The Kansas LGa0yer, edited by the
law students of the State University,
has declined the readymade gold
standard editorials sent out by Mark
Hanna. In its refusal The LGsOyer
says: "Our magazine represents the,
law department Of Kansas University,
in the senior class of which there were
thirty one who voted for Bryan, the
remaining twenty being Socialists,
ProhibitiOnlsts and Republicans. We
give you this just sS q sample of the
feeling that exists In our institution" )"
Kingman Journal: "At the com
ing session of the Legislature 10 all
probability bill will be introduced
providing for open range for Kingmsn
county, and it Is not unlikely that 1t
will be made for other parts of the
State. If this becomes a law it will
work no hardship on anyone. The
grain farmer will be protected, and
the man who has q few cattle will be
greatly benefited. A very few people
object to it, but as yet no valid reason
has been advanced why 1t should not
be done."
Superintendent Stryker has prepared
a bill which will be introduced into the
Legislature providing for district own
ership Of school books. The bill does not
urge uniformity of books of any kind.
Each district is permitted to choose
the books desired and purchase them
by contract. The prices of all books
will be set arbitrarily. Forestalling
that possibly the book concerns might
refuse to negotiate with the districts
for the supply of books at the prices
fixed, an ultimatum will be attached
to the bill providing that the Stata
shall adopt State uniformity in case a
boycott is declared by them.
United States District Attorney
Perry has begun an action In the Fed
-eral court to dissolve the Kansas City
Live Stock Exchange for violation of
the antitrust law. The petition
charges that the rules of the exchange
which fix the rates of commission to be
charged and the number of persons
which may be employed by members
of the exchange, and the rule which
provides for boycott of the business
of a member which has been expelled,
are contrary to law. The petitioner
prays that the exchange be dissolved
and its members permanently eDjoined
from entering into any combination to
deprive shippers Of live stock free &C
cess to the Kansas City market.
Senator Young in the Independence
Star and KGnSGn tells the facts in re.
gard to the charge Of desertion lodged
against W. H. Linton, the Kansas
Presidential Elector. Mr.. Linton served
through the war, and when the war
was over applied for discharge. OH
cIal red tape delayed the discharge, and
after lying in camp for three months
after peace had been declared he left
the service, as hundreds of men were
doing every day at that time. Mr.. |

above half of what we pay for them In
Kansas was passed In Indiana In 1889
and they have been getting the benefit
Of 1t ever since. District ownership

Speaking of length Of service by
reform papers, it appears that the Of
tawa Journal, Junction City Tribune,
the Belleville Freeman and PlesSsnton
Herald have the record, in the order
named. The Ottawa Journal has been
published by E. H. Snow at Ottawa
during its entire life and has always
favored reform principles. The 1'rib-
tIpe has been continuously published
at Junction City but has been In charge
Of ex-Congressmsn John Davis,
Charles Davis and A. 9. Psttee. The
Freeman was started at Logan in 1880
by H. N, Boyd, who is still in charge,
but 1t has moved once or twice. The
Herald comes next. Its location and
present owner have been the same for
many years, Mr.. Latimer having be-
come connected with it when a mere
boy. These old-timers have done a
great work under the most adverse
circumstances imaginable.
In recent issue of the ADVOCATE
it was stated that Judge Schoonover
would appoint E. L. Eaton of Cherry.
vale as his Clerk and that this action
was due to the fact that the latter had
befriended the Judge at time when
he needed friends, This is a mistake,
in that Eaton is q protege of the
Judges. 1t appears that Judge SchOon'
over took an interest In Eaton when
he was mere boy, without home,
and friendless. The Judge took him
into his family and did for him as he
would for son, and as result Mr..
Eaton is to.dsy q man whose character
and walk of life is such as to make the
Judge proud of the. fact that he In
terested himself in him. Mr.. Eaton
made q speech in the convention at
which the Judge was nominated In
which he told the story Of his life,
which showed to the convention that
Judge SchoonoVer has heart which
beats for humanity. If Eaton is given
the place, which it Is said he will, the
Judge will have named q man in whom
he will have the utmost confidence.

