KEEP YOUR HEADS.

We observe with regret a DISPOSE
tion on the part of some Republican
papers to begin the campaign for the
nominations of 1898 instead of keep
ing still and saving wood. lisa
long time before state officers and
congressman are to be named. and
there is no use in Republicans chew
ing each others ears or jabbing each
other under the ribs at this stage of
the contest. The great rank and file
of the party do not care particularly
who are the candidates. so they are
good men. The Republican ticket
will be elected in 1898, partly because
it is Republican ticket and partly
because it is not PopuliSt ticket
The people have had all the Populism,
boodleism, in Kansas they care for,
and a great many voters will mark
their ticket next year on the princi-
pal of ''any old thing but Pop
1t will be easy to elect the Republi-
can ticket in 1898, provided our fell
lows don't get their hind legs over

jim BUTLER FIXED.
Former Abileneite Makes Leedy Come
to Time.

1t takes an Abilene man to gel
what he goes after. jim Butler has
done it. Gov. Leedy started out with
a high and mighty attitude. He
wanted everybody to know that he
was the only pebble on the beach, and
that they must approach him on
Bonded knee. Strange to say, the
great majority of his appointees and
vast number Of Populist pie hunters
did it. But there were three Pops
who refused to bow to "his supreme
effectiveness" They called his bluff
and, as consequence, all three are
now holding lucrative jobs under the
administration.
Frank Elliot was made deputy coal
oil inspector but raised roar and
was made executive clerk and threat
ened scandal was thus hushed up.
Judge G. Z. Foote wanted something
and made such howl that Leedy had
him appointed one Of McNall's high
priced examiners. He is now for
Leedy.
The third man to force Governor
Leedy to come down off the roost was
James Butler, Of Topeka, but former
ly Of Abilene. Butler being turned
down for half dozen or so offices,
built a little fire under Leedy. 1t
kept growing until the governor saw
that something had to be done to
quench 1t. Butler was working up,
sentiment for a straight Populist
ticket next year and the idea seemed
quite popular. Leedy sent for Butler
and made him grain weigher in the
state grain inspectors department at
Kansas City, Kas. Now Butler is for
Leedy.
While Elliott, Foote and Butler are
now holding official positions and are
administration men, they are not
falling to their knees every time
Leedy comes in sight. They know
that they got their jobs by calling the
governors bluff and they propose to
hold them by the same tactics. They
are the only appointees who absolute
ly forced the governor to give them
places. Others now propose to fol-
low suit. The way to get things out
Of Leedy is to scare him.
