than several other counties. Wyah-
dotte is a close second now, and Sedg-
wick county a close third but for years
Sedgwick was close second and Tor
one year. we believe, Sedgwick was
first. In six years Sedgwick paid
S125. 900 more than Wyandotte. How
ever it has not been lower than third
for number Of years.
This leads to something else. All
the other large tax contributing coun-
ties of the state, everyone Of them. Is
backed up by some state institution
through which they draw back more
than they pay into the state treasury.
Shawnee gets more out of the state
treasury than she pays in, vastly more.
Sedgwick county pays from $4,000
to $4,000 per year in state taxes. In
a few years past Sedgwick county has
paid over a half million dollars into
the state treasury. What has she re-
ceived in return other than bluffs and
kicks when we have asked anything.
The Orphans Home and the Topeka
Boys School and the State Reforma-
tory constituted political job, and
Wichita was to have the RefOrmatOry.
But through Topeka influence and a
purchase price Wichita was skinned.
Sedgwick county will pay into the
state treasury this year about $4,000.
What will she get out Of it? Sedgw!ck
county is called upon to put up this
year $500 towards the completion Of
the state house at Topeka. The audi
tor calls on our county clerk to spread
on the tax rolls an additional $3,O99.S1
for sustaining the State university for
the coming year. What does Sedg-
wick county get out Of this?

He tried many so called Kidney cures but without any good result. About year ago he began use of Electric Bitters and found relief at once. Electric Bitters is especial ly adapted to cure of all Kidney and Liver troubles and often gives almost instant relief. One trial will prove our statement. Price only Soc. for large bottle.

The Vidette has received q cir cular letter from Henry NJ. Coop CT, Republican of Little Rock, {, requesting the publication of an article entitled "Facts about Free Coinage, How it Will Affect the Farmer and the Workingman." The article is too lengthy 10 give it space in the Vldette. It covers the entire argument of the gold standard men, with the usual and customary perversion of facts. It will be noticed that the same old gang-the Republicans-is behind this scheme to force the single gold standard as have been behind all class legislation and all schemes tending to a standardization ofpow CT. It will be hard matter to force this Republican medicine down the throats of Democrats Woodruf County Vtdette.

AN official count shows that there are 50,000,000 silver dollars stored in the Government mint at Philadelphia. The Treasury de- partment has made dilIigent ef. forts 10 get them into active circu- latioh and offers to pay the cost of transportation to any point in the United States, but all efforts have proven unavailing This only goes 10 show that people are not as fond of silver dollars as the free silverites of the Is to l variety would have us think.
 The above from the Pine Bluff Graphic, Il champion of the gold bug theory, needs explanation, What efforts wore made by the Government to get this money in circulation? How did the Gov ernment propose to get 1t into CIT culation? Did 1t offer to pay off it's obligations in this money. when it had the right to, or in stead, did it issue 50,000,000 dol lars worth of bonds? The story as told above is too thln to be swal- lowed, without verlfication.

Exposition Notes.

In letter to Hon. Wm. l.. Scruggs, legal adviser of that gov ernment, dated August 10th, Dr. Andrade, Venezuelan minister at Washington, states that the five States of Miranda, Zulia, Zarmora, Bermudes and Bolivar have all formally accepted the invitation, and will be represented at the Ex. position.
 A movement was begun by the Exposition management, few days ago, to bring all school chil dren above the grade of grammar schools to the Exposition, and it is believed that at least a quarter of a million will come. There are a halfmiIlion boys and girls in the high schools, seminaries and a. cadmies of the Southern States, and is is estimated that fifty per cent. can be brought. pr. Charles w.. Dabney, IT,, chairman of the Gov. ernment Board, who spent many years of his life in educational work, holds that this is the great est educational opportunity of the generation, and the Government exhibit alone, when properly stud jed, will be better than school term. Principals of academies, seminaries and colleges, complain that their schools will be demoral- ized by the Exposition this fall, and to meet the case. an organized effort will be made to get all such institutions to give one week vaea- ton, and bring their schools in a body to the Exposition, SO that af- terward the pupils can go on with their work without interruption.

