OKLAHOMA is now settled up and the
next cry will be ION for western Kan
sas." The homestead law is more lib
eral in its application here than in Okla
homa, while those who don't care to
homestead can secure title at once and
with very little cash outlay. The nov
city of the Cherokee strip has worn
away and the superior inducements held
out to settlers will be sure to attract
many to our community. Land is much
cheaper here now than it will ever be
again and those who invest will be sure
to find it profitable.

Bureau of Information.

"The Burlington" has recently estab-
lished in convenient quarter of its ele.
CANT and commodious passenger station,
at Chicago. an Office designed to afford
travellers information on the thousand
and one things they need to know, with
regard to routes, rates, connections and
accommodations. 1t has been placed in
charge of an experienced man, supplied
with all railway guides, maps and time
tables, and is known as the Bureau OF
Information"
It is place to which all travellers may
apply for information and receive fair
and correct answer. This is the only
Office of the kind west of the sea-board
cities, and it cannot but prove help
and convenience to the travelling public.
All trains of the Burlington" enter and
depart from this station, and the intelli-
gent and valuable service of the Bureau
may be enjoyed by all patrons of this
line
A special pamphlet will be issued by
the Burlington" in the near future, Civ
ing accurate information as to ''How to
get to the Worlds fair grounds )" How
to secure rooms and board at the various
hotels, boarding and lodging houses"
Trustworthy agents will be at the c.,
3. & @. depot in Chicago, to impart all
information to visitors. Arrangements
will probably be made by which some
trains will be run direct to the World s
Fair grounds without change or delay.

In seventy-seven counties of the state
the democrats have nominated straight
tickets and there are several yet to hear
from. The fact is that hereafter to be a
democrat one must vote the democrat
ticket, even in Kansas, and some will

administration is now taking that view.
From this on republican will stand

The Repubhcan Party on the
Money! Question.

The following from the republican
platform, adopted at Minneapolis, June
9Th, 1892, shows that the republican
party is bimetallic party. Read it
carefully, O my brethren, who accuse
the republicans of being monometallic
gold bugs:
1.-THE American people, from tradi-
tion, and interest, favor bimetallism,
and the republican party demands the
use of both gold and silver as standard
money, with such restrictions and un,
der such provisions, to be determined
by legislation, as will secure the main
tenance of the parity of values of the
two metals, so that the purchasing and
debt-paying power of the dollar. whether
of silver, gold or paper, shall be at all
times equal. The interests of the pro-
ducers of the country, its farmers and
its workingmen, demand that every dol
lar, paper or coin, issued by the govern
1pent shall be as good as any other"

WHAT do you think of minority gov
eminent % or minority party that
will deliberately appropriate the state
funds to carry on its campaign, that will
print it's campaign documents at the
states expense and distribute them
through the various express Offices at
the expense OF the state? Can you make
anything else out of the printing and
sending out of the so-called House
Journal" of the Dunsmore club that
held its erstwhile and spasmodic meet
ings in the cellar of the state house2
This blouse Journal" only covers time
from January 10 to February %, 1898,
and there is no excuse for its publica-
ton for any purpose other than as po-
litical buncombe, and has there ever
been a law whereby political buncombe
is to be paid for by the state. Verify,
verify this populistic economy is high

ties and its settlement and cultivation
will prove beneficial to western Kansas.
Every quarter section of desirable land
has been taken. For some time all eyes
had been turned towards the strip and,
until its settlement, but little could be
done to induce emigration to Kansas.
To-day western Kansas offers better in
duceRents to those in search of cheap
homes than any other section in the
United States. During our trip through
Kansas we found no section where the
farmers were in better condition as re-
CARDS crop prospects than they are in
Trego county. The drouth was almost
universal. We have all had hard times,
Bat we believe there is silver lining
and that there is bright future for us.
The darkest hour is always just before
dawn. Next year will see revival OF
all branches of industry or we fail to
read the signs correctly.

