Twas a Private SNAP.

Membership on the Democratic cen.
trail committee Of this congressional
district in 1892 and 1898 appears to
have been private snap" AT
least the members Of that committee
appear to have so regarded it, and
Judging from the lucrative positions
which they secured for themselves
they know a "snap" when they see
it. The committeeman were not sac
rifcing their health and time for the
mere amusement Of the few Demo-
Gratis scattered around in the counties
OF the Fifth district. Not much.
They saw prizes and emoluments and
they went for them.
The committee met at Clay Center
and the members each selected the
public office most congenial to his
tastes and sailed it down for himself.
After each had his own wants sup
piled the committee graciously con
ceded the few remaining offices to
other members Of the party. These
they decided to parcel out at 50 much
a parcel. Every applicant was re-
quired to pay to the committee
from $25 to 500, in consideration of
the support Of the committee 1t
made no difference il there were q
dozen applicants for the same office,

their undivided support to help the

thought he was the preference of the

In the death Of Judge Thacher
Kansas has lost worthy citizen, one
whose heart was true to the Sunhower
State, who believed in her future,
gloried in her past and had a very
active and honorable part in the his
tory making Of her present. HE
was an honorable man. and his word
was his bond. The one institution
which will most feel the loss his de-
cease has brought about will be the
State University. lie was thoroughly
familiar with its needs and had an
earnest wish to see it advance in use.
fitness and strength Kansas can ill
afford to lose such men as Judge
Thacher.

Western Kansas Lands.

Until within the last few years loan
and investment companies have been
loanlng money on western Kansas
lands. While they were engaged in
that business they criticised ncwspa-
per correspondents severely for stat
ing facts about the exact condition Of
the country. The truth about west
ern Kansas then intericred materially
with their operations and when it
was told the credit Of the country
was being ruined. Now, however,
when IT is impossible to borrow any
more money from eastern people on
farm mortgages these same invest
ment and loan companies are engaged
in purchasing defaultcd securities
and in order to do this 10 an advan-
tage they make statements in their
circulars that correspond very closely
with the statements made by the cor
respondents two years ago when the
facts would more nearly warrant
them Then the loan companies
were negotiating large loans on poor
farms Now they are trying to buy
these same lands, that have been
taken possession of by the mortga-
gees, at nominal prices. One Topeka
has an agent travelling
the east doing this identical
hing and paying for the land he buys
n stock in company which is to
control several thousand acres and
'ut ii into alfalfa, incidentally prom
sing investors u fortune. Owners of |
western Kansas land should remcm-
'cr that that section Of the state is |
'aving its innings now and to 60
low Crops there are all right and
and prices will advance.

It may be very pretty poetry to
appoint Populst as superintendent
of the olathe asylum and his qualiii-
cations may be all right. But all the
same there are hundreds Of other
men whose qualifications are all right
too who have the added advantage Of
being Republicans. Recognition Of
the enemy by means Of giving the
best positions to him is mighty
good way to antagonize your own

Republicans Year.

1t is pleasing in comparison with
the mongrel, shameless combination
that the Demo-Pops have got together
and called ticket to consider the
character Of the Republican nominees.
From top to bottom Of the excellent
ticket nominated at the county con-
vention every candidate is worthy,
honorable, popular and staunch adj
vocate Of the principles Of the party
which is represented. The candi-
dates are not on there because Of
catching few marketable votes, they
are there because they represent the
party faithfully and are opponents Of
its principles.
This is the Republicans year. The
party next year will make clean
sweep from president down to road
overseer and this must be a prepare
ton for it. 1t is the duty Of Repub-
licans to remember this and we be-
lieve they do. The primary vote was
one Of the largest in years while on
the other hand the Demo-Pop combi
nation, notwithstanding that IT al
lowed everybody in three parties and
six counties to vote, was only about
800 votes in the whole county, where
ii used TO be 1000 votes for the Pop
party alone
The Republicans should make it
their business this year to see that
The unholy combination arrayed
against them is defeated root and
branch. This can be done by sup
porting the whole ticket from top to
,ottom=-not emitting one name or
wo but by voting it all. In the past
ew years whenever Pop has slid in
has been by scratched Republican
ickets. There should be none Of
mt kind cast this year in city or
n country. Be sure that you will
ave many Democrats and Populists
'ith you, for there is a growing pro-
ast in both these parties against
lraight barter and sale Of the nomi-
atlons by gang that is going to
zap peclniary profit thereby.
Republicanism was never in better !
lape than now for Il clean, straight |
ctory. II has II model ticket, n :
lited and enthusiastic party and
N already read its title clear to car
ing of the honors.

WASHINGTON, Aug. IA telegram

The New Candidate,

The Manhattan Nationalist, whose
editor knows the gentleman, says Of
A. G. Pattee Of Junction who wants
to run on the Pop ticket for congress
man. For a number Of years he was
a Methodist minister and while serv-
ing as such naturally contracted
some good habits; then he went into
the cattle dehorning business with a
patent dehorner and from that grad
ually drifted down into Populist
politics in Saline county. He is
shrewd and competent and can raise
a crop of whiskers second only to
PETERS. He is far superior to
Gaines, who will be his opponent for
the congressional nomination, Pattee
has an open record with nothing
worse in it than the dehorning
episode. He is a mild-mannered,
soft-voiced gentleman, whom you
would not be afraid to have talk to
your children. Gaines on the other
hand, isa maverick, who appeared
from the wilds of Dickinson
county with his leather lung, his
profane glossary and his vaulting
lie is the distinct type of
the political iawsmith who walked at
the head of the rag-a-mufiin parade in
the early days of Populist idiocy, cry
ne unto the people in loud voices
arise and elect us to office and we
will do you good
