LlFE's USES.

Man looks into the darkness through his teara,
And life seems but tangled skein;
Re looks Adown the dreary path Of years,
Al blinded by this fearful rain.
This problem Of existence seems
Too much for him TO understand
And so be trembles In the dark,
But touches Gods right hand.
BE feels the hand that lifts him higher,
At last he sees the light;
He hears voice that says; Aspire,
And thou shalt know the right"
Oh human soul In darkness bound,
Thy chain shall drop away,
And Heaven shall prove Its wendrous SOUND
When sins Of earth decay;
And you shall grow to know that life
Was shaped by good and III,
And that the soul climbed to the Light
BY climbing up LIES hill.
So trusting, toll, and toiling, trust;
Cling to our Fathers hand,
And from the weakness Of the dust
You'll reach the better land.

LIGHT ON LIGHTNING.

Again has the United States weather
bureau pulled itself together, strobe into
public view, cracked another popular
fallacy on the snoot and retired.
4 According to its last report lightning
Kills but 200 people annually. This in
cludes all kinds-forked, jagged, sheet,
splintered, bifurcated and V shaped.
This news will crush a great many
people. For years millions of in;elli-
gent men and women have watched
thunder storms approaching with their
knees cracking together with noise
like skeleton having fit on a Tin roof.
As local poet says when the lurid
liquid flashed its livid lash athwart the
Empyrean," these same people Have
crawled under the furniture and tried to
conceal themselves in the nap of an
ancient Brussels carpet.
Nothing will pull the coupling pin:
out of a mans back bone, and make il
wobble like q dish rag, so quick as an
adult streak OF suffering lightning.
There are certain literary cusses who
will tell you of the grandeur of thun-
der storm. They will go on and speak
of how the lightning flares in the Empv-
rean, and the Empyrean, with low CRY
of acute pain. sneaks back into its mole.
But when the lightning GENES thi.
same literary cuss lays his life insurance
policy out on the bureau where his wife
can find il and pulls feather bed or

top of him, end shivers his false teeth
out until the storm has passed.
When it is over he expects to run up
the blinds, look ont the front window
and find the lawn covered with dead
and dying. And, time and again, when
he has looked out the window after the
clouds have rolled by he has been aston
ished and panied at the abrupt and pro-
nounced manner in which the dead and
dying are not there.
If your heart is irresponsible and
liable to miscue in periods of great ex-
cltement, it is a good thing that you
have never had an experience with a
dose of lightning. II you had you
would have been laid out in the darkened
parlor with your hands crossed on your
breast and the great, throbbing world
would be going on without you.
But the weather bureau has exploded
all this. If out of sixty-dve millions
only two hundred are killed by light
ming yearly, what is the use of getting
scared? So another ancient privilege
has been torn from our grasp. We will
have to drop the right to get scared at a
thunder storm. With the ratio of sixty
five millions to two hundred stored away
in our brain, we will be able to bare our
heads, walk out in the midst of the
fiercest storm, and let the harmless and
playful lightning toy with our whiskers
and trickle down our ears.

MORRILL, AND HIS PLATFORM.

If the Republicans put female suffrage
in the platform this state will not only
be run for two years more by Clemens,
Artz, Doster, ct al, but Granny PETER
will be reinforced by a genuine Pop
colleague in the United States senate
from Kansas. The women of Kansas are
not for female suffrage. They would
vote it down two to one, if iG were but
left entirely to them. AS for Susan An
thony, and Gait, and Cougar, they don't
live in Kansas, and their own states will
have nothing to do with their futter-
budget craze.
A plain, sensible, business-like plat
form. sound In Republican doctrine, but
free from hobbies and isms, will COM
mand the respect and confidence and
catch the votes of thousands of men in
this state who have heretofore voted the
Democratic ticket-men who are dis
gusted with Cleveland's goldbug lean
ings, and who have no use for Pop
Fusion. Morrill,, who will be the nomi-
nee for governor, is solid and success
full man, and withal clean in every re.
spect. Ii put on a simple Republican
platform of bimetallism and demand
for the restoration of the states financial
and political credit, the conservative
men of the state will naturally incline to
him. His talent for business is but an
assurance that he will make a level
headed executive. Besides, he has
abundantly demonstrated his fitness and
trus.worthiness in public life.

THE WIND AND WHIRLWIND.

This new and unusual disposition, no
ticed of late, TO destroy property because
it is property is startling to the average
American. 1t is essentially anarchistic.
1t is the spirit of ruin, and governors of
two states have shown a sympathy with
it. 1t means not only the destruction of
government, but desire for impossible
government.
When intelligent American laborers
60 on ga strike" they don't set about the
destruction of the shops and machines
upon which they have depended for en-
ployment In every instance reported,
such acts have been those of an ignorant
population, who do not even understand
a sentence of English. 1t is such class
that dishonors honest labor. The gen.
eral public are in sympathy with
the striking miners, regretting the
existence of condition which seems to
force strikes, and at the same time one
which renders the employers, in many
instances, at least, powerless to meet
what appears to be only reasonable de-
mands. Especially have the miners of
the country the sympathy of the people,
because of the dangers and hardships Of
the work. But the time is near when
the wantonly destructive hands of these
vicious and ignorant foreigners must be
stayed. Altgeld virtually gave orders
to his militia not to protect private prop
erty. Property pays taxes for protec-
ton and next to life and liberty, in this
country. is to be defended against rapine
and destruction. While the general
public probably are the greatest sufferers
from strikes they will only simply
demonstrate so long as life and property
remain invlolate. but will not brook
the destruction of either. The Poles,
Hungarians, Russian peasants and
Dagos seem to be unrestrained in their
notions of liberty ON reaching this
country, but they must be taught that
liberty is in no sense license. Waite
and Altgeld are sowing to the wind and
the whirlwind which they will reap
may grind to powder the ignorant and
vicious elements which they have been
encouraging.

