COAL THIEVES.

Nearly every day we read of the ar
rest of some poor devil for gathering
up little sack Of coal about some Of
the railroad yards and carrying it home,
probably to keep his family from freez-
ing. This is regarded as q very
heinous offense, and there is a deter.
mination on the part of the railroad
companies and the local authorities
that the thieves shall be properly pun.
ished. In order that no guilty man
may escape special watchmen ars en-
ployed to guard the coal cars and the
railroad yards and run in every one
who Is caught.
While this Is going on there is an
other class of coal thieves who are
likely not only to escape punishment
for their crimes but to be permitted to
continue their thievery with impunity.
These are the respectable" thieves
who are selling coal to the citizens Of
Topeka, and robbing them by short
weights. This practice, it seems, has

possess merit. They have this virtue
at least: The diseases for which they
are said to be specifics are not, as q
rule, diseases that are proceeding with
Lightning speed to a fatal termination
during the period of their trial. Dlph-
liberia specifics do not possess this
virtue. They are absolutely vicious
from the very fact that time wasted in
their trial is time utterly and forever
lost. Were there nothing else to indi'
cate the folly of experimenting with
them the absolute sbsurdity of sup

should have the same treatment

dies. In disease which proceeds so
ranidly to a termination, these special
remedies must be applied promptly, at
the proper time, and by an experienced
hand. It Is our belief that by acting
upon the foregoing suggestions many

Topeka JOURNALISM.

1t would be kind act if some
body could get the editorial force of
the State Journal together and line
them up. They are a bold, fearless
set, but they don't gibe, or, as is said
of set of wagon wheels, they don't
track. They are generally right on ma
tionsl questions, but in local matters
they are so very inconsistent.
The Journal had frequently pointed
out the bad features of Sheriff Burdge's
official actions, and they are well worth
criticising. One was that he kept q
drunken, dlsreputsble deputy in the
county's employ. This was only one
of his faults, but it was the one the
Journal talked most about, and 1t was
bad enough. Yet that paper wanted
the people to re-elect Burdge instead
of electing Kepley, and is very sorry
about the result.
On what grounds does the Journal
condemn Kepley in sdvsnceP True,
he is not one of the pretentious, hypo-
critical sort of prohibitionists that are
SO common around the court house,
but he is sober and well behaved, and
may make q good Sheriff. The Jour
nal has played farce comedy for the
benefit Of local audiences so long that
it hardly knows how to be fair on this
subject Of prohibition.

way Of escape. The Republican ma
chine and its organs never miss an OPP
portunity to parade their pretended
loyalty to prohibition except when it
comes to putting their hypocriticsl pre-
tensions into practice. In that, there
has never been q moment since the
enactment Of the laws for the enforce
ment of the prohibitory amendment
that they have made an honest at
tempt. Their hypocrisy was never
more nearly exempllded than under
the present redeemeF administration;
and yet In the face of all this the Cap
itGI still has the gall, since the elec-
tion, to claim Dave Burdge as the law
and order candidate for Sheriff, and
that his candidacy stood for the per-
petustion of prohibition In Shawnee
county and the State. 1t must be hu-
initiating for the Capital to admit that
prohibition has encountered such
setback in this county, but but it was
necessary to make the admission in
order to escape the still more humili-
ating presumption set forth in its ante
election statement that the vote for
Kepley would be a vote "to sustain
LeWelling and his infamous war;" and
that "there is no evasion of this test.
Poor old Capital; it is in hard row Of
stumps.
The advocate., 1895-11-13

No, THE people of Kansas do not
want to return to the open saloon,
either under high license, no license or
local option, but you can't convince
them that it is drug store whisky that
robbed 20 per cent. of them of their
homes, and as many more of their jobs
during the last ten years. Neither the
State Journal nor Rev. Barney Kelley
believes that.
The advocate., 1895-11-13

There you have it. Before election
the contest turned upon the question
whether the Populists were right In
the legislative controversy, and the
Capital clearly and emphstically stated
that q vote for Kepley would be "a
vote to sustain Lewelling and his in
famous war" 1t clearly stated that
"theTe is no eUdSiOn Of this test. >
Well, the people voted for Kepley and
he has been elected in this Republican
stronghold of the State. Since this
has happened the Capital has dis
covered the awkward dilemma in which
it placed itself and now hastens to
record his election as a resubmission
victory. The Lewelling war wasn't in
1t little bit. That would do to talk
about when it was hoped that the pref
udices OF mossback Republicans might
be worked up against Kepley by it,
but it will never do to let 1t 60 that

