Having landed upon the shores of the
new world the intrepid colonists pro-
ceeded at once to turn the stubborn

great harvest of experience and other
necessities of life in the wilderness.

THE AsYLUM's DARK THINGS.

A great many hints and open COM
plants are INDUCED in touching the
condition of the charitable institutions
of the state under the rule of the Pop
board of which Col. Mary Lease is boss.
Speaking OF the deplorable condition of
affairs at the deaf and dumb asylum at
Olathe whose inmates are about the
same number, each. of males and fe-
males, the Olathe Herald, Democratic
paper, says:
Mrs. Mary Lease has much to say in
her interviews about the state admins
tration. We would suggest that she
give little more time to the position to
which she was appointed by Governor
Lewelling-that is president of the state
board of charities. She could spend a
little time at the deaf and dumb Institu-
ton situated at this city and let the
public know why the large boys thrash
cd one of the teachers, why young
Mapes was expelled from school, why
the employees and superintendent cannot
agree. why Wilson, the gardner, a par
t,cuiar friend Of the superintendent, was
discharged, why Mrs. Bryant came and
took her daughter Matte out OF school?
Ii Mrs. Lease cannot give the time to
answer these questions we may answer
them for her. She owes her time to the
state and to the parents OF these deaf
children. to look after them and see
that they are properly taken care Of. If
she cannot do this it would be well for
the governor to get some one who can.

TEEIR ABNORMAL MOUTH DEVELOP
MENT

i That little scheme of the Pops for con-
trolling the next legislature by electing
Their candidates for county clerk-that
| being tie officer who handles the cleo
ton cernficates-was cIeverly con-
ceived, but sadly spolei in its execu-
ton. In charity we viii save them the
much hackneyed quoation associatlng
| schemes with mice aud foolish men, but
all candid people, even OF the Pop per-
suasion, must see that it was in the last
act that this clever plot SD ingloriously
failed. TIL. thing went IF too soon.
Ore OF the conditions precedent was an
election of these very county clerks, who,
by the decree Of perverse fate, hap
pened to be the other fellows. The
recipe for rabbit stew, given by a noted
French cook, would have served our
over sanguine friends in this affair
First catch your hare" The game in
this instance is still at large, and its pur-
suers ratified, routed and ruined Now
permitted to suggest that parties, like in
dividuals, learn with age. The Old cam
paigner would have COMPRISED such a
design as this with the stiffness of whis-
pering zephyrs. and the first announce
ment of his purpose would be the fig
ures showing it was done.
The abnormal development of mouth
has been IA source OF embarrassment all
along with this new order, and IL is only
through these discouraging object lessons
that its managers will learn TO curb the
unruiy member. They will have time
to consider the vulnerable points in all
such deals. The working plan laid down
in this instance contemplated that an
occasional fool would barter MS vote for
clerk for Pop promise 10 support a
favorite candidate for some other office.
Here the thing failed, as they might
have known.
Another weak spot was the SUPPOSE
ton that bogus returns could have been
made even granting that every clerk in
the state was a Pop. Strange that their
late experience in calling out the militia
to accomplish this very thing did not
deter them, but here we enter the plea
of extreme youth again. Then. if we
may be pardoned the use Of an offensive
term, it was a plain piece of rascality.
Even an individual, or an aggregation
OF them, who had sloughed off as an in
TO cradle excrescence from old party
affiliations should know that the best
policy is close parallel to common
honesty.

Wichita for Water,

From the Kansas City Times
The eyes of Kansas irrigators will be
turned toward Wichita today, where
meets probably tie last convention of its
kind that will be held until next spring.
Il is not disclosed just what the conven-
ton proposes to do about opening the
sluice gates and pouring rich stream
of muddy water over the parched plains
of western Kansas, hut its intention is
undoubtedly good. II some of the force
that is expected at these meetings in res
buttons and petitions 10 congress was
turned upon the question itself, the result
would be more satisfactory, but resoiu-
tons and petitions are good ID their way.
So long as there is call for such things
the interest is evidently undated. and II
may be hoped that in time Kansas will
sec the actual fullfilimene of ali tie rosy
promises that will be setforth at Wichita
today.

Palmer, Bishop Faliows, William Penn
Nixon, Richard Powers, Mrs. Charles
Henrotin and Editor Stead of the IRE

the measure. Mr.. Peck, among others,
made a speech advocating the PROPOSE
ton. The meeting appointed commit
