Hays city CKanl Sentinel, A Goodland
school class was asked to suggest topics for
discussion. One smart boy presented this:
RESOLVED. That a preacher can eat more
chicken than a coyote"
81. Paul Globe: The Me hudist ministers OF
chicago have again entered n protest against
the publication Of Sunday papers. the greater
part OF the work ON which is done Saturday.
They do not object, however, to the reporters
and printers working hard Sunday reporting
and setting IN their sermons for the Monday
papers.
Chicago Times: Only one word to our
friends the Methodist ministers and all other
ministers: The way to cripple the influence
OF the Sunday newspaper as Il rival to the
sunday sermon is to make the sermon SO
nlnch better, more attractive. instructive.
entertaining, convincing. eloquent than the
newspaper that the laymen Will choose the
sermon Of his own free will. But interdic-
ton OF the newspaper viii inevitably fall
Hat in this day and generation.
New York Sun: why did the Kansas
Methodists pass, at their last conference.
resolutions asking the faculties of Methodist
colleges to abolish foot bah at those insti-
buttons? Foot ball is a game to bring out
the good. old fashioned militant Methodism
that treats the devil as a foot ball. Some
of the Methodists play 1t with the precision
and bang Of q park of artillery: the young
Methodist kickers at the Wesleyan uni
verslty Of Middletown, for instance. Per
haps II the Kansas colleges, methodist and
non-Methodist, had more hours of required
foot ball there wouldn't be so much ~prlgging
OF essays and speeches as there is In their
literary and oratorical contests now. II
seems to be the rule in these contests that
at least one of the contestants is caught
palming off somebody else's composition as
his own. Better a ton of broken bones
than a pennyweight of stealing.
New York independent: The suit for
breach of promise brought In Washington
against the most distinguished member of
congress from Kentucky opens to the whole
country a very sad chapter in the life of
one who has been a great favorite both in
political and ecclesiastical life. Colonel
Breckenridge. it seems, does not deny his
long continued criminal relations with the
prosecutrix, only that he had ever promised
to marry her, and he seems to see no great
shame in his sin, and he expects that all
this exposure will not interfere at all with
his triumphant reelection. He may be
right in his anticipation, but we cannot do
less than express our establishment and
pain, and our hope that his sin will not be
ignored or condoned by the representatives
of the church Of which he has been such a
shining light. And we must also express
our detestation of the excuses made in his
behalf by his personal friends. one of them
a clergyman of fame. Such excuses would
undermine the whole structure of social
by teaching that a man has no
power of self-restraint.

power OF penetration and fearful destruc-

next Novembef election. II a majority Of
the qualified voksrs Of any county. city.
ward or township vote in favor Of prohibit.
tion all persotts engnged in the sale OF in
toNicating liquors as a beverage within such
county, city, whrI or township must discon-
tinue the business within forty days after
the date % the g%iection. Every dealer who
fails to discontinue the sale within the time
p1ovided shall BE- deemed guilty OF a mis-
demeanor. and may, upon conviction, be
fined IN any suuf bot exceeding $500 nor less
than 800, and be imprisoned not more than
sixty days nor l,Ss than five days. In effect
this measure, as interpreted by the Clevc-
land Leader, which advocates II, gives the
people of a ward, township. city or county
independently the right to say whether tho
sale of liquors as a beverage shall be pro-
hibited in the smaller or larger territory in
which they live, thus providing local option
in the broadcast sense. An objection to the
measure not without force is that if
half the wards in a city or half the
townships in a county should vote against
prohibition and a majority for It should be
cast In the city or county as a whole, and
prohibition were enforced all over the city or
county, the wishes OF a majority Of the
voters of those wards and townships which
voted against it would be disregarded
whereas. If the majority in q ward or town
ship is for prohibition and the majority in
the city or county against 1t. prohibition will
nevertheless be enforced in those wards and
townships, thus giving the temperance peo-
pie a double advantage.
Although it is urged that there is no poll
tics in this proposition. its tendency, if
adopted, will very likely be to revive the
liquor question as an issue between parties,
and in view OF this possibility it would per
haps be wiser to let matters continue az
they are until there shall be a revision of
the constitution of the state that will allow
a system of high license and local option,
which experience has shown to be the only
practicable way for properly regulating the
liquor traffic. With Massachusetts proposing
to try the Norwegian or Gothenburg system,
Iowa the 'mulct" plan, and Ohio a novel
local option scheme, it Is seen that the liquor |
question still has vitality.

THE CORRECT THING FOR MEN.

