fair his French coach horses won 10
prizes, including seven frsts, and his

A master in the art of writing, Mr..
Fiske unites in his lectures persuasive

st. Johnsbury has the promise of four
lectures from Mr.. Fiske sometime this

A GOOD WATER COOLER.

Many people are afraid to drink ice
water, not only for the reason that it is
too cold for them, but because ice is not
always pure. The Crescent Cooler is
just the thing. 1t is so arranged that
the water is cooled by the ice without
having the ice put into it. We use one
in our Office and find it great comfort.
1t is very useful water cooler.

OUGHT TO GO HOME AND STAY THERE.
Topeka State journal (Rep.), May goth.

Rev. A. S. Embree preached sermon to
large congregation on Resistance of Evil" at
the First Methodist church, yesterday, which
was partly on Governor Morrill,, also. AS near
as the reporter could take down Mr.. Embree's
words Che would not permit them to be taken
from his written sermon) they were as follows:
"Faith consists in doing something, not like
Governor Morrill, sitting around and waiting
till the sentiment of the people in certain
spot is worked up to the right point.
cit is time that the people had something
besides characterless man as chief executive.
We need one who will 60 at it with gloves off
and enforce the law. 1 am not ready to say
that in Leavenworth the prohibitory law can be
entirely enforced, but tits the chief executives
place to do all in his power to have it done.
"He has worked for this Office for nearly
three years, and he knew if we gave it to him
just what the oath of Office required and the
people expected.
'He has gone around throwing dust in the
peoples eyes, and thus gaining thousands of
votes by posing as Christian man and the old
est Sunday school superintendent in the state,
and the people had right to suppose that he'd
enforce the law.
"He has kept none of his promises to the
people, his friends or his political constituents
In fact, he has pleased no one but the whisky
men and his political enemies.
"We have right to be heard, and hope
YOU people will make such buzzing around
the governors head that he will 60 home to
Hiawatha, and stay there, or that he will 90 to
work and do what he'd promised"
To Journal reporter DR.. Embree said, in an
interview: "Mr. Morrill, sought the Office Of
governor diligently for three years. He is an
old Kansan, fully acquainted with Kansas laws
and conditions, and knew exactly what would
be required of him if elected. Thus far, his
administration is painful surprise. What can
we say but that we are Disappointed What
can we do but declare our dissatisfaction and
call for reform1"

REFORM in Kansas politics seems to have
meant looting the public treasury. .--Atchison
Champion (Rep.)
If Brother Felt had said, Redeeming Kansas
seems to mean looting the treasury, he would
have told the truth. 1t was his intention, how
ever, to slap the Populists. He knows full we'll
that his inference is misleading. All sorts Of
charges have been preferred against Populist
officials, but not one has been proven None
of the states money was used by Governor
Lewelling prior to his Inauguration, and he
used none of it illegally after he became gov
ernor. Not single Populist official has been
found guilty of having misappropriated any of
the states funds. No useless offices were Great
ed to make room at the pie-counter for horde
of hungry ofice-seekers. 1t is true that there
was some investigating of Republicans at the
beginning of the Populist administration, but
it amounted to very little compared with the
so-called Investigations which now occupy the
time and attention of the committees which
were appointed simply because there were not
enough offices to go round, and jobs had to be
created in order stop the noise of the hungry
coyotes, better known as 'redeemers." Editor
Felt knows there is no truth in his inference,
but he has indulged in several severe criticisms
of the infamous Leland-Morrill gang, and he is
afraid that if he doesn't say something mean
about the Populists once in while, he will
lose caste among the Republicans.

IT is believed by many that if Governor
Morrill, would appoint the same kind of a police
board in Leavenworth, Atchison and Wichita
that he has in Topeka, that the law would be
enforced just well in those cities as it is here
To be sure, he might not get as many votes in
those towns as he did last fall in case he should
be re-nominated. A falling off in the deposits
of his Leavenworth bank might follow such
course.-Topeka State Journal.

GOLD.

Gold! gold! gold!-here and there and every
where! For year past (according to the very
veracious metropolitan press), gold has turned
up in all sorts of unexpected places, and if one
were the least bit credulous, he might have be-
lieved, from reports, that gold is likely to be-
come as plentiful as iron. Gold in the south; !;
gold in the north; gold in the Rockies; gold in
the Alleghaneys; and now, to cap the climax,
there is gold in the oceans-not little gold,
but whole tons of it.
The backbone of the silver movement is
broken by the discoveries of such quantities of
gold. Gold will soon be the cheap money, and
it may even become "fat" money, "unsound'
money and dishonest money.
But, there are breakers ahead. There is
danger of the formation of a colossal syndi-
cate that will pump the oceans dry and deluge
the earth, and, in anticipation, we have spoken
for the ark and the topmost peak of Mount
Ararat, where Noah landed.

DO YOUR OWN THINKING.

"When the masses think, kings tremble."
The rule holds good in republics. The in
telligence of the masses is the only check upon
the career of the political scoundrel. The po-
litical boss never fears the 'vote- 'er-straight"
voter, and for whom he has but little respect.
The "vote- er-straight" voter is political clod,
made up of ignorance and prejudice. Think
ing leads to investigation, and investigation
leads to independence of either the boss or the
party, if they be wrong. The unthinking voter
never discovers wrong; or if, coupled with
prejudice, a wrong is discovered, prejudice
serves as an inseparable barrier to independent
action. The unthinking, prejudiced voter is,
therefore, willing tool of the corrupt and
scheming politician. AS kings live and fatten
where ignorance prevails, SO do corrupt and
bad laws prevail in republics where the voter is
ignorant or prejudiced.
Voters, do your own thinking, and there will
be fewer bosses and better government.

THE railroad companies, it seems, have de-
cided to violate or ignore the only law affecting
railroads passed by the last legislature. 1t is
"unconstitutional''-so says one of the railroad
officials. Well, it makes little difference, since
the law gave free transportation to shippers of
stock, and, if obeyed, it might have been
stretched to cover the carloads of ring politi-
clans that are constantly clamoring for free
transportation.

GOVERNOR MORRILL, is something of hu-
morist He was in Leavenworth few days
ago, looking after the interests of his national
bank (Which is so literally patronized by the
saloonists of that city,, and, in a conversation

Atherton is an old soldier, and blind in one
eye, which made him wobble in his walk, and
that he was not drunk, as charged. Being
blind in one eye, of course he couldn't get onto
the street-car; and of course that is the reason
why he insulted the young lady. Hereafter,
when we hear of any of Atherton's misdeeds,
we'll remember that he is bling in one eye and
let it pass.
