There is always much talk about
this or that man in a town "owning''
a newspaper. This is idle talk. There
was never paper about which this
talk did not circulate. In New York,
it is the bond syndicate which is sup
posed to Gown" the papers; in Chicago
it is the packing houses, in Kansas
City, it is the eastern gold bugs and
the western silver mine owners in
Kansas, it is the local bank owner in
every country town. Yet the writer
has been in and around newspapers
all his life, and he has personally
never known one paper that was sub
sidized. An editor generally has
friends who are kind to him. A man,
whether he is an editor or not, is
human. He likes to be decentlv CRATE
full. An editor generally helps his
friends without being asked to. Often
he offends them. Frequently he
does as he p!eases and tries to make
a living. That is all there is to it.
In the long run the editor is hated
because, in the course of the year,
every man finds something which he
does not want to see in print. The
subscribers demand it. business re
quires it, and there you are. If he is
a good business man he is hated. If
he is hated, his enemies say he is
"owned" by some one.-Emporia
Gazette.

Eastern capitalists with an eye to
business and profitable investment
harnessed the roaring waters of Nj
agara and the vast power that has
been going to waste over that thun-
dering cataract for ages has at last
been put to service of man and is now
driving with tireless arm the ponder
GUS machinery of many miles and
turning darkness into light by myriad
of electric lights. Thomas A. Edison
in a recent trip across the Atlantic
said the most impressive thought
during that journey was the great
loss of power meaning the tossing
of the waves and restlessness of the
sea. Now, if Mr.. Edison will just
come out TO this part of Kansas we
believe he will be lead to a similar
expression relative to the wind. The
vast power that is daily lost here is
beyond estimate and if some way was
devised whereby it might be conserved
it would turn the wheels in every
factory in the state and turn the dark
ness of night into MONDAY. Nature
creates but for some wise and bene
fcent design, and the furious winds
that sweep over the face Of this
country are certainly for some purpose
that man has not yet discovered. It
may be that in the near future this
country will be used, much as Niagara
falls now is, as a great power station
for generating electricity to supply all
the light plants in the state and for
motor power. Let US hope that the
wind will not always rage over this
unconfned, and that the day
is not far distant when it will be with
Joy we hear the mad howl of old
Boreas as he turns with never weary
wing the myriad wheels that will store
away for future use thousands of
horsepower of electricity every day.

REPUBLICANS favor sound money
and have always done 80. They are
the makers Of the present greenback
and national bank currency, and there
is none better upon the globe. They
favor both gold and silver and will
continue to do So, while they will care
fully guard the interests Of the people
from any wild schemes that vision
aries bring forward. But they do
not regard this currency question as
the great and leading issue of the
campaign. That is protection to
American industries. Repubhcanism
has never been q one-idea party and
the effort of the gold bugs to run the
campaign on that issue will fail.

The Horse Market.

The Western Kansan who is ''long"
on horses and "short" on cattle, may
take some consolation on the improv-
ing condition of the prices of horses.
During few years past horse breed
ing almost ceased, owing to the low
prices of animals; and now, owing to
the scarcity of horse stock, prices have
advanced and growing demand is
the result. The Kansas City Star
says:
The weeks regular horse auction
closed last week the most promising
in several weeks. Prices were firmer
and the quality was exceptionally
good. The demand is strong for the
best grades of all classes.
The st. Louis Globe-Democrat
gives the following report of the
horse market.
Market only fairly active. South
ern horses ranged generally from $35
$50, while good class of drivers
at SIS to SIS sold for Southern ship
ments; small Southern teams sold at
$50 to $125. Farm chunks brought
$45 to $65, and Eastern and export
chunks sold at $62.5O to 800; ex-
pressers and drafters went at SIS to
Sis. Fair to good drivers sold at
SOS to $50, good to choice ones at $85
to $155, road horses at $130 to 1910,
and coachers up to 5000. Carriage
and driving teams brought $185 to
$500.

The United States Supreme Cour
seversee Judge Martin and the Su
preme Court of Kansas, on the de
cision of the mortgage redemption
law.
A law was passed by the Legislature
Of 1893 giving period Of redemptio1
of eighteen months to all lands sold
under mortgage foreclosure and
allowing the mortgagor to retain
possession of the property during the
eighteen months allowed for re
demption. The law also provided
that the mortgagor might redeem the
property for the amount bid at the
sale. This law was applicable to all
contracts, even though made prior to
the passage of the law.
Mr.. Justice Shiras handed down
the opinion. He said that the case
had been twice passed on by the su-
preme court of the state of Kansas.
In the first opinion Chief Justice Hor-
ton, then the head of the court, held
that the law of 1893 did not ap-
ply to contracts entered into before
the law was passed. Later, when the
court was reorganixed and Chief
Justice Martin was its head, the case
was reviewed and the court held that
the law Of 1893 did apply to mort
cages made before it was enacted.
The case was brought to the su-
preme court on writ of error. The
test case was that of Martha Barnitz,
who made in 1885 promissory notes
secured by real estate. Default was
made in interest and suit was brought
to sell the land. Meantime the law
of 1898 had been enacted by the Kan
sas legislature. It gave eighteen
additional time for final re-
and allowed the maker of
the notes to enjoy the emoluments,
rents, etc., without restraint.
In reversing the case and remand
ing it back to the supreme court of
Kansas to be entered up in accord
ance with the decree, Mr.. Justice
Shiras briefly said that the court con
Cured in the opinion of Justice Hor-
Ton of Kansas that the law did not |
apply to any contracts made prior to |
1893.
Justice Shiras held that no law was |
7alid which prescribed the mode of
contract in existence when |
he law was enacted.
