0ne.Sided Football.

The football game between the
county high school and Abilene high
school was not a complete success
from an Abilene point Of view. The
Chapman team clearly out-weighed
and out-classed the Abilene boys and
had an embarrassing way Of walking
off with the ball TO its own satisfac-
tion. The score SO to 0 in favor Of
Chapman tells the story. To make a
good game there must be more
evenly matched teams. Abilene's
players did hard work but the odds
against them were TOO great.

A mans campaign may fairly be
taken to indicate his character and
the manner in which he would dis
charge official duties.
Mr.. Mahan's campaign is one Of
abuse, villitication, mudslinging and
angry fshwife epithet-hurling at all
who do not agree with him.
Mr.. Moore's is a clean, dignified,
honorable treatment Of his opponent,
basing his own claims along, sue
cessful and respected service at the
bar and not upon falsehoods and un-
scrupulous defamation. He appeals
to mems good sense, reason and
judgment and his campaign is evil
dence Of a clean-minded, dignified
lawyer.

MOORE 4 WINNER.
REPUBLICAN, PRESS OF THE DIS.
TRICT FOR HIN.
Splendid Compliments on Eighth
District Judicial Contest Cannot
Afford a Pop Judge-Mr' 1oore's
Record q Model One.

The hearty support Of every
straight Republican paper in the
Eighth district, the earnest commen-
dation Of businessmen, attorneys and
citizens Of Abilene, Dickinson county
and throughout Central Kansas, is
the best evidence that the Republi-
cans Of the Eighth district made no
mistake in nominating 0. L. Moore
for judge. He ranks among the best
lawyers Of the district, without any
exceptions; he is Republican Of
statewide reputation, an educated,
popular gentleman against whom not
q word can truthfully be said. The
abuse heaped upon him by the Pop
press is the best evidence that he is
in character, inclination and training
utterly opposed to the anarchistic
doctrines Of Populism which teach
that law is to be obeyed or not as one
wishes, and hold that the Judge on
the bench must be the tool Of some
Pop political boss instead Of admins
tering the law fairly, honestly and
impartially to all, without malice or
prejudice. That is the kind Of a man
the Republicans have nominated and
that kind Of a man is the one the
people Of this district will elect as
judge. The best testimonial to Mr..
Moore's worth and fitness for the po-
sition is the hysterical flood Of abuse
and ialsehood appearing in the Pop
press. 1t is the same abuse and from
the same quarter as assailed Judge
Humphrey four years ago and the
verdict will be now as then for the
man whom this element opposes.

SURVEYING IN THE WEST.
How the Government Corps Works

"Oct. 16, 1885, marks the date OF
a bench mark one inch square indent-
ed on the door step at the west
entrance to the court house in Abr
lene, made for the purpose Of regis
tering the elevation (not yet given

are engaged in running line OF
levels from the Atlantic to the Pacific
ocean on the line of the S9th parallel
Of latitude as near as may be. In
their passage through Kansas the line
of the Union Pacific is being followed.
In the execution Of this work Mr..
Winston is using instruments Of the
highest attainable perfection (the
lcyeling rods alone costing each $500
and is securing high degree Of ac-
curacy in his work. Two lines OF
levels are being run at the same time,
distance measured by the aid OF
stadia lines in the telescope to level
ing instrument and sixteen observa-
tions taken at each setting Of the in
struments besides reading Of temper
ature from thermometer imbedded
in the rods.
The system used is the French or
metric system in which the metre,
equal to 39.36S inches, and supposed
to be the one-ten millonth part Of
the distance from either pole to the
equator, is made made the unit OF
measurement instead OF the foot, as
used by American engineers.
The work now being done by Mr..
Winston and his party Is supple
mental to system Of triangulation
carried across the continent by two
separate parties of surveys, commence
ing one on Chesapeake bay, working
west and the other at San Francisco
and working east. These two parties
have recently completed their work
by bringing their lines together in
Colorado and uniting the coast and
geodetic triangulation Of the Atlantic
coast with that Of the Pacillc--a
marriage Of the Siamese twins OF
science.
Citizens Of Dickinson county will
remember two or three years back

Iron Mound in Saline county, and
other points visible one from another

Herington Signal Indy Persons
who live in this town and have
reached the years Of discretion need
not be told that the only way to Sc
cure the semblance of good govern
ment and personal liberty is to vote

