Our States Enemies.

to make Mexican silver dollars legal
tender in Kansas. If the new legisla.
ture can't do it there will be no use
for any other to try it.-Tribune,

1t is just such little, contemplate
filings as the above, written in malice
and conceived in disappointment. and
without the first mblance Of a founr
dalton in fact, that the eastern enemies
of Kansas are looking for. The east1
ern papers, jealous of the industrial
and commercial advance Kansas has
made over all competitors and in.spite
of the fools she has nourished, will
eagerly snap up such morcels of scam
dial as the Tribune dishes mp and en-
large upon them and SOW them broad
cast where they think they will injure
the state.
Several Kansas daily papers pub
lished the item copied above, but they
had the fairness to publish strong
denial In connection Herewith. But
the soured, disappointed and chronic
misrepresentation of the newspaper
fraternity of Great Bend was willing
to repeat the vile SANDER, and do it in
way that gives it the appearance of
truth.
We believe time will come when
Kansas people will refuse to longer
support such defamers, and we hope
the time will come soon. Our ene-
mics abroad are not half so bad as our
constituencies, treacherous enemies
at home.

POLITICAL NOTES.

Georgians. who claim to be well informed, say
that neither Hoke Smith nor Ex-Speaker Crisp
will be the next Senator from that State. Smith
was born in North Carolina and Crisp in Eng.
land. which are among the reasons against them.
The lucky man is likely to be Fleming du
Bignon. of Savannah, popular young lawyer
and radical sound-money man.
Senator Quay seems to be putting in most
of his time in making reconciliations. This
time it is with Gov. Hastings, of Pennsylvania.
Senator Blackburn has made Chas. j. Bron-
ston his principal lieutenant in his campaign
for reelection.
Representative John Allen, the inveterate
joker of the House, has gone back to Missi5-
sippi TO fix up his fences for Senator. Prob
ably he will lose all sense of humor after his
election. Most Senators seem to.
