With It the Cowboy Can Hit the Mark

art of using the lasso.' said Louis Ed
wards Of Santa Fee II used to be in
the ranching line myself, and once
thought I could throw a rope as
straight as any man living. But that
was before mixed to any extent with
the Mexicans. As good as the Ameri-
can cowboys are they can hold a cam
die to a greaser when it comes to the
ropin1 business. They can do things
with hemp that no other mortals can
ever hope to accomplish AS the Aus
tralian stands out pre- eminently in
throwing the boomerang, SO does the
ignorant son of the land of God and
liberty exceed all other men in this
one accomplishments
"a Mexican will chase a steer at
full speed and while he guides his
broncho with one hand whirl his rope
and 1t isn't once in thousand times
that the moose will fail to catch just
where the rider meant A favorite
trick with them is to stick a lot of
long handled knives in the ground
close together within the limits of
narrow circle and bet with outsiders
that they can ride past at race horse

A CIVIC federation is an association or
citizens formed to look after the enforce
ment Of the laws; not to enforce them
themselves. but to urge upon the officers
of the law the necessity of performing
their duties and to see that they are re-
moved if they do not perform them. The
mem ers of a civic federation must not
run for any Office for this would intro
duce political ambitions and dissension
in the organization. The model civic
federation consists only Of citizens who
want to see their city well governed
without regard to politics Would this
be a good thing in Topeka?

IF the business affairs Of Topeka were

stock company is formed. Such a com
pany does not elect a president because
he = a Democrat, Repu blican or Popu-
list, but because he has good administra-
tive ability, is economical and honest

CHANCE 70 Make YOTEs.

The EVENING JOURNAL seems to have
been constituted s. NJ SCOTS organ in
urging 3 joint debate between Scott and
Curtis. Nobody but tile Journal and
course because he can't get an audience
in any other way. But there is no good
reason why Curtis should share his big
audiences with his adversary Iopeka
Capital.
What nonsense. As to audiences, Mr..
Curtis certainly wants TO address him
self to Populists, doesn't he? He does
not need to make speeches to the Repub-
Leans He has their votes secure
enough. His business is to make votes
among Populists. The Populists viii
not go to his meetings. His only chance
at them will be a Joint debate with Scott
The Populists will come to hear Scott
and Curtis can point out the shortcom-
ings of the Populist administration in
way that will command their attention.
As it Is now, many Populists won't read
anything but Populiat newspapers and
listen to anybody but Populist speakers.
They don't know the facts BY joint
debate they can be made to listen to
them as in no other way.
Mr.. Curtis doesn't speak to all the big
audiences. Two thousand people lis
tened to S. NJ. Scott at the City park Sat
urday afternoon, and thousand or more
at Hamilton hall in the evening. Petit
tions are in circulation in this county and
in other counties, signed by Republi-
cans, asking for the debate. Certainly
their wishes are entitled to considera
ton.
OF course II the committee is deter
mined not to take advantage of a joint
debate to make votes that is their mis-
take and they will have to be RESPONSE