HOPE KNOWS MAHAN.
Hope Crescent (Rep); OF all
places the bench is the last where we
want Populist. Besides, we know
John Mahan down here and he will
not carry anywhere near his party
strength. With such a candidate as
0. L. Moore the Republicans cannot
help but win. The fact that most of
Judge Humphreys supporters were
Republicans is a sure sign OF U. h.
Moore's election.
SPEAKS FROM ACQUAINTANCE.
Herington Times (Rep,); The
Times supports 0. L. Moore for dis
trict judge because it knows him to
be amply qualified by experience and
education for that position. 1t is nc
guess work, either. 1t Is fact that
we will all see demonstrated before
one.fourth part Of his term of office
will expire.

ADVICE TO DEMOCRATS.

Marion Record Rep.); The Demo-
Gratis Of Marion county will have a
good opportunity at the approaching
election to make an exhibition Of
some Of those "sweetest flowers
which Garfield said were those that
'grow over the walls Of party poll
tics.n Four years ago the Republi-
cans Of this county cast their ballots
almost solidly for a good Democrat
for Judge, who was triumphantly
elected, and who was cordially sup
ported in the discharge Of his duties
by these his political opponents, and
his official career was heartily endorsed
by them at It's honorable close. Ger
tainly Marion county Democrats can
afford to reciprocate party generosity
Of this kind. They are under no
obligations to the Populists, who
wouldn't endorse their candidate for
sheriff. Hon. 0. L. Moore will make
a worthy successor to Judge Earle in
this end Of the new district, and Of
Judge Humphrey (another good
Democrat, elected by Republicans in
the northern end of the district. We
shall see whether the Democrats will
appreciate the situation, and do the
handsome thing in politics by helping
increase Mr.. Moore's assured
majority
ARE MIGHTY LONESOME.
The Salina Sun notes that Mr..
Moore has the hearty support Of the
entire Republican press of the Eighth
district, except two pretended sheets
which are and have been knitting the
ticket, and says "they must be feeling
mighty lonesome. The whole antip-
athy is boys play and the farce
| should be cast to the wind. 1t is not
creditable to them. Mr.. Moore is q
gentleman otexcellent Judgment and
fair ability as lawyer and it is right
he should be elected

SMALL pRlNcIpLED KICKERs.

Junction City Republican (Rep);
We are pleased to learn that almost
the entire press throughout the
Eighth judicial district are endorsing
Mr.. Moore for Judge. The kickers
and chronic grumblers are small in
number and still smaller in true Re-
publican principles. Some men are
natural born grumblers, they were
made that way and can't be anything
else. II the meek and lowly Jesus
were on earth again they would cry
out with loud voice, "Crucify
HIM" Notwithstanding his stainless
character. 1t is characteristic Of dis
appointed single harness politicians
to grumble and squeal. They have a
superior faculty for this, and ability
and capacity for nothing else
SNORT IF you WISH.
Dillon Republican (Rep.): Under
the constitution the Enterprise
Journal is entitled to kick and rave
and snort and paw the ground all
they please, but 0. l.. Moore will be
elected judge just the same.
THEY ARE FOR MOORE.
The Council Grove Republican
pu blishes with its endorsement sew
eral complimentary notices Of Hon.
O. L. Moore and is for him. The
Peabody Gazette predicts Mr.. Moore's
election and it is for him.
1NsUREs MOoRE's ELECTION.
Concordia Empire (Rep.): Judge
Humphrey of junction City inde-
pendent nominee for Judge Of the 9Th
district, has withdrawn. His with
drawal now was an honorable step,
and insures the election Of Moore by
a big majority.
A SPLENDID RECORD.
Chapman Standard (Rep.); 0. l.
| Moore, the Republican nominee, is
one Of the bravest, truest, cleanes
men in Dickinson county. No man
who ever trusted him has cause to
| regret it and not a dishonest act or
breath of scandal was ever attached
to his name. He will be elected as {
matter Of course and will make one
of the best Judges that ever occupied
the bench in the Eighth judicial dis
trict. The Republicans have decided
that twenty-three years is long
enough to elect candidates from {
minority party to fill this important
office. The voters want Republican
this year, and will demonstrate this
fact by casting their ballots for Mr..
Moore.
