If thy hand offend thee, cut It of and
cast it from thee . etc. And if q pro-
creative gland offend thee (seriously)
pluck it out and cast it from thee, is
equally good, wise and just doctrine.
We do it with all other glands amen
able surgery, and why not this one,
which is the railroad switch of human
life, that derails many train of fine
human impulses from the track of vir-
tue, sobriety and rectitude and plungs
it into the ditch of debauchery and
crime -
The next legislature can do the state
no greater service than to provide for
the elimination of uncounted genera
tions of uncreated criminals who are
otherwise sure to be a heavy burden
on ali right-minded and virtuous citi-
zens, and also to provide proper auth
GRITTY and legal support for treating
certain public charges according to the
most advanced and humane methods
of medicine and surgery.

farmers of their homes witnessed the
scene of the sturdy frontiersmen COM
ing to the county seat in arms, as it
were, to repel the old fraud in his greed
for pelf Indignation meetings we're
held and congress petitioned for relief
from his thieving operations in forcing
honest homesteaders to purchase a
quit-claim title which was utterly
worthless and he knew it. People in
those days would sooner hung the old
demagogue than voted for him for

with the facts feel about the same way
yet. This robber will never get the

Peter Kline, the broken-down sport,
who made such ridiculous charge
against Governor Lewelling last week
is now lying down amongst the com
forts of Missouri prison. Peter got
in trouble in st. Louis on account of
his theivish propensities and was
thrown in bastile. One of the principal
witnesses against the lottery king
was a fellow named Burns. The Re
publican officials of Kansas City, Kan.
have been striving to get this witness
out of the way before the trial of Kline
and have even had grand jury indict
Burns for stealing coat several years
ago. They sent a man to st. Louis
after the witness, but the authorities
there we're on to the trick and refused
to give up the man. The chances are
that Mr.. Kline viii go to states prison.
This is the kind of people the Repubh-
cans are trying to down LeweIIing
with. twill not work

ONE of the conspicuous redeemers
on the Republican ticket is Dick Blue,
who, while a small stakeholder in a
bank in his county, drew out of it
money which had been deposited by
the farmers and business men, to the
amount of nearly ten thousand dollars
on his own individual notes which we
are told are not now nor never were
worth 10 cents on the dollar. He is a
specimen redeemer and is a fit man to
train on the same platform and in the
same party with old man ashamed-of-

PETER KLINE,s STORY.

The Republicans are getting awful
hard up for campaign mud. Last week
the press dispatches were full Of a
cock and bull story told by Pete Kline,
the lottery fakir, about how he paid
Fred Close money to be permitted to
run his robbery business in Kansas
City.
Kline was hard up for money and
first went to the Peoples party cam
paign committee and tried to get 81
600 for hush money, and when he found
it wouldn't go, he went over to the
''other place" and made deal with Le-
land and his gang of heelers, and the
story was the result. During the in
vestigation some time ago the versatile
Peter made an affidavit that he never
paid cent to any Of the Populist off,
Gals and that he never was approached
by any one to do So That affidavit
and several more valuable papers that
should have been carefully locked up
in the archives OF the capitol by the
Republican secretary of the investigat-
ing committee are missing. Where did
they go? Cy Leland or his tools could
probably tell.
The Republicans are fighting certain
defeat and are taking desperate meas
ures to stave it off as long as possible.
The conduct in the present campaign
shows this to be true. Leland. Morrill,
and his ''bar'I" are doing their best,
but it is no go. They cannot elect a
man on their ticket. This campaign is
their last, and it should be.

charging the commissioners with mis-

records will disprove these ridiculous
statements. They have not even drawn
the whole amount of the salary that is
