GOVERNOR CLICK MAY GO.

And now the 'swear by the rule''
Democracy Of Kansas, who participat-
ed in the national Democratic conven-
ton at Indianapolis, are threatening to
pull off Mr.. George W. Clicks cap and
bells by causing his removal as pension
agent for Missouri. Kansas and Col
orado. The men who would like to
see his head go of because Of the aid
and sympathy he has been extending
fusion, have the sympathy of the
Cleveland administration. Governor
Francis, who succeeds Hoke Smith, is
a Missourian, and another Missourian
is after Clicks place, who If he sue
ceeded would remove the agency to
Kansas City or St Louis, probably the
latter place. The name of the Mis-
sourian is Burgess, and he Is personal
friend Of the new secretary Of the in
terror. Cleveland has a great repug-
nance to federal officers mixing In pol
itics, except when they mix in his di-
rection. An informal meeting Of
straight-outs was lately held in To
peka, at which time the sentiment
seemed strong for Clicks displacement.
1t would have been stronger had there
been an available Kansas man for a
candidate.

APALAcE ON APryor.

For the next Paris exposition il Is
proposed to construct a gigantic revolv-
ing tower 400 feet high, in which spec.
tators may sit and see all over the gay
French capital as the house impercept-
IDLY turns around. The French had
the celebrated Eiffel tower for their
last exposition. The Americans had
the great Ferris wheel at the Column
bian Worlds Fair at Chicago. Now 1t
is proposed to adapt the idea of motion
to the structural design OF a tower. and
thus cap the climax of national toy
construction.
The inventor of the revolving tower
is NJ. Devic, and he calls IL ''The Palace
of Progress" 1t is calculated that the
outer wall Of the tower will move at
the rate of 3 feet s inches a second, or
at about the rate Of 215 miles an hour.
Two minutes will complete one revolu-
ton. and the bearings are said by me-
chanical engineers to be so designed
as to take away all sense of motion
from those who are inside while il is
going around. The motive power will
be hydraulic. The site will be the
summit Of Montmartre, the highest
point within the Notifications Of Paris

A WORTHY MAN.

Notwithstanding the big majority of
Popocrats against him, B. F. Mclean
will be the next representative from
the Si1ty-ninth district to the state leg
islature, and will be the one to bring
victory to the people Of that district.
AS city councilman Ben Mclean Is
one Of the most thoughtful, the most
active and most obliging. He is quick
in mind and body, and If asked to do
a thing he is on the alert to accom-
plish it. He is a man of the masses
and awake to their every interest He
Is the present chairman of the finance
committee Of the city council, as well
as president Of that body.
AS business man, McLean's ability
is recognized wherever his lot is cast.
BY his own pluck and energy, he has
risen within the past few years from a
position as boOkkeeper in lumbery yard
until today he is the proprietor If
ever there was a self-made man, Ben
Mclean is one. and by his own efforts
has established for himself a reputa-
ton as one of the safest and most con-
servative business men in Sedgwick
county.
One Of McLean's characteristics is his
hatred of hypocrisy or shams Of any
kind. There is about him an utter alb
sence Of pretense or affectatiOn. He
discards any attempt to make show
of himself and would be the last person
to speak or act for mere effect Open
and straightforward In both language
and actions, he lacks that quality of
politician which makes one expert at
pulling wires" or laying pipes" His
name is synonym for honesty. and it
has been long well known that his
word Is as good as his bond.
Benjamin Mclean will be a states
man with a conscience, believing that
public Office is a public trust" What
is for human veal finds in him an adj
vocate, all alike atteSing to the
breadth and genuineness OF his SYM
pathies. He is man with sound prin-
ciples, pure and noble impulses and a
stainless character. Ben was never
known to exceed the bounds OF the
most rigid temperance.
Being a clear-headed and Industrious
student Of political economy, he has
comprehensive independence of mind.
He yindicates honest citizenship in It's
stand for law and order, for truth and !
justice. His utterance is that OF q
high-minded American citizen who |
stands true 10 the government. who |
places duty above the claims OF party.

WILL ALWAYS BE WITH Us.

