The two Populist papers up at
Council Grove were consolidated
last week, in the interest of harmony
within the party, and the event is
seized upon by the Pig alley sheet
to promulgate that "the Council

Brown OF Pratt has opened up d

In with the railroads and being re-
sp0nsible for the defeat OF the maxi
mum freight rate bill last winter.
Mr.. Brown had a several-cOlumn ex.
posure Of others shortcomings and
bis own virtues in the Kansas City

a tishy smell and we laid it aside with
out comment to await developments.

patch, for we have scare seen ref
erence to IL since. A man whose

are received with almost universal
distrust add nothing TO it by attack

Tremendous pressure is being
brought to bear upon President Nc
Kinley to get him to rescind some of
the orders of Grover Cleveland ex-
tending the provisions of the civil
service law. Wide sentiment has
been created in favor of repeating
the law altogether. Saturdays dis
patches say that the whole Kansas
(Republican) delegation now So
journing in Washington for the pur-
pose of getting division Of Kansas
into two federal districts, in order to
make more jobs, is in favor of the
repeal of the civil service law. This
delegation includes Cy Leland and
Chester l. Long. Verify the a.
mighty job is subordinate to nothing.

The Leland organ in this city
comes to the defense of the boss
in a half column editorial. 1t
says not one Republican out of ten
cares whether Sterne or Crum is ap-
pointed United States marshal. Per-
haps not; they are very curious to
know, however, whether a "disrep>
utable political barnacle or cut
throat" las he was styled by the
the Mail June l3, lS95) can have
more influence at McKinley's court
than regularly elected United
States senator. This is the point
which decent Republicans are medi-
tating upon and which the whilom
Leland organ seeks to obscure.

The Troy Times gives an insight
into Cy Leland's methods. At the
recent local election the little town
of Orr, in Doniphan county, Kansas,
went PopuliSt. 1t was the first time
in the history Of the county that a
voting precinct returned anything
but Republican majority. Orr is
a telegraph and railroad station and
forty families have been regularly
supplied with mail there, out that
mattered not to Leland. He took
the train for Washington, laid the
matter before his friend, Bristow,
the Fourth Assistant Postmaster ZEN
eral, who wound up Orr's postal af-
fairs in short order by abolishing
the office. Populists are circulating
a petition for its re.eStabllshment.
but Leland is in Washington to see
that nothing is done in this direction.

Librarian, was interviewed in Topeka

Of the attack made by Representa-

she emphatically stated that Brown
had made serious mistake. She
said that his attack had not injured
Senator Harris in the least; that
whatever aspirations Brown had
were now blasted. The people had
lost confidence in him, and also their
respect for him.

Cleveland administration are hold
ing the rudder of the Mckinley
reign, he should study the politics
followed by the two men and find
wherein they differ. The president
has now recommended all that Cleve-
land could in currency matters. He
has followed mis- footsteps so closely
in the Cuban matter. that he has
failed to make new track. There
is perhaps little difference on the
tariff, but for that matter he has
done even more for the trusts and
mcnopolies than Cleveland" And

Senator Hoar of Massachusetts

Senator Hoar OF Massachusetts
has been in the United States senate
for several terms and is rated as one
OF the wise statesmen Of the day.
Lately he has been wavering some
in support of Hawaiian annexation.
An interview with him last week
brings him around all right; he says
he considers it the duty of every
loyal Republican to stand with the
administration" Such talk as this
is contrary to the spirit Of our primi-
tive government. Men elected to
either branch Of congress are sup
posed to represent the people,
not the administration. II he
and his constituency hold views
on measures Of public policy con-
trary to those Of the president il
should be his dutJ to assert himself
in behalf of his constituency, regard
less of party. Craftsmanship in
wolves patriotism to ones country
not to any political party. 1t is only
within the past few years that we
have heard such talk as this emanat.
ing from Senator Hoar. Trusts,
combines and monied oligarchies
are instrumental in popularizing this
sentiment. Whenever they can gel
this principl thoroughly fixed in
the minds of the people they can
then carry on their plumber by deal
with but one man. They need only
to make sure of him and the peo-
Piles representatives will be expected
to bow supinely to his will and re-
ceive in return the salaried jobs the
president has at his disposal. Such
sentiment is unworthy OF man Of
the caliber and reputation of Sena-
tor Hoar but it is an index to the
] tendency of the times.

