Is GOVERNOR FELT ASHAMEDG

The Atchison Champion says the
ADVOCATE ought to be heartily
ashamed Of itself for publishing mat
ter which reflects upon the character
and integrity of republican csndi'
dates. Will the Champion be kind
enough to point out something which
the ADVOCATE has published that is
not true? And should the ADVOCATE
be ashamed of publishing the truthG
Is Governor Felt taking this method
OF confessing that he is ashamed OF
publishing the scandals concerning
Populist candidates and which he
very we'll knows are falsehOods man
ufsCtured out of whole cloth? Does
he not know the Pete Kline stories
that are running in republican pa"
pers, the Champion among the rest,
were prepared for the purpose of en-
abling Jim Legste and Nels Acers to
levy blackmsil upon the Populist CEN
tral committee; and that when this
scheme failed the stories were bought
and paid for by the republican state
central committee as the best cam
paign material the committee could
find? Does he not know that, while
il is claimed that the Populist sd-
ministration has been corrupted by
gamblers and jointisTs, this same
gang OF outlaws admits that the men
they wanted appointed on the boards
Of police oommississioners and to
other positions in the gift of the ad'
ministrstion we're not sppointed3
Does he not know that in
all the stories published no
money has ever yet been traced be-
yond the hands of Jim Legate? Jim
Is a good republican and is now in the
service of the redsemsrs. In fact he
is one of them. Governor Felt knows
all these things He knows about
the investigation of these charges,
by a senatorial committee, two mem.
bers Of which were republicans; and
he knows the unanimous verdict Of
that committee. He knows that the
letter Of Senator Taylor which iE
published without date and made to
appear as though the Pete Kline
letter was an immediate answer to it,
was written before that investigation
took place. He knows that the date
OF that letter was intentionally sup
pressed in order to deceive the peo
pie. Governor Felt knows all these
things, and yet he published these
scandals. Is he ashamed Of itl i
so let him say so, and like an homes
man condemn the dsmnsble cam
paign methods of Cy Leland's com
miEtee. We know that the better
element Of the republican party doel
condemn these methods, and we be-
lieve that Governor Felt would do 81
openly il his partisanship did no
snbdue his better nature.

former. Populist papers long ago
exposed the false pretense respecting
the condition Of the United States
treasury by showing that Secretary
Foster contemplated an issue Of
bonds under Hsrrison's sdministrs-
tion and actually had the plates pre-
pared from which to print them.
The administration knowing the un-
popularity Of such a proceeding fin
ally concluded TO postpone the issue
until after the presidential election,
and republican newspapers and pol
itcisns have since denied that any
plates were prepared by Secretary
F oster, or that the republican admin
istration ever contemplated an issue
Of bonds. The fact is, If Harrison
instead of Cleveland had been
elected, the bonds would have been
issued just the same. They had been
promised and they had to come, no
matter which party succeeded. This
question is now set at rSst.by letter
from Secretary Carlisle in answer to
o letter Of inquiry upon the subject
which letter is published in the Ma
tional Watohmsn Of October II, and
is as follows:
TREASURY DEPARTNGRNT,
OBRIoE OF SRoRATARY,
WASHINGTON, D. O., Sept. IL, 1894. }
To Mr.. George W. Dun, Ti1ln, o.:
DAAR S1R:-Your favor of the 14th inst.
is received, and in response you are ad'
viBed that Secretary Foster, before he left
the department, ordered plates for the
issue of bonds TO be prepared, but the 80
million dollars Of bonds issued in Febru-
ary last were not engraved upon the plates
that is to say, the plates which Secretary
Foster had prepared, were changed in order
to make them conform to the character OF
bonds issued in February. Yours very
truly, J. g. CARLISLE
It will thus be seen that republi-
can pretensions upon thus subject,
like all their other pretensions, are
hypocriticsl and fraudulent, and de-
signed for purposes of deception.
The condition of the treasury was
owing to republican extravaganza
and Encouragement, as its affairs
had been in their hands exclusively,
and they cannot escape the responsl"
bility. The condition would SShsVe
been the same under democratic ad'
ministration had the opportunity
been theirs, but il was not.

WORDS OF WISDOM

The simple heart that freely asks in
love obtains.
The society Of women is the element
Of good manners.
Better little chiding than a great
deal of heartbreak.
A man in earnest finds mears, or if
he cannot find, creates them.
Some men weave their sophistry till
their own reason is entangl,d.
Moderation is commonly firm, and
tirmness is commonly successful.
Oh, how portentous is prosperity?
How, comet-like, it threatens while it
shines.
No woman is educated who is not
equal to the successful management of
a family.
The memory has as many moods rs
the temper, and shifts its scenery like
dlorama.
There are few wild beasts more to be
dreaded than a talking man having
nothing to say.
He that knows the world VIII not lie
bashfnI; he who knows himself will
not be impudent.
Conceit Is vanity driven from all
other shifts, and forced to appeal to it.
self for admiration.

PA UL JONES AND
LORD SELKIRk' .S Pr 4 re.
The Home Journal.