Probably the most discouraging
piece Of political news given out in
Kansas for a long time, a sickening
residum which will overcome the aver
age man with that tired feeling which
reconciles one TO suicide, is the an
nouncement of the contemplated run
ming of John Peter st. John for COVER
nor on the Prohibition ticket. What
renders the announcement impossible
of any mitigation or relief is the sug-
gestion that in the event of a failure to
nominate st. John, that I. o. Pickering
will be named. The scheme is for a
fusion between the Nationals" and the
"RegularS" The Nationals repre-
sent st. Johns split at Pittsburg, a
contingent Of clean-gone cranks. The
leaders of this Third-Fourth Prohibi-
ton commix claim that by such prop
itious amalgamation from ten to fiji
teen thousand votes would be polled
for their candidate. 1t is safe TO say
that nowhere near one-half such num-
Der of men can be found in the state
who would thus deliberately throw
away their votes for no better purpose
than that Of keeping the name of John
p. St John before the public, for that
is all it would amount to. However,
a conference Of leaders O. will be call
ed shortly to consider the matter, in
which connection it is claimed that the
State Temperance union will approve
Of the imbecile scheme.

VERMONT AND ARKANSAS.

The Democratic, or rather Popocratic
papers are pluming themselves over the
result in Arkansas. They couple Ar
kansas and Vermont and ask what
has the Republican party to brag over.
Well if the truth must be told, a good
deal There is a difference between
Arkansas and Vermont. 1t is simple
difference, but Of very wide signifi-
cance Both have held state elections
In one state the people registered their
will at the ballot box. In the other
state they did not. 1t is not necessary
to even name the state where the peo-
Dle had their will nor the one where
they did not In Vermont every voter
was permitted to cast one ballot and to
have it fairly counted, and about 80
per cent OF them did cast ballots, every
one of which was fairly counted. The
majority for Mckinley in Vermont is
a real majority, determined by count
ing the votes for and against him. 1t
is not so in Arkansas. There in twenty
counties the Republican party was not
allowed to have representatives on the
local boards Of election; there the
greater part of the cOlored vote, which
is more than one-third of the whole,
either is counted falsely for the Demo-
cratic candidate or is suppressed.
Nobody believes that Vermont spoke
otherwise than is recorded Of it, for
Mckinley. Nobody-not even any
Observation-Disclosures that Arkansas spoke
as is recorded of it, for Bryan.

HERR MOST UNCHANGED.

1t has been frequently announced of
late that Herr Most was against free
silver and for gold recommendation, that
in short the Democratic party went too
far and the Republican party not far
enough. Those who know anything of
the man and his writings were con-
WINGED that there was a hitch some
where in this report. Herr Most is an
Anarchist, pure and simple, and does
not believe in administrative govern
ment- He is just as much in favor
OF free silver as he is of free gold. with
no Use for either as a legal tender, as
he fayors n general smashup OF the
present system OF civilization and gov
eminent had hailed the virtuous Alt
geld as his friend and the nomination
Of Bryan as a step forward in favor Of
his doctrines, the announcement that
lie was for gold was hard to under
stand. In explaining his own views
be says: Il am no politician, but an
Anarchist. and consequently do not
care for any party in the arena of vot-
Ing fights which l regard rs a monkey
theaher good for the amusement of big
children. l believe in revolution and
not il humbug'
Mr.. Most finds nothing in any of the
parties of the country or in their tenets
worthy his consideration While he
has Endorsed some Of the acts of Alt
geld he has no more use for Altgeld's
party than he has for the Republican
party. He wants something in the
blocd-curdling line and cares nothing
for the two-dollar dollar or the fifty
three cent dollar. Neither means revo-
tuition. His being quoted, therefore.
by the Popocrats as supporting Mchin-
ley or the Republican platform. is all
moonshine and utterly without founda-
ton. The idea gained currency simply
from the fact that because he de-
nouneed the Chicago platform Ii was
concluded that therefore he must favor
the Republican platform. He does not.
many sense.

DOWN IN MAINE.

There is unusual interest evinced in
the press Of the country in the Maine
state election, which occurs next Mon
day. 1t is claimed by Republicans
that the state will go Republican by an
Increased majority, and Speaker Reed
is quoted in such connection. 1t VIII
not be forgotten that the Pine Tree
state to a greater extent than any other
New England state was affected by the
greenback craze. As rule the former
greenback sentiment Of any locality is
a pretty good meter for the silver senti-
ment For this reason and the further
reason that the PopOcratic candidate
for vice president is a resident Of
Maine, there may be surprise in store
for the country next Tuesday morning.
II, upon the ether hand. that common
wealth should initiate Vermont the re-
suit will tell tremendously for the Re
publican party. The assurances. there
fore, of a grOund,Swell against the
hodge-podge OF alterations chucked
into the Popocratic and Ocraticpop
platforms respectively, are contem-
plated by lively reflections.
AT the election Dext Monday. the
1+th instant, a governor, congressman.
legislature and various county and
city officers are TO be chosen. In the
