at would be a great mistake to elect
George w. C. Jones for city attorney
over George Adams said one of the old
est and best known Democratic lawyers
at the court house yesterday. Il do not
at all Gnticiuate such a result, but the
people should be very careful
There has always been kindly feeling
shown Jones by the people of Wichita re-
gard.ess eff politics, but when man gets
gay he is liable 10 lose this kindly feel
ing. Voting for Mr.. Jones for justice of
the peace and Mr.. Jones for city attorney
are two very different things. The people
OF Wichita have always been half way
dispose, IT, retain Jones in the office Of
justice Of the peace for life, for reasons
publicly known, but they do rot care TO
give him a place he is not fitted for Mr.
Jones made great mistake when he quit
the party that has always kept him In
good Office, considering his ability. He
also made great mistake when he as
pired 10 position that the people do not
believe he is competent to fill No man ir
the city is better fitted for the position,
by reason Of his absolute honesty and

THE Toledo Bee is in the hands OF
a receiver. The court has appointed
VIM. Beatty receiver, under a bond
of $4,000. Thos. A. Starr, president
of the Bee company, filed the petition
asking for receiver, after the North
ern National Bank had taken q judg
ment against the concern for $4,000
Mr.. Starr states that he is the owner
of the majority of the stock, and
that for the past year the Bee com
pany has not been paying institu
tion, owing to the dullness of busi
ness caused by the hard times. HI
states that there is about $32, 900 nov

THE effects of Cleveland's thirst for
vengeance has at last reached Ohio,
in the removal of Joseph H. Bowling
as venueIcollector of the Cincinnati
district. Charges were trumped up
against him setting forth that he
raised money among his employees
for campaign purposes, but the real
offense committed, says the Enquirer,
was his espousal OF the cause of Will
liam ]. Bryan for the Presidency last
November. A blacker case ofingrati-
tude in politics has never been ex-
hibited. For the first time the De-
mocracy of Ohio has been PERMITTED
to witness the actual performances
of the Administration that calls itself
after the party founded by Jefferson.
In other protions of the country
Democrats have felt the rude lash of
the party taskmaster, but it is not
until the present hour that its sting
was known in this state. Mr.. Dowl-
ing has been q warm supporter of
the Administration. At the last
state convention he brought a solid
A'gold" delegation with him from
Montgomery County. At the Ma
tional Convention his home city was
represented by an unflinching advo-
cate of the gold standard, Hon.
Charles Patterson, Of Dayton. Be-
hind him at Chicago marched two
splendid political clubs shouting for
Cleveland and monometallism. When
the convention ended and it was de-
cided by the Democracy to support
Bryan and free silver, Bowling re-
fused to turn traitor to this party.
Courageously he fought the battle
almost alone, for even his warmest
friends, men of affluence and power,
were deserters from the field. For
his loyalty to party Mr.. Bowling is
eond lmned to lose his office. Dowl-
is political martyr. Civil Service is
q grand humbug.

Culture of the Sugar Beet.

Numerous attempts to establish
beet fugar factories in America have
failed, and the principal cause of
failure has been stated to be the in
ability to secure sufficient supply
of beets. The culture of the sugar
beet involves different methods from
those pursued with ordinary farm
crops, and in order that factory
may be successfully started in any
neighborhood the farmers of that
vicinity should have had some previ-
Gus experience in the culture of this
crop.
Since the sugar beet is a very valu-
able stock food and is cultivated by
many farmers for this purpose alone,
the experience necessary to It's sue
cessful culture may be obtained
without loss, though no sugar fac
tory should ever be located in the
neighborhood; and in view of the
probable development of the beet
sugar industry in Northern Ohio the
Experiment Station recommends to
the farmers of that region that they
begin Immediately to get the practi-
cal experience necessary to the sue
cessful management Of this crop.
Sugar beets and mangolds have
been grown for number of years by
the Ohio Experiment Station for
stock food and the experience thus
gained is summarized below.
This crop may be successfully
grown on any soil well adapted tc
potatoes or corn, the ideal soil being
o rich loan, somewhat sandy and
well drained. The two extremes Of
heavy clays and light muck lands
should have been avoided, and drain
age, natural or artificial, is essential
The ideal site for o beet crop is {
clean clover sod. 1t should be pillow
ed not less than eight inches deep, a.
early in the spring as possible ant
most thoroughly pulverized.
II a garden seed drill is at hand th'
seed may be sown with that, setting

Board of Trade.

At an informal meeting OF citizens
last Saturday morning, held in the
Probate court room, the preliminary
steps were taken for organizing a
board of trade for Napoleon. Messrs.
s. M. Heller, R. w. Cahill and }. z.
Ragan were selected as a committee
to secure incorporation papers and
draft a constitution and bylaws reg
ulating an organization Of this kind.
This is move in the right direction,
for Napoleon in the past few years
especially has felt the want and alb
solute need of an organization to look
after its interests, and as matters OF
vast Importance to our growing little
city will likely. come up within the
present year, the movement is oppor,
tune and none too soon. All business
men and property holders should be,
come activesmembers of the board Of
trade and lend their help and influ'
ence in furthering the interests oi
Napoleon and surrounding country.

Iris fashionable to blackguard the
Wilson tariff law, but figures show
the foreign trade OF the year 1895 to
have been the largest this country
ever had. Our exports amounted to
81, ,OO0, 900, 900, while our imports were
$3.50, 600, 900, leaving a balance OF
trade in our favor of $326, 900, 900.

es apart. Large beets are not de-
sirable for sugar making, as they
contain smaller percentage of su-
gar than the medium sized ones. and
for the same reason medium seets
are more valuable for stock food.
After thinning, the weeds must be
kept down and the surface kept
loose. To accomplish this at least
cost, some implement as the Thomas
harrow or Breed weeder should be
used at least once week from the
date of planting until the tops shade
the ground, going over the crop at
least once before the plants appear
above the surface. If this is neglec-
ted the hoeing required may easily
double the cost of the crop.-Ohtc

What the Grange is Doing For
the Farmers.

The best fire insurance for farm
ers is in the Grange Mutual Aid AS
sociation. 1t has stood the test for
over 25 years. 1t costs the farmer 81
for q policy to pay the running ex-
penses of the company, and it costs
the farmer less than half what any
stock company charges. All it costs
the policy holders is the actual loss
by fire or lightning.
The Grange is the promoter OF
Farmers Institutes, the instigator OF
the pure food law, and has crushed
the binder twine trust. The Grange
has competent committee at every
state capital when legislatures are in
session and also at Washington when
Congress is in session to look after
the interests of the farmers.
The Grange is doing and has done
more for the farmer than all other
organizations combined. 1t teaches
the young men and ladies to be read
ers, writers and speakers in public.
The majority of young boys and girls
who have been raised In the Grange
can rise before any audience and read
or speak as fuently as an ordinary
lawyer or minister.
The question arises, why is not
every good farmer a member of the
Grange? There is but one answer
and that is they don't realize the
benefit they can derive from it.
