TOPLOFTY TOPEKA.

The Topeka papers are squeahng be-
cause of the prodding their town has
been receiving at the hands of Atchi-
son, LeavenwOrth and Wichita papers
This peccavi cry is being taken up by
cuckoo journals, which out of their
abundant sympathy have taken it upon
themselves in turn to criticise the prod
ders. The abundantly attested fact is
that the proddees invited just what
they are getting too much of. They
have not only held Topeka to be holy
but INDUCED in invidious comparisons.
"Comparisons are odiouS," especially
to the victims. For many weary
months AtchisOn, LeavenwOrth and
Wichita were the victims of the most
unfair criticisms and malicious mis-
representations of Topeka people and
papers. To have listened TO them one
would have been led TO believe that
the the three cities named were seeth-
ing sinks of iniQuity. That impress
sion yet largely obtains among the
readers Of the Topeka papers. The
truth is Kansas communities average
very closely for intelligence, sobriety
and morality. Touching the matter
of the violation of the prOhibitory law,
per capita, as our Pop friends would
put it. there is no difference in the
quantity or quality Of the liquors con-
sumed by Wichita and Topeka. If
there is Il difference in the price of that
furnished by a drug store and that of
the joint, the difference goes to the city
in the way of revenue. All that To
peka has to do to relieve herself of the
unpleasant prodding is TO let up on the
elongation of her face, give her mouth
a more lateral pull and cease her
Iugrubious cant of Il am holier than
thou"

fail to oppose it they fall short of their
duty. There should be more clergy

TURN ON THE SCREW.

The fact that Premier Meline Of France
Is in favor Of bimetalhsm and that he has
so declared himself in public will encour-
age international bimetallists, but there
Is really no encouragement in it for the
cause of bimetallism. International BIZ
metall.sm depends for success upon the
action of England, but England will never
give its consent to the restoration OF silver
unless driven to it through the adoption
Of silver coinage by the United States or
some other great commercial nation. The
best way TO drive England to bimetallisn
is to open the minis OF the United States
to the unrestricted coinage OF silver and
gold at the ratio of 10 TO L That would
give this country such an advantage over
England commercially that the latter
would hasten to throw open its minis also.
The thing for the friends Of silver coinage
to do in this country is to throw aside all
consideration of what Europe may say
or think and act Independently. II the
United States would open its mints TO
the unrestricted coinage of silver and gold
practical bimetallism for the whole world
would soon be established.-Denver Re
