Outwitted by a MoOnshiner.
Atlanta Innrnal

When Jack Roper was called in the United
States court this morning he arose and pleaded
guilty. to working in an Illicit distillery.
With a number OF others he was sent to one
side 10 await sentence.
Working In an Illicit distillery Is nothing but
misdemeanor. while operating distillery Is
equal to a felony.
Roper knew this and entered his plea to
working in the distillery, which was accepted.
"How long did you work?" asked the Judge
when the man stood up for sentence.
"Oh bout week, / reckon"
"whose dlstillery was it?"
"My own"
The Judge looked puzzled, bur all he could
do was 10 give him two months sentence for
working In an Illicit distillery.

The Farmer and the Capitalist

He was an unaSSuming old farmer
and he came to town to get some re-
pairs for his harvester and do some
trading. He was one of those
"cranks" whom the Republicans claim
have no business dealing in politics,
but he was a reader and was well
posted on current events. Heremem-
bered the many lectures his class had
received on economy and retrench-
ment by men who live at ease on big
salaries and only recently he had read
how President Cleveland and Secre-
tary Gresham had been counseling
the people to be economical these
panicky times. On the corner he met
busted capitalist whom he well
knew and the usual questions were
passed, when the subject turned upon
the bursting of banks and business
enterprises generally, when the old
farmer commenced in great earnest
ness:
Its too bad, but fear you bank
ers and capitalists have been living
too high, and maybe there has been
an oyerprOduction Of capitalists.
You should practice economy and
live within your means. You have
probably been guilty Of buying such
useless articles as a s65 organ and
paying for music lessons for your
children, squandering your means for
a hack and horse to haul your family
around town with; paying for three
or four hats a year for your wife,
when you have been telling us zone hat
ought to last a farmers wife three
years; you probably have a lawn
mower in your yard when scythe is
good enough. And then again you
may have been In the habit Of spend.
ing your time talking politics when
you should have been at work. How
many hours day have you been in
the habit Of working?"
Busted Capitalist: "Oh, l have
been steadily at work about four tC
six hours day."
There it is again. You can't ex
pect to prosper in that way; you
should put in from twelve to sixteen
hours day; and like as not you hire
a girl to do the cooking for your wife
What are you driving at now?"
"Oh, nothing. Got nothing to do.
"Well, say my friend, / know WHERE
/ can get you good job right away
and at good pay"
''HOw much?"
Twenty dollars a month ant
board"
Twenty dollars a month. HOLY
Moses. 1t has been costing me ovel
a hundred dollars a month to keel
my family for years."
Indeed. Well, you must learn {,
economic. Put your boys and girl,
out TO work; have your wife take il
washing and you will soon com,
aroand all right. Why, some Of you
class have been telling US that breat
and water is good enough for a labor

"No, thank you; / don't want AM

The words Stand up for Kansas

Some people Think we will still
have to 60 to Kentucky to get a

There was an entire absence of

the platform.
The Republican party seems to be
taking care of its pOstmasters who
are soon to be out of a job.
The Kansas COmmoner was right
when it averred last December that
Charley Welch would strike new
job before Ray would.
A careful estimate would have
shown half the delegates in favor Of
free coinage. That question would
hrve provoked quarrel.
