THE WAY TO GET 1T.

When the profound f~nanciers
were debating, at much length and
little depth, the best method Of
resuming specie payments, Horace
Greeley solved the problem in
seven words by saying: "The way
to resume is to Resume
The pessimists and croakers,
lawful parents of their kind to-
day, predicted unbounded disaster
if the dangerous experiment were
tried; but it was tried, and, 10, a
generation unused to the sight and
touch of hard metal, became at
once familiar with silver and gold,
enjoyed the novelty for a short
while, rejoiced a little to be re-
lieved of the dirty paper frac-
tional currency, then regretted the
absence of it as a convenient re-
mittance by mail, and finally &C
copied postal substitute for the
latter and silver ''change'' for the
former,
The Government had "re-
sumed'' and nobody but the bank
ers and spectators knew whether
the dreaded experiment had been
a boon or an injury to trade; but
everybody knew that it was a con-
venient improvement on the daily
and hourly fluctuations which pre-
vailed when our currency was de-
preciated.
The way to Go anything is to do
it. The power to secure free sill
e. lies with the people.
The wiseacres, college profess
r and closet philosophers pom
dered and maundered long and
deeply over the relation OF the
Venezuelan question to the Mon
roe Doctrine, and while they were
mulling over it-even before some
of the profeundest had begun to
expatiate on it-President Cleve-
land decided the question by a
single bold message, for which
severing of the Gordian knot the
addle-headed sages have not yet
forgiven him.
The way to check the alarming
growth of the money power in
this country is to do it with the
poor mans only weapon of peace
the ballot. He will have a chance
to do it next November, and it
will be his fault alone if the OPP
portunity be lost.
The way to have free silver is
to have it; and the way to get it is
to vote for Bryan and Sewall in
November.

TOMORROW'S PRIMARIES
For Members of the City Council and TN
School Board.

School Board.
At 2 p. m. tomorrow the polls at the
Repu blican city primary will open and
the voting commence. The primaries
are to be conducted on the Crawford
county system, but the Australian ballot
will not be used. The Australian ballot
was abandoned because of the expense
and the fact that there are but few can
didates and the expense would have nee
essarily been heavy upon each candi-
date.
morrow are five councilmen, one from
each ward; five members of the school
board, one from each ward but nomi-
mated by the city at large; three consta-
bles to be nominated by the city at large.
In the councilman fight two of the
members have no opposition. They are
Pattison of the First Ward and Stephen
son of the Second. In the Fourth the
opposition to Col. Burgess is not pro-
nounced and he will be nominated be-
You'd a doubt He has been honest and
straig htforward, and will receive the
support of good people all over the
ward.
In the third there is now but one can
didste, c. H. Nettles, and he is the kind
of man to make good councilman,
and has made no promises to individ-
uals,
In the Fifth ward, at the last moment,
the politicians brought out man named
Challis. ]. s. Warner refused to make
any pledges, and SO they found some one
to oppose him. Mr.. Warner is in no
danger. He is we'll know, and he will
be nominated without making a single
pledge. The people should not forget
to vote for Mr.. Warner.

WAKARUSA'S SQUIRE ACTS
He Sentences Two Tramps to the
County Jail
FOR THREE DAYS FOR WICKEDLY

Burning and Destroying Three Fence
POsts-The Majesty of the Law Must
BE Upheld.
Last night two tramps were bounced
from a freight train at Wakarusa. The
wind played hide and seek thorugh their
summer clothing as they prepared to
spend the night in the open air, and the
wearies pulled up three fence posts, and
soon comfortable camp fire was blaz-
ing.
This morning their crime was discov-
cred. They were seized, hauled before
J. NJ. Westgate, ]. P, and arraigned for
trial.
The tramps pleaded guilty to wilfulIy,
maliciously, premeditatedly, with intent
then and there to make heat, burning
three fence posts. against the peace of
the commonwealth, and the statutes in
such cases made and provided
Justice Westgate frowned. Here was
a case which called for an example.
Upon being assured by the prisoners that
there was no reason why the sentence of
the court should not be pronounced
upon them, Justice Westgate heaved a
sigh, wiped his spectacles, took shot at
the nearest tobacco box cuspidor, and
amid deathlike silence i'll the court room
sentenced Harry E. and Arthur Herring
TO be confined in the Shawnee county
Jail for three days.
When Jailer Larry Sheehan had stud
led the commitment long enough this
noon to make it out he was struck dumb
to find that no costs had been assessed
against the prisoners, nor had any tine
been imposed The commitment itself
was rare old relic of the variety printed
decades ago by the State Record office.
The railroad fare of the two men was
paid from Wakarusa to Topeka that they
might serve their three days. A railroad
man was deputized to bring the prison
ers here and they arrived at 10 a. N
today.

QUEER OLD MOSES HARTMAN
The Aged Free Thought ''r1artyr for
His Opinions
IS TO BE LET OUT OF PRISON

On the Third of ApriI-The Free
Thought Colony Here Are TO Give
Him a Reception,
Moses Hartman, old, gray haired, Grip
pied, fearless Moses Hartman, will be re-
leased from the United States prison on
April 8, having served his sentence of
one year and one day, less sixty days, for
good behavior
Harma was sent to the penitentiary
on the 4th day of June last, sentenced by
Judge Foster for sending improper mat
ter through the United States mails. The
matter referred to was word in a letter
printed in his free thought paper, the
Lucifer, published on East Fourth street.
The letter was written by a doctor in the
interest of decency and morality. but it
should not have appeared in letter cir
, culated as indiscriminztely as the Lu-
cifer.
Since Hartman has been in prison his
daughter Lillian Hartman has been pub
fishing the paper for him. She is her
own editor, foreman and proofrsader.
She has herself suffered for her broad
beliefs and opinions, having been in Jail
for refusing to accept any but the cere-
mouy performed by her father in her
marriage to E c. Walker, who was then
her fathers partner in publishing the
Lucifer at Valley Falls. One child was
born to them, little girl who is now
four years old. Walker is working on
free thought paper in New York and
his free love wife has visited him twice
in the past year and will return to him
when her father is ready to resume his
place on the Lucifer.
Lillian Harmon visited her father at
the federal prison two weeks ago and
says he is in good health and good
spirits.
"He has been treated very kindly"
she SAID, while he was in the peniten-
tiary during the first month of his i'm
prisonment he had really nothing to do
aud was allowed to wear his full beard.
AT the federal prison he was put in the
kitchen at light work such as peeling DO
tatoes, washing dishes, etc. Then he
was put in the printing Office and later
taught in the night school for prisoners.
Al present he is one of the attendants in
charge of a hospital ward.
"He will not resume his entire work in
the Lucifer Office Immediately when he
gets back but will probably prepare for
publication a book he has started. He is
allowed to write in the prison and wrote
letters to his paper here twice a month,
as often as he was allowed to send mail
out"

give MrsHarman reception when he
