THEIR BOGUS HONESTY.

The gold gamblers will find before
| the campaign is over that they are
carrying a good deal of excess baggage
in assuming proprietorship Of the term
honest money" They will find that
honesty, as applied to money or any
thing else, is an unknown quantity,
not circumscribed by class limitations,
nor appropriated by any set or combine
however loud in their pretensions. 1t
is a quantity not controlled by syndi-
Gates, nor cornered by combines.
Neither is there a court or functionary
in this country authorized to grant a
charter, placing the visible supply of
honesty in the hands of few. Like
the free air of the plains, it is the
heritage Of all. 1t shows. however,
the force of ruling passion. The
clique who corners, and locks up the
gold Of the world seeks to apply the
same rule TO honesty. Were it a
tangible something, subject to barter
and sale, no doubt the means would be
found TO handle controlling interest
but luckily it is not.
There will be honest money, in both
gold and silver, long after the Roth
schildS and Morgans and Clevelands
are as dead as the Pharaohs. There's
far more honesty in the ATTEMPT to re-
store to silver its money functions than
in the selfish greed of those who would
confine that quality 10 the limit of a
mere ideal circulation in gold. No
honest, Intelligent man would contend
that the volume of gold is anything
more than a pretense as redemption
money. 1t is too plainly evident that
the worlds supply is locked up. and
not in circulation as claimed by its
advocates, hence as money of final pay
ment 1t is myth. 1t is simply mater
ializing an idea, or more properly
promisig thing which cannot be per-
formed. This makes the claim of
honest money a glaring fraud-a false
hood on It's face. When honesty ad-
mits of doing theoretically that which
cannot be accomplished practically.
when Ii authorizes legal enactments
which viii enrich few at the cost of
the many, when it is revealed that il
was the creative design that gold
should be the only substance used as
money. when it transpireS that one in
n thousand shall be entrusted with the
Keeping OF Gods best gift to man. then
let this lordly compact of concentrated
honesty proclaim its commission. and
claim the custody of our national and
individual honor.

BUT WON'T THEY HOWL.

From the Emporia Gazette
little four-by-nine preacher in Topeka
is gaining notoriety by abusing Governor
Morrill, on account of the condition of
things in Atheism, Wichita and Leaven-
worth. The preacher admits that there
is nothing to complain of in the other
towns over which the governors police
commissioners have control, but because
the depraved people of these towns insist
on having whiskey, and raising Ned, this
preacher lights into the governor. 1t
would not be so bad if the preacher did
not have a following of respectable peo-
pie, who fail to see what a breeder of
discomfort he is. There are hundreds
of people in Kansas who really believe
that Governor Morrill, has horns and
cloven feet, and who think he has entered
into a contract to let Wichita, Atchison
and Leavenworth violate the law. Two
years ago Governor Morrill, was we'll
known and we'll liked all over Kansas.
He had an ambition to make his impress
on the state as a governor. He saw
many things which as a business man
be thought he could improve in the adj
ministration Of the state. About that
time some fellows down in Kansas City
offered him $4,000 a year TO go down
there and put new life in the National
bank Of Kansas City. He refused. He
wanted to be governor of Kansas. that
he might serve the people whom he loved.
A week after he was inaugurated the
bowling began. He has tried honestly,
and has succeeded admirably in making a
clean administration. But the disgruntled
office-holders have Joined the colicky
Third party Prohibtionists and they are
trying to make Morrilrs name a re-
proach-and all because ne turned the
politicians down and appointed honest Re-
publicans to office. The trouble with the
Prohibitionists seems to be that in ap-
pointing the appellate court Mr.. Pickering.

mob should attack him thus, he would

at the hands of these people, whom he
has been ambitious TO serve so well,

afternoon, Mckinley will make n
speech at Ottawa, Kan. His mind will
be wrapped up in what he says. The
crowd will be large and he will have
TO talk loudly. The strain OF speech
making is by no means child's play.
Tired out with his speech he will take
a train for Kansas City. thence on,
without stop, to Chicago, reaching there
at 9:30 the next morning after his
speech at Ottawa. This long ride after
the long speech will glue his eyelids
together and bemuddle his mind. He
will walk like man in his sleep an
eat his meals like a machine, tasting

doesn't stop at Chicago. He takes an
other train and drives on to Cleveland,

self into a dress-suit and PUSHES to a
League banquet. He must be at his
best. What he says must be said with
brilliancy and vigor. To do otherwise
would be fatal to the petted presiden-
tial ambition. Late the next morning
he will go to bed. He will be so tired
that he cannot go to sleep. His mind
will be in whirl. With his brain
exhausted, his physical constitution in
state of collapse, his throat sore, his
stomach out of whack, he will finally
drift away into the land of nightmares
where his best friends are knitting him,
and his political enemies join in con-
spring his defeat and ruin.

