The Annual Election of the Various
Lodges Held This Week.
The knights of Pythias lodges in To-
peka held their annual election of officers
this week. AS the meeting of the Grand
lodge is to be held in Topeka next year

ing officers.
The results of the elections were as

on, because public sentiment leans to
the side of the strikers. The law was
not enforced literally when railroad
trains were stolen because public senti
ment leaned to the side of the men who
took the trains. In the eye of the law
those men were thieves, but the public
did not account them 80. There are
laws that cannot be enforced when a
community is opposed to their enforce
ment.-Salins Republican.
Imagine the result at Chicago last
summer if state and national authorities
had said: "Ws can't enforce the law
against the strikers. Local public senti-
ment in Chicago is in favor of the
strike" Probably Chicago would have
been burnt to the ground, and hundreds
of people killed. Gov. Morrili's posi-
ton is such that all the enemies of law
and order are encouraged, and there is
no telling where law breaking will stop.

TO have as many saloons as she has and
then we would be prosperous. AS pros
porous as Leavenworth, we suppose
There isn't dry goods store in Leaven-
worth to compare with at least three in
Topeka. Leavenworth is a dead town,
fall of ramshackle buildings. Whisky
doesn't revive it. There isn't hotel in
Leavenworth fit to go to. When the
WOmen's Social Science federation was
held at Leavenworth the visiting ladies
were warned by the Leavenworth ladies
not to go to the so-calIed hotels, as they
had indecent regulations.

''Oh, wrap the flag around me, boys;
To die were far more sweet,
With freedoms banner DER me, boys,
To be my winding sheet"
The colonel gently beat time on tne
railing with his long, lean hand His
eyes grew retrospective. How it all
comes back!" he murmured half aloud
81 can see the watchfres, the long rows
Of tents glistsning in the moonlight, the
Equadrons wheeling down the hill, the
artillery masslng in the valley, the sig
nal rockets piercing the sky. I can hear
the bugle''-
He broke off suddenly. The major
had risen and was facing him, his dark
eyes blazing, his face white and drawn.
Don't bring it up, colonel" he said
hoarsely. Il can't tell you how it makes
me feel. Do you suppose that I, too, do
not go back to those days, to all suf-
fered then and since? I have repressed
my emotions for years. But the volcano
is here, . touching his breast. ''I do not
wish it to break forth. -
Its great idea, replied the colo
mel testify, eff cannot speak of night
scene in the late war without your fetch
ing me up so roundly I did not dream
you had so bad temper, sir. -
My temper is as even as yours sir, -
retorted the major, but can It you see it
is hard enough for me to witness these
scenes today without having the whole
CHASTITY panorama again unfolded before
me by your thOughtlessness, sir?''
The colonel lost his cad. "Damme, :"
he cried, you rebels never like to hear
anything for your good!'
81 beg your pardon, sir, said the
major with ominous calmness, ''did you
apply that term to me?''
81 did,
81 am not rebel, SIR choked the
major. 81 fought for hopeless sub
lme-cause. But now I support the
same flag you fought under. Remember
thatl After this, of course, we will not
have the honor of each others acquaint-
ance, 3" and with a naughty bow the
major walked into the hotel.
The colonel thumped his cane on the
floor of the piazza. His face flushed.
''Devilish hot headed southerner, - he
said, land yet a charming fellow
What a companion he has been to mel
What game Of cribbage he Played
And now to go and spoil everything.
Dear, dear; it's too bad. How shall

The Ohio Republicans could just as
we'll have said what they meant in re-
gard to silver, but they did not choose to
do so, hoping, perhaps, that they could
continue to befuddle the voters. That
kind of a platform may do for Ohio this
year, but it will not do for the country
next year. The party that shall carry
the country must say what it means in
its platform. The party which does not
declare for silver will be regarded by the
people as against it and against their in
terests. Straddles, evasive and reversi-
bic platforms will not do. The issue is
clearly defined and the English language
is adequate. A platform like that of the
Ohio Republicans, that can be construed
to mean silver in one locality and to
mean gold in another, will not command
enough votes to elect a president

THROUGH THE SANDHILLS.
Hutchinson Building a Clay Road Over
the FathomIess Sands.

Hutchinson Building Clay Road Over
the FathomIess Sands.
HUTCHINSON, Kan, May 3O.-Hutchin-
son people are building a wagon road
through the sandhills. Every town along
the Arkansas river finds communication
with the country southwark almost cut
off by range of sandhills until some
kind of road is built through them. In
some places hay is laid down, in others a
plank road is built At Hutchinson clay
is being used and the road is now nearly
done and will cost 81, 900.
The method of improvement is by
grading the high places and filling the
low ones, with the sand When the road
bed has been graded, q top of heavy clay,
which packs almost as hard as stone, is
placed upon it. On the south end blue
clay is used. while on the north end a
bank of yellow clay is being utilized. Il
is the hauling of this clay that consti-
tutes the chief item of expense. When
finished the road is first class in every
particular, affected neither by dry nor
wet weather.

GREAT fear is manifested BY
'sound money" theorists that it is
impossible to maintain a parity be-
tween gold aud silver at a ratio
of Is to 1 under free and unrestricted
coinage of both metals. Perhaps they
are right. Let it be granted that they
are right. What then? There is the
same remedy that has always been ap-
piled. Put less gold in the gold dollar.
1t has been done by the country before,
there is no reason why it should not be
done again, Whenever it becomes nee
essary to readjust the ratio between the
two metals common sense dictates that
the change should be made in the gold
coins, because there are fewer of them.
ANY alteration could make no difference
whatever in our foreign trade, because
balances are paid in weighed metal, re-
gardlsss of what stamp there is on it.

golden bright, and she listens to the
wonderful tale of the search for Haydees
hidden treasure and that last dreadful fight
on the sands of Morocco. And, while she
listens, more and more she sees the re-
semblance between the two brothers-only
that Dana is darker and more quiet, almost
shy in manner; for he has not that eager,
nervous look of his brother, that look that
suggests a restless, almost unhappy spirit
and more and more she grows to like his
gentle low-toned voice and mild yet in
telligent eye. And deeper and deeper in love
with his beautiful companion falls the
hitherto unimpressionable Dana.
Just as they near the conservatory door,
it opens and down the steps come Nat
allie and Arthur, and ON the Princess finger
shines the signet-ring of Haydee and around
her neck CLEANS the necklace of pearls and
the soft light of love is in her eyes.
Thus they stroll up the long, broad walk,
those happy four, two by two, arm in arm,
and where yonder noble oak spreads its
gnared and leafy branches, they slowly
turn and so pass out of sight

the vertebre of his neck down INTO his body,
so that, completely collapsed, he was
crushed to the earth as il by the mighty
hammer of pile-driver. while Nebbitt felt
! the rapid bullet from his discharging pistol
burn his own cheek like hot iron.
Although he could have done so more than
once, Arthur Fairfax refrained from trans
fixing either of his two men, as he would,
then, lose his sword and thus be weaponless
against the other. However, nerved to des-
peration by that frightful yell of Nebbtt
he made hasty lunge forward and passed
the blade completely through the larger fel-
low; then, quick as a fash, struck outward
with his left foot suddenly tripping up the
other, who fell sprawling to the ground.
Before the man could spring to his feet,
Fairfax whipped out his revolver and shot
him through the head
The remaining four Italians, finding them
selves now outnumbered, turned and fed
towards their boats Just as Fairfax was
crying out: LET them gol Don't follow

ly turned and fired his pistol. With sharp
cry, Dana dropped TO the ground.
