THE sale and consolidation Of the
Topeka Advocate with the News marks
an epoch in the newspaper history of
the State. Several years ago twas the
most potent political factor in X nsas.
Senator PETER has been closely con-
nected with it during most Of its i'm
portant history. 1t is now the Official
State paper, but that lends but little
financial assistance now. Tie change
will not be any assistance to the geo.
ple's party as it is to be conducted
as an independent paper. However, a
g'ance over its columns shows q
friendly attitude toward the party and
Senator PETER aud j. W. MOrphy who
have done most of the writing for the
paper are retained on the staff.

A FEW weeks ago the man Clarkson

A FEW weeks ago the man Clarkson
who has been making and publishing
the rate book" which has been used
by the insurance companies doing bus
mess in Kansas, went into court and
asked for an injunction against McNall
to restrain him from revOking the IL
censes of the companies using the
aforesaid "rate book" But although
he vent into a republican court he did
not get the injunction and the opinion
of the court stated rather plainly that
1t was not granted because the rate
book was in violation of the anti trust
law passed last winter. Now McNall
turns the tables and asks for an injunc-
tiOn against Clarkson and his rate book.
Altogether McNall is succeeding beau

The day is not very far distant when
war, with its butcheries, its barbarism,
and armies with their absolute and des-
potic organization will be matters OF
history only. To be sure, military or

which society as it learns more will

wuosE WATER?

A number Of farmers along the Ar
kansas river bottoms. perhaps u few OF
them In Shls county. but mostly in
Sedgwick, have organized to fight some
of the big ditch companies in Colorado
and enjOin them from tapping the river
and leaving it without water. Some
of them probably have bitches, perhaps
all OF them, and they calculate that a
full river is of great value 10 them.
Ex- Representative Rullege, OF SedR
wick county. one OF the old time popu
lists and we'll to do and influential
man, is ut the head of the enterprise.
If they were located iu Colorado they
would probably have no show as in that
state and probably in most states, the
man who has lirst right to water is he
who has the oldest ditch. But in an
interstate difficulty like this it 10 diff
cult to tell what principle will apply.
The question whether the Colorado
company has any right to so drain the
river that it is nearly dry and Of no
value to those who long ago settled on
its banks for the benefits it was sup
posed to possess, will have to be con
sidered aside from priority Of ditch
rights. 1t is quite sure that II the Col.
Orado ditch companies continue to
drain the river as they have done for a
few years there will soon be no Arkan-
sas river, not even astripe of sand. In
many places up the stream the chan
mel is growing up with cotton woods
and other grOwths so that in cOnsid
cradle measure it is chpked, This II
one reason for its overflow during re-
cent years when high waters come
While it would be a hard blow on 1
fertile part of Colorado about LANAI
and LaJunta it would be a good thing
for this country if an injunction sucf
as prayed for should lie granted.

OF their toddy Boyle says sit looks like

tive drink called aroo. A number of
young boys sitting in a circle chew
fresh cocoanut and when it is suffi-
ciently masticated eXpectorate it into
a bowl that is the common receptacle.
Fresh water is poured upon this delect-
able mixture and it is allowed to fer
ment. The South Sea islanders pre-
pare the ava root in the same way. Paul

drunkard in the person of the king of

been solidly drunk for IS years. and

FOLLOWING LUNATICs.

The Popocrats, like those of Pennsyl-
vania, who refuse to be convinced that
prosperity is returning and that silver
is a played out issue, are simply hasten
ing the destruction of the nondescript
party which came into being when the
Chicago convention went crazy over
Bryan.
1t may be possible to delude a portion
of the Democrats during this years
campaign, but surely the majority of
the party are getting their eyes open,
They see now that free coinage is
dead issue, and that there is no more
sense in demanding that silver should
be made standard of value than there
would be in demanding the same thing
for copper or iron. They are willing
to admit that the Chicago convention
made mistake, and that Bryan can
never hope to be President on the silver
issue
If the Popocrats were wise they
would shift their position everywhere
as the Democrats of Maryland have
shifted theirs, There is a chance to re-
unite the old Democracy, but it cannot
be done until the Popocratic leaders
are sent to the rear and Democrats like
Harrity, Whitney, Hill, and German
take their places. The lunatics like
Tillman and Altgeld who are still
preaching disorder and trying to keep |
silver at the front are sure to lead the
Popocrats down to oblivion, and perhaps
the sooner hey get there the better.

FORAKER ON PROSPERITY.
1t is Here Now and Free silver is
Dead.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 8. 9.-Senator j. b.
Foraker, of Ohio, is in the city. He is
most interesting talker just now be-
cause he is fresh from Ohio where a
campaign is being waged that is of
national significance. He has covered
the whole state recently and he is in
touch with the political situation.
Speaking to newspaper man yes
terday Senator Foraker spoke most
confidently of the success of the Re-
publican party in Ohio this fall The
senator says that the situation has
changed wonderfully within the last
few months. and that while there was
some doubt before Congress adjourned
of a big Republican victory, there is
none now To show how foolish all
talk of an estrangement between Sem
ator Foraker and Senator Hanna is, it
is only necessary to mention the fact
that both Senators viii open the cam.
paign at Burton, o., and speak from
the same platform together with eX-
speaking about the fight in his state,
he says the Republicans are in excel
lent condition and go into the cam
paigu full of confidence and harmony.
He continued by saying: "The pros
porous condition of the people in Ohio
has greatly changed the situation
there and the Republican party is get
ting the benefit of the boom. In my
travels oyer the state l haye found
hardly any free silver sentiment, and
indeed it seems only to be found in the
Democratic papers in Ohio. The peo-
Pile are too busy now making monev to
listen to free silver arguments. Tho
resolutions adopted at the recent Dem
ocratic county conventions also show
the change in feeling on this subject.