 TIE silverites are trying 10 hold wages and the price of farm pre- duets down, in order that they may charge the deficiency to the appreciation oi gold and the de preciation of silver. But, like Bancho's ghost, they will not down. Wages are gradually ad- yancing, and every line of trade aad business has an upward ten. dency.-H erald, CIarksviIle Ark.

In Greene county, Missouri, Mrs. Helen c. Stewart has been appointed sheriff to succeed her hus band, who died few weeks ago. She is said to be the first woman sheriff in the United States, or in the world, and it is thought that when her term ex- pires she will be nominated by the Republicans for that office.
 We believe in giving women a wide field and every proper op- portunity to earn their living, but it strikes us that no woman is fit for the office of sheriff. A good sheriff will not hesitate to hang q man, and it is sometimes hls duty to lead a posse into battle with armed and desperate rioters.
 It will not do to say that a sher- if may appoint deputies to do the disagreeahle work of the office There are times when the sheriff. should act in person, and not tbrow the responsibility and dan- ger upon others.
 If women are to be sheriffs, then let them be subject to militia and road duty. A community which chooses a woman for sheriff is marching into a state of barharism. Certainly the latest Missouri freak is not in the line of progress.-At- lanta Constitution.

ment last? But let us take any other government of Europe or in the world and ask how long would they exist if their rulers and mIn- isters and hired officials should go around and preach to their people that their lawful money was un- sound, depreciated stuff and not worth more than one-half for which it passed, although the government paid it out and receiv. ed it daily as tho best of money and for its face value.
 If it is in France conspiracy to injure the government and its credit for one of it's citizens to claim that one kind of it's none y is any better than another, is it any less criminal for MT. Cleve land and his co-adjutors to say 
 that silver or any of our lawful money is "unsound" or "dishon. est" or worthless than it's full face value7
 If the silver dollar coined in l792 was good and sound then All tbo a; ,o, q c Ito,e no,,oj I a;,aa .l a |. must necessarily be good and sound.
 But he is the last man in the world who should find any fault with our coined silver dollar. He was elected hy the Democratic party on q platform which in it's 7th section distinctly called for tho coinage of silver on the same terms as that of gold.
 In his letter accepting the nomi. nation he made no objection to any of the provisions of the plat. form and it must therefore be ac. cepted that without any evasion or equivocation he endorsed all and every part of it. In his comment. on the seventh section, his obser. vation was that every dollar put into the hands of the people should | be of the same intrinsic value or purchasing power.' That the sil yer dollar has the same purchas ing power IS any other dollar, he aud nobody else will deny. If be base his repudiation of the plat form and his solemn pledges to the people before the election, to the trivial fact that the bullion in the silver dollar is of less value than in the coined one, he is satis fled with a very feeble excuse to those who voted for him with the belief that he was in full accord with the platform of the party.

SOME few of the gold-bug lead, CTS have signilied their intention of bolting the Democratic nomi- nation, in case it should be free silver man. This, of couIse, is no more than could be reasonably expected, as many of the gold bugs have no care for the welfare of the country, and only live for "self." Any element that is pure ly selfish, whether Republican or Devil, is more eongenial to them than q patriotic principle which has for it's object the relief of the masses. There are some, howev- CT, of the "sound-money" persua sion who will not go this far, and while they will do their level best to keep the white metal in the back ground, will, when they are confronted with defeat, come out for the party of the people.
 The next campaign is going to be the most bitter and trying in the history of the Democratic par ty, and many changes will take place in the political faith of men. Some Democrats will join the Re publican party, If free silver platform is adopted, by the Dem ocracy, but Republicans will leave their party ani come over to Democracy, and it will be about q set off. But fight is on.
