A FEW weeks ago the Kansas Breeze
sent out some inquiries to country ed
itors asking a number Of questions as
regards the enforcement of the pro-
hibitory law and last week published
number Of answers sent in to same.
Fred ,Trigg Of the Garrett Eagle
answered as follows:
1.-THE law is effectively enforced, especially in
this city. Most of the jointkeepers are now in
jail. Honest officials can enforce the law.
Dishonest officials can not be made to do 10.
Don't favor the repeal of prohibition. We be
lieve the moral, financial social and politica |
interests of the state are arrayed against the
whiskey business. Kansas has less trouble
with the question than any otherEstate in the
union. Whiskey is always an outlaw and the
best way to regulate" it is to send the man to
jail who sells it, instead Of sending him to the
legislature or the city council as they do in
Missouri. 1t is noticeable that in high licenae
states the saloonkeeper is leading factor in
politics. In Kansas he is just ''jointkeeper,"
and couldn't be elected delegate to a township
convention. We've put the right brand ON him
in this state Let's keep it,"

THE report that gold is plentiful at
Clondyke in the southeastern part OF
Alaska, is attracting the attention OF
many of our citizens and from many
town came the report that parties are
getting ready to start to this far of
country in search Of fortunes. They
may be successful but the chances are
that those who stay at home and
hustle will fare far better than lots Of
those who 60. Only one in hundred
who went to California in 1919 came
back with any money. All made
money bnt the expense of living is
very high and the OPPORTUNITY for let
thug loose Of money in other ways, very
great. Better remain in Kansas and
gather the gold IN sight than go to
Clondykc.

Business Sill Improving.

- The two great commercial agen.
cies Of the country, Bradstreet's and
Dun's, report a continued progress in
nearly every line of business. The
leading feature Of the weeks move
ment is, of course, the firm wheat mar.
ket, with prices 20 per cent. higher
than they were year ago, in spite OF
crop that will aggregate about 1O0,-
100000 bushels more than last years
yield in the United States. This gives
promise of unusually good times among
the farmers who have already been
sufficiently favored by returning pros
perity to be able to hold their great
yields for the greater advance
they belive will come in consequence
Of the large export orders.
Gold is becoming more plentiful, the
increase being noticed at both the
banks and minis. This is not due to
the returns from Alaska, though in
time, important contributions may
come from that source. 1t is the re-
suit Of general activity in all lines of
commerce and investment. Perhaps
the most significant feature Of last
weeks reports, however, is that which
indicates the coming Of great fall
trade. In many of the big cities large
orders are already placed for autumn
goods, the expectation being that by
that time business will be very sub
stantially improved and the demands
will consequently be very large. These
indications of fall business are much
earlier than usual, another evidence
of the restoration Of confidence.
Slowly but certainly the occupation
OF the calamity bowler and the silver
crank is going. May it be many year
before it returns.

IT may be true, as the Garnett Agi-
tator insists, that Mrs. Lease is max
ing brave fight against the loan
company which has foreclosed on her
home. In fact Mrs. Lease is making
a brave fight against poverty and she
is doing it in a characteristic reform
fashion by making exorbitant charges
for her own services, when she conde-
scends to give them in humanity's in
terest. w. j. Bryan is another reform
statesman who iS;willing to give the
public all the sympathy it is willing
to pay handsomely for.-Fredonia

WARTS Bill Passed.

The report of Conference commit
tee appointed by both House and Sen
ate, was agreed to by both houses last
week; at four minutes past 4 O'Clock
last Saturday, President Mckinley at
tached his signature to it and it be-
came a law, and at once went into eff
feet. The bill cannot please all politi-
cal parties, neither can all its provis-
ions be satisfactory to all the members
of any party. The United States is a
big country and the interests of the
different localities are not all the same.
No bill could possibly be found that
would give universal satisfaction.
Any tariff bill passed must be the re-
suit Of compromises. General Han
cocks remark that "the tariff is a To-
cal issue" cost.him some votes, yet it
was largely true,
The republicans everywhere are
pleased that the pledge the party gave
the country at last falls election, that
if successful, tariff bill that would
raise revenue to pay the running eX-
penses Of the government without is
suing bonds, would be passed, has been
so soon redeemed. The republicans in
congress are to be congratulated for
the good business sense they used in
preparing and enacting a tariff law in
so short time, and right here we
must remark that a majority of the
democratic members, while opposed to
the tariff bill, laid down and did not
resort to dilatory tactics to prolong
the matter. 1t is true that Jerry the
Clown, tried in many instances to
block the wheels of the lower house,
but only small minority of the oppo.
sition to the republican party backed
him up, and he finally saw he did not
cut much ice, and subsidized.
The sensible members Of the demo-
cratic party, knowing that majority
of the members Of both houses of con-
gress were in favor of enacting a tariff
measure, and would ultimately do so,
no odds how much trouble they gave.
accepted the inevitable and and stood
back and allowed the republicans to
pass their bill. In this, they were cor
rect. The party in power is response
BILE to the country for the legislation
enacted, and if it is good, to them be-
longs the credit, and if bad, the dis
credit, and the country never has to
wait long, till by vote of the people,
party enacting unwholesome laws
can be repudiated. The Dingley tar
itf law is now in full force and effect,
and it is the belief Of a large majority
of the people Of the U. S. that it will
be beneficial to the American people,
but after giving it fair trial, if not
found satisfactory, like the Wilson bill.
it will be repudiated. All good citi-
zens everywhere are in favor of giving
it fair trial before passing judgment
upon its merits.
The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1897-07-30

Now that protective tariff Law
shaped after the laws always enacted
by the Wing and Republican, parties
is in effect, the people Of the U. S.
have reason to expect revival Of bus
mess. Anyone familiar with the his
tory Of the U. S. is aware of the fact
that things have always improved un.
der protective tariff system, and on
the otherhand the county has always
suffered stagnation in business cir
Giles when anything approaching free
trade has been forced on our people.
If the Dingley bill fails to give relief,
it will be the first time in the history
of this country that times have not
improved Immediately and perceptibly
after an enactment OF this character
went into effect.

Mr.. BRYAN is travelling about the
country trying to convince the people
that prosperity is not here and is not
going to come. AT the same time he
is asking the people to contribute from
$500 to $1,000 per day for hearing him
cell them they are lot OF down-trod-
den serfs and slaves, or something
similar. 1t takes people long time
to clear the mists from their eyes and
see things in their true light. They
will see it ere long, though, and then
the idol of their eyes will be dashed to
earth, and will rise no more.-Hum-
boldt Union.

Story of the Sinking of Rosel Denied
at the Santa Fe Offices

The story sent out from Larned today
to the effect that the Santa Fe station
at Rosel, Kan, on the Larned-Jetmore
branch was swallowed by the earth
last night, is according to the statement
of the Santa Fe officials in this city
the product of some Wild-eyed fake"
artist. There has been no depot build
ing at ROsel for some time, the build
ing having been moved to another
point by the company some time ago.
There never has been a Santa Fe
agent stationed at ROsel, and in con-
sequence the depot building, which has
not been there for several months,
couldn't very we'll have been locked by
the agent, who never existed, at $50
o'clock yesterday evening as stated in
the press dispatch. The Santa Fe train
from JetmOre passed through ROsel at
