THE Cowley county populists nomi-
mated ticket last Saturday, putting on
two democrats-one for register of
deeds and the other for coroner. We
don't know how the democrats out
there will take this kind of a sop, or
whether they propose to put ticket of
their own in the field; but here in this
county no such jug-handle arrangement
will go. For several years we have
been allowing the populists to furnish
nearly all the candidates, and doing all
we could to elect them. Now we are
ready to furnish the candidates, and
let them repay the votes we loaned
neutrality-suspicious. Kansan.

OUR readers will bear us witness
that we are not admirers of populist
principles or practices; but when we
see it charged that the officials of that
party who haYe been administering the
affairs of the state penitentiary for only
four moRths, are responsible for de-
bauching eight or ten female convicts
who have recently become mothers in
that institution, we wonder at the
stupidity of partisan malignity.-Inde-

BACON said "a country will be rich
that has fertile soil, easy means for
the transportation of goods and busy
workshops" Kansas lacks none of
these, but only needs more peole to Gull
tivate the fertile soil. and more busy
workshops. The money of the east
will soon get out of the unremunerative
rut and certainly come to the progress
siye and productive west for invest
ment. Down east spectators may get
hard pressed occasionally, but it will
not effect Kansas.
