ssENDLESs CHAIN'' BALLOT.
A Case of Tt Said to Have Been Dis
covered in Topeka

There has been more or less excite
ment over the discovery of official Au-
stralian ballots in the hands Of men
who were not connected with the cleo
ton boards Both parties claimed that
the other intended to practice fraud and
extra ballots were printed for that pur-
pose.
The first of these ballots captured
was secured from man named Roper,
who claimed that he received it in a let
ter, though he refused to say from
whom the letter came or show it to
any one. The ballot had on the back
the initials r. "A. r." which were those
of r. A Randlett, who was judge at
one of the polling places in the Second
ward, and who marked the ballots with
his initials as they were handed to the
voters.
Roper is a Democrat and he turned
the ballot over to D. c. TilOtson of the
silver committee. c. E Purviance also
secured possession of another ballot
marked in the same manner.
Both men claim that the ballots were
given out to be used in working the end
less chain scheme on voters. That is,
the ballot would be marked properly
and then given to the voter who would
substitute the fraudulent ballot for the
one given him by the judge Of the cleo
ton, and vote the fraudulent ballot
taking the blank ballot back to the FIX
err who would mark it and turn it over
to another voter to be used in the same
manner
County Clerk McCabe, who had
charge Of the ballots before they We're
turned over to the election board said
when asked about the reported charges
Of fraudulent voting;
NO one could have secured one of the
tickets unless he stole it, or it was given
to him by Mr.. Randlett. I do not know
what this means, but I intend to make
a thorough investigation, and [ viii find
out if possible where these ballots came
from
The result of the returns in Topeka
do not indicate that any Republicans
did any fraudulent voting There is
probably nothing in the charge that Of
fetal ballots were given out by the Re
publcans.

PEOPLE DRESS TOO WE'LL.
DR.. Judson Says Churches Should
Work on the Same Line as
Saloons

New York, Nov. 5.-''Persons who go
to church dress too we'll They spend
too much money in the erection of cost
" church buildings instead of building
many smaller ones Churches are kept
open too few hours in the week"
Briefly, these were the declarations OF
the Rev JudsOn, who presided last
night in the JudsOn Memorial church,
Washington Square.
DR.. Judson took for his subject, THE
Saloon the Poor Mans Church" He
said there is in most church congrega-
lions a. scarcity of men, and one com
pensatiOn for this is that in the sa-
looms there is a scarcity of women
The churches" said Dr.. Judson,
should work on the same lines as the
saloons. Every evening there should be
a place where a man can go and spend
his time pleasantly
In the Fifteenth assembly district"
said he, there are % blocks, 10000 per
sons, 1O1 saloons. and only nine church
es. NO one refuse to go into a saloon be-
cause he is not well enough dressed,
though many refuse to go into a church
for this reason. What a help it would
be if church-gOeTs would attend in
their everyday attire"

sTAND UP FoR KANsAs

Throughout the campaign which has
just closed the people Of Kansas have
been assured by a certain element that
if only a continuation of the gold stand
ard could be assured prosperity would
sweep over the country like a great
wave Of the sea
Now that the gold standard has been
indorsed and its continuance is assured
it is noticed with regret that its advo-
Gates are still dissatisfied and unhappy.
They have already set up loud and
vociferous lament about the ruin and
utter desolation which has been visited
upon the state by the election of Doster
and Leedy.
Tt is being urged that the credit of
Kansas people has been destroyed, that
nobody viii loan or invest a dollar in
the state. that the mortgages viii all be
foreclosed and that the workingmen of
the state will become tramps and beg
CARS This is no fancy. sketch. This kind
of talk can be heard constantly on the
streets of Topeka.
Must Kansas always be afflicted by a
set OF calamity howlers2 Are these the
people who have a right to complain
any way?
Was it not these same advocates Of a
gold standard who nominated Mr.. Nor
rill over the protests of a large element
of the party to which he and they be
longed2
Was it not these same adherents of
the gold cause who insisted on exchang-
ing a non-partfsan chief justice of the
supreme court for a partisan one2
Now that they have made the change
they seem afraid that the chief justice
elect win give them what they voted for
in convention partisan administra-
ton of the office.
For the sake of a long suffering people
let this ill-omened talk stop. If contin-
ued it viii not take long for it to reach
ali over the Union, and the result
might verify their predictions.
Let US as a people stop whining, get
down to business, stand up for Kansas
and be prepared to meet and share in
the promised prosperity when it ar
rives.

ONE IN EVERY FOUR.
One Person in Every Four Suffers
From Piles

About one person in every four suf-
fers from some form of rectal disease.
The most common and annoying is
itching piles, indicated by warmth
slight moisture and intense, uncontroI-
liable itching in the parts affected.
The usual treatment mas been some
simple ointment or salve which some
times gives temporary relief, but Moth
ing like a permanent cure can be ex-
pected from such superficial treatment.
The only permanent cure for itching
piles yet discovered is Pyramid Pile
cure, not only for itching piles, but
for every other form of piles blind,
bleeding or protruding. The first ap-
plicatiOn gives instant relief and the
continued use for a short time causes
a permanent removal of the tumOrs or
the small parasites which cause the
intense itching and discomfort OF itch
ing piles
Many physicians for long time sup
posed that the remarka bic relief afford
ed by the Pyramid Pile Cure was be-
cause it was supposed to contain CO
caine, opium or similar drugs. but such
is not the case A recent careful analy-
sis Of the remedy showed it to be alb
solutely free from any cocaine, opium, or
in fact any poisonous, injurious drugs
whatever. Sold by druggists at 80
cents per package.

SHOULD BE NO DISTURBANCE

One particularly fortunate cireum-
stance ia connection with the election Oh
Mr.. Mckinley lies in the fact that not
ripple on the surface of the business sit
uation is likely to result from the
change of administration. After the
hearty Endorsement Of the Cleveland
policy in which he INDUCED in one Of
his recent speeches at Canton, it is rea-
sonable to suppose that that policy will
be continued without material altera-
ton.
Although it cannot be said that any
large degree OF prosperity has attended
the Cleveland administration it is prom
ised by the president-elact and by his
friends for him that there viii be a re-
vival of tagging industries as the result
of renewed confidence. The people will

much desired result shall be accom-

ed to follow Mr.. McKinley's induction

are necessarily somewhat remote and

there viii be an opportunity for re-
stored confidence to have full play
1t will be lucky if the newly elected
president shall find congress in ac-
cord with his views so that the country

complexion of the executive and Iegis-
lative branches Of the government. The
country win wait patiently and serenely
