REFERRING to the Democratic candi
date for Senator, the Herald gives many
points which it considers show him to be
strong and good man. 1t quotes his
popularity and recalls his election to the
Assembly twice That is so, but when he
ran for that Office the county was set off in
Districts which had been so arranged as
to make one Democratic That is the one
in which Packer showed his great popu-
larity." He is foxy fellow and before
allowing his name to be used for a nomi-
nation, studies the situation and if he
thinks there is chance to slip in on the
mistake of the other side or because of the
weakness of his opponent, he is fast
enough to accept. This time he will find
he has gone wrong. The Herald calls
him an independent man, other people
give it another name-something like
"overbearing." That che honestly rep
resented the people of this county" when
he voted for the race track bill has been

The Exact Vote.

All the official returns of the specia
election have been received at the Score
tary of States Office, with the exception
of those from Union county. The returns
were required to be filed with the Score
tary of State not later than Saturday. The
official figures show that there were
12l ,070 votes cast and 874 rejected ballots
This is less than one-third of the vote cas-
in the state at the Presidential election
which was 81, 1872.
The official figures, with those from
Union county, which are known to be
correct, show that the anti-gamblinl
amendment was passed by majority Of
80l. The ad interim appointment amend
ment was carried by a majority of ,43t
and the woman's suffrage amendment wai
defeated by a majority of 10, 149
There has been so much difficulty ir
obtaining correct returns from this cleo
ton that the exact returns as recorded in
the Secretary of States Office from each
county are appended:

AT the Interstate Fair, where poll
tics was much discussed, Senator Stokes
of Cumberland, announced that he will be
a candidate for reelection next fall.
While as general thing outside counties
have no business interfering with their
neighbors, we cannot refrain from ex-
pressing the hope that Senator Stokes will
be successful in his efforts to succeed
himself. In addition to warm personal
friendship for this brilliant young states
man, we consider him not merely a Local
candidate, but one in whom the entire
state has right to feel an interest Lo
cality does not figure in his efforts fol
honest legislation, but he carefully in
quires into what is best for the state al
large. He is an honest, conscientious of
hcer, and as long as he is willing to serve
the people of Cumberland, just 80 lon,
should they accept his services.

Mr.. Bryan has just sampled the Kan
sas brand of prosperity. He attended the
State Fair at Wichita last week and for his
share in the exercises was handed check
for nearly $4,000. He remarked to the
committee that he had never before earned
amount was more than had been guaran-
teed. Perhaps the thought occurred to
him that the one days receipts could be
exchanged for $500 Mexican silver dollars
Why would it not be good idea for Mr..
Bryan to convert his earn ings in this way
with the expectation of doubling them at
a stroke in the year 1900? 1t is possible
that he caught glimpse of General Pros
perity at Wichita in full Dress with golden
epaulets. But it is more likely that Mr..
Bryan was looking in another direction,
deeply immersed in thought on the Gala
mitous condition ofthe country Louis

The very small vote of New Jersey on
the constitutional amendments is held by
the press of this State and of the country
generally to have pronounced the doom
of the referendum. 1t is certain that with
occasional exceptions public Judgment in
the form of ballot, upon a legislative
proposition, will call out so small vote
as to be at times farcical and even dan
gerous. There was quite strong effort
made by the newspapers and pulpits of
our State to induce the people to come out
and vote on the constitutional amend
ments. And yet only about one-third of a
full vote was cast. In nine cases out of
ten the reference of laws to the people
would be unattended by any appeal to
them. Many thousands would not even
know that the appeal had been made to
their judgment; other thousands would
not understand the merits of the proposed
amendments, and many more would not
care enough about the matter to take the
trouble to vote upon it-Pateyson Press.
At last Kansas has too much money.
The surplus in the banks of that State is
larger than was ever known before and
the cash circulation among the people
seems undiminished.
10 The banks cannot loan their money and
are worried to know what to do with the
enormous deposits on which they are pay
ing four per cent interest.
!, At this time the people of the State are
engaged in moving an enormous wheat
crop and $4,000, 900 bushels of last years
corn crop, and if they do not need cash to
handle such an enormous volume of bust
ness, the banks are anxious to know what
they will need money for later.
There is one good result of protracted
hard times. The people of Kansas, in
common with the rest of the country,
have been economizing and bending every
effort to get out of debt. They have done
that very nearly and still have money to
spare. The danger is that people will be-
gin specializing and bring debt and disas-
ter upon themselves again just as they are
beginning to get their heads above water

PAST actions are very fair indication
of ones future course. Howard E. Pack
er, when member of the Assembly, voted
for race-track gambling, and has nevel
expressed any regrets for his action. Dc
the people of this county think him a SAFE
man to represent them? Even if there i.
to be no more race-track legislation will
there not be other matters equally import
ant for the public welfare? To elect him
Senator now will be an approval of hi.
past course, and we do not believe oul
honest farmers will agree to that.

BECAUSE the anti-gambling amendment
was defeated it is argued that that issue is
dead, and that Democratic Legislators will
be powerless on the subject even if favor
ably inclined towards it. Do not take any
chances. Billy" Thompson and Tom
Flynn are still alive and would control a
Democratic Legislature, should one be
elected, in the same high handed manner
that characterized them when they were
members of that body.

parties who controlled the convention OF

HAVE you forgotten the record of the
Democratic party when in control of our
statef 1t was of such nature as to cause
the honest people of the state to arise in
their indignation and make an entire
change. We do not believe anybody de-
sires a return to the government of the
past. The election of Democratic Sena-
tor and Assemblymen from this county
would be step toward restoring to power
