Great Popn1ist Gains.

The Associated Press has again
shown it's unfairness by refusing
to publish the Populist vote, ex-
cept in isolated instances where
it was very small. From what
we can gather from othersources
we learn that the populists have
not lost any ground but have in
creased atahealthy rate. In Ohio,
McKinley's own state, there are
to-day not less than 10000 popu-
lists; Coxey's Daily claims &c.
600. Kentucky doubled herPop-
ulist vote of a year ago, making a
number Of about $4,000. Iowa
holds h r. own in good shape.
The results are cheering to ev-
cry thinking friend Of reform.
The republicans will be encour-
aged by their alleged victory
over the silver sentiment to come
out boldly for the gold standard
next year The democrats are
being made to believe that their
defeat was due to "monkeying
with the soft money craze' and
will likely be whipped into line
by the administration. Then,
what will the poor hi. meta]ist dol
A rupture in the old parties
seems inevitable.

STILL AFTER MACK
ANOTHER CASE AGAINST MACKEN.
ZIE DOWN IN SUMNER.
The People Of Mulvane Will Not Let Up
Town--Case Was Being Prepared While
Mackenzie Was on Trial Here--Misfor-
tunes Never Come sinsly--The Feeling
In Mulvane Is All One Wsy--County At
torney OF Sumner Wants to Know About
the Trial Here.

1t has been learned on what seems to
be good authority that another case
will be commenced against Dr. Mac
kenzie in Sumner county in which ne is
charged with an offence similar to that
for which he was tried and acquitted in
Judge Reeds court.
The county attorney Of Sumner coun-
ty has been enquiring about the Smith
case with view of ascertaining
whether there were any facts in that
case that could be used in the one that
will be brought in Sumner county.
Dr. Mackenzie doubtless thought
when the jury returned a verdict de-
claring him not guilty and he kissed
the faithful wife who had stood by his
side during his trouble that he was for
ever clear of this charge of murder.
There are people who think that mis-
fortunes never come singly. That a
man is always surrounded by a group
of misfortunes and when one overtakes
him another will quickly follow.
DR.. Mackenzie will doubtless think
there is something in this when he
finds himself again under arrest, which
he is almost certain to do in the next
few days. A prominent citizen of Null
would certainly be arrested today, that
everything was ready before the Gull
mination of the trial here.
This same man said that the feeling
was bitter in Mulvane against Mac
kenZie and this talk about the town be-
ing divided was a mistake, that the peo-
pie were practically unanimous in de-
nouncing Mackenzie. He said the peo-
pie there believed that Mackenzie has
been for some time engaged in this
business and that they are determined
to make him quit it or drive him from
the town.
Whether the feeling against Mac
kenZie grew out of this Smith case or
whether there is something back of 1t
all could not be learned from the crowd
of witnesses who attended the trial
here. A number Of them were asked in
regard to this but they all said that
the feeling against Mackenzie grew out
of the Smith case.
1t seems that the people in Mulvane
who had advanced money to employ
OBryan and Gordon to assist the
prosecution of DR.. Mackenzie doubted
whether he could be convicted of muir
der and they We're hunting evidence i'll
another case while the doctor was on
trial here.
DR.. Mackenzie is said to be man
OF limited means and 1T is supposed
that most of his money has been ex-
pended in the case which was tried here
in Sedgwick county and another case
like this other one would be rather eX-
penSive for the doctor.

City Chemist, St. Louis:

for her and the boy but hard on the
taXpayers of Sedgwick county.
Another well dressed woman called
yesterday to ask for aid and said she
had been in this county for one year.
She informed the county commissioners
that she found other families who were
getting coal and groceries and her idea
was that one family was as much enti-
tied to aid as another.
Sedgwick county has been liberal
with its poor and the commissioners
are beginning to fear that the liberaii-
ty is causing an immigration OF peo-
pie who come on purpose to get the aid.
a different method of dispensing char
ity will probably be adopted by the
commissioners in the near future

time while Gauge made his feet so fast
from step to step as he descended.
1t came about this way: Some OF the
files have disappeared from the circuit
clerks office and Judge Reed issued an
order that no files should be taken
from the Office.
|, This puts the lawyers to the trouble
of sometimes making copies. Yester-
day Colonel Sam Amidon wanted TO
take the papers fled in a case down TO
the probate court room to make COM
parison but Luling pointed to the order
of the court posted on the wall OF the
circuit clerks office.
Amidon said that did not count be-
cause he was not going out OF the build
ing and he picked up the file and walk
ed out Luling grabbed for a blank
attachment and made his pen fairly
fly. and when il was filed out Gauge
took it and started on the run for the
sheriff's Office.
Some of Colonel Sans friends saw
what was up and they slipped down
and told Sam and he made tracks fast
for the district clerks office before the
sheriff could get him. He got there.
i Then some of the boys said that
Judge Reed was just laying for some
of the attorneys who are careless with
the files and that If the sheriff had
found Sam outside of the district clerk S
Office with the files that it would have
cost him a fifty dollar William.

HE MUST NOW ANSWER.
Ed Ward on Trial in District Court for
Shooting Mc(iinty.

The men who are accused of snoot-
ing and robbing II. McGinty at his
home in Delano township last fall have
demanded separate trials and Edwin
Ward one Of the accused is now having
his hearing.
A jury was secured last evening and
evidence will be introduced by the
state today and it is not supposed that
tire trial will consume q great deal OF
time as there are but few witnesses to
examine.
Mr.. McGinty is quite an old man and
has a kindly intelligent face while
Ward is quite a young man and does
not appear to be over 20 years old.
Yesterday when the jury was being
examined Mr.. McGinty sat in one of
the big arm chairs inside the railing
while Ward sat next with two vacant
chairs between them.
The old man handled his wounded
arm carefully while Ward was not no.
ticed to turn once toward the old man.
Ward looks like an all-round young
tough and the two men furnished quite
a contrast in their appearance.
If there was the least malice in old
man McGinty's heart toward the man
who is accused of almost killing and
robbing him he did not show it. He
probably thought when he looked into
Wards face that the young man was
not sufficiently intelligent to realize
the enormity of the Offense with which
he is charged or perhaps he has no
knowledge of himself as to who COM
mitted the crime.
