There are three weeks left for the high

quarters formerly occupied by G. H.
Waite's shoe store until next April, has
sold the lease to the F. B. F. Grocery
company, they to take possession Septem-
Der 1. AS some repairing will have to be
done and considerable additional shelf
room provided, the F. B. F. will probably
not open their new quarters for business
much before October. This will bring
this .enterprising firm into the business
heart Of the village and give them larger
and better quarters.
Mr.. Glynn will make Saxtons River his
rendezvous exclusively. He has leased
the quarters formerly occupied by G. l..
Glynn, and by removing partition will be
able to make one large and convenient
store which will be run on the general COM
bination plan. Mr.. Glynn is hustler and
manages to do his share of the business
although the electric road did not material
ize, and he still has to buy axle lubricator.

THE WISE MEN OF KANSAS.
A Fable With a Moral.

1t was near the close of the nineteenth
everywhere there was great de-
preston. Railroads could not pay divi-
dends, values were shrunken, money was
idle, labor unemployed. The well-to-do
could not make profits, the poor could not
pay their debts, and everybody was
gloomy and sad. Each man as he met his
neighbor would solemnly say in the Ian
guage OF the Hon. James Fadden. "What
TELL" and moodily pass on.
Then there arose the wise men of Kan
sas. They were mighty in their day with
honeyed words they beguiled the people.
They painted in colors of night the oppres-
sion Of labor and the sufferings of poverty.
They pictured in hues that paled the morn
ing's rosy glow, the delights OF luxury and
the blessings of wealth.
Frenzied by the Intoxicating dream they
exclaimed, Wherefore are we not all
richp Go to now! Let us abolish poverty.
Let us legislate ourselves into afluence. -
And the people heard and were smitten
with the delicious madness.
Then the governor assembled the wise
men in special session and thus addressed
them:
"Most noble, brave and mighty yeomen,
our pe ople groan. The burden is heavy
upon them. Early and late they toll and
eat the bread of disappointment and bit
terness. Make we laws for their deliver
ance.
1--WE are the greatest state in the Union.
We are big enough and rich enough to
have a policy OF our own regardless of
what other states may do or may not do
Let us be patriotic A Kansas policy for
Kansans is the need of the hour. Wheat
is hard to raise and the yield is light and
uncertain but we are great on corn. The
notion that the price must be governed by
the law of supply and demand is a super
stition by means of which the rich plumber
and Cypress honest toll. Make We, there
fore, a law in accordance with which sover-
eign and august statute corn shall be put
upon par with wheat. They shall be in
Interchangeable bushel for bushel. and the
price of corn shall be the same as the price
of wheat. Do this. and the people of Kan

1t was with these pathetic lines that Mr..
Pence OF Colorado closed his great speech
delivered at the recent populist convention:
In want and hunger and cold,
That one may live in luxury aud lie
Wrapped in its slken fold,
The ninety and nine in their novels bare,
The one in luxury rich and rare;
They toll in the fields, the ninety and nine,
For the fruits of our mother earth.
They dig and delve in the dangerous mine,
TO bring its treasures forth,
But the wealth released by these sturdy blows,
To the hands of the one forever flows"

The Only Ensy Place.

Insurance against the dishonesty of
employees is n recognized feature of
modern commercial life. One of the
great corporations carrying on this
business published an estimate of the
amount lost in the year 1894 by em-
bezzlement and defalcation. The total
loss for the year was put at the enor-
nous sum of 25,Ooo,ooo. Immense as
this sum is, it does not include the
losses, undoubtedly large in the aggre-
gate, which have never been made pub
Elic by the individuals or firms defraud-
ed. It is far from encouraging, says
the New York Ledger, to note also that
this estimate shows an increase of
about $7,000.000 over the previous year.
Most of this kind of stealing is done
by men of good education and at least
fair opportunities for honest success.
The real cause is the too prevalent haste

Beecher, in reply, after warning the
