HOME AND IT'S INFLUENCE.

What the Creator is TO the Creature,
Home is to the State.
MAKE your home beautiful, bring to it
flowers;
Plant them around you to bud and to
Let them give light in your loveliest hours,
Let them bring light to enlighten the
gloom.'
Make home hive where all loveliest feel
Cluster like bees and their honeydew

Make it temple OF holy revealings,
And love its bright angel with shadowing
WINGS"
There are three immutable things
in the world-the family, the church,
and the state-and the first of these
is the family. Its origin is coeval
with the divine origin of the human
race. What the seed is to the plant,
the fountain to the stream, the Crea-
tor to the creature, Is the home to
the state. Nay, more. If church be
divided, and state destroyed, the
home yet remains; but if the home
fall, church and state are inevitably
involved in its ruin.
One of the dangerous tendencies of
the people of this land to-day is in
avoiding the duties and responsible
ties of home life.
Children, the flowers of God in the
garden of time, are termed an in
cumbrance, and too often are left in
the care of hired help, for the sake
of few more hours of frivolous en-
| ljoyment, relief from care, or a
chance of "seeing the world
Woman's divinely appointed posi-
tion is not on thrones, not in legisia-
tive halls, nor on the political plat
form, but in the home; home is the
cardinal point from which all her
best influence is exerted.
The mothers influence on her child
can not be overestimated. Nero's
mother was treacherous and un-
scrupulous. She poisoned her hus-
band to place her son upon the
throne. That son for whom she
plotted and sinned murdered her
his own mother-and was the cruel
est monster that ever disgraced a
throne. Byron's mother was haugh-
ty and ill-tempered. Her son, with
all the brilliancy of his magic Tyre,
was cynical, homeless 'wanderer.
Helena, the mother of Constantine
the Great, Notwithstanding the rude
ness of her native land, succeeded
in obtaining liberal education, and
instilled into the heart of her son
those principles which shaped his
future career.
In the Lost Cause" the best and
bravest men were not the recruits
gathered from among the homeless.
They were men whose wives, moth
ers and sisters, standing on thresh-
holds waved them an eternal fare
well; men to whom the honor and
perpetuity of the land were dearer
than life, and all because it was the
land of their homesl Ulysses turn
ed away from the charms of Calypso,
and dared anew, in his declining
years, the treacherous seas, that once
more he might behold the land of
his home.
Then rally round the standard of

ness, home and lovel Carry that
standard on till infidelity Is banish-
ed forever from our land; carry it on

ALIGHT In THE WINDOW.
John Y. McKain's BrOken-Hearted Wife
Watches for Him Nightly.

places it there-"so that John may

When the King of Gravesend was
sent to prison for violations of the
election laws his wife bore the blow
better than her friends thought she
might. She hoped for pardon. She
thought at first Gov. Flower would
act Immediately, and then knew
pardon was impossible, until the
strength of public sentiment against
her husband had abated. AS
months went by and no friends
arose, her hope did not die, but the
daily disappointment wore on her
health until now her physician says
she has not long to live.
Mrs. McKain's separation from
her husband has been her lightest
burden, his disgrace her keenest
affliction. He has suffered only in
pride and has grown fat in prison.
The ignOminy he scarcely feels has
crushed the woman's heart and
broken it. She lights the lamp at
evening and looks down the walk to
the gate, which is never opened by
the hand she longs to see upon the
latch. Neighbors have come to
know the meaning of the lamp, but
few dare to touch the sore spot by
mention of her sorrow. To such as

wifely tenderness until those who

man, of the State Democratic Execu-
tive Committee:
To Chairman Coleman.

Hartsville, Tenn, Oct. 3, 1885,
Hon. ]. M. Coleman, Chairman
Democratic State Executive Com
mittee, Nashville, Dear Sir: Hav-
ing resigned my position as candi-
date for elector for the State at
large for the Populist ticket, to the
end that might advocate the cleo
tion of Bryan in the only effective
way possible, by advocating the
election of Bryan and Sewall, 1
hereby tender your committee my
services on the stump until the No
vember election. The campaign
that is now pending Is the most mo-
mentous for good or evil that our
people have ever engaged in. The
great issue is: Shall the great plain
people or the corporations of the
United States dominate this Gov
ernment? The question of silver
coinage is, while a great question,
but the index to the more momen-
tous issues that surround us.
With the election of Bryan we
have for the future but little to fear,
and with the election of Mckinley
but little to hope. .'I
Let it be borne In mind that but
one great issue is ever settled at a
time, but whenever that issue is set
tied all of its attendant issues inva-
riably follow. So that / verify be-
lieve that with a fortunate settle
ment of the financial question at
this time, all of the other reforms SO
devoutly to be wished for will be
enacted by the same men and same
inspiration that will relieve the peo-
pie of the present CALLING chains OF
slavery that bind them. Therefore
intend to use my energies as best ]
can to effectively accomplish this
result, and trust that the service ]
render and the labor that 1 give
freely will not be in vain. L an
very respectfully,
JAMES T. MILLER.

THE gold-bug and Republican pa
pers affected at first to rejoice that
Bryan was making and would con-
tinue to make, so many speeches.
They said that the more he talked
the less votes he would get. But
now, as the campaign progresses,
and as the mighty current of Bryan
enthusiasm swells larger and strong
er by reason of these speeches, these
same papers have changed their
tune. They affect now to be tired of
them, and are trying to agree among
themselves not to print any more of
them. But there is too much that is
good, new and fresh in every speech
he makes for any reputable newspa-
per to dare refuse to publish them.

