Der, was located in St. Louis Satur-

CORBETT SAYS NIX NIT
That Is How He Sizes Up Fitzsimmons, tn
Kangaroo Dub.

Kansas City, No, May flames j.
Corbett left over the Missouri Pacific
at o'clock last night for St Louis,
where he will remain few days and
then proceed to Hot Springs, where he
intends TO put in two weeks in recuper-
ating. Corbett was the center OF at
fractions for a large crowd of admirers
al the depot for some time previous 10
the departure of his train, and he en-
tertained few of them with whom he
was acquainted with "reminiscences Of his
career. When off the stage, and with
a party of friends VINO are not inclined
TO criticise his language. Corbett drops
into the phraseology of the professional
pugilist, and some of his remarks, while
not explained by Webster, or any other
authority on English, are very good and
strictly up TO date.
He was sitting on truck on the de-
pot platform with one leg thrown care
lessly over the other, watching the
smoke arise from his cigar, when one
of the party said to him:
''Now Corbett, on the square, what do
you think of Fitzsimmons?"
Corbett turned around so as to get
better view of the speaker, and after
a moments pause said: ''Pll tell yoa
nat Va L LIN yOd
ever hear the new word nit that is used
when anyone wants TO say no or moth
ing? Well, if you did and know the
full meaning of the word you will doubt
lessly understand me when l say that
Fitzsinmons is mix nit That is the
best explanation l can give you OF that
kangaroo dub"
Corbett paid his respect to Sullivan
by saying that John L. did not have all
of his marbles and that il was only
question of a short time till his friends
would have to take him TO ''bughouse"
He said the week just closed in this
city had been very successful one for
his show, and that he would not APP
pear again as an actor until next fall,
when he intends TO go abroad.

Gladness Comes

With a better understanding OF the
Wv transient nature of the many phys
zeal ills, which vanish before proper Ell
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There Is comfort IN
the knowledge, that SO many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual DIS
ease. but simply to constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
lv removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it Is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
ali important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle. which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatlves or
other remedies are then not needed. IL
afflicted with any actual disease, one
NAV be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

The County Campaign.

Both the republican and peoples
party have nominated their county
tickets, The one chosen by the re-
publicans was told Of last week, and
from a reference to our report Of the
peoples party convention, the reader
will learn who that party has picked
out. We feel that the two tickets are
made up Of representative men, and
this is az ii should be, an incompetent
official can place upon the people a
heavy burden Of taxation that must
be borne by friend and foe alike. In
the campaign before us we hope that
the fight will be made upon the prin-
ciples Of the parties and not upon the
narrow lines Of personal fsttery or
derogstory attacks upon opposition
candidates. We have no personal
fight TO make upon any local candi-
date of the opposition. We believe
the populists have put their best foot
forward, and presumably the repub-
licans think they have done the same
thing. II candidate holds views
that are in the estimation of his OPP
ponents OF such a character, as to
make him undesirable as an office
holder, bis ideas upon public matters
are just subjects for criticism. A
man may be a model citizen, and yet
it may not be for the best interests Of
the people to elect him to a position
Of trust, During the coming cam
psign this paper will in each issue
advocate the election Of the gentle
men whose names are on the ticket
printed each week, We hope to so
conduct the HERALD that it's readers
will find much Of interest, and of
profit. Our readers can rest assured
that whatever is printed of National,
State or County affairs will be based
upon so solid q foundation of truth
that what you see in the HERALD
"goes."

Keep Cool.
goes

II is possibly unfortunate that all
pelsons do not look at political mat
ters alike. In all probability speakers
of more or less renown will hold the
people spell bound with their elo-
quence during the xezt two months,
in different parts of the county. 1t
may be that some Of these orators
will say something that you do not
believe, if so just keep quiet. If you
cannot let the other fellow talk stay
away from bis meeting. If pur-
chance you attempt to disturb his
address, you lose the esteem of all
falr-minded people and do your polit-
icaI enemy good. The American pub
lie in the main believes in reason
able amount of fair play, and the
right of free speech is one of the
dearest privileges Of this nation, and
then remember, if you win the other
side has to live with you, and If he
wins you cannot get away. So keep
cool, and give the other side a show,
We urge upon all peoples party ad-
herents, that they keep absolutely
quiet, when attending a republican
rally.

ONE day last week the Mail and
Breeze Office was visited by troupe
of children from the Soldiers Orphans
Home at Atchlson who were seeking
the sights at the Capital City under
guidance of Superintendent Faulkner
as reward for good behavior. AS
we looked over the happy, rosy. cheek
ed, well dressed body OF boys and
girls, all of them the sons and dauRht-
ers OF Union soldiers, who willingly
sacrificed everything on the altar OF
national perpetulty, our mind revert
ed to day in the session OF the Kan
sas senate two years ago when one
single senator of all the forty cast his
vote against the appropriation bill
which provided a home and food and
education for these soldiers orphans.
Just one ignoble soul among the forty!
Just one Implying mind and one cold
calloused heart, and his name was j.
w. Leedy!-MaiI and Breeze.
The above is cut from the Kirwin
Globe. What are the facts. Mr..
Leedy has been a senator for four
years. On pages 531 and $50 OF the
Senate journal for the year OF 1893,
will be found the action taken upon
the appropriation for the years of
1893 and 1894 tor the Soldiers
Orphans Home. Mr.. Leedy was
present and voted aye. On page 965
of the same record for the year 1895,
will be found the vote upon the ap-
preparation for this home for the
years of 1896 and 1897. The record
shows yeas 20, nays none, Senator
Leedy being absent, When this vote
was taken eleven senators were alb
sent, Six Of them republicans, one
democrat, and four popullsts. The
Mail and Breeze simply lied. Will
the Globe correct its error? Get the
books and see if our statement is not
true.
