have no Mr.. Helms among them They
are not pandering TO the Prohibition
vote today. They renounce it
Now is this the time for the Repubn-

elected by Republican voters, disgust

STAND BY THE BOYS.

Stand by those boys on the Republic
can ticket Stand by Charles Hatton
and Henry Schad and Harry Gordon
and the rest of them. You know where
they stand on the Prohibition ques-
ton. You do not know where the
candidates who are opposing them
stand on that question. Those boys
have stood up and fought the state Re
publican administrations for years, for
swearing state patronage, alternating
hopes of state influence, and being
snubbed by state officials.
Why? Why should they allow them
| selves to be snubbed and deceived and
insuIted by Republican state officials
| Why didn't they leave the Republican
| party for good? Because the Repub-
! Hcan party is not confined TO Topeka.
Because the leaders Of the Republican
party are not Morrill, and Dawes. Be
cause the leaders of the Republican
party are Tom Reed. William McKin-
| lev and Ben Harrison and men like
| them. Because the national Republi-
can party is big enough to hold all
men and not restricted to the narrow
imbecilities Of Topeka, Shawnee coun-
ty, Kansas Because they are men
who fought on the Republican side,
| most of them, during the war. Be
cause the Republican party gave the
country good times and every man in
dividual prosperity. That is why they
remained Republicans. That is why
when Humphrey, the poor crank. in
suited the boys that they came back
home Republicans to fight against
Prohibition. Why didn't they go into
the Democratic party TO fight Prohi-
bition? Where is the Democratic par
ty of Kansas? Where is its candi-
date for chief justice of Kansas to-
day? Where are its candidates usually?
Tied to some st-ProhibitioniSt's
coat-tail. They are Republicans still.
Insulted and misused and jeopardized
by Morrill, they are still Republicans.
Stand by them, whether you are a
Republican or not. Everyone Of them,
If a delegate TO Republican conven-
ton would vote against the nomina
ton of Morrill,. Everyone of them, if
in the legislature, would vote against
Prohibition. Everyone of them would
vote TO give Wichita home rule.
Everyone Of them if governor Of Kan
sas would give Wichita home rule, and
not like Lewelling refuse to abolish
the tyrannous police commission for
the sake of furnishing Rufe Cone a
job. Everyone of them is a true-blue
anti-Prohibitionist. The candidates
against them are nothing if not Pro-
hibitionists, for none has dared express
himself. Stand by the boys. They,
as Republicans Of Sedgwick county,
have never got down on their knees To
the Prohibftionists like the Mr.. Helms
on the Populist tickets. They have
never swerved once in their faithful
ness to the people of this city and
county. They have never denied home
rule for Wichita for the sake of fixing
a nest for themselves. They have
never piled up Prohibition costs
against the county as Dave Dale did
as county attorney.
Stand by them. Smash Morrill, him
self when the time comes, but this year
stand by the boys.

LATE CUBAN NEWS.

Havana. July 7.-General Andrews,
commander of the troops here, reviewed
four companies of the battalion OF
America this morning and the troops
subsequently left for the province OF
Santa Clara.
1t is stated on good authority that there
is absolutely mo foundation for the story
published in the United States that Cap
tain General CampOs would advise the
Spanish government to abandon the task
of attempting to put down the insurgents
and leave the island of Cuba to it's fate.
On the contrary, the captain general is
disposed to lose the last man and spend
the last cent procurable in suppression of
the revolution.
News has been received from Nam
zanillo, which again confirms the report
of the death of AmadOr Guerra in the
fight in the neghbOrhOd of Manzamillo
His body has been fully identified.
Arambourado, an insurgent leader,
who recently surrendered to The Spanish
at Manzanillo, escaped and
raised another band of insurgents in the
Of Trinidad. He was pur-
sued by the troops, who caught up with
his followers and in the fight which fol-
lowed ArambOuradO was captured and
three of his band injured. On the side
of the troops one officer was wounded.
A small band of insurgents have appeared
in the district of SantO Domingo PROV
ince of Santa Clara, and It's members

ON the Missouri Pacific, which arrived
this evening from Marquette, 80 miles
southwest, state that the Smoky Hill
river at that place had overlooked its
banks on the south side, extending nearly
back to the bluffs, two miles distant. The
water is nearly to the second story of the
houses nearest the river and some of
the people have been taken out in boats.
The approaches to the Missouri Pacific
bridge are washed away and the bridge
itself is nearly off the abuttments. The
river has just commenced to rise here,
and it is expected before morning that it
will be out of its banks.
One hundred and four tourists ticketed

SAN MARCOS ITEMS.

San Marcos, Tex, July 6.-(Special.)-
San Marcos chautauqua opened ON the 4th
with about its usual attendance, which
has been increased daily. II. NJ. DuBose
superintendent, addressed the audience
yesterday in an able and convincing argu-
ment for sound money and in support of
the administration, and today we had
Congressman Bailey on silver, giving sat
lsfaction to the silver men. There have
been no breaks or disappointments in the
program. General Gordon will appear ON
the 18th and everything indicates a large
audience for him.
The summer normal, under Professor
Bruce, is doing finely and has a good at
tendance.
We are having fine weather and in a
few days, if it continues fair, farmers will
have their crops clean. An immense
CORN and small grain crop has been made,
and cotton is very fine.
The work on the United States fish
is progressing slowly. The ar
tesan well is 1900 feet deep and a flow
of about 5000 gallons of water day have
been obtained, but Mr.. Benton, the engi-
neer, contemplates sinking the weel deeper
for a greater flow.
San Marcos is full of strangers, and
business was never better at this season
of the year.

TO GET PURE WATER.
Editor Statesman:

| noticed in your editorial columns
several days ago your remarks on impure
water. | agree with you to the extent
that the quality might and should be i'm
proved, but L do not believe it carries
in suspension any bacteria, as there are
not now, or ever has been any towns OF
cities situated on the river above us to
polute it with sewerage matter or other
wise. The Colorado river has ever been
noted for its purity and healthfulness,
even from it's earliest days of use by
white settlers. Ships have traversed
many miles over the white capped waves
of the gulf to its mouth to supply their
storage tanks with fresh water for long
voyages in preference to other streams
perhaps more convenient 1t is very dis
agreeable, however. to have to use muddy
water, and it should be speedily remedied,
and | think the most perfect and mex
pensive way would be to put in Il small
plant at some suitable place on the river
bank above the old water works station
to be operated by electric power from the
cty's power house and connect it with
the nearest water mains. The supply
to be secured by n system of drive well
pipes driven well into the gravel and all
connected into our extended suction pipe
to be lowered sufficiently into the gravel
to avoid interference by overflow from
the river. 1t has been demonstrated by
experiments by the old water company
here that the sand bars of the river are
underlaid with an ineXhaustible supply
of pure, clear water, and that pipes driven
into that strata flow n steady stream to
a height on a level with the water in the
river. from which is its source Of supply,
and from this level the water will have to
be taken by suction.
This system, once established. could at
any time he extended at Il trilling cost
to meet all requirements.
Such plant used as an auxiliary to the
clear water plant recommended to be
erected at the power house by Mayor
Mcdonald would not cost exceeding Slo,-
600 and would serve the city us long as
kept in repair.
Yours very respectfully.
GEO. A. BRUSH.
