through the streets when the first
cold begins to touchs the air. The lighter
the cloak the more fashionable, If to this
can be added a loose cut
The pattern for the new street coats
is perfectly straight in the back and al
most straight on the sides. The front hangs
SO squarely up and down that it has a
more than straight look A first you do
not like it. for it gives fullness 10 the

Leaves the Democrats.

Col. w. P. Tomlinson, editor of the
Topeka Democrat, and one Of the old
war horses of the party, has left the
party, saying; ave do not expect ever
again to be q delegate to q Democratic
convention" Continuing he says:
Certainly not, while it is dominated
and absolutely controlled by gold bug
President, who plays the part Of des-
pot, and is able to hold as vsssSlS to
his will the great body Of the Demo
cratic party.
eve have our face turned toward
the great national silver convention to
be held July % In st. Louis. We in
tend to dedicate our best efforts from
this time on to the service of the silver
party, which has been conceived, we
think, from motives as patriotic and
lofty as ever led to the formation of a
political organization.
"Wessy goodbye at this time to the
Dem oCratic party, for which we have
lsbored unselfshly for fourteen years
In this city. We take this step, not
from any selfish consideration, but
from q sense Of DUTY. The conviction
has been forced upon US that the Dem
ocratic party, as represented by Grover
Cleveland, John G. Carlisle s. Co., is
unworthy of the support of any self
respecting silver Democrat in the
country. There is no hope left Of the
release of Democrats, as such, from the
money power. The false pilots, Grover
Cleveland ct a., have scuttled the ILL.,
fated Democratic craft. It Is doomed.
Under the pirate gOld.bug flag the
Cleveland Carlisle controlled Demo
cratic party Is certain to unfurl in the
coming campaign, it will meet with q
Waterloo defeat. 1t may not carry q
single State in the union. 1t will per-
ish from the earth"

can pump stop holes in jar from outside
with clean rags. With shallow vessel
(tin wash basin is goOd) one man dip
water into the jar while second keeps
pump slowly moving. In this way you
get out all the water, save the time lost
in hosting and lowering the bucket,
besides saving the time and muscle ex
pended on the water that enters the
well during the interim. Solid matter,
il any, can then be hoisted easily with
out splashing, the whole job done in
one-fourth the time with less muss and
expenditure Of muscle. Withdraw rags

misgivings as to what may be at the bot

Blackburn Almost Elected.

The Senatorial fight In Kentucky de-
Veloped considerable life Saturday
when Blackburn came within one vote
of being elected. Several Of the sound
money Democrats who had been voting
for Carlisle changed to Blackburn,
and he also received the votes Of Poor
and Burlington, the two REPRESENTATIVES.
elected by POpulist votes. When the
roll call and changes were all recorded
Blackburn lacked one vote. On this
ballot one or two sound money Demo
Gratis persisted in voting for Carlisle,
thus falling to improve what will prob
ably be the only opportunity to elect
Democrat. Several Republicans Of the
John Sherman type openly voted for
Carlisle, saying by way Of explanation
that If q sound money Republican
could not be elected they would vote
for a sound money Democrat. The
scene was one of the widest ever wit
messed in a legislative body. AS
number Of Republicans, including the
Speaker Of the House, announced their
intention Of voting for Carlisle, Repre-
sentative Lyon (Rep.) announced that
he would vote for Blackburn If that
was attempted. The session adjourned
until Monday, when the fight was re-
newed.

The following resolution adopted by
the Republican convention in Ar
kansas is said to relate the money
question, but no one, after reading
it, would suspicion that that was what 1t
referred to, as nothing Is said about it:
1--WE favor true bimetallism, with such re.
strictions and under such provisions, to be
determined by legislation, as will secure
the maintenance Of the parity Of values Of
the two metals, so that the purchasing and
debt-paying power of the dollar, whether
Of silver, gold or paper, shall be at all times
equal"

Freight Determinations.

The farmers of western Kansas were
always interested In an equitable sd-
justment of freight rates and have
from time to time done their best to
get the Legislature to act in the mat
ter, but nothing of any value has yet
been accomplished. Just now, how
ever, the exorbitant rates on corn to
the gulf is bringing the matter to their
attention in q very fOrcible way. That
these determinations exist, and always
have existed to greater or less extent,
is undeniable. The Wichita Eagle Of
recent date gives some figures on rates
which show how the rates are msnipu-
lated. These msnipulstiOns are always
In the interest of someone other than
the producer. The figures and rates
given by the Eagle are as follows:
"From Wichita to Galveston, 7O5
miles, the tariff rate Is 30 cents per 100
pounds, or 1892 cents per buShel. From
Wichita via Kansas City to Galveston,
978 miles, the rate is q cents per 100
pounds, or 1912 cents per bushel, the
railroads out of Kansas City absorbing
the ~ cents per bushel charged for
local haul from central Kansas to
Kansas City, under term they cali re-
billing.
"Cost Of shipping car Of 500 bushels
Of corn from central Kansas to Bslti.
more, 1850 miles, allowing l cent per
bushel for elevator charges and profits
In Kansas City, 1856.
"Cost Of shipping a car of 500 bushels
Of corn from central Kansas to New
York city, 1850 miles, allowing per
cent. for elevator charges and profits In
Kansas City, $95.
Cost Of shipping Car of corn, 500
bushels, from central Kansas to Gal.
weston, 7O5 miles, $1,000.
"C0st OF shipping q car OF 500 bushels
of corn from central Kansas to Calves
ton via Kansas City, 97S miles, $4,000.
IA difference Of 30 per car less via
Kansas City and additional mileage Of
27S miles.
1.-THE present tariff rates from Kan
BaS City to Galveston via Arkansas
City is 81 cents per 100 pounds, while
the tariff In effect on corn to Galveston
from ARkansss City is S214 cents per
100 pounds, or 8 cents per 100 pounds
more for the shorter haul than for the
longer haul.
"Give central Kansas points the
same rate per ton per mile to Calves.
ton az are now In effect from these
same points to New York and Balti-
more, the rate would be 10 cents per
100 pounds or S.4 cents per bushel,
which Is less than half of the present
rate.
Figuring the surplus corn Of the
State Of Kansas at 100000 bushels,
on this difference in rates it would
make Ola, $4,000 to the producers Of
the State. The excessive charges
would almost build q railroad from
Nebraska to the gulf in one year"
