Gleeson had materially aided Killeeu in

TRUE PATRIOTISM.

Wrapping the stars and stripes
around you, and singing We are march
ing through Georgia, "Is no test Of man
hood nor patriotism.
The man who is true patriot is as
loyal to his friends as hel to his coun-
try; and the man who is not true to his
friends has not power enough in him to
be true to his country.
Men have been elected to Office by
their friends who believed them to be
honest and truthful and the moment
they get the official robe around their
shoulders they forget their obligations
not only to their friends but to their
country. Their position throws them
into another element. They then look
through their official eye and turn their
backs to their friends and drift with
whom they come in contact from their
elevated standpoint.
But few men are elected to impor-
tant positions, who have the manhood
to carry out their promises to the peo-
pie, and faithfully look after the in
terest of the common voter; much less
their friends who placed them In the
position they hold. The voters of Kan
sas are now looking over the state
searching for material to fill many inn
poItant positions, not only in the state
but IN the United States.
In choosing these men it will be well
to consider the disposition and general
make up of every individual, and see
that their individual ideas are in accord
with the platform.
The responsibility of our future sue.
cess depends solely upon the actions OF
each individual elected and not a sci
| of resolutions.
It's well to carefully consider the
| individual merits of the candidate s.

The much talked-of bond bill passed
the lower house of congress last Satur-
day by vote of 40 to 1856. 1t is strictly
a republican measure. only one demo-
crat and no populists voting for it
The bill, as passed, amends the re-
sumption act SO as to permit the issue
of 8 per cent coin bonds, redeemable
after five years at the pleasure of the
government. and payable in Is years.
with the specific proviso that nothing
in the bill shall be construed to repeal
the act of 1878 for the reissue of the
greenbacks. and that the bonds shall
first be offered for subscription at the
subtreasury and repositories of the
United States.
The second section of the bill pro-
vides for the issue of per cent three
year debt certificates of denomina-
tions of $50 and multiples thereof in
amounts not exceeding $5O,0OO,OOO to
meet temporary deficiencies.
just what disposition of the bill will
be made cannot be foretold, but 1t is
almost certain that the senate will Of

The Farm Record of Indianapolis,
Ind, is bright, hustling. wide-awake,
sixteen page monthly journal published
at so cents a year by C. Vincent, for
merry with the Nonconformist in Kan
sas, and il is thoroughly alive to the
needs of the farmers and full of sensi-
bic and business-like suggestions as 10
how the most can be made from farm
life. Most farm papers from the East
have little in common with our west
ern and southern people, and, knowing
but little of our surroundings, they do
not reach the point of making them
selves indispensable TO the farmer.
This is not the case with the Farm
Record, for its editor was reared in the
West and spent last summer here and
is fully acquainted with the peculiar
position OF the western and southern
farmer. He is also familiar in a gener-
al way with the needs of this class in
all parts of the country, having person
ally visited every agricultural state in
union. But he is now engaged in max
ing a fight for the farmer that should
endear him 10 every farm home. The
grain ring has had in operation a sys-
tenn of weighing which has locked a
very large portion of your grain for
years past. Mr.. Vincent has probed
that ulcer and found cure for it.
He has arranged with Chicago firm TO
handle the farmers grain without any
docSage and all grain will be weighed
under state supervision. Ct. S. Knipe,
OF Arlington, ). D., acting under the
direction of the Farm Record, sent a
carload of wheat to that market and
saved 4c per bushel. This is only one
of huHdreds.l You can save money.
