The Nurses Delight.

1 ne NurSe'S Delight.
 Every experienced nurse knows the value of a remedy which, without being an anodyne, will relieve soreness of the limbs or stiffness of the joints, and en- able patient to sleep quietly and nat urally.
 l Just such remedy are Allcock's Por- ous Plasters. Placed on the chest or on the back. If necessary cut into strips and placed over the muscles of the limbs, they work marvels in the way of soothing and quieting restlessness. Being perfectly simple and harmless in their composition, they can be used freely, and many sufferer has thanked them for night of quiet rest, grateful both to him and those who care for him.

ONN MAN AS A PHALANX.

So that surging mass OF humanity,
known as Coxey's army, proves to be a
cowboy from Oklahoma. 1t is now
time to march on Washington. Mr..
Coxey should place himself at the head
of the vast concourse Of one man and
advance to the capitol, yea to the very
Intel of the lair OF the cuckoo.
As the vast army on two legs forges
on. blazing path through the fields be-
fore it, it is already easily fancied how,
at its mighty tramp, children will get
down in the damp cellar and cling, with
hysterical horror, to the ice-cream
freezer, and the rustic hog will, in ter
ror, and contradiction of all bucolic
precedent, try to crowd himself into
two-inch rat hole. Or again. as night
pins up her sable portieres, consider this
great organized band, with its back rest
ing against the gnarled root of some
kindly oak: consider this great band with
its coat collar turned up, and an occa-
sional eruption of tobacco juice, camped
where the night is spangled with a
thousand Pickering campfres. Fancy
the army, as it wildly dashes about
trying to keep the fickers Pickering.
Hear the dull threatening rumbling of op-
pressed artisans and tillers, swelling
into the starlight and ebbing into the
hadows-delivered and rendered, sim
gle handed and alone, bv that one Okl a
homa cowboy.
Ever and anon, and particularly anon,
behold the stately Coxey, with majestic
tread, pass where the rows and rows of
one man slumber on, their woes poul-
ticed with sleep. See how closely and
thlckly the army, that one man, is ly-
ing.
But Coxey passes on, in towering
grandeur. occasionally STOPPING to gaze
kindly into his army's face, and offer a
prayer.
Or again, as the morning comes, and
the first grey streaks of dawn get in
their work. fancy General Coxey, going
over and putting lighted match under
the army's nose to awaken it; or asking
this great host for chew of tobacco
And when General Coxey rides up
and down the line, at Washington, re-
viewing that great phalanx, standing
there like a stone wall and smoking one
corncob pipe, and orders it to march up
the capitol steps, consider the effect.
Think of an Oklahoma cow-puncher
trying to give an imitation of phalanx,
without previous rehearsal. 1t is in
deed narrowing.

LET THEM NOT GO By DEFAULT.

Republicans of Wichita, your party
primaries are to be held this afternoon,
in your respective wards. This is a
Republican city, yet every honest and
self-respecting man, without regard to
his party affiliations is interested in who
shall be chosen as candidates for mem
bers of the school board and city council
The whispered scurrility of the last year
in connection with some of the affairs
of the school board, will become open
scandals in the absence of such earnest
action as shall work wholesome re-
buke. The solid and honorable elements
of the city not only have reasons for be-
lieving that which we say is true, but
that the only remedy is the ballot
box. The voice of the primary
is only too sure of being the judgment
of the ballot box. If ring strikers and
the plant tools of interested jobbers and
corrupt boodlers are permitted victory
in the preliminary primary, then there
will be little chance for virtue and honor
at the polls. AS we intimate, elsewhere
in our local columns, good men are con-
fronted with very plain duty, which if
conscientiously discharged this after
noon, expenses will be curtailed, the
load of the tax payer will be lightened
and scandalous tales Of wrongs and out
RACES which have threatened to break
out to the detriment and disgrace of the
city, will be silenced and forgotten in
the administration of pure upright, men
who will seek to discharge their duties
to the public in an honorable way. If
good men are nominated they will be
elected; if bad ones their defeat may be
difficult to encompass.

+ IMMIGRATION ORGANIZATION.

