has ever held. The work Of keeping
up a reform paper during the life Of
the Freeman has not been easy, but 1t
has been accomplished. While Mr..
Boyd is occupied with his official
duties, Miss Georgia, his daughter, has
charge of the paper and she is making
a success of it. Until recently the OF
tawa Journal was the oldest reform
paper in Kansas. It suspended publ
cation few weeks ago and the record
now goes to the Belleville Freeman.
Ex-senator D. McTaggart, Of Mont
gomery county, was shot and killed
near his home at Liberty last Tuesday.
He was attending sale Of some prop
erty which had been levied on to sat
isfy a Judgment which he held against
one Shesley. During the sale Shesley
walked up and shot him in the breast
near the heart, infiicting wound from
which he died within q few hours. Mr.,
McTaggart's 14-year-old son endeav-
ored to protect him, and was shot, the
balls injuring his hands badly. Sen
ator McTaggart had served in the
Legislature as Representative in 1888,
1885 and 1887, and in the Senate in
1889, 1891, 1898 and 1896 AT the time
of his death he was member Of the
board of directors Of the Hutchinson
RefOrmatory, having been appointed
by Governor Leedy to succeed Senator
Wallace, who died and who was also
one Of his appointees. The Senator was
a Republican until last year, when ne
supported Bryan, and his county
changed a Republican majority of
about 500 to a silver majority Of little
larger figure.

Politics in Text Books.

In the text book on civil govern
ment which has been adopted by the
State Commission the following ap-
pears:
Treasury notes, commonly called
'greenbacks, are a promise of the gov
ernment to pay From 1861 to 1878
they were not redeemable, and for that
reason floated below par. After 1878
the promise Of the government to take
them for all dues brought them up to
par"
A large number Of the books are said
to be printed. State Superintendent
stryker says that the book shall not
go out with this matter in 1t. He very
sensibly takes the position that all
questions which are Of political ma
ture should not be referred to- The
above paragraph would settle an inn
pOrtant political question in the gold
standard adherents' favor.

National Irrigation Congress.

The sixth annual National Irrigation
Congress will be held at Lincoln, Neb.,
September %, 20 and 80. Those en-
titled to seats are members of the
State and Territorial Irrigation Com
missions, five delegates at large to be
appointed by the Governors of each of
the Western States and Territories, one
delegate from each regularly organized
irrigation, agricultural and horticultu-
raj society and society of engineers,
irrigation companies, agricultural col
leges and commercial bodies. Accred-
tied representatives Of foreign govern
ments and Congressman, Senators and
Governors are accorded honorary mem
bership.
The questions for discussion in the
National Irrigation Congress are Of
vital interest not only to the people of
arid and semi-arid America, but to
every section Of our common country.
Each succeeding session has been
marked by an increasing interest, in
telligence of discussion and broaden
ing Of plans locking to the reclamation
of the arid West and to the establish
ment Of Independent means of liveli-
hood for the millions who are yet home
less in a land of unparalleled resources,
with a possible destiny beyond the
most extravagant dreams of the Opti-
mist. Problems of both national and
State legislation are to be considered.
The papers and discussions will ema-
nate from authorities Of distinction,
who have attained their eminence by
practical work, laborious study and
philOsOphic research. Subjects will be
assigned with reference to the capa-
bilities of the authors to deal with
them in the most thorough manner
possible under the time limit neces-
sarily imposed by the program commit
tee. Every effort possible will be ex-
erted to make this session the greatest
in results Of any convention in the his
tory Of the movement.
Liberal preparations are being made
by the thrifty and progressive people
of Lincoln to royalty receive those who
attend. Ample hotel accommodations
will be procurable Railroad rates of
one fare from points between Chicago
and the Pacific coast. e. r. Moses, of
Great Bend, Kas., is chairman Of the
National Executive committee, and G.
M. Heintz, Los Angeles, Cal, is Sec

