'Newsdeacr, and J, II. Orr, prominent
merchant of that city, had fierce personal
encounter on the public square there, in
which the editor was the victor. The fight
grew out OF publication in the Newsdealer
to which MIR. Orr took exception, and was a
renewal of a similar encounter between the
two men which occurred the day before.

says:
w. S. Chamberlain, Deputy United States
Collector Of Customs at Rio Grande City,
makes strong appeal for aid for the desti-
tute of that section. He says that women
and children are starving to death that
three-fourths of the cattle have died, and
that the real situation is withheld for specu-
lative land reasons. Cornmeal, flour and
sugar, he says have risen in price beyond
the reach of poor people, and water, owing
to the protracted drouth, is selling at I2t
cents per gallon.

THE LEGIsLATURE


It'd three Republican candidates for
the legislature in this county are men
particularly well qualified for the posi-
tions for which they are candidates.

Thirty fifth representative district. north

Douglass house and he expects TO be
elected by 700 majority.

Second, Third and Fourth wards of the

times and through his experience is one
Of the best men in the city for that posi-
ton.
S. n. Gardenhire, the candidate in the
Thirty seventy district, the south district
which includes the south half of the
county and the Fifth ward, will be new
man in the legislature, but he has had
wide public experience and as a county
officer has been a faithful public servant

HOW THE DEBT CROWS.

The treasury statement just issued,
shows an increase of the public debt
during the month of October of $13,-
68O.854. The expenditures of the gov
eminent have been in excess of the re-
ceipts almost every month since the
Democratic party took charge of affairs
If this rate of increase In our obligations
continues it will not take a great while
to reach the figures which prevailed
shortly after the close of the war. This
is not the worst feature Of the case how
ever. Debts are much harder TO pay
now than they were twenty five years
ago. A half busheI of wheat would pay
dollar Of debt then; now it requires
four half bushels. Ten pounds of pork
would pay dollar of debt then, while 1t
takes twenty pounds now. A days work
Of q common laborer would liv4uidate two
dollars Of Indebtedness then, now It -I1ts
nav but one dollar and it is not SO easily
obtained even at that So it will be
seen that an increase Of thirteen milsion
dollars in the public debt at this time
means to the people who must pay It, az
much as an increase of twenty-six mil
lions did a quarter of a century ago.
The Democratic party not satisfied with
robbing the people of one half of their
circulating medium, thus lessening their
ability to pay what they already owe'
seems determined to go on increasing
the burdens of debt at the same time
What encouragement have the people
to pay off their private indebtedness
when their servants are running them IN
debt in other quarters all the timer
What is to be done?.
ManifestIy the first thing is to dis
charge the unfaithful servants and that
it is believed they will do in a great
measure tomorrow. But even then moth
ing can be done under year and at the
present rate of increase that means 80
million dollars more debt If the people
should fail to vote for their own interest
this fall the consequences are too dread
ful to contemplate.

TIE COUNTY TICKET

The Repu blicans Of Shawnee county
have decidedly the best ticket in the
field to vote for local offices at tomor-
rows election.
J. G. Wood, the candidA-e for probate
Judge, is one Of the bert known men in
the county. He has ability and expert
ence to fill the Office TO which he will be
elected, with satisfaction.
E. NJ. COckrell, the candidate for clerk
of the district court. is at present in
charge of the records of the Shawnee
county circuit court, and is regarded as a
valuable man in connection with the
county courts. He will not run behind
his ticket
County Attorney II. Q. Stafford, who has
filed the office for which he is a candi-
date for reelection, will get a good vote,
probably run ahead Of his ticket
w. ii. Wright has been county super
intendent two years, and he viii be elect
ed By a big majority.
For county commissioner T. p. Rod
gers. the Republican nominee, Is sure Of
election The very large vote he re-
ceived at the nominating primaries
makes it certain that he will have a
large majority.

HENRY B. BLACKw ELL, the we'll known
advocate Of woman suffrage Of Boston,
sends up the following interesting com
munication:
To the Editor OF the STATE JOURNAL
Every citizen of Kansas is Interested
il her material welfare. Increased bust
ness prosperity is a legitimate political
consideration
The adoption of the woman suffrage
amendment will greatly promote immi-
grafton. 1t will bring thousands Of fam
lies to Kansas who Will otherwise re-
main at home or go elsewhere. The
people who believe in equal suffrage are
now numbered by tens Of thousands in
every state north Of Mason and Dixon's
line They are among the most inteui-
gent, enteFprising and progressive of our
population. At home they have to con-
tend with conservatism entrenched in
monopoly, and would gladly join a com
munity which has shown its liberality
and appreciation Of self respecting and
public-spirited women.
From a wide acquaintance. as editor of
the Woman's Journal, with this class Of
our people from Maine to the Mississip-
pi, predict for Kansas, as a result Of the
adoption of the equal suffrage constitu-
tional amendment, an era of unequaued
prosperity and progress This is a con-
sideration which should not be over
looked A generous, larRe-hear1ed
fidelity to the principles Of representa-
tive government Will. in this case. prove
in the highest degree beneficial to the
moral and material interests of your
magnificet state, which in climate, soil
and society is already superior to almost
any other. No great movement ever
grew as fast In 1867 women voted
nowhere. Next week in Colorado 10000
women will vote: in Wyoming 80. QUO; in
Illinois 10000; in Chicago alone 10000;
in Massachusetts 10000.
Kansas has always been true to free
dom 1t is hel mission to lead her less
progressive sisters Let her take her
stand next week beside Wyoming and

Jacksonville, Jan. 1.-THE Duval club
makes a final and most positive state

out that Governor Mitchell has ordered
troops to Jacksonville for the sole pur-
pose of suppressing the contest. Not

reiterates its past assertions, and for
the past week has been arranging for
an emergency of that kind, and should
the troops be sent here, while the club
does not believe any violence would
be participated in By them, yet that
it would not subject it's patrons to the

WENT DOWN IN A GALE.
A Schooner Founders and All Aboard
Lost.

New York, Jan. 1.-THE Dutch
steamer Amsterdam, from Rotterdam,
arrived this morning and reports a
succession of gales and tremendous
seas. On Sunday last. during the
storm of northwest gales she sighted
what was supposed to be the American
fishing schooner. Maggie E. Wells,
OF Gloucester, Mass, in a sinking
condition and with the boats stove.
In response to signals for assistance.
Chief Officer ]. Meyers, Second Boat
swain Erequhart, Carpenter A. J..
Oudyn. Steerage Steward A Boso,
Quartermaster F. G. Eichhorn, Sea-
man A. Vanvleet and Seaman A.
Vanderweilt volunteered to man a boat
to rescue the crew of the sinking YES
sci, numbering fourteen.
When the boat neared the unfortu-
nate vessel, it capsized in a. souall and
all persisted except VanderweiIt. An
other crew volunteered but the captain
decided it was too hazardous and de-
cided to wait till the gale had subsidized
The steamer kept in the neighborhood
but in the heavy squat and snow
storm lost sight of the schooner and
was thereafter unable to find any trace
of her. 1t is believed she foundered
with all on board
The schooner Maggie E. Wells left
Gloucester, Mass, on December % for
Grand Banks, after a trip for fresh
halbut. No news has been received
Of her since. Neu
The crew consisted of Captain Dav-
ldson and thirteen men.
