The story Is told Of how M. K. Wallace
fooled the pickerel In the upper lake. The
weeds were very heavy, and every time he
hooked IL FOUNDER the fish would jump
into the weeds, tangle the lines all up and
get away. Mr.. Wallace stood this for some
time. Finally, he rowed ashore and hired
from farmer n moving machine and two
horses. DivestinEhimself OF his garments
he devoted the day to moving the whole
upper lake, cutting the weeds close to the
bottom. The next day he caught dozen
IA pound pickerel, every one of which was
badly scratched from swimming over the
stubble. Journal

COMMON COUNCIL.

Every member OF the Council was pres.

moro for the care Of Jenks Park came up
at once and was settled favorably without
discussion by q vote OF six to five. After
the vote was taken the members began to
talk about the matter and the amount of
Ideas brought out showed that the mem
bers had been doing some 'tall thinking
on this subject.
Councilman Mccartney did not relish
the fact that the donor of the park wGs
still ordering trees for the park and Offer
ing to pay for them II the government re.
fused. He also developed the fact that
the park did not yet belong wholly to the
city, as the wife OF Mr.. Alvin Jenks, the
donor, had never signed Of her equity in
the land, so that there seems to be q good
sized rope attached to the park yet by the
family Of the donor.
The Committee on Fire Department

Council established the first Wednesday

On last Tuesday President CIeve-
land sent message to Congress rela
tive to the Venezuela British Guiana
boundary dispute. The controversy
between England and Venezuela arises
out OF claim by England of Venezuel-
an territory aggregating between 10000
and $4,000 square miles, the former
maintaining that the boundary line
gives that amount of land to Venezue-
la which rightfully belongs to England.
The president, in his message, holds
firmly TO the Monroe doctrine which
forbids foreign powers from increasing
their territory on this continent, and
recommends the appointment of a
committee of U. S. citizens to settle the
disputed boundary line. If the United
States should not be met by England
on this plan or some other plan of ar
bitration, from the presidents stand,
war would be inevitable. AT first the
English press and statesmen did not
regard the matter as serious but cool
| after thought seems to have changed
| the English sentiment. Lord Salisbury
held, IN the outset, that the Monroe
Doctrine is not international law, but
he has since modified his views. The
message was enthusiastically receiv-
ed by both houses of congress regard
less of the political complexion of the
members. However, no one expects a
war between England and the United
States. AS long as English capitalists
own U. 5. securities and property in
the amount they do at present, that
nation cannot afford to go to war for
trifles. England makes more by her f.
nancial system which she has fastened
on the United States, than she could
by stealing the whole of Venezuela.

ALL this poppycock that is going the
rounds of the republican press that
Congressman Long is securing pen
sions for every old soldier who happens
to get pension, is very tiresome to
anyone when he understands the PEN
sion business. A Congressman can no
more secure a pension than can the
man in the moon. All he can do is to
call the case up; the pension depart
ment does the rest. We know of sew
eral cases right here at home that were
pending ever since 1890, and, by the
way, the applications have been denied
since Chester /. Long took his seat.
Mr.. Long may have endeavored to have
them acted upon favorably, but he fail
ed. Our republican friends should re-
member that democrat is at the head
of the pension department and that all
| this praise that they are bestowing
upon Long, belongs to Lochren, and
every posted man knows that he is none
of the most worthy. When Simpson
was in congress scores of old soldiers
in this district got pensions, but no one
has ever noticed where republican
paper gave Mr.. Simpson credit for it.
We believe In giving everybody his
dues but no more. A congressman can
look after an applicants case, but he
can neither have it granted or rejected.

way. they haven't the courage to vote their

1t isn't that the people object to pos

that robbed and mismanaged the pub.
lie funds In this state. How safe would

hands of men like DR.. Dykes of cholera
steal fame or DIR. McCasey who bOOd-
led newspapers or 5. S. King who sells
his political principles for cash and
other people of that stripe.-Topeka
State Journal.
And is this the Oily reason that men,
who claim to be unprejudiced in deal
ing with public questions, have to offer
for not voting with the party that
champions the best interests of the
people? The above leads US to believe
that the Journal man would not en-
dorse postal sayings banks if they were
established by populist congress and
president because it fears that a popu-
list might get an appointment. Such a
motive is actuated by narrOwness and
selishness and implies that the Journ-
al favors the postal savings banks SIM
ply for the purpose of creating a place
for some hungry republican pie-hunt-
ers. Usually the Journal is imbued
with spirit of fairness, but outbursts
like the above show there is cog
loose somewhere. The peoples party
endorses the postal savings banks sys-
tenn because it would be of vital In
terest to the masses. It makes no diff
ference what the politics of the employees
of the institution may be; if the peo-
pies party representatives in congress
were assured that the postal sayings
banks will be established at this session
and that every employe will be repub-
lican, they would te none the less zeal
Gus in their support of the measure. 1t
is the demagogue, not the statesman,
that needs these trifling partisan OBJ
jections. Concerning the charges made
against the ex-state officers. they may
be true and they may not. We know
of many instances In which they have
been disproved. But, admitting that
the peoples party has dishonest men
that does not in any way belitJle the
principles of the party. Then again
suppose a "thieving pop" is put in
the bank as an employe, could the law
not be so framed as to make the gov
eminent secure? Altogether, the Journ
al's position is very weak. 1t is strict
ly in line with its party: republicanisn
first and Americanism afterward. Like
all the old party organs, it must KEEP
up its fight on populism or lose mo
nopoly's support. 1t advocates some
thing 364 days of the year and vote
| against 1t on the 365th.
