eloquent and patriotic address; to Rev.

Where Ara We At?

In an able editorial under the above
heading the Alma Signal, an able DEM
ocratic paper, says some good things
concerning the financial situation in
Kansas. OfKansas and her securities,
her resources, and the metal of the
people, the Signal says:
"Our securities are just as good as
at any time in the past but we can't
pay all our debts at once.
LET every depositor draw on bank
without notice and suspension must
follow. Nearly every loan agent and
banking concern in the east said to the
farmers of Kansas: You must pay
your debt principal and interest or the
pound of flesh must be forth coming.
"Shylock insists on his dues and the
courts aid him in enforcing his de-
mands. Our state has been drained
of every sulplus dollar and one of the
best indications that Kansas is a
country of unlimited resources Is the
fact that the state is not in condi-
tiOn of bankruptcy.
''But the lesson is good one to
Kansas. Our state has shown to the
world that no ordinary strain on the
purses of our people will materially
affect our standing in the financial
world.
"Our ability to meet the demands on
our people has created an impression
that is in every way to our credit and
that is invaluable to us In the future.
"Our people have parted with their
money but in doing this they have
rid themselves of an Indebtedness
that has been a menace-threateni
to take from us the homes of our citi-
zens.
I'VE have more reason to rejoice
and be glad than we have to complain
that the creditors have demanded
their own. We now know where we
stand and we rejoice that our position
is not that of people hopelessly in
debt to set of merciless usurers.''

and the table was made from planks
out of the female suffrage platform.
And thereupon they pledged themselves
with their mouths full of the fat of
the land of Beaver, to stand on that
platform with both feet and show the
straight democrats and anti-prohi-
publicans that they are not in IT. Then
the mossback commanded his people
to depart to their respective homes.
And behold. the sun rose the next
morning still in the east, and shown
on the wicked democrats just the same.

THE Washington dispatceS assure us
that the republicans of the House are
''still kicking" against the enforce
ment of the salary docking statnte.
Let them kick. They have only them
selves to thank for the revival of that
law. They wasted weeks in filibuster-
ing against any legislation whatever
unless the majority furnised a quorum,
and the enforcement of the regulation
which compells them to attend Congress
or forfeit their pay is due to their own
'smartness." 1t is frequently the case
that very smart people are not as smart
as they think.-Louisville Courier
Journal.

E. E. FRIzELL, who attended the
Dodge City Irrigation Convention last
Saturday speaks very highly of the
gathering. Four hundred farmers
were present and listened to the ad-
dresses of learned men On subjects
pertaining to irrigation. The conven-
ton ADVOCATED the idea of asking an
appropriation to aid in establishing
experimental stations in the Arkansas
valley; each station to be placed in
charge of practical operator so as to
obtain the best possible results. Ev-
erybody was enthusiastic and the
opinion prevailed that irrigation will
be the savior of western Kansas =

THE populist state convention meets
at Topeka next Tuesday. The eastern
counties, situated near to Topeka, will
be we'll represented; but the coyote
counties-the western two thirds of the
state in fact-will not be so fully repre-
sented, from the fact that railroad fare
costs money, and money is not hanging
around on bushes-not this year. The
ticket of two years ago will be re nomi-
mated almost in its entirety, and some
of the populists will argue that the
democrats will do as they did two years
ago, gulp down the whole dose. This,
however, the democrats will not do by
long shot; not any sooner than they
will swallow the ticket the republicans
were putting up in Topeka yesterday.
The democrats of Kansas will name
their standard bearers for 1894 on the
Sd day of next month. They will place
those candidates on platform contain
ing free coinage of silver, freight reduc-
ton, anti-female suffrage and anti
crankism of any kind, planks. Such a
platform will be broad and patriotic,
straightforward and unequivocal, and
all citizens who love our state and its
prosperity, who honor and revere wo-
man in her sphere, who despise shams
and pretense and admire love of home
and country can stand upon though the
heavens fall and either the pops or the
reps capture the spoils of Office or Join
Coxey's army and march to Washing
ton to try and embarrass democratic
administration.

IN 1867 a proposed amendment to

WOMEN suffragists," says the To-

best to have something on earth be-
sides men. -Chanute Blade.
