The Democratic Party.

The democratic party Is III power IN
the nation and in great many states.
The republican who thinks it has lost
its grip is mistaken. Considering what
the party has lived through in the past
thirty-fiye years it is remarkable that it
should have control of the government
today. Like the cactus, the more you
try to stamp it out the more it seems
to flourish. 1t possesses mo- adhesive
power to the square inch than Spald-
ing's prepared glue. 1t is as wise as
the serpent, if not as harmless as the
dove. Like the joint snake it may fly
all to pieces, but again it will gather
up the scattered fragments and appear
as the same old snake. 1t has more
vitality than a turtle and more lives
than cat. To imagine that it is fall
ing into s.inocuous desuetude" because
of the position of the president ON the
silver question, is to consider that it
can be knocked down with feather
| when it can hardly be staggered with a
cannon ball. We have about come to
the conclusion that nothing short of q
collision of the planets or the final con-
| flagration will wipe out the democratic
party.-Emporia Republican.
This is very fair admission from a
republican paper. The Republican
might have added also that the reason
democracy would live is because it is
RIGHT, and when making that admis-
sion it could reasonably become dem.
oeratic paper and be prosperous.

KANSAS Is ALL RIGHT.

The 'seagle' ey e of the Los Angeles,
California, Times, has been on Kansas
recently, and has made observations
as follows:
The Eagle has been observing
something in the papers for day
or two about irrigation, and along
with plenty of water on the side, has
observed with considerable glee that
during the sessions of the congress
Kansas has been slouching around in
the drink with breeZiness and sub
irrigation aplomb that is simply
immence. Kansas has great things,
sly as you keep it, and the big praries
over there turu out lot of people
who forge to the front in a talking
match like Viligant in a yacht race.
The Eagle is posted on Kansas
he has seen its wide sweep of rolling
plains billowing with tumble weeds
and reekipg with the succulent
grasses that make fat the kline. He
has seen the sweet williams and the
blue bells deck her slopes until they
looked as if nature had laid new
carpet to order.
He has felt the balmy breath of her
south winds that are as sweet as those
that blow across the spice islands of
the sea and has reveled beneath her
skies of blue.
Cranky old Kansas-bleeding at
every vein-LaWrence in ashes, ingalls,
making hot talks and PETER wooing
the winds with his hirsute embellish-
ments. has no equal any where on
earth.
What other county has had Col.
Charley Jennison and regiment of
120 thieves, each an artist in lifting
things that wasn't his'n?
Where has there been another Jim
Lane, a beans Pomeroy, "a Jim Legate;
also border ruffins, Quantrell raids,
the Lease woman. SockIesS Simpson
| of fragrant memory and Gov. Lew
cling? There hasn't been any any
where.
| corner on things unique-in people, in
climate, in fads, in things to howl at
| Its praries are wider and more beauti.
full than the plains of any other land
and its river bottoms where the paw
paws grow are full of fragrant things
| Fair, cranky, raided, ravaged, beau.
tiful Kansas with your Usage orange
fences; your big corn fields, your wav-
| ing fields Of wheat and your people
who are blessed with the gift of CAB
you are playing a lone band in the
constellation of States and when you
get on those arid patches along youl
westerly edge you will make the other
commonwealth of the Union humf
themselves to keep up with you, Or
miss my guess.

From the Banner
Mr.. Seeber has erected new barn
near his residence.
Frank Rooster jr. is again holding
position in the Ciaflin State Bank.
No man will ever wake up and find
himself famous unless he has worked
hard the day before.
Claflin has several expert riders,
but they came across an expert horse
Sunday that none of them could stick
to. Ben Slower says he could have
ridden him if the horse and him could
have managed to both jump at the
same time in the same direction.
Herman Henker and Miss May
Stout. well known TO many of our
people, were married at the German
NJ. f. church south OF Bushton on
Saturday last, and started Monday
for the Strip, where they viii make
their future home. The well wishes of
their many friends here go with them.
We returned Sunday morning from
the Strip where we had been on two
| weeks vacation; and we are again at
work on the old reliable. better salts
| fed with our work, our home and our
county. Some parts of the new
country is pretty fair, but there isn't
anything in the Strip that anywhere
| near equals old Barton county.
The Clafin band was organized the
