I'm HALLowELL knows what he IS
talking about when he says: 81 think
d Morrill, keeps up the old soldier gag
oh longer he will soon be out OF
tics Yes, mean the gov'nor, He
er fought in a battle and the only
zAg he did during the war to hand out
sour crackers and bad meat to the boys
who did the fighting. I've said it many
times all over the state, and we people
down in Wichita don't love Morrill, over
much, anyhow" The DEMOCRAT has
always contended that the politicians of
the Morrill, stripe have worked the old
soldier racket to the utter disgust of all
fair minded men. The only criticism
we have to make of Col. Hallowell is
that he, who was really and truly a
'.soldier," and brave one, has per-
mitted himself and the real old soldiers
of Kansas to be ''worked" so long by
the republican politicians.

Stamping ground and their father made
the nominating speech in the convention
prior to Wsaver's election to congress
in Iowa the first time. That father also
lived to suffer through Weaver's in
gratitude and treachery. Weaver
howled for years against railroad mo-
nopoiies and then voted against the in
terstate commerce bill in congress. He
went wild In behalf of the ''poor, down.
trodeen farmers" and voted against re-
lief for the Des Moines river land suf-
ferers. He howled himself hoarse in
behalf of organized labor and at the
same time ran rat print shop in Des
Moines. He made frantic professions
as the soldiers friend, but tried to de-
feat the dependent pension BILL He
was the loudest bowler in the United
States in behalf of the honest toiler on
the farm and yet opposed Arthur.s

But it comes natural to class man as

impatient, long suffering and philo-
sophical of animals.

out of the old world by just such ex-
perimental interferences with their indi-
vidual habits and tastes. Life, liberty
and the persuit of happiness i'll his own

man, and the fanatical minority who
persist upon running things to suit
themselves should be brought to sud

rights of others. The panacea for this
fanatical fad is in voting the democratic
ticket. based on platform that opposes
sumptuary laws and guarantees indi-
lvidual liberty. We certainly favor en-
forcement of any law that exists on the
statute books, but where the law is OBJ
noxious and unavailing it should be re-

only party that comes out squarely and
