that Wichita be allowed TO select its
prohibitionists to be given 1900 votes as
starter.

Arkansas City Reporter: The governor
fired the Wichita police commission and
appointed a new board and then made
run for the train in an exert to get to
Ohio before Marsh Murdoch could hear
of il.
Winfield Tribune: The Wichita Eagle is
now getting into deep water. Last Tues
day IL threw off the mask and questioned
the inf1llability of the judges of the su-
preme courts, even the supreme court OF
Kansas.
Dighton Herald: In one column the
Wichita Eagle advocate disobedience of
law, and in another berates tramp for
petty larceny. The continued advocacy of
free silver and free whisky VIII wreck
the brightest intellects.
Kansas City Gazette: We call the at
tention of the sufferers at Wichita 10 the
fact that the people of Atchison were an
noyed but week or so in getting their
beer. Neither side TO controversy can
trust liar and a hypocrit.
Topeka Capital: Marsh, halt just

trail point. A division of the state or re-
novel of the capital farther west is de-
sired by the western half of the state.
Emporia Republican,; The Eagle wants
to have an election in Wichita. The only
difficulty with that plan, is that under
the system in vogue at present the votes
of Wichita are not empowered TO pass
upon the question of constitutional laws.
Kansas City Journal: Governor Morrill,
appointed a prohibition police board for
Wichita, and then ran away on three
weeks vacation before Editor Murdoch
could train his double-leaded thunder on
him. Is not this grounds for impeach--
ment?
Wellington Voice: The Wichita Eagle is
advocating the removal of tn state capital
from Topeka to some more central loca-
ton. The Voice, and we believe we may
say, the people of Sumner county, VIII
heartily second such a move. Let 1t be
agitated.
Norman Transcript: The Wichita Eagle
in standing up for Wichita as IL does is
convincing proof that It is sincere ana is
working for the interests of its best citi-
Zens. Wichita is a city too great to be
hampered with restrictions that are per-
missible in country villages.
Troy Chief: The WNhita Eagle trium-
phantly exclaims that the sentiment of
Kansas is for free silver; that the Chief
Justice of the supreme court is in favor
of it. But it happens that the Chief JUS
tice was not placed in that position De-
cause of his views on silver.

Of the new police commissioners of Wich-
tia, and the lip Of the assistant attorney

ing the remainder of her exitence.
Arkansas City Reporter: The new men
who have been put in charge OF the des-
TIMES of Wichita by the grace of the
tone of voice. On Monday one of them,
as Jerry Black would say, turned his
mouth loose and went off and left it,
Kansas City Gazette: The Wichita
Eagle at last throws up the sponge, and
says that after the prolonged struggle of
hope deferred Wichita has at last been
downed. This only means that her beer
has been shut Off But she should take
courage. Atchison was dry for scarcely
week.
Kansas Breeze: That 30G-pound farmer
at Wichita who chuckled pretty Mrs.
Wentz under the chin and kissed her.
was fined $685. which he paid with a
smack of his lips which said plainly as
words that he considered 1t worth twice
the money.
Lawrence World: The kick of the Wich-
tia Eagle on the removal of the police
board is understood since il has come to
light that Colonel Murdoch selected 1t.
1t has always been strong point or the
Eagle to be loyal However, the men
selected did not do their duty and had to
be removed.
Council Grove Republican: Leaven-
worth and Wichita are getting consider
able advertising out of this prohibition
business but 1t is not the kind most towns
would desire. Several people have told US
they had no idea Leavenworth was such
a tough place until they read about 1t in
the newspapers.
Kansas Breeze: The Wichita Eagle an
nounces that General Dawes is planning
to do up Governor Morrill, and run for
governor in his stead. II IS becoming
more and more evident that Marsh has
been fooling around in the country south
west of Wichita and strayed into patch
of loco somewhere
Lawrence World: T. would be just as
sensible for the people of Lawrence 10
rush into a disgra ceful rebellion because
the general government would not allow
us to elect our postmaster as for Wichita
to be pouting because the ilIegal PROPOSE
ton TO have the police commissioners
elected is not granted.
Lawrence Journal: AtchSon. Leaven-
worth and Wichita are very bad and de-
praved towns. but they are 20 be con-
graduated upon the fact that they have
sufficient self control TO keep them from
r1obbiug the walking delegates who are
paid to go into their streets and raise a
row among the citizens.
Topeka Journal: We understand that
newspaper called the Eagle in pre;en-
tons town named Wichita. on the Ar
kansas river. IS making loud noise in It's
advocacy of the removal OF the capital
from Topeka. Topeka, backed her news
papers, so successfully smut OF the beer
and whisky of that town
Atchison Globe: Governor morrill,
doesn't care whether Wichita likes II or
not. but he is polite TO Leavenworth.
Atchison. Wichita and Leavenworth must
think.
There's corn. corn everywhere. but not a
drop 10 drink.
