Sol Miller On Oranks.

It has been said that Kansas has
more cranks to the square inch than
any other state in the Union. That is
true, and always has been. A large
proportion of the people have always
been cranky. II only appears worse
now because the disease has taken a
concentrated and aggravated form.
The people of this state have been
doing things for years, in fits of tenn
porary insanity, that men in their
rational minds would not do, and Of
which they lived to be ashamed. 1t has
not been confined to any party. Re-
publlcans have been the worst cranks.
They have gone crazy over some fraud
or adventure; have stopped over on
some fool sentiment; have bitten off
more than they could chew; have frozen
out their best friends; and have acted
the fool on general principles. Because
Kansas has prospered in spite of it,
they imagined that the prosperity was
because of it. When he present craze
is over, and the people have had
breathing spell, they will start up an
other craze, and permit a lot of char
acterless shysters to bleed fat living
out of them.-TrOy Chief.

Practice What You Preach.

Republican papers during the can
vas last year said that the false state
mentS sent out in regard to the indebt-
edness of Kansas were injuring us, and
that even though they were true it
would do no good to publish it to the
world. This is true; there is no need
of advertising our misfortunes. But
the republican press is telling its read
ers that our credit has been ruined by
the proceedings at Topeka. Every un-
fortunate step of the executive is COM
mented on under a scare head. Now
supposing all they say is true. and it
probably is, what good will it do to ad-
vertise the factsp This applies now
just as we'll as it applied last fall.
-Pawnee Rock Leader.
WE ARE glad the Leader man has at
last got his eyes open, and has bravely
thrown off the cloak of republican
deceit forced upon his shoulders for SO
many years. If he will refer to the
files of the DEMOCRAT he will see that
we pointed out to him and to all repub-
lican editors the injury they were doing
by advertising to the world that Kan
sas was about to be ruined by the new.
peoples party. For the last three years
the republican press of the state has
been constantly slandering our people,
giving the impression that the whole
state was going to the dogs, just be-
cause new element in politics had had
the indepen dence to arise in indigna-
ton and sweep into oblivion the unsafe
and overbearing republican party.

Central Committee Meeting.

The democratic central committee
of Barton county met on Saturday,
March 4tb, with IA members present.
A special committee of three was ap-
pointed to look after the matter of Sc
curing the selection of committeeman
from townships where there are now
vacancies on the committee. Concerning
the matters of endorsements, unan-
imous resolution of endorsement was
given Mr.. w. d. Wilkinson for the
position of postmaster at Ellinwood.
By motion, it was decided that, as there
were contesting applicants for the other
postofices in the county, any further
action as to committee endorsements
was deferred until the next meeting.
The committee then adjourned to meet
at the Grand Central hotel, Saturday,
March 18th, at p. M, for the purpose
of considering endorsements and trans
acting such other business as might
come before the committee.

The travelling representative of the
Kansas City Times called on us last
Tuesday morning. We told him that
his paper would be more popular with
democrats if it was made more demo-
cratic. He seemed to think it was too
democratic for its own good now, and
said people were complaining on that
account. IF this is the case, it indicates
that its patronage must come princi-
pally from republicans. This is as it
should be.

A number of orders have been given
to Philadelphia IRON workers for ma
chinery to be used in distilling alcohol
from sweet potatoes. A gallon of alco-
hOl can be distilled from a bushel of
potatoes at a small cost, and there is
said to be good profit in the business.
Large quantities of alcohol are made
in the AZore islands in this way.
-Hoisington Blade.
OF WHAT interest is that to Kansas,
Mr.. Blade?. By virtue of the crankism
of the republican party of our fair
state, Kansas cannot derive any benefit
from that new discovery, although she
is the best adapted state of any in the
Union to the raising of sweet potatoes.
Some day it may be different, and we
hope the day is not far distant when
Kansas farmers can have a home
market for the things they can raise
the most successfully, such as corn
barley and sweet potatoes.

THE supreme court, just prior to the
assembling of the legislature, decided
the election cases in the following
language: "That under the constitu-
ton of this state the courts have no
power to investigate the legality of the
seats of certain members of the legis-
lature, but that each house is the sole
judge of its own members" Yet, in
the face of this decision, the same
court goes square back upon itself by
assuming to decide that under the con-
stitution of this state it-a republican
court-HAs the power to interfere;
otherwise, that no difference what the
house may decide upon as to ''its own
MEMBERS" the court can step in and
take the deciding action itself. sOnce
more let US remark: o, Consistency
thou art not a republican.
