The Mulyane Policy sheet of Tope-
ka is in horrible agony over the tenn
perauce. question. After trying to
pull the leg of the temperance ele-
ment for months; heapiug abuse on
the heed of governor Leedy and the
Populist police commissioners of To-
peka, and pretending that the temper
ance problem was the great and vital
issue in the Shawnee county cam
Ipaign, it now says that the saloon is
not an issue; that there is no such
thing as principle in the campaign:
that the question of temperance Is
"not in it," but it is purely a question
of anything to beat the Pops" But
its own candidate says that it is liar
and the truth is not in it.
Result: The top rail of the fence
was sharp; too sharp; and in attempt
ing to ride it the gentleman was split
In twain, and in slapping him togerh-
er hurridly one leg is up and the other
down.

been issued for both the Corbett brothers
Their arrest is sure to follow, for the evi-
dence is indisputable.
However, 1t was concluded not to NAL
any more arrests until every known place
where pools are sold had Teen visit ed.
Hyman and Rice have been industrlousl,
at work, and 1t is stated that to-day they
will have several NOR warrants issued.
Then the ones who have been detected in
such fagrant violation of the law will be-
placed under arrest.
The police have had to keep their eyes
open so far as tho selling of pools on the
races is concerned ever since the law was
passed. The principal reason for passn
the ordinance is that so many of the
young have their minds corrupted by
evil associations while hanging around
the poolrooms and are initiated into the
v ce of gam bling.
The racing season opened last Monday.

upon the stage were the speakers and Il
few OF Georges warmest friends.
l.. Nj. Manner. president of the local
slngle-tax society, acted as chairman, and
in brief speech announced the object of
the meeting and led the audience in the
Lord 8 prayer.
J. j. Calvin was the first speaker. Mr.
GAVIN represented the TyI ograp phical
Union, of which Henry George was a

He was followed by Andrew Furuselh
George was, in his boy hood DAYS, a sailor"
he said. I'm his travels his eyes became
opened to the UNEQUAL conditions which
exist everywhere. Among the Christians,
among the Buddhists, among the Mussul-
mans saw wealth and atfiuence on one
side and abject poverty on The other.
| With hat eye which God had given his
soul he saw, as ne believed, why these
things were so, and he started about to
remedy them"
Mr. Furuseth said that as seaman he
was proud to pay tribute to Henry George,
Tor be was always the seaman's irIend.
c. E. Hawkes., president of Typograph-
ical Union No 81, spoke OF Henry George s
life in this city as a printer. He explained
that it was owing to his knowledge of the

That is the ukase of the police. In this

Captain John Spillane set the ball roll
ing few days ago by causing the arrest
OF Alexander Cohen for -elling pools on
the races at the Whale Saloon, 80 Third
street. He sold pools to the arresting Off
GERS, who were dressed in citizens clothes,
and they did not waste any time in s-cur-
ing a warrant. Cohen had 10 accompany
the evidence to the Southern station.
Despite this warning, which showed
that the police intended to permit no
pools to be sold on the races outside the
grounds, as the ordin ance requires, others
have kept up the practice. Accord ngly
Officers Hyman and Rice were given a
special detail 10 investigate the matter
and see how many persons would fall