The law is inexorable with regard to cuffs.
Wear only links.
The favorite color for spring is gray in
its manifold mixtures and combinations.
Where the change is 1t Invariably tends to
brown.
The most stylish boutonnlere In the
category this spring and the one which the
swells of clubdom, whose pace Is the law
of the land, viii almost to a man adopt is
the Carnation.
Plain white shirt fronts are the rule, and
one to which there are no excep ions. Under
no circumstances will good dressers wear
embroidered bosoms. Two eyelets for studs
are better form than three.
The ultimathule of handstlcks is a German
ash, with a natural crook which comes with
in an inch and a half of forming a complete
circle. 1t is larger in diameter than the
winter sticks, and the bark is smoother.
The latest agony in street gloves Is mouse
colored. undressed kid. either self-stitcEed
or with small ridges of black silk en-
broidery. The former style is preferable.
The glove should close with two buttons,
and should not 1T too tightly.
The new soft hat is not dented In the
crown, after the tourist style, but is worn
straight with a wide crease al the top. In
both derbys and soft hats black is the favor
lite color for early spring, but three weeks
from now gold-brOWn, gray, nutmeg and pearl
will be fashionable,
There is no law against wearing a derby
hat. provided il is of the prescribed sort.
but II your figure will permit 1t follow good
semi formal occasions. Then you will DO
right in the swim. and your social lmpor-
lance and manly beauty Will be enhanced a

The New York Board Of Trade and Trans
portation is joining vigorously in the agita-
tion for the enactment by the Legislature Of
that state of a bill to regulate the telephone
charges within its jurisdiction. The measure
recommended by the board makes the charges
vary with the population of the community
in which the telephone system is operated,
the maximum being s7S per year in cities of
over 100000 and S27 per year in cities of
less than 5000. The rates now in force
in New York City run as high as $24O per
year. OF course the telephone companies
will oppose this legislation. but the pros
poets are not bad for squeezing some OF the
monopoly element out of the earnings of
these great corporations.

"Stop My Paper!'

'f'>> ~ 'Dfh
Every man has a right to take a paper or
at all. But at the same time there is a GER
tain responsibility attaching to all actions,
even to so trivial a one as stopping a paper
because the editor saws something one
doesn't agree with. There is COMPLAINT
that newspaper editors lack fearlessness
and honesty. that newspapers are too gem
orally mere partisan organs that disregard
the claims of truth and justice when polit-
ical interests are at stake. There is too
much truth In the charge; but let us ask
how it is possible for q fearless, honest,
outspoken journal to live if every man is to
cry stop my paper" whenever he reads
views? The men who insist that the paper
they read shall never say anything CON
trary to their views are the ones who are
in large measure responsible for the craven
cowardliness and the weathercock propen-
sites of modern journalism. In a commun-
ity composed entirely of these 'stop-my-
paper people true Independent journalism
would be an impossibility. When you are
convinced that a paper is dishonest and de-
ceitful, stop it. When convinced that 1t is
unclean, stop 1t. When 1t lacks enter
prise and fails to give you the news,
stop II. When some other paper gives
you more of value, stop 1t. But don't
stop a paper that you believe to be honest,
because its editor has written his own sin
cere views instead of yours or somebody
else's; for II you do, you are putting a pre-
MUM on insinCere journalism and serving
notice on an editor that the way 20 sue
coed Is to write what he thinks will best
please his readers instead of what he hon
estly believes to be the truth.

The Humillating Senate.

EVERY honest democrat in the land must
reel inundated and sick at heart over the
spectacle of a democratic senate abandon
ing, itself to a wild protectionist orgie,
without a thought of broken pledge and
diShonored platform. No voice is raised in
all that din of conflicting interests To de.
mand a hearing for the party's promises.
The affair lacks even the dignity of a con-
Tariff reform is no longer in the fight.
1t has been betrayed by it's friends and
thrown. to the dogs, and the victorious
protectiontst pack is snarling and swapping
over the choicest bits of the spoil. Except
3sgthe betrayal of a=.trust makes it more
dlsSracefui: the scene might nave been
taken BODILY from Il republican caucus of
the Fifty-iirSt congress, auditing the
claims of the robber barons for campaign

The Chicago Herald objects in vigorous
language to the slovenly appearance of
everybody who infests the capitol at Wash
ington, from congressman down to door
keepers, messengers and pages. 1t insists
that all of the employees of tho United States
are or ought to be paid sufficient salaries
to enable them to put themselves at least in
a presentabIe appearance when performing
their official duties. If 1t is undemocratic
to compel them to wear uniforms it is
equally undemocratlc to permit them to wear
filthy rags. These structures. however, are
not to be confined to employees of the federal
government. They apply. with perhaps
greater force. to both state and municipal

The republicans in the Iowa legislature
must pull themselves together or the party
VIII lose some of the ground gained at the
last election. The republicans pledged
themselves last year. in case they carried
the legislature. to pass a law giving to
localities where prohibition cannot be Ell
forced such methods of controlling and
regulating the liquor traffic as will best
serve the cause of temperance and moral
ity." The people understood by this high
license and local option. which is what the
river counties where prohibition cannot be
enforced want. Heavy republican gains
in those counties We're due in part To these
pledges. But neither the senate or the
house has been able TO pass Il bill. While
the republicans are largely in the majority
in each, a minority of them will vote for no
bill, and the democrats, not wishing the
liquor question to be taken out of politics,
refuse to vote for any republican measure.
1t would be a bad mistake for the republic
cans to allow the legislature to adjourn
with nothing done. 1t will not do for them
to break the pledge they made last year.
They will suffer worse than If they had
made none. Even If the failure to legas-
late on this subject is due I'm part to the
policy of the democrats, who will
vote for no license measure unless ii be Il
poor one of their own making, voters will
be sure to say, The republican party broke
it's pledge and we cannot trust 1t again"
The republican legislators must come to an
agreement and pass a law.