it's right-Of-way It got them without
our consent by process Of law by
which they we're appraised. When a
township wants a new highway private
land lss often cOnfscated against the
owners wishes and he is compelled to
accept for his land what a board of ap-
praisers choose to allow him. Private
property of every description is subject
to confiscatiOn for the public good in
time Of war; and individuals them
selves are subject to draft (or confsca-
tion) and compelled to accept as wages
whatever the government chooses TO
give them, For the public good we
believe in the seizure and appraise-
ment Of every industry that is now con-
trolled by the trusts. Squeeze out the
water from the stocks, freeze out the
salary -grabbers and the salaried lob
byists in the Legislatures, Congress
and courts and make the present own
ers take what the property Is worth
minus the dividends heretofore paid on
watered stocks. The result will be that
the government will absorb these in
dustries for the expense Of the ap-
praisement and the subtraction"
G. G. Clemens is credited with the
following on socialism: Socialism is
not cooperative commonwealth, but
that which some believe a cooperative
commonwealth would bring about
Socialism itself is an ideal state of
society; a conception of how people
should live and act. II cannot be or
ganized. 1t cannot be compelled by
any governmental regulations. It is
not q thing Of system. It is not an
economic theory, although o new eco
Romic theory would result from It. So
cialism in itself is wholly ethical, and
will be an existing fact only when the
ethics Of the world shall be In accord
with the new life men must lead. The
golden age Of classic tale, the kingdom
Of heaven hoped for by the Jews the
millennium Of the Christians before Con-
stantine were but older names for the
very same dream known as socialism
now; and it Is still as true as In Cali
lee-'the kingdom Of heaven Is with
you Men confuse proposed plans for
inaugurating socialism with socialism
itself. A railroad company is not a
railroad. An insurance company Is not
insurance. Neither would a cooper.
ative commonwealth be socialism. A
cooperative commonwealth, in short,
Is no more socialism than q hen-coOp
Is fried chicken. Your coop may keep
your poultry together till you can have
fried chicken. You see the point to the
parable?"

APPLES AND LION SKINS.
Fine Specimens of the Products of
the Sierra Nevada.

Judge A. G. Hinkson returned yester-
day from a weeks sojourn in the noun
tains Of FL Dorado County, east of Pla-
cerville- He reports having had a most
enjoyable outing. The Judge brought
home some splendid specimens of ap-
pies grown in the Sierra Nevada, meas
uring thirteen inches and upward in
circumference.
AS for fish stories, he has a stock on
hand that viii last through the long
winter evenings and until the trout be-
gin to bite again next spring. Judge
Hinkson found the woods full of game,
large and small. As a trophy of the
chase, he brought with him the skin
of a mountain lion, or panther, meas
uTfng eight feet from tip to tip. 1t is
a beautiful specimen, and the Judge
intends having it prepared for a floor
rug. He made an evasive reply when
asked who it was that stood between
him and the lion when the fatal shot
was fired, and there is g, suspicion that
he did not cut any figure in the
achievement
However, the Judge has the lion skin
to show, and that is circumstantial evil
dence that will be hard TO overcome.
If any one doubts taat he killed the lion
it is for him 20 prove an alibi on the
Judge.

Stockton is making great preparations
to receive the excursionists. The local
papers state that they expect 800 Wis

will put on four minute service to ac-
conlmOdate the crowds, and the papers
say there is more excitement over this
game than any played there in recent
years.

A DROVE OF HOGS.
Horsemen Chased Them Over Peo.
Piles Private Lawns.

Residents up town have been much
troubled lately by stock of different
kinds being driven through the streets
and running into their yards, as many
have taken down their front fences.
Day before yesterday the spectacle
was witnessed of several hundred hogs
being driven along the street, many Of
which were on the sidewalk and many
running over the lawns in front of res
licences. while men on horseback were
riding on the sidewalks and through the
yards, driving their animals, regardless
of the damage done. 1t would seem
as if some way could be devised where
by stock could be driven through the
city without damaging private grounds.
