in that time who have left, taking all
the money they could scrape togeth-

Yet the Nation has grown rich.
Other States have increased in popu-
lation and wealth-other neighboring
States. Missouri has gained nearly
100000 while Kansas has been losing
100000. Nebraska has gained in
wealth and population, while Kansas
has gone down hill. Colorado has
gained in every way, while Kansas
has lost in every way since 1888.
What is the matter with Kansas?
There is no substantial city in the
State. Every big town save one has
lost in population. Yet Kansas City,
Omaha, Lincoln, St. Louis, Denver,
Colorado Springs, Sedalia, DesM ONES,
the cities of the Dakotas, St. Paul and
Minneapolis-all cities and towns in
the west have steadily grown.
Take up the government blue book

A SARCASTIC CUSS,
An Editor Asks What's the Matter
with Kansas.
From the EmpOrjd Gazette.

From the Emporid Gazette.
To-day the Kansas department of
agriculture sent out a statement which
indicates that Kansas has gained less
than 1000 people in the last year.
There are about 125,O0O families in
the State, and there we're about 10000
babies born in Kansas, and yet so
many people have left the State that
the natural increase is]scut down to
less than 1900 net. This. has been
going on for eight years.
If there had been high brick wall
around the State eight years ago and
not soul had been admitted or per-
mitted to leave, Kansas would be half
million souls better off than she is
to-day. And yet the Nation has in
creased in population. In ten years
100000 people have been added to
the National population-yet instead
of gaining share of this-say 5OO,-
OOO-Kansas has apparently been a
plague spot, and in the very garden
of the world has lost population by
the ten thousands every year.
Not only has she lost population,
but she has lost wealth. Every mon
eyed man in the State who could get
out without great loss has gone. Eve
ry month in the year every community
sees some one who has little money
pick up and leave the State. This has
been going on for eight years. Money
is being drained out all the time. In
towns where ten years ago three or
four or half a dozen money-lending
concerns stimulating industry by fur
nishing capital there is now none, or
one or two that are looking after the
the principal and interest already out
standing.

Many and various are the discussions of
the "new woman" but most of the women
we've seen have no aspirations toward the
emancipation Of their sex from any yoke
except the burdensome yoke of ill health.
They all seem to think-and think rightly
that their proper field is their home, and to
work faithfully in this field she must be
strong and hearty. Care is peculiarly a
woman's heritage. But it was not the "nev
woman" or any other kind of woman that
we started out to talk about 1t is "man
in the case" this time, and man, too, that
thinks he is the newest kind of "new
man."
From what he tells US, he has good cause
to think so. There is no comparison between
his present state of feeling and that of two
years ago. But let the following speak for
itself. We published a few weeks ago O
statement of the miraculous cure of Mr.. J.
M. Foster, of Carriers Creek, now one of the
Herald's men, from locomotor ataxia IA dis
ease said to be incurable), by the use of DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
The account was read by numbers of peo-
pie who were eye-witnesses of his bodily suffer-
ing and who know what Mr.. Foster stated to
be true beyond peradventure of doubt !;
it was read by others. also, who believe it
just the same as if they, too, had seen ALL be-
cause Mr.. Foster is we'll known over the
country to be man of unimpeachable vera
city.
So strong is his belief in the DR.. Will
iams' Pills, he has influenced number of
other people to use them, and all have be-
came as new persons.
One Of the number is young man of
Southport, Maury County, Tennessee, Mr..
N. F. Murphy. He is only twenty-one years
old, and being of rather a delicate constitu-
his life.
Young Murphy says he verify believes
that very few people Of any age or cline
have been called upon to endure the bodily
suffering which he has undergone.
In an interview with the Herald, he told
us the following, which we give in his own
words:
Give years ago l was attacked with a
severe spell of la grippe, which affected me
very much. However, with the summer

the occasion of his birthday. They
were given royal reception and the
