TEE editor Of the Dispateh apolo


TEE editor Of the Dispatch apollo
gizes for his self-styled weak article
on the tax matter, on the ground that
he is stranger in this county. Not
withstanding this fact, of being a
stranger he essays to run the republi-
can machine both in the city and
county, and would read many of the
strong and faithful republicans out
of the party, because they object to
partisan politics in the administration
of city affairs. If he had any desire
to be fair in the matter he wonld not
have deliberately stated what every
body knows to be false-that the non
partisan caucus was called by pop
ulists. The call was issued by repub-
ilcans who are dissatisfied with the
4'rlng'' tickets, not on personal
grounds, but because of the manner
ia which some of the city affairs have
been conducted, and further, on &C.
count of the methods of the caucus
held by the republican club. 1t is
also an unfair as we'll as an untrue
statement which says that such men
as Charles Tracey, A. W, Robertson,
John Hahnenkratt, John Gebhart, r.
f. Stinson, G. w. Cole and many
other staunch republicans only desire
to down the republican party. Pop
ulists and democrats had nothing to
do with the call, whatever, and partl-
cipated only because the sall was for
non-partisan caucus.

Mrs. Child Speaks.

Mrs. Rachel L. Child, of Iowa, adj
dressed a large audiance at Gebharts
hall last evening, on the subject Of
equal suffrage
The meeting was called to order by
Mrs. Royce, the president of the cam
paign club, and after an appropriate
song by j. Russell Lowe and Earl
and Carl Wood, Mrs Strong lead in
prayer,
The speaker was then introduced in
a neat and appropriate speech by the
president.
Mrs. Child began by reviewing the
history of liberty from the time Of the
ancient Greek democracy and Roman
republic down through the Magma
Charta era and the gradual growth
of English and American liberty up
to the present time. "While man had
been claiming and even fighting for
all this liberty for himself, woman's
rights and freedom, said the speaker,
we're never thought of. But through
out the ages she had been granted
no other liberty than that secured in
directly through the freedom of the
men" The lecture on the whole was
a very able presentation of the ques4
ton. Many objections to equal suff-
rage we're taken up and answered.
A collection was taken to aid in the
cause and many more names were
added to the campaign club.

OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER.
THURSDAY, MARCH 20, 1894.

The fact that our esteemed con
temporary, the Dispatch, devotes fouI
or FIVE columns to this paper and thu
little item of news respecting the
tax levy in this county, is only an in
dication of how anxious are some Of
the old party hacks who hope to gel
another stall at the public crib, lest
the truth should become known,
After the approved methods of repub-
lican partisanism, when our friends
find questions they dare not answer
they resort to abuse of persons, in
stead of discussing the question on
ITS merits under ordinary circum-
stances we should not hesitate to call
any person by his right name-a
cowardly falsIier-who would say
the HERALD was guilty of passing off
as editorial, any matter contributed
by other parties than Its editors, but
the fact OF the DiSpatcbS acknowldg-
ed painful necessity Of so passing off
the effusions of an ex-county officer,
"an old veteran whom every body
knows to be reliable in figures" leads
us to believe that the statement was
made more to hide the Dispatch
editors own short comings, than with
any malicious intent toward this
paper, therefore we pass it by with
out further notice. But the question
remains unanswered; with all his
good help the Dispatch man has care,
fully steered clear of the ques-
ton, which is "Does any one believe
the populists have injured the credit
of this county? The facts still stand
that the county taxes have been re-
duced two thirds; the expenses have
been fully met; the county has saved
what formerly went to spectators;
and the only sin Of the populists is
that they have falleo to levy a high
tax to collect a large surplus in the
treasury over and above what is nee,
essary for all expenses on the theory
that unnecessary Is Unjust taxation.

S. B. Armour on the Non-partisan
Movement.

The following letter from s. B.
Armour, one of Kansas clty's most
prominent business men, voices the
sentiment of many of the best people
not only in Kansas City but all over
our own state. There is springing
up all through the great enterprising
West the inclination to administer af-
fairs from Q non-partisan standpoint,
and thus improve upon the debt-rld-
den towns in the effete east. The
pernicious influence of Tammany and
the political power that organization
welded, has done not a little to
arouse this feeling. To that extent
which partisan politics enters into the
government of cities and towns, is the
business advantages crippled. This
letter was sent to the Committee of
Seventy, who were at the head of the
non-partisan movement IN Kansas
City, just before Mr.. Armour started
for California:
KANSAS Cry, Mo, March Is, '94.-
To the chairman of the Committee on
Ways and Means of Committee of
Seventy organized for Independent
Movement: DEAR SIR-I regret that
| am compelled to leave the city to.
day to be gone several weeks, and
will therefore be unable to continue
my attendance at the meetings of the
committee of seventy or of the COM
mittee of which you are chairman.
On account of my keen interest in the
citizens movement l am sorry to be
absent from the city from now till
election day.
1t Is high time that we eliminate
politics from our city AFFAIRS. Neither
the platform nor the policies of the
national parties have anything to do
with our muicnipsl government. The
labor mercantile, manufacturing, live
stock, financial and real estate inter-
ests and tax payers, both large and
small, ought to designate and control
the affairs of our city, and not pollti-
clans for revenue only. If we could be
relieved from politics, especially ward
politics, in our municipal government,

In the HERALD of June %, 1893 we

In the HERALD Of June ~, 1893 we
notice the following:
"The Dispatch pats the city officials
on the back for enforcing the prohibit
tory law. Now, as a matter OF fact,
no one has been fined for violating
the prohibitory law lately. The re
cent arrests were made for violating
q city ordinance. Rumor has it, that
the city authoities intend to arrest
the violators occasionally and fine
them as q substitute for license"
To which the Dispatch replied; "The
statement made by the HERALD last
week, in regard to the city authors
ties taxing hop tea vendors, IS one OF
their old fakes, and is clearly under
stood by the public"
How correct the statement of the
HERALD was can now be seen, About
every three months, as the records of
the police Judge will show, these men
have been fined under an ordinance
passed 1889, and while they enforce
the first clause of that ordinance the
second one, which makes it the duty
of the city government to destroy all
"goods," etc. in possession of the per-
son SO fined, is entirely neglected.
Thus is the truth of the HERALD's
statement proven, viz: that their
fines are a substitute for a license.
