Populist State Convention.

The populist state convention open
ed at Topeka Tuesday. at the hour
we go to press there is no news here
that any nominations are yet made.
1t is conceded that the old officers, with
the exception of Daniels for Lient, Gov.
aDd Osborne for Sec. of State, will be
fenominated.
The suffragists capture the tempo
rary organization and got majority of
the committee on resolutions, Tuesday
evening, and Wednesday morning the
committee reported a suffrage plank.
Wednesday forenoon was given to
discussion of the resolutions, and at
p. m. no action had been taken. The
women were being heard, and there
strong chances that suffrage plank
would be adopted.

Beatty Organs and Pianos.

Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, OF Wash
lngton, New Jersey, the great Organ
and Piano manufacturer, is building
and shipping more organs and pianos
than ever. In 1870 Mr.. Beatty left
home penniless pillow boy. and by his
indo mitable will he has worked his
way up so as to sell, SO far, nearly
100, 900 of Beatty's pianos and organs
since 1870. Nothing seems to dis
hearten him; obstacles LAID in his way
that would have wrecked any ordinary
man forever, he turns to an advertise
ment and comes out of it brighter than
ever. His instruments, as is well
known, are very popular and are to be
found in all parts of the world. We
are informed that during the next ten
years he intends to sell 100000 more
of his make; that means business of
$50, 900 900, if we average them at
500. 90 each. It is already the larSest
business of toe kind in existence 1t

Prohibition State Convention.

The Kansas prohibiIionists met in
state convention at Emporia on the
18th. A large convention is reported
and many enthusiastic speeches were
made. The claim is made that. a pro-
hibition state ticket will poll between
10000 and $4,000 votes, most of which
will come from the republicans on &C
count of that party's cowardice in re-
fusing to take a position on the suffrage
and prohibition questions. Fighting
Parson Buckner," of Baldwin City,
who has been rampant republican,
and who is power in Methodist min
isterial circles, has renowned republi-
canism and joined the prohibitionists
as have many other ministers through
out the state,
Hon. L. o. Pickering of Olathe, was
nominated for governor. The balance
of the ticket we have been unable to
learn.

ABOUT four weeks ago gentleman
drove through the eastern end of Ford
county in carriage, drawn by two
horses. He stopped at every pros
porous looking farm house and brought
from the carriage a jug of old silk
velvet In their mother tongue he
conversed to the weil-to- do Germans
of the purity of his liquors and let them
drink sample of the fine old whiskey,
which went down so smoothly that the
whole world must have put on rosy
glow and the seductive purveyor of
consolation oil seemed like an angel
of light. Many leading citizens bit
like bass and ordered more of the same
kind, paying from six to twenty dollars
case in advance. The man with the
little brown jug" has never been
heard from since. He'll never come

WHY is it that SO many people send
away for goods which they could get
just as cheap. and of as good quality,
of our home merchants? Every man,
woman and child in Barton county
should resolve to buy everything they
possibly could from the merchants in
our own county. 1t is not estimating
too highly to say that about 5000 a
month goes out of Barton county fol
goods that could just as well be bought
at home; giving our home merchants
the benefit of the profit, and keeping
just that much more money in cir
culation here where it is so much
needed. We know whereof we speak,
for much of the goods come through
the mail.

THE voters of Barton county will
not support party that is afraid TO
come out squarely and announce its
position upon such important questions
as silver coinage, railroad transporta-
ton and freight rates, prohibition and
female suffrage. The republicans have
lodged all these questions; the popu-
lists some of them; and the democrats
are the only ones who will come out
squarely, openly, and fearlessly and
announce their position on all these
questions.

MISS ANNA SHAW says she as an
equal suffragist has more respect for
the Germans of Topeka who came out
fiat footed against woman suffrage
than for the cowardly republican party
of Kansas. There are good many
people in Kansas who have more re-
spect for the Germans than for either
the republican party or the woman
suffragist.

A good story is told on one of Hois-

keepers. A party went over from
Great Bend, and going into the alleged

ranch. The proprietor got scared and
went to work breaking bottles and
pouring out his ''stuff" so that the
sheriff would find nothing of the pro-

WHILE it is a well known fact that
nine-tenths of the voters of Kansas
are in favor of the free coinage of sill
yer, the republican party in state con-
vention did not dare to adopt a resolu-
ton in favor of it, for fear of getting
out of line with the controlling wing OF
the party, the eastern bankers. We
should be sadly disappointed If the
democratic state convention should
show the anne cowardice.

In irving to let Dave Heizer dowr

IN trying to let Dave Heller down
easy Bro. Townsley of the Tribune ex-
plains that his, Heizer's, nomination
for lieutenant governor was defeated
by the ''fixers;" that Dave was the
logical candidate and had the majority
of the delegation, but that the pesky
''fxers"- varmints SO common
to republican conventions-knoc
out the Barton county boy. Great
pains was taken to show how this was
done; and then, with the usual incon-
sistency of the old fellow he says these
''fxers failed to accomplish what they
were after.'' Ratsl The fixefs in
that convention did what they gener-
ally do, they run the convention to
suit themselves. They nominated a
gold bug banker for governor and
straddled all over the financial Ques-
ton; they refused to stand by their
detested prohibitory law but nomi-
mated TrOutman-the head of the pro-
hibition league-for lieutenant COVER
nor; they pledged their party to female
suffrage in the last legislature but re-
fused to consider even the requests of
the suffragists; they talked taffy to
the Kansas farmer and laborer but
made up their ticket almost entirely
of bankers. 0, the fxers were all
right-they were in it from start to
finish, and Dave Heller knows it too.

are wrong, everything that exists under

A MAN with the meagre flor New
York; fortune of $50, 900 died in that
city few days ago. Two sons and a
daughter were present at his bedside.
Even as the coldness of death was be-
ginning to settle upon the old man,
the two sons began to dispute and then
to fight over their respective shares in
his estate. The old man with his last
breath rose up with deprecating mo-
ton of his hand and fell backward
dead. The west is wild and woody, but
nothing in the annals of Kansas
death-b bed scenes ever equalled that for
brutal disrespect of time and place and
lack of filial love.-Oskaloosa Times.