THREE KISSES OF FAREWELL

Three, only three, my darling.
Separate. solemn. slow;
Not like the swift and joyous one
We used to know
When We kissed because We loved each
other,
Simply to taste loves sweets.
And lavished our kisses as summer
Layishes heats;
But as they kiss whose hearts are wrung
When hope and fear are spent,
And nothing is left to give, except
A sacrament!
First Of the three, my darling.
Is sacred unto pain;
We have hurt each other often,
We shall again;
When We pine because We miss each
other,
And do not understand
How the written words are so much colder
Than the eye and hand.
/ kiss thee, dear, for all such pain
Which We may give or take;
Buried. forgiven, before it comes,
For our loves sake.
The second kiss. my darling,
Is full of joys sweet thrill;
We have blessed each other always.
We always will.
We shall reach until we find each other
Past all of time and space;
We shall listen till we hear each other
In every place.
The earth is full of messengers
Which love sends to and fro:
/ kiss thee, darling, for all joy
Which we shall know!
The last kiss, o my darling,
My loveI cannot see
Through my tears as / remember
What ii may be.
We may die and never see each other,
Die with no time to give
Any sign that our hearts are faithful
To die, as live.
Token of what they will not see
Who see our parting breath.
This one last kiss. my darling,
Seals the seal of death.
SAKE Holm.

THE WHISKY WAR ON moRR111.

In its discussions CT the prohibitory
law the Lawrence Daily Journal is
ordinarily very level headed and dis
Passionate, even if a little bypocritical
| in its claims for Lawrence. As it we'll
says Governor Morrill, is not police
| officer. He has. under the bastard and
| fraudulent police commission law, the
| nominal police control of the six largest
cities of the state. Yet his powers
| under that law are of the letter and
| not of the spirit. The controlling sen
| timent in these cities in being denied
the ballot box to elect their police com
missioners. will just as surely select
them through the state administra-
ton or otherwise control whomsoever
the governor may appoint. Wichita,
AtchiSon and Leavenworth are not the
only towns i'm Kansas to violate the
prohibitOry law. The Journals adj
mission that there is no town in the
state in which it is not violated is as
honest as IL is true. Lawrence is no
exception. As for Wichita, we can
didly believe, from observation and
from other sources of information. is
the most orderly and sober city in the
state. The writer in observing as
much to local minister of the gospel
but yesterday was answered: "undoubt-
eddy; our city is almost monotonously
moral: but who on the outside believe
it!' So when the Journal admits that
the governor nor anyone else can en-
force the law against the Will of the
smaller communities. where it is VIC
lated, but declares that the mere alp
poInttees of the governor can do it In
the larger places in spite of the desires
of their fellow citizens to the contrary,
the Journal becomes Inconsistent
follce commissioners are citizens, gen
orally representative citizens of the
community in which they live, and be-
ing representative are better able not
only to judge what the majority senti-
ment or wish really is, but are less in
cllned to brave it once they know what
it is. Upon the other hand. under a
police commission of recognized eX-
tremists the public protest becomes so
pronounced that juries will not con-
yict. To illustrate, police commits
sion made up of say St John, Pickering
and Botkin would utterly fail to en-
force the law in either of the six cities
named from the fact of the inherent
Bunker Hill in the breast of the aver
age American citizen. Prohibition in
Kansas was never principle but a
policy, purely of party and political.
The Third party Prohibitionists are so
from principle, and a large per cent of
the Republican party individually be-
lieve in it as a sound and true govern
mental policy, but the politicians and
leaders of all the parties have favored
it themselves, and forced others to its
support through platforms, purely as
a political party policy. Soberness is
good, drunkenness bad and whiskey |
utterly indefensible, but these facts
cut little figure in the present war on |

The most distinguishing characteristic
of the gold standard orators, aside
from the pomposity of their strut. the
magnificent slosh Of their rhetoric and
the windy distensiOn of their heads,
is an utter inability to understand
the logic of their own position. 1t is
amusing to sit back and listen while
a gold standard statesman carries on a
joint debate with himself, utterly I'M
conscious of the monstrOus contradic-
tons and coflicting theories upon
which his alleged arguments are built.
1t is still funnier when you hear him
cOmmiserating the ignorance of peo-
pie who laugh at his efforts to fit
bimetallic theory to a monometallic
principle. Probably the gold standard
men could do better if they would
stick to their own side Of the case.