REPUpL1cANs will not be deceived this
year by the old arguments that politics
should cut no figure in local affairs. ["
The election for county officers in Kan
sas this fall is fraught with the greatest
importance and politics will ''cut some
figure" The populists have been busy
since the election last fall, through their
state and county organization in prepa-
ration for the coming election. They
have prostituted their official positions
to partisan purposes and have appropri-
ated the funds of the state to pay the ex-
penses of their nefarious work, and all
this in preparation for the election
this fall. They openly boast that they
will capture the county clerks and with
them they have little to fear for next
year, no matter how the people may
vote. They expect that with the aid of
the county clerks they will be able to
steal the state legislature, and therefore
the United States senatorship. The re-
publieans must not be found wanting in
party loyalty. The man who scratches
a republican ticket this year will be a
traitor to his party. The eyes of the
country are turned upon Kansas with as
much interest as upon Ohio or Iowa, and
Sunfower republicanism must answer
them with the shout of triumph.-Kan-
sas City (Kansasl Gazette.

THERE is question to be settled by
the people, the voters, in the fall of 1894
that deserves serious consideration
The equal suffrage campaign has been
formally opened and will be vigorously,
Systematically carried on to the final
settlement of the question. The most
noted advocates of woman's suffrage
from all over the United States have en-
listed their services on the side of the
Kansas women, and it almost looks as
though the Kansas woman was the least
interested of all in this matter, but it
may be because her enthusiasm has not
vet been kindled on the subject. 1t is
to be hoped that this matter will receive
serious, sober, intelligent thought. Do
not make up your mind through preju-
dice only; if you cannot argue the ques-
ton in your own mind to your own sat-
isfaction, do not try to form asettled con-
clusion; wait till you have heard the ar
gument, and you will surely hear it for
the fight is to be carried into Egypt; no
quarter is asked none is given.

SECRETARY OF STATE OSBORN applied
for new trial in the criminal libel case
against him. This was denied and the
secretary must either appeal to the SUI
preme court or go to the penitentiary.
This would be the only recourse
but, of course, the governor has the par
doning power and would exerciseit. The
only penalty that the crazy secretary
will ever experience is the contempt of
all fair minded honest men, including

THE new party was organized under
the alluring banner of "Reform." 1t
was given out that the Office should seek
the man and that none but the pure in
heart should be eligible. In candor we
ask you brother populists to what extent
these promises to the people have been
carried out and whether your leaders
have not basely betrayed you-the vot-
ers of the party7 We can't especially
blame you who were sincere in enlisting
ia an organization which promised so
much, but now that you find that every
promise has been broken, that your or
ganization was only used to place men
in Office who had been spurned by the
respectable element of both the old
parties; that the party is now in full
control by those whose only apparent
object is to provide good positions for
themselves and families, isn't it about
time that you throw away prejudice and
calmly review results and at the same
time mediate upon the future POSSIBLE
ties of tie organization which promised
30 much at its inception. No party has
ever existed in any of the states of our
Union where the whole machinery was
invoked for the sole purpose of securing
Offices as is the condition of the populist
administration in Kansas to-day, not
withstanding the party itself has been
in existence but few brief years. 1t
begins with the governor who has his
daughter in Office at salary of $1,000
year. A sister $500 a year and her son
5000. Another relative was made po-
liceman and another is guide in the state
house. Van B. Prather has his wife
drawing 81 200 as bond clerk. Osborn
has given his son 81 900 as chapter clerk,
and tried to work Chief Clerk Rice off
on railroad commissioners so that an
other son could draw that good salary.
S. H. Snider gives his wife 5000 year
as clerk. The notorious Pitcher has his
wife drawing good salary as matron
over the unfortunate imbecile girls at
Winfield. 1. w. Pack gave his wife
position at the Topeka Insane asylum,
and the state keeps several of his child
rem, horse and dog. P. L. Dixon gave
his wife good place at Olathe. G. F.
Nesley secured place for his wife at
the same institution. Waterman Nor
ris also had his daughter fixed on the
pay roll of the same, and Mrs Lease
had her son drawing good salary dur
ing vacation, but he is in school again.
At the Osawatomie asylum the entire
Wilson family is on the pay roll at big
and little salaries when the state should
be making Wilson pay the state for the
keeping of half dozen of his children.
PETER and his son and daughter draw
1880 year, the two children working
not to exceed two hours day. w. w.
Wiley of the Reform school has his wife
and daughter on salaries, and has the
balance of his family quartered on the
state. But the penitentiary shows the
best example of genuine reform. Four
of the Chase family are on the pay roll
of that institution, drawing total of
$4,700.
