Notes and Comment.

Secretary Gresham has taken the cue
and is trying to be as much Of an anti
silver man as anybody.
Not only the mine owners but the
railroad companies Of the silver states
are psralyzed by the Ianti-silver commo-
tion. They are just beginning to learn
what hard times mean.
The state dispensary liquor law in
South Carolina went into effect July l.
AS many Of the opponents Of the law
had laid in a stock Of liquors so as to
boycott the state it is impossible to tell
how the law will operate until the old
supply is exhausted.
Senator PETER was in Indianapolis
last week and on being interviewed on
the silver question said: '"The Sherman
law will be repealed the first thing. The
effect Of this will be to destroy both Of
the old parties and build up the new
one. That will be followed by q new
alignment Of parties"
It was all right for Governor Stone, Of
Missouri, TO engage in fisticuff at
Nevada the other day, but if the COVER
nor Of Kansas should do such q dis
reputable thing the Missouri papers
would want to have him impeachsd and
the republican papers Of Kansas would
say amen.

sary for Weaver to call him down and
show how he was making an ass OF
himself and his republican friends. The
general had immense audiences wherever
he spoke in the state.
Railroad employees are beginning to
feel the effects Of the present wave of
prosperity. The Santa Fe company has
decided to reduce its force Of shop en-
ployes 20 per cent. on some divisions,
and as high as so per cent on others, ell
on account Of the hard times. This will
lay of over 300 men in Topeka.
The Edwards county Populist cOnven-
tion did the right thing when it gave
strong Endorsement to w. H. French, Of
Kinsley, for Judge Of the sixteenth dis
trict. II the other counties Of the dis
trict will get IN line with Edwards they
will have candidate who will not only
win but who will be q credit to the
bench and the Peoples party after he is
elected.
Oregon is not going TO the bad right
away. She sent down requisition and
secured our s. s. King, Of Kansas City,
KSs., to deliver a Fourth Of July Oration
at Weston. And Mr.. King, with true
Kansas patriotism, of course loaded him
self with the best ammunition he had in
his stock Of eloquenCe, and started on
his pilgrimage. The people Of Oregon
could not have made better selection,
and Mr.. King could not have been called
to locality where he would have met
more intelligent people.
Speaking Of the makeup Of the Lin
coin railroad meeting, the Nebraska
State Journal said: '"The officers of the
convention who preside over the destines
of the big railroad proposition are pre-
possessing in appearance. Chairman
Close is private secretary Of Gov. LEVEL
ling, Of Kansas, and as an evidence of his
loyalty to his country wears grand
army button and bangles an empty coat
sleeve at his side. His voice 10 strong,
his delivery plain and commanding, as
was evidenced by his speeoh yesterday
when escorted to the chair as permanent
chairman. His language and lime Of
thought indicate, however, that he was q
son Of bleeding Kansas, and not antag-
onistic TO the party in power"

ave are moved so to do by consider
ations Of the following character: The
territory through which said road is pro
posed is an agricultural and stock rails

the largest in extent on the globe, the
development Of the resources OF which
has largely begun.
"Hitherto and at this time the sea.
board market for the products of this
vast empire are the distant ports Of the
Atlantic ocean, to reach which requires
1,5O0 miles of transportation by rail, the
charges for which so nearly consume the
entire value OF the product as to leave nc
adequate reward either TO the lsboreI
who has produced it or the buyer who
has shipped it.
$50 far as these charges are legitimate
and fair to be made, their burden can be
materially lessened by shortening the
distance to ocean market. This shorter
distance is gained by reaching the ports
Of the Mexico gulf, and once there the
lessensd distance by ocean route to the
growing markets of the South American
states and to others through the soon Il
be completed Nicaragua canal and Pan,
anna ship railway, as we'll as to those ol
Europe, place this favored region almost
in command of the worlds markets sc
far as North American products are con
cerned.
"But Independently of consideration
like them, q railway route to be owned
by the people and operated for the peo
pie is an industrial necessity, and is de-
msnded not only by the logic of current
events, but by the intelligent sentiment
Of the country.