REED Is RIGHT.

In an interview in the Fortnishtly Re-
riew Tom Reed declares that silver and
the tariff should be treated as one issue.
SIT is evidently important &c the debtor
nations, on which list we stand first" he
Says, ito raise the price of silver and
thereby reduce the bounty on exports
which Asia now enjoys. This can be
hone best by agreement with other ma
lions favorable to silver, and by such a
kcale of high tariffs against those ma
tions which reject monetary agree
ment, as will insure us favorable hal.
hnce of trade. In short higher nrice
for silver by reducing Asiatic exports to
Europe will increase ours; add to this a
high tariff and we can keep our gold at
home, or, at least, if sold it will quickly
come back again"
England controls the gold marke. of
the world, and the rapid appreciation of
gold induced that nation to demonetiza
silver in India, hence her advantage in
the depreciation of all other values.
With silver on an equitable footing with
gold and America would control the
metallic money Of the world, or at ieas,
be in an independent position in which
the calamities and monetary stringeu-
cies of other countries would leave her
unaffected. Americas opportunities
are within herself. In protecting her
products her prosperity is preserved.

noon POLITICAL SENSE.

The Republican party must carry the
next legislature or submit to the dis
grace of another Populist senator Tor
six wears. 1t is the duty Of the state
convention to strengthen the party
where it needs strength and where 1t
will do the most good. The two leading
pIaces on the state ticket are governor
and congressman-at-large. 1t now seems
AN absolute certainty that the nominee
for governor will be from the eastern
border of Kansas. In that event COM
mon Justice and common sense demand
the nomination of congressman-a.'iarge
from the central part Of Kansas. 10
take hotk nominees from the Missouri
line would be political folly.
The number of representatives In the
state legislature to be elected next No
yember is 125, divided as follows: In
the First district, 10: Second district, IL;
Third district, -; Fourth district, 10;
Fifth district, 10; Sixth district, y;
Seventh district, 80.
BIue lives in the Second district;
Douglass in the Seventh district. Looked
at with a view of carrying the leglsla-
ture. there is three times the necessity
for strengthening the party In the Sev-
enth district that there is to strengthen
il in the Second district. And when II
comes to the popular vote, there are
nearly one hundred thousand more peo-
ME in this district than in the Second
district. These facts all point to the
wisdom of nominating George l.. Doug
lass for congressman-at-iarge; and up to
the present time everything indicates
the convention next week will take this
view of the case.

PATRIOTISM. PRESERVATION AND
PROTECTION

Following the demand of the Metho-
dist preachers at Topeka that a prohibi-
ton plank should be put into the Repub-
lican platform, comes the Moline editor
with the claim that the time has come
when spiritualism be accorded recogni-
tior as being religion worthy the same
respect that is claimed by orthodoxy.
Thus encouraged the A. P. A. of Kansas
City also want an endorsement. What
with these SO called progressive O. poll
tics, and the addition Of woman suff-
rage plank, if the opposition are not
utterly paralyzed they would at least be
made very tired. But in the mean time
it might be well to suggest that it is
about time the Republican party leaders
OF. Kansas had come to realize that the
National Republican party is the liberal
party of the country as truly and in the
same sense that the Democratic party is
che conservative party; that the Repub-
lican party is not party of isms or
extremes. While Kansas Republicans
may be great deal smarter and more
progressive than the Republicans of all
the other states-a fact at least recognized
by us if not universally-still, owing to
her comparative youth and size, and
the fact that because of our isms
strangers and aliens have come to rule
bver us, it might prove the part of wis
dom to keep ourselves within the lines
and tenets laid down in the national
Republican platform, at least until we
ihall have regained the lost ground.
The prohibition cranks of Kansas are
In the ST. John Third Party from whence
they cannot be coaxed; the social an
srchists, revolutionists and largely the
woman suffragists are in the Populist
party, together with the other irrecon-
Eilables, but great majority Of tie
people of the state are liberal Republi-
rans-no less nor no more liberal than
the national Republican platform.
Any departure from the national Re.
publican platform, we care not whether
in the direction of church or suffrage or
what not, means loss of from thirty
10 forty thousand Republican votes to
The party.
The Third Party Prohibition is party
Of single ism; the Populist party is one
of many isms, some of which are dan
gerous; but the National Republican
party is one of well-defined and long
tested principles, and if liberal, yet of
progressive ideas, for liberty and equality
for all, for the protection of America
and every material interest of the people.
The Republican party is the patriotic
party of the country, the party no less
of preservation than of protection and
patriotism, and the leaders in isms
shonld not be again permitted to defeat
ii in Kansas.
