La Grippe Is Coming.

There are several wellIdeveloped cases of
the oid-time grip in the city, and 1T is
feared that an epidemic is coming. DR.. j.
T.. Boyd says la grippe is prevalent in the
East and will, in Ell probability. reach
here. He says there is a great difference
between la grippe and Influenza, the former
affecting the nervous system and the latter
attacking the air passage only. La grippe
is the more dangerous of the two. The cold
weather reduces the liability of an cpl
demic, but the disease ragged in Russia in
the SeYerest weather. 49,

ler) be nominated and elected to the
Office of county clerk" We have no
objection to the VOICE or the public
forming whatever opinion of our mo-
tives in thus dealing with this case
that they think the evidence at hand
may justify.
The VOICE commends the New
Era for its fearless exposition Of
rottenness and corruption at the
county seat, and is glad to see that
it is not afraid to speak out against
its own fellow citizen, Mr.. Sadler.
Mr.. Sadler'S claims of innocence,
however, are false. He came to see
Mr.. Maddy two or three times and
finally persuaded him to keep out OIL
the race for the nomination by as
surfing him Of the deputyshiP. He af-
terward made promise in presence
of witnesses to discharge Mr.. Maddy
in order to prevent the Standard and
its following from opposing him al
election. Mr.. Maddy has confirmed
this heretofore and Mr.. Sadler will
not deny it to him, for he told him
the story out of his own mouth.
This was a clear violation Of the
spirit of the law under which Faurot
was tried.
We wonder if the Republicans Of
Sumner county will endorse Sadler
and at the same time consign Faurot
to oblivion.
TIE above from the New Era was
shown to Mr.. Maddy and he was
asked if he had anything to say. He
replied: "Not now; | am a candi-
date"

There's not field in Sumner township with
with some good corn In IL;
The stalks are almost twelve feet tall,
The ears are large according,
The rains keep coming just In time
To keep the ears growing.
The sunflowers are enormous size, =
With branches large and long;
"SOl" does refuse TO give his light,
Beneath the branches thick and strong.
At monday when the sun is high,
The owls boot and scream;
The f-e-flies shed their silvery light,
And the nightingale is queen.
The farmer who sits down to rest
Beneath their leafy lows,
Knows well that In this glorious soil O
He runs his sulky pillow.
That nature which produced this growth,
Without mans aid and skin.
Will yield harvest for his toll
His empty bins TO fill.
Hurrah for the old state OF Kansas.
With its hot winds. dreuth and rain,
For its orchards full, its garden spots.
And lis wonderful fields OF grain.

Little "RnQIetS" from the South Haven
New Era,

The appointment OF Orle Morse
as superintendent of the Hutchinson
refOrmatory is about as sensible a
thing as electing an avowed infdel
superintendent of Sunday school.
While not posing as prophet nor
the son of prophet, we predict the
greatest political surprise party this
fall that has ever struck Sumner
county. The people want half
show at least for their white alley,
and they know they don't get it
under ring rule.
If the apologists and defenders of
Henderson and Woodcock in the
Nutting case would take the pains 10
interview some of the leading citizens
Of Hunnewell along lines on which
the New Era has commented, they
would find that the half has not been
told; and then the Strip opening
business My, how Orie, that apos-
tie of righteousness, does catch it.
But then it ought to all be hushed
up, because he is one of US, and a
big one at that, and the time has
come when the sons-of-guns of Sum-
ner county must stand together or
60 under.
We neglected last week to mention
an agreeable visit we had a few days
ago with j. G. Carson, anti-ring candi-
date for sheriff. Joe Carson is a good
man, of excellent qualifications for
the pOSitiOn-but he has taken his
political life in his hands by opposing
the power that be. Already the path
is marked out Through slaughter
house to an open grave" Mr.. Carson
is making an up-tO-date canvass and
is bold fighter. Oxford Register.
Mr.. Carson may be playing the
part of principal in political funeral
procession, but it will certainly be
no credit to his party if he is slaugh-
tered because Of his being opposed
to the Wellington ring. If he is de-
feated on such grounds, the man who
gets the nomination over him on &C,
count of his tender feelings for the
ring will have rocky road to travel,
and we have no good grounds for
believing otherwise than that he will
in the final roundup in November
be driven down to the same path
through a slaughter house to an
open grave"
1t is reported here that some Of oul
Wellington party friends have given
the Register credit for having stirred
up the old ring prejudice again They
are mistaken. We only published
what is common talk outside of We'll

Speaking OF the Sadler matter the
South Haven New Era saws:

must say it was very cenSurable act,
and one not calculated toinspire great
confidence in the one who did it. Mr..