A number of Kansas men have organ
lied and incorporated under the laws Of
the state an immigration organization,
and named it The Kansas immigration
company, with headquarters at Topeka.
The idea is the distribution of advertis-
ing literature setting forth the resources
of Kansas, its industries and SO on. and
the employment of agents abroad. A
special dispatch from Topeka found
elsewhere gives details. There is going
to be big immigration to the west, en-
forced by the unsatisfactory economic
conditions of the east. No western
state offers the inducements which Kan
sas holds. There is no question about
this. But there is the black eye given
tae state by Populist administration
to be got rid of, and logical and salts
factory explanations of the origin of all
the defamations that have been heralded
over the world, originating with boom
mortgage holders and fattened railroad
stock spectators and stranded adven-
turers generally, made and shown up.
An organized systematic effort is the
quickest and best way. One hundred
millions of dollars could be profitably in
vested in Kansas properties at present
prices and with perfect security.

THE BIGGE EST TOWN IN THE WORLD.

The Associated Press agent at Topeka
must be a ninny and milk-sop. The
state Republican central committee held
its meeting in that town On Tuesday,
and among other important matters
called the state convention for June,
fixing the basis for representation, etc.
Not one word of this matter was given
to the press. 1t may be that the press
agent there has also come to believe that
Topeka constitutes the state. No doubt
her people think so; but that is no ex-
cuse for a man who is supposed to have
sense enough TO know what news is.
The patrons of the Associated Press
cannot afford to know less than the
people of Topeka, heaven knows. Be
cause that town has had two ministers
plenipotentiary and now boasts both
United States senators and a congress
man, the meanwhile reaching for the
congressman-at-large, and for every
thing else in sight. including their grab
of the G. A. + headquarters, despite the
fact that the commander has always been
conceded his own zheadquarters-is no
sufficient reason why information should
be suppressed, especially when of SO gen.
eral and public character as that of q
state convention. Rumor has it that
Topeka gets the convention also, which
may further strengthen them in the con.
ceit that they can run that also in the
absence of any participation upon the
part of the balance Of the state. That
may be all true and they may make thei,
Mutual Life Association governor, and
their ex pension agent congressman.at.
large, but for appearance sake, as wei
as that OF policy. showing of defer
ence to the small remainder of the state
and its claims, might be conceded, al
least in so far as letting outsiders know
what has been agreed upon by the ring
and such other things as have transpired
beyond call.

GOOD BYE GROVER.

Last Tuesday twenty of the sixty
counties of New York held elections for
local officers. Returns show that the
Republicans elected 272 of the supervis-
ors, the Democrats 95, and the Populists
a. The New York Herald says that if a
general election were held now the Dem
ocrats would be swept from power by
such tidal wave as has not been seen
in twenty years. Well may the Herald
beat its breast and utter its note of warn
ing. Of the above counties gone Repub-
lican by big majorities, Cleveland in
1892 carried Rensselaer,, Rockland and
Ulster, to say nothing of now suffering
a great ratio of loss in several others. A
blind man can see what these mighty
straws portend. The Democratic party
doesn't know the beans of government

BMuLATED RIP VAN wINKLE.


A faint suggestion Of the story Of Rip
Van Wrinkle attaches to that of Jim
Hayes, a one time resident of village
in western Maine, located near the
boundary line between that state and
New Hampshire.
While digging ont his well one morn
ing the walls caved in, burying him be-
meath the debris, in such manner,
however, that the stones, instead OF
crushing him, formed an arch over his
PROSTATE body.
The brilliant idea occurred to Jim,
whose aversion to work, by the way,
was neighborhood proverb, that rath'
er than subject himself to the labor OF
digging his way to the surface it would
be shrewd dodge to remain quietly
where he was and let the neighbors dig
himself and incidentally his well out
for him.
4 What followed only goes to show
that man may reckon without his
neighbors. -
The latter, arriving upon the scene,
after due deliberation and discussion
of ways and means, expressed theiI
unanimous opinion in the following
unsentimental but practical syllogisnA-
That Jim was at once dead and
buried.
That dead man ought to be buried.
Conclusion-That tho best thing to
be done was TO do nothing-to- wit,
leave the we'll and Jim in such condi
tion as found.
The general consensus Of opinion wat
that the late Jim had been a lazy,
good for nothing, shiftless dog, who
had conferred greater benefit upon
the village by thus quietly dropping
out of its society without putting hii
neighbors to the trouble of burying
him than he had ever done while iv.
ing.
Remarks to this effect, and other
even less complimentary, being born
vaguely to the ears of the entombed
Jim apprising him of the worth imput-
ed to him by his fellow townsmen, he
then and there resolved to reform and
mend his ways
Realizing that a return TO his old
serious bar to these good resolutions,
the now reformed Jim set industriously
to work to dig himself out; but instead
of making his way straight upward hs
| pursued, for a rod or two. lateral
course, which eventually brought hin
out few feet the other side of tho
state boundary line Of the state OF New