The VOICE is in receipt of cir
cular letter from Prof. Haworth,
professor Of Physical Geology and
Mineralogy in the State university,
who under legislative authority is
preparing a report on the mineral
industry of Kansas, covering every
product obtained by any kind Of
mining, smelling or quarry ing opera
tons. He solicits the hearty CO.
operation of all interested citizens,
and urges that every interest and
every locality should be properly
represented. On this point he SAYS:
Each county should also take a
pride In reporting the productions of
her own, for to a certain extent il
Will be Injurious to a county to have
but a fraction Of her output included
IN the report. The Importance of
this last statement will be seen when
II Is considered that these reports
Will be sent all over the civilized
world"
Unfortunately for Sumner county
we have no minerals of any sort ex,
cept salt and at the present time
that's being produced at Hutchinson.

agent ofthe salt trust, Sumner county

"Some One Has Stolen it,"

The Kansas state officers are kept
very busy inventing excuses for tue
deficit IN the stale treasury, but in ev-
cry attempt they fail To touch the
true cause, which is so simple and OBJ
ylOuS that every man in the state
must recognize it. The deficit is
caused solely by the fact that the re
form legislature appropriated more
money than the tax levy can raise and
the state officers must admit this or
else submit themselves 10 the sus-
picion that they themselves have
looted the treasury. The only way
that money can honestly come out Of
the treasury is through legislative
appropriation and if the money runs
short it is because the legislature has
appropriated too much or else some
enc has stolen it. The talk about the
people not paying their taxes promptly
is balderdash. Good times in Kansas
have enabled the people to pay their
taxes during the past few years much
more closely than ever before Mail
and Star.
The above is an amusing anomaly
of pure diabolism. In the first place
there is at the present time no deficit
existing in the state treasury. There
was a deficit, but since the taxes
this year, (Which are the first that
have been collected under the Pop
uliSt administration are rolling in
the deficit has been converted into
a surplus. We agree with the Pig
Alley statesmen that "the only way
money can honestly come out of the
treasury is through Legislative ap-
preparation" and that eff the money
runs short it is because the legisla>
ture has appropriated too much or
else some one has stolen it" and
when We realize that the appropria-
tons of the last legislature were
half million short of those of the
Morrill, legislature we naturally con-
clude that someone has stolen it."
And this is confirmed by the fact that
thousands of dollars in warrants have
been discovered on file in the state
auditors office as having been paid,
for work alleged to have been per-
formed, which the bare walls of the
corridors in the state house are an
unimpeachable testimonial to the
fact that said labor never was per-
formed. This coupled with the fact
that the Morrill, administration turned
the treasury over to the Populists
with 100000 less in it than when
they received it at the hands of the
PopuliSts, pretty efectually estab-
fishes the truth of the Pig Alley
conclusion that "some-
one has stolen it."
The excuse which he puts into the
mouth Of Populist officials that "the
people are not paying their taxes
promptly" is another thought ema-
mating from his study Of the curling
and turning and twisting of the lit
tie pigs tail. Populist officials have
never dreamed of such "balderhash."
There is another amusing thing
about the above paragraph-it pre-
serves its laughable uniqueness right
to the close. 1t says good times
in Kansas have enabled the people
to pay their taxes during the past
few years much more closely than
ever before" We presume this is
defense of his gold standard friend,
Grover Cleveland.

N AN APPLICATION for a writ

murder case Messrs. Don Carlos &
Stanneld took the ground that not
having been indicted by either OF the
FIRST two grand juries impaBneled In
the Northern judicial district, re-
gardless OF where the court sat, the
defendant was entitled TO his liberty.
Judge Springer ruled adversely but
has since recognized the position
taken and doubtless Barker will be
released from custody. II has been
the custom to construe that section
OF the law bearing upon the case to
mean that the accused must be re-
leased II not indicted by one OF the
first two grand juries impanneled at
the court seat TO which he was bound
over. Under the new ruling every
grand jury will investigate the case
Of every person in Jail In the northern
district, who has not been indicted.
