AT ITS OLD TRICKS.

The Topeka Capital of August 16
published a purported interview
dated Salina, Kas., with one A. L.
Hawkins who was just returning from
a visit to the Olsthe school for the
deaf and dumb where two Of his
children are being educated. In thts
interview, Mr.. Hawkins is repre-
sented as reporting everything in bad
shape, all the old teachers discharged
and a lot Of incompetents put in their
places, and everything going to the
dogs. The object Of it all was to
bring the new administration into
disrepute and bring disCredlt thereby
to the Peoples party. The story has
been some time getting around to
Mr.. Hawkins and receiving a denial;
but as every sensible man must have
known from the first it turns out to
be falsehood from beginning to end.
We find in the Alliance Echo OF
October 6 the following extract from
a letter Of MIR. Hawkins, which shows
that the Capital is still at ITS old
tricks, making its campaign upon
falsehood and misrepresentation:

NOT CORRECT,

Every vote against the republican ticket
in Douglas county is a vote to endorse Hoke
Smitbr--Lswrence World, October 6.
Now, Brady, you know better than
that. You know there is not a Popu-
list in Kansas or any where else who
endorses Hoke Smith or anything
else about this democratic admins
tration. What is the use Of such
nonsense? 1t is not creditsble either
to your Judgment or your honesty.
We only undertake to speak for the
Populist voters, and we can assure
you that every Populist vote against
the republican ticket IN Douglas
county and every other county, is a
protest against the policy Of the re-
publican party, which has been
adopted and perpetusted by the DEM
ocratic party, and which has brought
disaster to all classes of American
citizens, except the creditor class
Open your eyes and look about you.
Take notice of the low price of the
products of industry everywhere, the
enforced idleness of millions of men
who are both able and anxious to
work, and endeavor for once to learn
the cause OF these things. Can you
see any reason why men who are
willing to work should be idle in a
country like this, and why they and
their wives and children should be
on the verge of starvation, while the
graineries of the country are burst
ing with plenty7 Can you see any
craftsmanship in policy which per-
mits such things? Forget your par
tisanship long enough to study these
questions and see if you can't solve
them. You will find the subject

do to permit such representative
citizens to be treated as common
criminals. Accordingly when these
gentry were convicted in the police
court, their cases were taken up on
appeal, and the republican court
above was not long in finding that
the law does not apply TO such cases,
and these sristocrRts were discharged.
Another case was brought in the
same court against this club. It was
an injunction against the use of this
sristoCratiO clubhouse as drinking
house. This has also been decided
in favor of the club, and its members
may now continue their nightly revels
undisturbed, unless the supreme
court shall reverse the decision ofthe
court below when it goes up on sp-
peal.
Several other cases of conviction
in the police court have been carried
up to this republican court and the
violators Of law have been released
on trifing technicalitieS, showing
conclusively that the position of the
leaders and officials Of the republi-
Gao party upon this question is one
of hypocrisy and deceit.
Prior to the appointment of Mr..
Whiting on the board of police COM
missioners, several good republican
citizens of Topeka who were un-
doubtedly perfectly sincere IN their
desire to see good order and good
government prevail in this city, fire.
quently asked us to use our influence
to secure the appointment Of men Of
honesty and integrity upon the board
of commissioners, saying that they
were more interested in law and
order than in partisan politics. We
now desire to know where these men
stand in relation to the recent court
decisions. Il is our turn now to call
upon them to see that officials of
their own party abandon partisan
ship in the administration of law.
Will they show their hand or must
we show 1t for them?

The city council has done one good

The city council has done one good
thing in enacting that every ton Of
coal sold by any dealer shall be
weighed on the city scales. The deal
ers kick about it ostensibly on &C.
count Of the charge Of s cents for
weighing. If this is the best objec-
tion they can offer to the plan, it is
not serious. The purchaser of the
coal could better afford to pay for the
weighing than to have the council re-
cede from ITS enactment. Every pur-
chaser of coal must have observed
the difference in bulk in the tons Of
coal that come from different dealers.
Some Of them are undoubtedly hon
est and give honest weight, and the
amount they give for ton shows that
others do not give honest weight. By
all means let the coal be weighed on
the city scales.

PROHIBITION IN TOPEKA.

the political leaders and officials o
the republican party upon the ques
tion of prohibition. While there are
thousands Of sincere, honest prohibi
tionists among the voters in the state
the manipulstors Of this one and only
party Of great moral ideas have
always managed, while using tho
question TO catch votes, to secure the
election to official positions, of mer
who would defeat the enforcement Of
the laws. enacted for the suppression
Of the liquor traffic. During a few
of the first months Of Governor Lew.
elling's administration a great how
was raised here by the republican
papers and politicians because the
police board Of this city was negli'
gent in the performance of it's duty,
There might have been some justice
in these complaints had there been
any sincerity in them. It was per-
fectly apparent, however, that the cry
was q fraud, being designed only to
bring discredit upon the Populist
administration, and not to promote
the enforcement of law and good
government in the city.
If there was any ground for doubt
on this subject at any time it has
been removed by subsequent events.
The governor, whose limited acqusin-
tsnce with the people Of this city,
led him at first to make a bad sp-
pointment on the board of commits
sioners, corrected his mistake and
appointed a man whose integrity and
sincerity cannot be questioned by the
bitterest enemy of the Peoples party
"a man who would not remain in
such q position were not the whole
power Of the administration to be re-
lied upon for the enforcement OF
every law. Under the new regime,
the policy that has prevailed here un-
der GU former administrations has
been reversed. Instead CT picking
up obscure offenders from the back
alleys and visiting upon their de-
fenselesS heads the penalties of vio-
lated law in order to seem to be doing
something, while the sristocratic i'm
biber of Intoxicating beverages was
unmolested, the new board thought it
best to begin at the top and make an
example of those who move in the
upper strata of Topeka society, oc-
cupy the upholstered pews of the
aristocrstic' churches-"the big four''
whose ministers decline, If correctly
reported, to unite with the ministers
Of 'the smaller churches" in thank
ing the commissioners and the police
for their faithful duty. The new
board believed that if crime could be
suppressed in high places, the exam
pie would deter criminals Of less con-
sequence from the pursuit Of unlawful
occupations This was An innovation
that atonce called forth q vigorous
protest from the organ of great moral
