No use trying to keep the state treas
urer sober so long as local sentiment
tabOut the state house, is on continu-
GUS drunk. Governor Morrill, was
certainly not sober when he signed
vouchers for the payment of clerical
work done for him before his term be-
gan.-Topeka Advocate.

Sound money" is the slogan CT the
goldbug element. BY it they hope to
deceive the people once more. Will
the honest toiling millions be deceived
again? If they do not come together
and work fer their common interest
they ought to and will suffer the con
equences.-Pratt Union.

Here is a new straddle, fathered by
CheSte: l. Long: I'VE believe in the
restoration of silver and not in the deg
radiation of gold" Look out for it!
When you see your congressman ask
him if he thinks it would degrade gold
to admit silver TO the minis upon the
same terms as gold. This will test

There is absolutely no honor, no vir-
tuous principle in the pretensions of
gold monOmetalists. 1t is sheer craft
for gain. 1t is hypocrisy. Every line
OF argument, every pretended belief is
but the unhallowed gloss over the de-
structlve snare beneath. And this is
true from the supreme court up to Hog
neck in the presidential chair.-Wil-
sOnton Banner.

If the ''redeemers" are one half as
mean as some of the republican papers
IN the state make them out, they should
all be out of Office and IN the peniten-
tary. This investigating business has
stirred up hornets nest that Cy Lee
land never dreamed of, and he now
talks of issuing a manifesto to explain
matters. Cy is evidently losing his
nerve.-Anthony Bulletin.

Omaha Bee: The Kelley cure man
finds himself just now in very deli
cate position. He has just been order
ed by Kansas court to make public
the formula of his jag remedy and he
has been enjOined by Wisconsin court
from doing anything of the kind.
Whatever he does he has the penalty
for contempt staring him in the face.
There is one simple way out of it. Let
the doctor confess that he doesn't know
what his compound is made of.

In an opening prayer Sunday morn
ing at conference, Doctor Leonard, of
New York, prayed for the President
and his advisors. and then for the gov
errors of the states. He then said:
May all our rulers rule in righteous
nessl' No one should pray for thing
unless he is willing to cooperate with
God III securing it. The way to help

The business" (?) administration
which Kansas is to have at the hands
of the "redeemers' is well illustrated
By vouchers on file in the state audit
or's office on which Governor Morrill,
drew money from the state treasury to
pay expenses of keeping his pie coun-
ter" open one month prior to his Inau-

dreamed of beforel Such business,
methods as these would land ordinary
men in the penitentiary but Kansas
must be redeemed or reid and the
state treasury pays the freight. -
