LADAS WINS THE DERBY
LORD ROSEBERY'S GREAT COLT
FIRST UNDER THE WIRE.
Perhaps the Most Sensational Race of the
Great Turf Event Witnessed by
One Hundred Thousand En-
thusiastic Englishmen.

LONDON, June 6.-Lord Rosebery's
bay colt Ladas, at Epson today won
the derby. The destiny which Lord
Rosebery mapped out for himself when
at college has been fulfilled. He mar
ried the richest girl in England, Miss
Hanna De Rotchsilds, he is prime min
lister of England and he won the derby
today with his bay colt Ladas, the
winner of 1000 guineas on May 8 and
the winner of the Newmarket stakes
on May %, The derby, the greatest Of
all horse races, is for 5000 sovereigns,
the winner to receive 5000 ($25, 0OW,
the nominator of the winner 500 SOW
ereigns, to the owner of the second
800 sovereigns, and the owner of the
third 200 sovereigns out of the race.
The event is for 3>year olds, colts to
carry stone and tillies to carry s
stone pounds, entrance sovereigns,
distance about one mile and a half.
It is doubtful if so much interest has
ever before been taken in the derby.
There were several causes for this
state of affairs. In the first place
many thousands of people were apX-
ious to see the derby because it is the
great eveLt of the turf. In the second
evente Ladas, owned by the prime
minister of Great Britain, was looked
upon as being the horse of the year,
his previous victories having woh him
hosts of friends who wanted to see
once more the primrose and rose hoops
with rose colored cap Nord Rose
bery's colors) flying to the front of
everything else in the field.
Thus it was that the special trains
at London bridge and Victoria sta
tions, which run every five minutes,
were packed to the utmost with the
by many people who had never before
ventured to EPSON, but went there
today in order to see "Rosebery win
the third event."
The morning was dull and dreary,
rain threatening and fog predominant
ing. But snow storm would not have
kept those crowds away from Epson
doT rs today. The travellers to Ep-
som by train, however, damned,

singing, into the stuffy box.like car

REPUBLICAN STATE PLATFORM.

The state republican convention at To
peka adopted this platform:
Reaffirming the republican national platform
of 1892.
Resolved. First: The constant patriotism OF
our party is in itself guarantee to the nation
that the interests of its defenders, their widows
and orphans will be literally cared for, and we
denounce their cruel and deliberate betrayal by
the present democratic administration.
Second: We adhere to the republican doctrine
of protection. and believe that tariff laws should
protect the products of the farm well the
factory.
Third The American people favor bimetal-
ism and the republican party demands the use
of both gold and silver as standard money with
such restrictions and under such provisions to
be determined by legislation, Will secure the
maintenance of the parity of values of the two
metals. and that the purchasing and debt pay
ing power of the dollar whether of gold. silver
or paper, shall be at all times equal. The in
terests of the producers of the country its farm
ers and its working men, demand that the mlnts
be opened to the coinage of silver of the mines
of the United States and that congress should
enact a law levyIng tax on importatlOns of
foreign silver sufficient to fully protect the pro-
ducts of our mines
Fourth: We favor national and state legisla-
ton for the announcement of irrigation.
Fifth: We dcnounce the present state admin
istration for its violation of the laws and CON
tempt of the courts. the corruption and incom-
potency of its officials, its gross m1smanagem
of the state institutions and for ii dscredIt 1t
has brought upon the good name of the state.
And we pledge the republican party and the
nominees of this convention to the faithful and
economical discharge of all official duties, to a
strict observance and an honest enforcement OF
law, and to obedience to the mandates of the
courts.
pies we invite the support of all patriotic cltl-

Government Ownership.

Chicago Tribune
There are only two classes of people
who demand government ownership of
railroads in the United States. They
are very few who do so without count
ing the tremendous cost and eventual
loss and certain corruption, and more
numerous set who think the purchase
could be effected at no real cost at all.
The latter are the populists, who want
the railroad owners to be taken by the
throat and made to exchange their prop
erty for lot of government scrip issued
without any provision for redemption in
coin, and therefore sure to sink to worth
lessness very soon after it was paid out.
Those of them who talk about buying
with scrip bonds propose that the bonds
ultimately shall be paid off in irredeem-
able fat scrip, SO that nothing would be
gained by accepting them. Also, these
populist cranks are crazy enough to be-
lieve that the wages of the workers on
the government railroads could be paid
in some kind of shinplasters. Their
plan simply is one of confiscation, to be
attempted to be made to look respect
able by keeping up the farce of fiat
money for awhile after the steal had
been carried out. The advocates of such
a scheme are cranks of the worst sort. so
near the border line between sanity and
insanity that it is hard to say on which
side of it they belong, and it is matter
for wondering regret that a few more
sensible folks should so far give counte-
nance to their fiat madness as to talk
seriously in the direction of railroad
ownership by the government.

Ashamed of Kansas.

Judge L. W Keplinger, of Kansas
City, Kansas, says to the Gazette: I
notice the populist press is making a
great ado because of the alleged stat >
ment by Morrill, that he was ashamed
of Kansas" [ heard the speech in
which this statement is claimed to have
been made. and the action of the popu-
list press recalls the old story Of the
good brother who opposed a certain
fashion then prevalent among women
of doing up their hair. He based his OPP
position purely upon scriptural grounds
because forsooth the bible said ''Top
knot, come down." Upon being chal-
lenged to find any such injunction in
the bible he turned triumphantly to the
following passage: Let him that is
upon the house top not come down."

When Giving a Musicale.

at an evening musicale it is wise
Co limit the performance to either
the amateur or professional ranks,
as the enforced contrasts are apt to
be to the detriment of the former.
However, there is no rule in the
matter, aud it is certainly a matter
which rests only with the hostess for
decision whether or not she shall add
her talents to those she has engaged
for the eutainment of her guests. 1t
is not usual to have distributed pro-
grams at a social musicale; if the
event be given for any special pur-
d Sc, and tickets are sold for it,
then the patrons of the entertain
ment expect to receive programs.
Neither is 1t usual in the former case
to announce either the selections or
the performers A clever hostess will
contrive to present few of her most
musical guests to the performers
earlyin the even ny so that the art
lists may enjoy the social side of the
mus Gale. Do not attempt, il you
have a large number of guests, to
have every one meet every one else.

and that no one is left to solitary

eral introductions at large affair. -

FIVE DOLLARS EACH.
Enormous Campaign Fund.

One of the men who has wGvered in the
faith has sent letter to the republican
state central committee that he received
from Chairman Breidenthal of the popu-
list committee. The part of the letter
relating to the campaign is as follows:
I'm order to keep up the campaign in
the lines mapped out by the committee,
we must have more funds. The COM
mittee has already expended over $4,000,
most of which has been contributed by
the state officers and employees. We de-
sire to find one thousand populists who
will contribute S. each. Will you be
one of this number? If SO, send your
remittance at once.
The people in the western part of the
state are unable to contribute anything
to the campaign fund, and in order to
elect members to the legislature from
that section, the campaign expenses
must be paid by the state committee.
We must secure control of the next Leg
islature in order to redeem our pledges
to the people.
In order that this letter may not fall
into the hands of the enemy, please write
your reply on the back of this sheet and
return same to me-"
