could get through the world with less
trouble and worry than she could. and
accordingly he fixed up his business AZ
fairs and left home. On Wednesday lie
came to Atchison and decided all Of his

that has been a continued drama for
thirty years. Among the Oldest resi-

the most prominent and popular. IS has
been evidenced by his repeated calls to

be said to his credit that his official
career has been as free from the faint of

to bury the Populist politics and leaders

WHERE w. P. H. us AT.r

There has been considerable specula-
ton in tho Kansas press of late as to
where Hon. w. p. Hackney stands,
politically, few papers going so far as
to pronounce him without the pale of
the Republican party. All this talk
comes of the fact that Mr.. Hackney has
been conspicuous in the state for his
agressiveness as an uncompromising
Republican, and has recently publicly
advocated the cause Of silver.
He has never needed champion or apol-
ogist, and dosen't now. He made a
public speech in Winfield last Friday
night, on. current political issues, the
following comment upon which from
the Courier sets at rest Mr.. Hackney's
attitude towards the party:
The speech delivered by Hon. w.
P. Hackney last night WAS one of
the strongest and most powerful
ever listened to by a Cowley county
audience. Mannipgs hall was
packed 10 suffocation, the audience be-
ing made up of people from every part
OF the county, and of all shades of polit-
ical belief. The speech was surprise
to everyone IN several respects. First,
in its literary style and diction, next
in the strength and force of its logic,
and last. but not least, in clearly defin-
ing Mir. Hackneys position of the polit-
ical questions of the day.
The speech dwelt entirely on national
issues, and was a strong, vigorous and
manly plea for silver and protection to
American industries.
Those populists who were flattering
themselves that Senator Hackney had
deserted the Republican party, were the
only disappointed ones in the audience.
That speech was good enough RepubIi-
can doctrine for anybody.

DESERTED EASTERN FARMS.
Nearly 1000 in Massachusetts Alone. Due
Chiefly to q Desire for CITY Life.


Nine hundred and seventy-eight of
these abandoned or partially aban-
dcned farms in Massachusetts, were re-
ported to the state board of agrieul-
turN in 1892, over three hundred in
New hampshire and as many more in
Vermont and in Connecticut. In COM
menting on this singular state of af-
fairs the Massachusetts, bureau of sta
tistics of labor notes an increase in
this class of property in townships
where the value Of the manufacturing
product predomirates and decrease
in those townships in which the agri-
cultural product exceeds in value that
of the factories. Touching the causes
OF this abandonment the report says:
There isa strange fascination in city
life which has always existed and
which leads many who are under its
spell to prefer poverty and privation in
the city to independence and comfort
in the country. This fascination is i'm
tensified by the undoubted benefits
which the modern city offers to those
within or near it. And yet ii must be
admitted that the promise which leads
to the abandonment of country life is
frequently unfulfilled. The movement
from the country toward the city may
affect, indeed has affected, the labor
market in two ways; ii may lead to
dearth of agricultural labor in the de-
pleted districts. thus adding to the
burdens which in too many cases the
farmer already bears, and il may in
tensify the competition to which the
city laborer is subjected. both as To
employment and as to wages. This
competition reacts upon those who
come to the city for the purpose of inn
proving their fortunes. only to find the
opportunities open to them constantly
growing less. On the other hand. the
life of the farmer, notwithstanding its
burdens, was never SO easy in many re-
spects as at present. The improve
ments due to modern invention have
lightened farm labor, while the rail.
road, the telegraph and the press have
brought the most retired farms into
communication with the activities of
the age. The farmer may not be able
to amasS wealth, nor can the ma jority
of those in cities hope to do so. He is
generally sure of comfortable living
as the reward of his toll, and the con-
tingencies that affect his employment
are usually no greater than those al
fecting employment in cities. If OPP
portunities for large profits are not
open to him ne is relieved from the
risk incidental to such opportunities.
That some of the burdens under which
he suffers might be and ought 10 be
removed is undeniablc; but there are
those in the city, working for low
wages, liable to periodical employ
ment, to whom life on the abandoned
farm would offer an agreeable change;
only they must first be convinced that
such q change is desira bic.

The Charleston News tells some mar

The Charleston News tells some mar
velous stories about the abundance of
rice birds IL the dilfes and marshes

never before have they been seen in
such swarms, darkening the air as
they fit from place TO place. They

way now, however, is to get boat
and dip net and go among the bitches
in the old rice fields and dip up the
birds. A gentleman went out a few
nights ago and returned with one
thousand. two hundred and thlrty-six
birds II required wagon and two
buekboards to carry them all home.
Quite "a considerable sum has been