Several of the city dealers are said to
have been caught, but the name Of
only one company has yet been made
public, and that would probably not
have occurred If the fool driver had
gone peacesbly to the city scales and
submitted to have his load weighed
without remonstrance. His resistance
attracted a crowd Of people who dis
covered the name of this company for
Themselves It was not made public
by the officer whose duty it is to pro.
tect the people from this system of
robbery. The story as published in
the daily papers is short and we repro
duce it for the benefit of our readers:
The war is still on between the Topeka coal
dealers and Inspector Farnsworth. 1t became
so heated yesterday afternoon that colored
driver for the Southwestern Fuel Company
wanted to engage in rough and tumble battle
with the Inspector rather than drive to the
city scales and have his load weighed.
The Inspector hailed the driver at the corner
OF Fifth street and Kansas avenue and re-
questsd him to go to the city scales at the hay
market At the corner OF Fifth and Jackson
streets the driver refused to 90 to the scales
and wanted 10 drive his wagon west on Fifth
street. Inspector Farnsworth grabbed the
lines and stopped the horses He then called
Sergeant Ellison and advised the driver to go
peacefully to the scales.
lion Weighing the load at the scales Inspector
Farnsworth found that the wagon was sup
posed to contain two tons and was consigned
to the ThroOp hotel. The load was something
over 200 pounds short
Inspector FarnsWorth had trouble with an
other coal driver on Wednesday evening on
Quincy street near Sixth. The driver at first
refused to have his load weighed. He finally
acceded to the request Of the Inspector and
drove his wagon to the scales. 1t was found
to contain 300 pounds less coal than 1t was
alleged to contain.
1t may be interesting to the reader
to know that the Southwestern Fuel
Company is understood to be the Santa
Fe Railroad Company. The poor devil
who picks up a little sack of coal to
keep his family from freezing is given
fifteen days on the rock pile, while the
respectable thief who makes practice
Of robbing the people by short weights
of hundreds Of pounds on a wagon
load is not even arrested. Still worse,
his name is withheld from the public
and his crime hushed up so that the
people cannot even protect themselves
by withdrawing their patronage from
the Scoundrels and giving it to the
honest dealers. 1t is about time to
have Kansas redee med again.

DIPHTHERIA CURES.

S0.cRlled discovery by Prof. BlskeJ OF
the Stats University, Of an efficient
remedy for the treatment Of diptheria.
This remedy consists Of solution Of
common salt through which current
Of electricity has been passed. Con-
corning the merits of the remedy itself
we have only to say: common salt,
chemically designated, is chloride of
sodium, and chlorine, in its nure state
or In its combinations, has always been
recognized by the medical fraternity as
remedy Of great value in the treat
ment of dlphtheris. Whether or not
the passage Of current of electricity
through the solution adds anything to
its virtues may be seriously questioned.
It is quite certain also that other
chlorides are far more valuable than
the chloride Of sodium. OF this class
og remedies the tincture of the chloride
Of iron unquestionably stands at the
head. But aside from all this the most
important thing to be said about Prof.
Blake's discovery is that he makes the
same mistake that is made by all non
professional discoVerers of diphtherla
specifics in supposing the exudation in
the nrORt to be the disease. His
remedy is designed merely as a gargle,
and is presumed to cure by contact.
While, like all other chlorides, it may
possess q certain value as local appli
cation, ss a remedy for the disease of
which the exudation is only an incl
dent 1t is absolutely worthless.
1t is not our purpose now, however,
to discuss the merits or demerits Of
any remedy or Of any system of treat
ment: but, inasmuch as diphtheria is
prevailing in malignant form in this
city and elsewhere, word of caution
In relation to It's management would
seem to be opportune. Upon this sub
ject it may be said: Experience has
demonstrated that its fatality is largely
increased by delays In the beginning of
proper treatment. 1t is owing to this
fact that the patent nostrums, great
discoveries and certain specifics which
are extensively advertised as unfailing
cures Of diphtherln are especially mis-
Chievous. A great many people are prone
totry theseremedies before they send for
the family physician, and by this means
they fritter away the period when
proper treatment might be most effec.
tive. This is true Of Prof. Blske's
remedy as we'll az all others. The fact
cannot be too strongly emphasized that
diphtherla is not local disease. 1t Is
vlrulent blood poison and requires
active constitutional treatment. To
be- successful this treatment must also
be- early. No time should be lost in its
commencement.
Il may be asked how the disease is

earliest stages. 1t cannot be, but
whenever it is prevailing in any COM

Detectives Kept Busy With Burg
lars and Burgiaries.
The detectives have been kept
quite busy for several days past
in recovering stolen property and
in watching and catching thieves
and running others, who are sus-
poets, out of the city.
Yesterday several were arrested,
among them being four boys taken
in by Detective Shelley, named re.
spectively John O'Bryan, Edward
Mickey, Willie Crockett and Noah
Franklin, charged with burglary
and theft in robbing International
and Great Northern cars of coffee.
Detective Shoaf arrested Grant
Eaton, on the charge Of theft under
$50 yesterday. Mr.. Shoaf was COM
ing out of a restaurant on GalaD
street when he saw Eaton pass him
carrying an overcoat. He was
walking fast and his appearance
struck the officer as being sus-
picious and he followed him across
the San Pedro. The man turned up
Laredo street and made his way
to Paschal square, where he de-
posted the overcoat In a basement
saloon. While watching this
man Mr.. Shoaf saw another fell
low,whom he felt sure was q crook,
go into this place with a valise.
He arrested Eaton and secured the
overcoat, which proved to belong
to DR.. Sommerville, having been
stolen from his buggy on Houston
street.
The valise proved to be the prop.
erty of Mr.. Geo. Foster, and it was
also recovered.
Mr.. J. r. Hooper's room was en-
tered by burglar last night and
one new suit and a pair of pants, a
coat and a vest were stolen. This
morning Detective Shoaf recovered
some OF the clothes where they
hal been sold to party living on
the west side of the San Pedro
creek.
The detectives are also on the
search for clothing stolen from Mr..
G. G. Jannin some time ago.
Last night the residence OF Chas.

offered every compromise to settle
this matter with the owners on
the opposite side Of the street to
straighten the line, the last one be-
ing a few days ago, to give the full
10 feet on their side, IL the other
side would give u feet, thus max.
ing a large and beautiful street
This was refused by the opposite
owners.
The entire matter has been be-
fore the council for a long time
and it seems that Mr.. Darragt
should now, at last, be given his
rights in the premises by the pres
ent council.