TRUTH is stronger than fiction.
Jasper Ebersault and wife of

full discovery that they are brother
and sister. They were orphans, and
separated in early childhood, and
met in after life as strangers. An old
friend of their parents first discov-
cred the truth and told them. This
is an instance when it were better,
perhaps, if the truth had not been
told.

ENGLAND WILL ARBITRATE

1t is officially announced that al
agreement has finally been reached
by England and the United States
whereby the controversy between
Great Britain and Venezuela will be
submitted to a board of arbitration
two members of which are to be select.
ed by England and two by the United
States, while the fifth will be King
Oscar, of Sweden.
The difficulty in the way of arbitra-
tion at the beginning of the cOLtro
versy was the unwillingness of Eng
land to submit all the claims of Vene-
Zuela; but it is understood that she
has yielded that point and will rely
upon being able to show so long an
occupancy of the disputed territory as
to justify her claims.
Thus fades another "war cloud ;"
and Mr.. Clevelsnd's bold bluff is
justified.

that corn and hogs are always high
and flour and meat always cheap,
with which they would have revolu-
tiOnized things six years ago, will
not be spread upon the statute books
in the year of our Lord 1897. And
besides the fact that the Populists
have learned something, there is ad-
ditionsl ground for hope in the fact
that there will be in the coming legis-
lature large leaven Of level headed
Democrats, who managed to crawl
under the fusion tent in a good many
counties. (Alas that a Kansas Repub-
lican should live to thank God that
a Kansas Democrat was elected to
officeD These Democrats will unite
with the forty Republicans and
the occasional level-headed POpulist
like Edwin Taylor and Sweet and
Brown in the House, and with the
ten Count them, tenD Republicans in
the Senate, and the result, il it be not
good, will at least be little harm. If
we happened to be an eastern pluto
crat and saw a good chance to make
a fortune by investing money in Kan
sas, (such as is now offered in The great
gas field at IOla) we shouldn't be
scared out of it by the vision of con-
fiscatory legislation. Kansas is not
nearly as dangerous as the blatheI
sixties have made her out to be.
So we hope, and believe, that of the
showers of blessings the election of
Mckinley is scattering over the land
generally, some drops may fall on
Kansas, even Kansas. She doesn't
deserve it. She is big enough, old
enough and ought to know better.
But the rain falls on the just and the
unjust alike with divine impartiality;
and surely the wave Of prosperity
that is sweeping over the country
generally will at least slop over a
little into Kansas. And we will show
our gratitude by the big Republican
Majority we will give in 1898.

ELECTION ODDS AND ENDS.

On the seventh page of this paper
will be found summary Of the re-
turns from Kansas, with the names
of the members of the Legislature and
the figures that tell the awful stery
of Repu blican defeat, There also APP
pears on that page table showing
the vote in the electoral college, CIV
ing the result of the election in the
Nation. The story of our glory and
our shame side by side. On the
eighth page we give the complete
official vote of Allen county, together
with the names of all the township
Ofhcers-elect. 1t will be noted with
interest, and We fancy with surprise,
that there are only 173 more Populists
than Democrats in the county. At
least that would seem to be indicated
by the fact that but 919 votes were
cast for Bryan on the Peoples party
ticket, while 746 were cast for him on
the Democratic ticket. And this takes
no account of the % Democrats who
cast their votes for Palmer. 1t is
rather funny that 76S Democrats
should lie down every year and let
9l9 Pops. walk over them. 1t is in
teresting to note also that in nearly
every instance when the county tick
ct was reached the Prohibition vote
was cast against the Republican can
didates. This vote has fallen off so
much, however, that it is no longer a
factor in the politics of the county.
AS matter of interesting COMPARE
son we present herewith the vote of
the various precincts in 1894 and 1896,
taking the figures each year from the
vote cast for Secretary of State, and
adding together the Democratic and
Peoples party vote of 1894:

FAREWELL TO AN OLD SETTLER,

Tuesday, November 10, about 40 OF
the friends and neighbors of Mr.. John
Day and family, of Cottage Grove,
took their dinners and called to give
them farewell surprise dinner be-
fore their departure to their new home
in Georgia, whence they will start
Tuesday, November II.
The lady friends of Mrs. Day had
each pieced a block for an Album
quilt, which they presented to her as
a memento of their love and esteem
for her.
Mr.. Day came to Kansas soon after
the close of the war and settled on the
farm where they now reside.
We regret very much to lose this
estimable family. as they have al
ways taken deep interest in our
church and also in other affairs for the
welfare of our community. But we
comfort ourselves with the thought
that what is our loss will be Georgia's
gain.

Catarrh Means Danger.

Because If unchecked it may lead d.
rectly to consumption. Catarrh is
caused by impure blood. This fact
is fully established. Therefore, it is
useless to try to cure eatarrh by out
ward applications or inhalants. The
true way to cure catarrh is to purify
the blood. Hoods Sarsaparilla, the
great blood purifier. cures catarrh by
its power to drive out all impurities
from the blood. Thousands of people
testify that they have been perfectly
and permanently cured of catarrh by
Hoods Sarsaparilla.
