The Doodle Ccarges.

Topeka Advocate.
Ever since the Populist administration
came into power republican politicians
and papers have iterated and reiterated
their unfounded charges about its re-
Ceipt of Doodle from Kansas City
gamblers and joints. The Capital of
September IA has rehash of the story
and in fact the republican campaign is
based upon this and and other similar
ISLANDERS.
These charges are not new: they are
merely a reiteration of scandals pub
lished in the Capital during the session
of the state legislature and which
resulted in the appointment of senate
committee to investigate them. That
committee was composed of two Popu-
lists, two republicans and one demo-
crat, and it made a unanimous report
at the close of the investigation. We
clip the following paragraph from that
repert.
1--WE beg further to report as to Governor
Eewelling his private secretary, Fred j.
Close, and Attorney General Little, tnat we
find no evidence showing that they or either
of them received money for any official act
or influence whatever. neither did they OF
either Of them, know OF the use OF any mon
ey TO influence their own action In any
manner whatever, or TO effect legislation, or
the appointment or election Of any officer
whatever"
And this report was signed by L. P
King and A. G. Forney, POpulists; by
S. O. Thatcher and ]. w. Parker, re-
publicans; and by W. P. billiard, demo
crat.

Ne1cS and the Sumner County Star:
"The last issue of the VOICE was
something Judge Naugle ought to be
proud Of. 1t was full of Obscenity
aud filth and is liable to go the way

We presume the Register refers to

Mr.. Naugle, Te may say that he is
not responsible for the profanity in

Anarchy!
In plank four Of the first republican
national platform we find:

In plank four Of the first republican
national platform we find:
The dearest constitutional rights
Of the people of Kansas have been
fraudulently and viOlently taken
from them: their territory has been
invaded by an armed force; spurious
and pretended legislation, judicial
and executive officers have been set
over them, by whose usurped author
ity. sustained by the military power
of the government, tyrannical and un-
constitutional laws have been enacted
and enforced; the rights of the peO-
pie to keep and bear arms have been
infringed.
In those days it meant something
to strike out and organize new
party, and they denounced and de-
manded much as does the Peoples
party Of today. They were hoOted at
by conservatives, and the staid old
self-conadent Whig party treated the
situation much as the arrogant re-
pu0licans Of today do, by declaring
its reverence and unalterable at
tachlnent," and stating that they
had no new principles to Offer-"but
are content TO broadly reSt-where
"ur fathers rested"
They rested and the new party bur-
led them where they rested.
Today the new party demands
something, and states plainly what IL
wants. while the republican party
stands on its dignity and reaflrms
and declares that 1.-THE constant pa
triOtism of the party is in itself a
guarantee" etc.
1t grapples with no old question
and offers nothing newt is content
to rest-and the Peoples party pro-
poses to give it long rest.
The republicans were called "ca'
lamity howlers" and anarchists"
when first they broke loose from the
old ties. Now just suppose the Peo-
piles party had ever mentioned the
right of citizens to keep and bear
arms-dOn't you know that the g. o.
p. would have yelled anarchy from
Cape Cod to the Golden Gate-cer-
tainly.
And what do they say when we de-
nOunce the sending of federal troops
to Chicago?

that not one cent of the $4,000 has

Texas will outshIne herself in
the effort to give the grandest in
augural ball that the sun OF social
brightness ever beamed upon. The
youth and beauty and wealth and
fashion of the state will be there
no less than the hayseeds and the
pumpkin eaters and the pie plead
ers, and they will all meet on the
same plane, for in theory the state
knows no distinctions. 1t will be
day for Charlie to don his spike
tail coat and waltz into the atfec-
tons Of the daughters as he evil
d9ntly did into the confidence of the

be demanded by usage and courte-

should be a remembrance of those
who demand the charities of a
state to keep themselves and their
servants and their little ones from
the privations that come to mis-
fortune.

Every dollar that the state in
vests in surveys and in otherwise
promoting the irrigation work of
Texas, will return to her treasury
four fold as soon as these irrigated
lands are offered in the market and
sold and the returns made to the
comptroller. The increase made
in taxable values the first five years
will pass all present computation
and the tax levy in consequence
will more than meet all the ex-
penses incurred by the state in pro-
noting the enterprise. It would
in fact be paying speculation for
the state to put in the irrigation
works and sell the land, taking
them at their present valuation
There is a pot Of money in irrigat-
ing these lands and securing the
difference between the present quo
tations per acre and the prices that
would then be obtainable. Money
