Senator Mitchell Gives His Views the
Future of Parties.
NEW YORK, April Ex-senator John
Fl. Mitchell of Oregon is at the MARI
borough hotel. He said last night: 81 am
afraid the Democratic party will make
concessions to the silver men in the plat
form adopted at the next national con-
ventlon. If it does, despite all past mis-
takes, it will sweep the country. If nei-
Their party gives silver the recognition it
deserves a new party will spring up that
will sweep the country like wildfire."
Senator Mitchell, in commenting on
the silver convention in Denver, said: 81
do not think that much good will come
of that gathering. 1t is almost impossi-
bic to build up party upon one issue,
whether it is silver or tariff. It was done
upon another question. I prefer to wait
and see what the old parties will dc. If
the Republican party does not coincide
with me, prefer to do my share to edu-
cate it instead of breaking away from it.
| think one result of this Denver conven-
ton will be to make the Republican
party realize fully the gravity of the sit
uation and may lead to its adopting a
more liberal policy toward silver at the
next Republican national convention.

LIKE many states and cities before,
Utah is striving to shift the burden of
taxation from the shoulders of the class
that always pays it, and to place it on
somebody else. To this end she will tax
mortgages. When the amount of the tax
is added to the interest rate, as it certain
Iy will be, what has been gained? Under
the system man will not only be taxed
on what he has, but what he has not. He
will be taxed on his indebtedness 1t is
idle to suppose that the holder of the
mortgage will pay any of it

THE organization of thirty nine firms
engaged in the manufacture of sashes,
doors and blinds in Chicago, into a trust
has been followed by a reduction of the
output and an advance in prices. It is
probable that public sentimentin Chicago
is opposed to the enforcement of the
antitrust law on the theory that it would
drive capital out of the city. There
seems to be a tendency toward "busi-
ness" administration in some places out
side of Kansas.

THE city of Parsons has evidently
heard of the governors pronunciamento
on the saloon question, and nine dingy,
mouldy joints have been transformed
into nine beautiful, glittering, CHEEKY sa-
looms. Now comes the new mayor, who
seems regardless of @publio sentiment"
and oblivious of the fact that this is a

every one of them closed. He says he is
in earnest about it, too, and means to
keep them closed

VALENTINES DIGEST.
1t VIII Hardly Be Ready for the Press Be
fore Fall.

It Will hardly be Ready for the Press Be
fore Fall.
Ex-Justice D. NJ. Valentine of the su-
preme court, who is soon to publish a
new digest of the laws OF Kansas, is not
able to give as much tins to his special
work as he desires on account of regular
legal work.
The digest is almost completed, and if
Judge Valentine could give all his time
to it for three months it would then be
ready for the publishers. As it is, how
ever, with his other business it is hardly
likely that the digest will go to the print
ers before late in the fall.
Judge Valentines digest will be pub
lished in one volume, if possible, and
will be. put on the market by Kansas
City and Indianapolis law book company.

DR.. HARTMAN SAYS
Nop Is the Time TO q ua, d Against
Colds The First Gold Weather.

In q recent lecture at the Surgical
Hotel DIR. Hartman is reported rs
saying that no one need catch cold
if he is willing to give the matter
slight attention that cold is the
beginning OF chronic catarrh, con-
sumption, disease of the liver,
stomach, kidoeys aud pelvic organs
All this could be prevented by TAX
ing his advice. The doctors pro.
fessional duties compelled him, for
many years, to be much on the road
night and day, by carriage. railroa |
and steamboat. During all this
time he never caught cold. This
could not have been done without
Pe.ru-na, he says. AT the slightest
evidence OF a cold a few doses of
Pe-ru-na invariably check it..
This is especially seasonable ad-
vice, for the cold winter is here,
with its storms, sudden changes,
slop, rain and snow. Thousands OF
people will contract diseases from
which they will never recover, by
catchidg cold. DR.. Hartman's ad-
vice should be needed. Pe-ru-na
cures catarrh of any stage or loca-
ton. 1t is the most popular RENE.
dy for la grippe, coughs, colds, etc.
