party
aside, and make a change, ask them why
they are making such desperate efforts
this year. The people are still enjoying
| the blessings of the change they made a
year ago, and still they are asked 10
make more of it.
The Peoples party is making most
determined canvass, this year, and when
it comes TO the tug. it will be found that
the Democrats are in fusion with them.
Why all this, if there is no politics at
issue?
This fall will determine whether the
Peoples party is to remain formidable
power in the state, or whether it is on a
decline that will end in speedy death.
This desperate canvass is made in the
hope of keeping up their vote to a
good bulk, in the hope of reassuring
their waverng members, for it is be-
lieved the gang is beginning to fall to
pieces. If they can slfow heavy vote.
it will warrant them in going into
another state campaign. Every Repub-
lican who permits himself to be wheel
there is no political issue at stake" will
be counted as a voter of that party In
their showing Of strength. And another
thing they are after. They are going to
try desperately to elect as many county
clerks as possible, with the deliberate de-
sign of classifying the election returns
next fall, and thereby securing legisla-
tire of their own. Knowing this, can
ally Republican be silly enough to be
caught on the no-party dodge: So
far, we have not heard of any.

Under the new election law, passed b.

Under the new election law. passed by
the last legislature, judges of elections
must be appointed from the three domi-
nant parties at the last previous election.
Acting under that specific direction the
mayor of Emporia appointed one Repub-
lican. one Populist and one Prohibition
ist to each of the election boards Of that
city. This raised the ire of the Demo-
Gratis, who threaten to mandamus the
mayor and thus compel him to place
Democrats on the boards. Mayor
Smith, when asked about the appoint
ments, stated that the law was very ex-
piicit: that at the election last fall there
were only three tickets in the field, and
that in compliance with the law he had
appointed the judges; that the ticket
last fall headed with the name of Grover
Cleveland was not Democratic ticket,
and had not the name of Democrat on
it that could be voted for: that from the
presidential electors down it was simply
the Populist ticket, nothing more, moth
ing less. The situation is a most humili-
ating one to the Democrats, but they
have no one to blame for it but them
selves.

Controller Eckels talks very learnedly
about finances. He speaks of cheap and
plentiful money as if he regarded the
people of this country set of ninnies,
which he no doubt does. He confounds
the terms ''cheap" and plentiful, with
the evident purpose of misleading and
deceiving the masses, whom he considers
dtnsely ignorant concerning the import
ant public question. But he deceives
nobody but himself, with the notion that
he is iooling the people. The average
citizen knows as we'll as Mr.. Eckels-aud
a good deal better if he speaks what he
believes-that money does not need to
be plentiful TO be cheap, nor that it is
necessarily cheap because plentiful. The

prerogative of the government. but its

commodate the commerce and industries
