Ex-Governor John T. st. John
utters very sensible view Of the
Venezuelan trouble. He says:
ut is shallow JiIgoism pure and
simple. Mr.. Cleveland's Venezuela
message was merely to touch Ameri-
can patriotism to draw their atten-
tiOn from financial plundering going
on. And the gOldbug Republicans

this furore over a boundary dispute
between Venezuela and England is

comes with bad grace from those who
encouraged acquisitions right in our
own cOuntry,by English syndicates,
realities aggregating more in acreage
than six of the New England states.
why, even within the past few
weeks, said the governor, "British
Lords have acquired whole counties
In area in Indiana and Illinois and
the west. They own our bonds, they
own our railroads, our principal in

policies, And the very men who are

knuckle and truckle most to British
demands in our monetary system.

Col. Copeland delivered an elo-
quent lecture on THE Future OF
the Republic" with the general tenor
Of which we can all agree. But We
can not help noting that after point
ing out the many powerful nations
that have gone down to ruin before
us, it would have been improved by
emphasizing the fact that we in this
favored land should not close eur
eyes to present evils and signs Of ma
tional decay and rely wholly upon
the very plausible presentiment, land
one in which we share unreservedly)
that God saved this country back
for the purpose of working out his
plan of human government. God
helps those who help themselves.
Cromwell said to his army, trust in
God but keep your powder dry"
This is what is expected of US. We
have place to Gil in the chain Of
governmental evolution and we owe
it to our posterity to do our duty.
Let us awaken to our responsibility
and profit by the lessons Of the past.

Cy. Leland is just back from
Washington and gets of the follow
ing gush in an interview about Dick
Blue:
you ought to see Dick Blue. He
has made the biggest kind of a sensa.
tion down in Washington. The boys
always knew Dick as a mixer, but
they hardly expected to see him on
hugging terms with all the big guns
inside of two weeks after congress met.
He Is right in the swim with all of the
old substantial fellows. 1t would
tickle you to hear Congressman Can
non call him Dick, and then hear him
call Cannon Joe.
Amy man elected to congress from
the west can get on "hugging terms"
with the gold bugs by identifying him
self with that crowd. Witness, also,
what he says of the other gold bugs:
Calderhead, also, is looked upon as
strong able man, though he does not
push himself in anywhere,
And here is the send off our Ches-
ter gets from Apple-Jack Cy:
Congressman Chef Long is also
well liked. His modest pleasing man.
ners are making him friends and be-
sides that he came to Washington
with a big advertisement as the man
who beat Jerry Simpson"
Thus does the chairman OF the
Republican State Central Committee
testify to the fact that Chester has
to trace his notoriety to his pre-
decessor-our Jerry1 He has dis
covered that Jerry was not consid-
cred such a fool down there al

Seventh district are going to send

every one was occupied, some of them

three hundred and fifty persons.
Every selection on the program was
excellent. 1t was the regular BIZ
monthly installation of officers, and
Prof. W. 5. Davis was re-installed as
president, while Yves Mickey took
the pledge as vice-president. Owing
to the recent very serious illness of the
president, from which he had not yet

The New York Post expresses
editorial surprise over the financial
"vagaries of Kansas" which state,
according to the late census, shows
a greater per cent Of American born
population that any other state in
the Union, whereat the Wichita
Eagle replies quite vigorously in a
manner that would do credit to a
Populist paper. 1t says: at all
happens, Mr.. Post, all comes about,
through higher average intelligence
of the people Of Kansas, ana cor
respondingly lower average of en-
lightment in the other common
wealths named. Under existing
conditions the people of Kansas
have been forced to become "hewers
Of wood and drawers of water" and
they not only realize their condition,