Now we are todd that not only are

well as several other diseases ione To
sarded as individual, but that heuihA
tism may be transmitted from one pr
son to another by contact as well a. u
heredity. This is the more alarming NC.
cause rheumatism, for which thefe are
moro sure cures than a pharmacists can
compound in a week. is virtually incur,
able by drugs and is the disease OF al
diseases that is not understood oy 'he
medical profession. Nobody knows eX-
actlv or Approximately what rheuma'
tism is. II is described with a high de-
gree of positiyeness in medical books,
but the fact that Affections wholly un-
like are classed under the general heaa
Of rheumatism is proof that there Is no
certain knowledge Of its character. IL
is found TO be associated with disorders
of the throat and stomach and with dis
tinctly nervous affections. The varieties
run from muscular rheumatism TO neu-
ralgia, yet as to what tissues are most
involved In the worst form OF the dis
ease and in what manner they are III
volyed there are as many opinions as
there are varieties Of rheumatism.
The rheumatic patient, who some
times suffers all the pangs of govt, has
a hard enough time of 1T at best With
out being regarded AS a center OF phys
ical as well as moral pestilence. He IS
irritable, pu~gnacio,ls, impatient, un
grateful and profau ne. His immediate
relations bear with these mortal infirm-
tiles because Of the obvious reality OF
his sufferings. They generously put
themselves within the range and reach
of his shoes or whate yer missiles he has
81 hand, in order that he may vary the
nonotony of pain with the pleasure OF
personal assault. To nnoun the con
taaiousness of rheumatism is to drive
away from his bedside all sympathetic
and enduring friends. When they wit
ness the moral decay Of a good man In
the clutches of this disease, they are
naturally disposed TO save themselves
by flight from a like condition.
What the victims of rheumatism have
a right to maintain is that the doctors
know too little about the disease. They
are too helpless in its violent stage to
have any warrant for further dogmatic
afirmations about it. II rheumatism is
to be classed among the contagious dis.
eases, 1t will be necessary TO regulate
the Turkish bath establishments as we
do smallpox hospitals or they will be-
come centers from which rheumatism
will radiate like cholera from oriental
wells. Man is kept busy enough dodg,
ing the microbes of other diseases with,
out being compelled to ward off rheu.

What Lincoln Had Learned.

Mr. Albert Blair, writing in the st.

Lincoln, remarks especially upon his
unaffectedness, and in 80 doing relates
a story which may prove an enoour-
aeement 10 readers who have sometimes
found themselves ignorant where they
had supposed themselves we'll informed.
In February, 1865, Mr.. Blair was
present at a White House reception. a
general reception, open to everybody.
Mr.. Lincoln was attended by Judge Da-
vid Davis, who took the names Of all
corners and introduced them to the
president.
OF course there was q crowd, and no.
body had time for more than q wore
and a handshake. Mr.. Blair was pre-
scented to the president, and then step
ped aside tt watch the show. Mr.. Lin
coin and Judge Davis carried on a con-
versation, consistently interrupted though
it was.
"Now." says Mr.. BLAIR. "it was

TObaccOniSt, Hit Hard.

The Dingley law has caused panic
among the importers of tobacco, who
declare that one short p4ragra oh in
the law means loss TO them of thou
sands of dollars every year. The para
graph is a part of section 33 of the act,
which cOmpelS importers to pay duty
on tobacco at the weight it goes into
The bonded warehouses. This takes
from the tobacco men a privilege that
has for many years been accorded to
them by the tariff laws. Under the
Wilson act and previous laws i'm porters
have had their tobacco reweighed at
the time of it's withdrawal from bonded
warehouses and on this weight duties
were collected.
The weight of tobacco is generally
reduced during the bonded period by
evaporation.
When tobacco arrives from a long
ocean voyage it is frequently INSULT
cieutly cured aud has absorbed large
percentage of moisture. This moisture
evapOrateS in the warehouses. tx
pOrters estimate that TT Ell Importers save
$50 to $40 on a bale on Sumatra and
sometimes as high as SO bale on
Havana tobacco. Importers will now
gain not ing by delay, but must pay
duties at Sl.S5 per pound on the weight
of their tobacco at the time of its ar
rival. They estimate that the loss to
importers in New York alone will be
$500, 900 year