A Paris correspondent writes to the
London Timcs:-W hile examining onIe
manuscripts in the French National
Archives, found curious memoran-
dunn by The celebrated Paul Jones, in
which he gives, for the information of
Louis XVI, minute account of his
exploits during the American War for
Independence. He doubtless wrote
the narrative in English, and then had
it translated into French and transcrib-
ed in plain round hand. The sub
joired passages, relating to Lord Sell
kirk plate, are, therefore, not in his
own words, but have undergone IL
double translation. They are, howev-
er, curious as being his own unpublish-
ed version Of an affair, in which, as
usual he did not fail to sound trump
ct before him:
"Returning on board the Ranger, the
wind being favorable, sailed for the
Scottish coast My intention was to
capture the Earl of Selkirk and detain

in the fertile field of typographical
errors, says Mr. Brander Mathews, the
devils work sometimes causes such
curious facilities of style that it is hard
to believe they are unintentional. It
seems quite right for locomotive to
cut COW into calves. During the war
a Western paper said that the army
was in want of consecrated beef and
desecrated vegetables; and about the
same time a gigantic headline, The
British Lion Shaking His Mane,' was
spread before the astonished world as
"The British Lion Skating in Name"
A MOBILE paper said river steamboat
had come to grief, owing to running
against rat; the subscribers wondered
probably at the unusual size of water
rat, but felt relieved when the next
number Of the paper said for "rat'
read craft" A Chicago paper said
''At the commencement Of the second
scene the king of terrors made his 6rst
appearance" which would lead one to
believe that 5risly death had been
visitor to the entertainment; but upon
examination it appears terrors" should
be ''tenors."

Every tramp arriving at Elkhart,
Indiana, is first vaccinated, after which

he is hidden to move on.

CHILLING SMITH.

Miss Kate Field relates an exper-
lence which she had in trying to sleep
in hotel in a Utah mining town
where the partitions between the rooms
were of boards merely and quite lnno-
cent OF lath and plaster. The ordi-
Diary going and coming of the early
part of the night were bad enough, but
toward morning, when at last she had
fallen asleep, lond voice shouted from
her keyhole:
''Smith. Smith,"
AS her name was not Smith. she
made no response.
"Smith!' came the shont again.
''lt's time to skip!
"My name is not Smith," she then
answered.
From across the hall came the call
of the day clerk, ho occupied the
room there:
'No. That ain Smith. Smiths

swell, this is the end of the hail.
came from the neighborhood of the KEY
hole again. It was the voice of the
porter.
''Aren there two ends to the hall?
It's the other end, you blockhead."
''Who wants Smith" came sharp
voice from the distance. ''l'm Smith"
"What's the mater? I'm Smith,"
came still another voic,.
+ "Well, whichever Smith wants to
get up at 4 o'clock, him's the one
growed the porter.
Both these Smiths slammed their
doors with vehement protestation
that they didn't want to get up.
''lt's Smith in No ~ screamed the
day clerk.
The rig hit Smith had not been wax
ed at all, SO the por er found No l and
pounded on the door so hard that
everybody in the house who had not
already been walked WAS aroused, and
several people rushed out into the hall,
thinking there was fire.
The porter went down complacently
to the Office on the floor below.
Well said he to he night clerk,
81 walked hum up anyhow.

GET ALL OUT OF LIFE YOU CAN.

'Tis very good rule-as rules may 60
Ofvalue to boy and to man;
To set the days by the star of faith
And get all out of life that he can.
The Golfers of hope hold infinite stores,
And We may supply them at will,
We may heap them with treasure that never
shall fade,
With wonderful beauty may Fl |.
Yes, get out of life all We can every dag
But let us reflect on the meaning.
Shall we wrest from the weak because we are
strong
Each thing that of valusis seemins9
Shall we feel that possessions are riches alone?
And insist that We lead in the van?
In fulfilling this rule that we hold for our days.
To get all out of life that We can?
There are those who do this, but you will not. :.
l know,
For you hold that the secret of living
OF beautiful days full of infinite charm
Lies only in loving and giving.
To g out of life We must put iIto life
All generous courage, all sweetness,
Be thoughtful for thers, be courteous and kind,
And then will life grow to completeness.
And thus will the days as they glide into years
Hold their riches fol boy and for man
Who follows this rnl in its me lning sublime.
To get all out of life that he can.

THE BRAVEST BATTLE EVER FOUGHT.
BY JOAQUIN MILLER.

The 5ravest battle that ever was fought,
Shall | tell you where and when?
On the maps of the world you wi find it no
Twas fought by the mothers of men.
Nay, not with cannon or battle shot,
With swords or noble pen;
Nay, not with eloquer wold or thought
From mo ouths of wonderful men.
But deep in walled up woman's heart
Of woman that would not yield,
But braveIy, silently bore her part
Ii, there is that bat lefed.
No marshaling troors, no bivouac song,
No banners to gleam and wave!
But, oh those battles they last so long
Frim babyhood t. the grave.
Yet faithful sti as bridge of stars,
She fights in her walled up TOWN.
Fights on and on in the endless wars;
Then silent, unseen, goes down.
Dye With banners and battle shot
And SC | liers to shout and praise.
l tell you the kingliest victories fought
Are fought in these silent ways.
O spCtless woman in world of shame.
With splendid and silent scorn,
Go back to God as white as you came,
The k;lgliest warrior born.

If we could roll the veil of ages back,
And on Hymettus quatf the bacchants

Or down tn Olympic's broad and dusty track
Vie with the maker racers madCening speed
If we could on the eve of hemlock's cup
Be one of those who on his farewells hung
Or cheered the starry soul, that, boiling up
To heigh's unseen as yet, with silver tongue
Flung down still Brighter pearls of dying
thought
Would such translation be too dearly
bought
If we could thrill the laZzlrori's face,
Gray with dull greed and duller hoplessness,
Into the ancestral fire, the ancestral grace,
These rags transform into an augur's dress,
Wonld we lame mt the lost electric flash,
The swift-winged courser of the iron track,
Or with relentless hand the mirror crash
That brings these vanished forms of beauty
bach.
