hanging about the corridors OF the
state capitol insisting upon another
chance TO stump the state. In their
ambitions the masculine seems pre-
dominant, while the persiStency of the
woman nature keeps them at it. Chap,

WASN'T 1T FUNNY THOUGH

The way that proposition to give

/ hint of the scheme in its Sunday issue
Because of the power of the great

count of Il receyiership there, an or
ganiZatiOn had to effected here, and
some kind of a basis for a guaranty
proffered before the receivers could
legally take hold. This all had been
looked into and gone carefully over by
citizens here and railroad officials
there more than a year ago. 1t was
not proposed that any outlay should
the payment Of money gone into. The
first ten miles Of road was TO be ac-
cepted, the expense constructing the
same assumed and the remainder of the
line completed, not by the city and
county but by the receivers in the in
terest of an independent operated trunk
line. That was what was to be done.
or otherwise nothing save the club that
would have been thus put into our
hands as city through such demon
Stration.
Its all very funny now. The local
attorneys of the three trunk lines serv-
ing this city, backed by a lot of their
brother attorneys, which they had
picked up, became indignant, outraged,
that a set of men, among them those
who had been prominent in securing
every road we have, save one, should
presume to propose that 4 drowning
man might even attempt 10 catch at
straw. They called Il meeting, an
indignation meeting, in which the rot
tenness Of something of which they
do not know a thing, was shown up,
exposed, denounced, and everlastingly
squelched. The truth is that few of
the men chosen as directors knew then,
or know now, of the scheme. They
were and are as innocent as lambs.
But the railroad attorneys, and the
other attorneys, made their speeches
and the rebaters voted AYE" and the
thing was pronounced unanimously
done
In the past year and a half 4 good
deal Of work had been accomplished
in the interest of the enterprise thus
so summarily flattened out, work, not
in the interest of any individual, but
for the community as whole, and the
time, or some time in he future, that
hasty action will be repented, prob
ably not by the attorneys but by those
who would have been benefiiciaries.

cut down in weight twice in the history
of the country. Silver remained the
standard until it was deprecated by
Reputation. Decentralization was
simply reputation of silver as stan
dar of value.
No one denies that the borrower should
repay the lender a sum of equal pur-
chasing power with that which was
borrowed. Anything else is dishonesty.
Upon the other hand it is just as dis
honest 10 force the borrower to pay
his debt in something mOEe valuable
than he borrowed. Now it is not
true that under the depreciation of
silver, or in the wiping out of one
half of the redemption money of this
country the western borrower is COM
PEELED TO pay two hundred bushels of
wheat where one hundred would have
paid it ten years ago, or two horses
when one would have sufficed.
The constitution says that congress
shall pass no law impairing the Obli-
cations of contract, yet congress in
the decentralization of silver, and in
all of its legislation since which tended
to the single standard, has changed
every contract in which cash at some
future time named was to be paid.
In robbing the country of one-half OF
its redemption money it virtually adj
ded to the length of the debtors yard
stick and increased by double the ca
pacity of every measure with which
he must meet his obligations, for money
is the embodiment of ali measures used
in commerce. So while under the pres
ent rule the east owns the west, Europe
will soon own, if it does not already.
the United States of America. Europe
will not only own all that this country
has and all that its industries can earn,
but the people of this country will
be but the slaves of Europe, the pro-
ducts Of our labor going TO pay the
appreciated obligations, the interest
and principal of which are payable
only in value whose standard we
have deliberately appreciated or en-
HANGED TO our own beggary.
Look at France, prosperous France,
France in the heart of gold-bound
western Europe, France with her 15lla
of silver to her / of gold and no QueS-
ton as TO their parity, and then answer
why silver should not be rehabilitated.

Are Editors Too Cenerouse

Cross Resident: In Frank Greer's adj
dress before the editorial convention on
''Why Editors are Poor" he said that
the reason was that they were too gen.
erous. "A man will come into a news
paper Office and think nothing of taking
a newspaper or asking for several,
when he would never think OF saying TO
a dry goods merchant Let me try a
spool of your thread yet in worth they
are the same" There is never a week
passes but the newspaper man gives
away more value in newspapers and
friee advertising than all the rest of the
town put together. AS a general thing
a man thinks he is doing all that is re-
qUired of him if he furnishes the ad-
dresses Of papers and the newspaper
man sends them out, without / cent Os
remuneration.

The suspicion is about in the land
Of Kansas that the house committee,
sent to Kansas City for the purpose
of enquiring into the abuses and out
rageous stealings perpetrated by the
commission men and owners of the
live stock yards at that point, on the
producers Of Kansas, were tempered
with. The committee failing to make
any report of its findings was 'jaeked
up" by summary resolution. 1t turns
out that they failed of finding any
thing except a big banquet gotten up
by the stock yards interests, in which
there was plenty TO drink, so much to
drink that some Of the members of the
committee made holy show of them
selves On the platform of the union
depot. 1t seems that they took no
evidence except such as was offered
by the fellows who set up the banquet,
which evidence is as one-sided as it
is vOluminous. The legislature doesn't
know what to do with it In the mean
time the committee is begging to be
sent back to have their spree out, not
that they can't get liquor in Topeka,

opportunities of being happy, but no

that a man may be contented and hap

in this world, there is everything in be-

is when the young man and the young
woman who is TO comprise the future
married couple receive their first train

In most Of the cases where marriage
has proved a failure close investisa-
ton will show that the husband or wife,
perhaps both, have never receiver a
proper business or domestic training.
and each has relied upon the other to
make him or her happy. This notion is
in itself fatal to happiness. The man
