AT CHICAGO last week We talked
with newspaper editor from North
field, Minnesota, who said that the
new, religious secret society know as
the A. 2. a. is aided and supported
by the republican organization of that
state. and that it is becoming terri
BILE menace to American liberty and
freedom of thought.

WHAT'S the matter with the republi-
can war-cry of last year: ''Stand up for
Kansas?" Is it really and truly so,
that the G. o. p. has wearied of stand
ing up for Kansas during one short
campaign? 1t seems that way; and it
seems that some of the candidates in
this county are lying down for Kansas
or for otfice-and not only lying down,
but wallowing in the mud of politics
hog in a stagnant pool. Shame upon
such campaigning.

LET every democrat in the county
be UP and doing next Tuesday. By
electing the democratic ticket we can
put in Office four good, solid democrats,
Fred Miller, Henry Klein, DR.. Koch
and Nick Klepper. Commence at the
top of the democratic ticket and mark
in the square in front of every name
all the way down. That will be
democratic, and will win.

A GENTLEMAN who is now, and has
been for many years. quite prominent
in republican politics in this county
and district said, at a republican meet
ing the other evening, that if the re-
publicans ''wOn in a majority Of the
counties in Kansas this year 1t meant
republican success On the state ticket
next year." and if ''they lost "a majority
of the counties it meant the final over
throw of the republican party" That
gentleman has seen the handwriting on
the wall. He may have some faint
hope of success both this year and next,
but we doubt it very much. lie is
gentleman who is sick aud tired OF
the foolish course the republican party
has pursued in championiDg every new
crankism that hobs up, and he has been
known to confess that it looks very
much like that party would continue
along that line next year OF the female
suffrage question. With these facts in
view, it should be considered the duty
of every DEMOCRAT in the county to do
his share in completely showing under
the time enemy, at the polls next

DEMOCRATS are this year joining
forces with the populist party to defeat
a common enemy. They are dong it as
democrats, and are none the less demo-
Gratis by reason of such joining of forces.
1t does not mean that we give up one
toto of our democratic faith; that we in
any manner desert OF weaken our Or
ganization. We are acting as demo
Gratis, not populists. It does not mean
that we will not next year have a full
and complete democratic ticket from
governor down to road overseer; we are
joining forces today for the purpose
now before us, and the future will take
care of itself. There is nothing incon-
sistent in our course; it is purely polit-
ical, political measure that promises
success, and one success means other
successes. By voting ticket regularly
nominated by the regular democratic
convention, and legally printed on tie
ballot though the republicans prom
ised it should not be we vote for dem
ocracy and democratic principles, no
matter what the individual belief or
faith of any Of the candidates may be.

NavOr Cart r Harrison, of Chicago The state
ments attributed t. him may not have been
correctly reported But THE TRIBUNE feels
sure that he does not wish to be considered
false to his oath as citizen, and therefore asks
whether his reported ut,eranccs are not open to
a reasonable interpretation.
If he has not been grossly msinterpretcd.
Mr.. Harrison stated in an official speech TO a
delegation at Chicago that great riots would
occur in American cities. unless the Govern
ment did that which seemed right in his eyes
Mr.. Harrison is well aware that the lawmaking
power rests. not with the Mayor Of Chicago.
but with the Congress Of the United States.
Assuming that he is sane man. he would
hardly have used such language if he had not
anticipated that the action OF a Congress of
his own political faith would be adverse t. his
wishes His assertion was meaningless or else
il was a threat IT it was threat il was
singulary calculated t. incitc TO wrong doing

State Treasurer Danforth's explanations do

dental discovery opened his eyes. But the
main question concerns Danforhs loan OF
$4,000. without security, from a bank which
he had favored with large deposit of State
money. That is what interests the public. 1t
ought TO interest Governor Flower profoundly.
Does he think that such conduct by high
public official is worthy of praise? Or does
the official guilty of it deserve to forfeit his
Office?
