half OF the calendar year 1897 and the am our

same period in 1896. This is the testimony OF
the commercial agencies tables. Here Is an
encouraging indication. The bank clearances

OF general trade throughout the country is on
the increase, while the figures of commercial
mortality indicate that trade is on solder

How to Make Your Town Prosper.

OF course every citizen of this town
wants to see it prosper. Some of
them don't seem to understand the
best way to do it. One way is to al
low yourself to be gulled by the slick
advertisements of somebody III Gin
cinnati or Pittsburg into believing
that you can get things a cent or two
cheaper there. Then send your mon
ely away off where it may never, by
any possibility get back here again.
1t helps a town 50 beautifully to have
a merchant or two fail once in while,
or TO have our stores standing empty
while we help build up other places.
Another good way to help our town
is to persistently decry all attempts
to do anything here, and to declare
that we are not going to do anything.
We have right to complain when
other people decry our town, but we
have a perfect right to run it down
ourselves, and it helps SO.
Then, whenever there is an eXcur-
sion go to some neighboring town
and be beguiled into buying all the
goods you can bring home and come
home and advertise the merchants in
that other town. Proclaim from the
houseSteps that you can buy goods
ever SO much cheaper of them than
you can get them at home. Don't
pay any attention to the fact that
these men pay no taxes III our town,
and that they spend 10 money here,
that the low prices they give are only
bait for trade that they would not
otherwise get. Don't pay any atten-
ton to the other fact, that in order
to save few cents you had to spend
II dollar or so for railroad fare and
lose II days time. Those are matters
of no account. You get some things
two cents cheaper than you could
have bought them of a home mer-
chant. Or course you paid cash on
the nail and you always expect the
home merchant to trust you till it is
perfectly convenient for you to pay,
but that's no matter. Give the for
eign merchant los o free advertising
and make it all the harder for your
merchant to compete with him. And
then curse everybody in business
in our town becase they don't do bet
ter. If that cou!s2 persevered in
dosen't make your town prosper it is

Pickpockets in Kansas under Nc
kinley administration may strike
some people as an anomaly. What is
he doing there and what does he hope
to get out OF the pocket of a Kansan
who refuses to accept goldstandard
prosperity? In seems homogeneous.
But there was a pickpocllet, and Bry-
an got him. The report continues:
The crowd shouted out Let us
hang the pickpocketr" when the
great leader of Democracy urged them
by a simple shake of the head to leave
him to the law. They obeyed.
Lucky picllpocket! He might have
been drawn and quartered-wh can
tell from what fate the great leaders
head saved him?
But all this was merely an incident
to the greatest event that ever hap
pened in Kansas. That was Mr.. Bry-
ans speech. We are told that EX-
Senator Ingalls, who sat six feet in
front of him watching his eloquent
lips and burning eye in mute aston
ishment, is reported to have said:
That man is fitted for empire. He is
an extraordinary genius"
One reporter watched the features
of Ingalls, during Bryan's pounding of
logic, and the effects manifested were
marvellous. However, we are left in
the dark as 70 what happened to Mr.
Ingalls, face, which is spoken Of as if

Communicated.
To the Editor ofThe Republican.
1t has been reported that some of
my friends will not support the ticket
nominated at the recent Republican
convention. | want to state that
while it is true that we would have
liked very much TO have had the
nomination for the State Senate, we
were met with disappointment and
defeat but we want it distinctly un-
derstood that we, as Republicans, bow
to the will of the majority, that we
desire the success Of the Republican
party more than the qualification of
personal ambition, and i'll this contest
the friends who stood so Loyalty by
me and to whom | am so deeply in
debted for their loyalty and true
friendship will be found with me
Loyalty and earnestly working for the
success Of the entire ticket. As far as
this district is concerned, defeated
though we were in the convention,
this district will give the largest Re
publican majority ever given to any
county ticket.
If our friends the enemy are build
ing their hopes of success on Rcpub-
lican apathy and opposition Of Repub-
licans Go Our ticket, they will be sadly
disappointed. What have We to hope
for by the election of Democrats in our
county: Anything on the score Of
economy: Let the past answer. The
highest tax rate we ever had was
under 4 Democratic board of County
Commissioners. Anything by way of
improvement in school affairs? En-
phatically, NO. Need we expect a
fair and equitable distribution Of the
public school fund by the election of
Democrats to the legislature? OF
course not. They are responsible for
the present unjust, infamous, iniqui-
tous law that is robbing our people
and defrauding our children of what
they are justly entitled to. a Demo
cratic Governor signed this unjust
law. Can we look to them for the
remedy: If you think so look at the
record Of the Democratic legislature.
When . bill was presented forts con-
siderati0n TO make right this terrible
iniquity, which is worse than high
way robbery, the bills was not even
reported from the committee. If
there vas nothing else at stake in
this campaign this alone should cause
every Republican who loves the child
rem Of our county to stand by the
ticket from top to bottom.
Can we afford to elect men who
would vote for a man for the United
States Senate who has no fixed prin-
ciplcs on the money question; who
voted to put the farmers wool on the
free list? Can we afford TO support a
party that has such record as the
Democratic party? 4 thousand times
no. As we look at the past and think
Of the future, of the questions of vast
and vital Importance at issue in this
campaign, everything demands that
every true Republican should do his
whole duty for the entire ticket: that
we should forget Our defeats and our
disappointmcnts in the convention
and think now Of and work for the
success of the party Of progress, of
