During the campfire which concluded
the program of Grand Army day at the
ChRutauqus assembly Saturday, De-
partment Commander Theo. Botkin
took a snap shot at the republican boss
ism in Kansas in the following Ian
guage: "If there are 10000 soldiers in
Kansas, as is estimated, and everyone
Of them should unite in a petition it
would have no weight against the die
tation of some tin-horn politician"

France knows how to protect the
rights of her people. Anybody who
doubts the genuineness Of an article of
food that he has purchased from a
Partisan tradesman may take it to the
municipal laboratory for inspection
and analysis. It will cost him nothing
to have it analysed and the fact deter
mined whether it is unadulterated or
adulterated, and if the latter the law
deals with the offender without further
action on the part of the purchaser.
The shopkeeper is liable to be heavily
fined and imprisoned, and has to dis.
play conspicuOusly in his shop window
or on his door for a year a large pla-
card bearing the words, Convicted of

IT. at any time, the publishers do not comply
with the law in matter, in size of book, or in
any other way, complaint should be made to
this Office, All books adopted are regular
editions, the same as sold the trade everywhere,
except where matter has been added OF changes
made at the suggestion of the commission,
Samples of books adopted are kept in this office
for comparison. Respectfully yours,
WILLIAM STRIKER.
State Superintendent of Public Instruction.
The textbook law as it now stands
is practically the same bill prepared by
Superindent Stryker. 1t came near
being defeated through the influence
of the American Book company, aided,
of course, by the republican members
of the legislature. It will save at least
two-thirds of what has heretofore been
paid for text books. Each book costs
One-half what it did before. Changes
will be less frequent, and when the
people move new books need not be
bought, if they do not move out of the
state.
The passage of this law has insreas-
ed the work in the state superintend-
ents Office very materially, but every
detail has been carefully attended to-,
and, if plans now matured are carried
out, all of the books adopted can be
ordered from one general depository
here in Topeka, maintained by differ
ent companies together. The people
in any neighborhood who want to do
so can then make up an order of ten
dollars or more for books which will be
delivered without commission OF ex-
pense, at contract prices, at the near
est railway station. Dealers are allow
ed ten per cent upon contract prices
for handling.
The textbook commission meets on
the 18th inst. when the remaining
adOptions will be made. The prices of
the other books are equally as low as
those given. An allowance Of 80 per
cent off contract price will be made
for all whole books now in use.

One of the greatest tariff speeches
on record was the following, delivered
by William Pitt in the British house of
Peers: "My lords and gentlemen: To
levy direct tax of per cent is a dan
gerous experiment in free country
and may incite revolt; but there is a
method by which you can tax the last
rag from the back and the last bite from
the mouth without causing murmur
against high taxes, and that is to tax a
great many articles of daily use and
necessity so indirectly that the people
will pay them and not know it; their
grumbling then will be of hard times,
but they will not know that the hard
times are caused by taxation"

The republican league met Thursday
and elected officers an delegates to go
to Detroit. 1t was a small meeting
and it was not very enthusiastic. Sen
ator Berry, Of Illinois, spent an hour
abusing Kansas and pOpulism, and was
cheered by lot Of chumps who think
any outsider is smart if he only jumps
on Kansas. Berry declared that our
laws against capital was driving people
away and keeping business from US.
Republicans applauded him to finish
in spite of the fact that the great Swift
and Armour butterine plants will be
removed from Illinois to Kansas be-
cause of hostile legislation in Illinois.

The graz elevator is probably In the first rank
Of distinctly American commercial institutions
The great structures used for receivrg storing and
distributing large quantities Of grain are marvels
TO the visitors to this country and a sealed book
to thousands who live within their shadows The
fact that a project to build at least one monster
elevator near New-York for the purpose OF inviting
business which has been diverted to other points
caused much comment in shipping circles, and even
men who are unfamiliar with the elevator as an
instrument of commerce were pleased to hear OF
the project and realized its magnitude when they
read In The Tribune that the capacity OF these eie
vators would be 100000 bushels each.
What good reason is there one man asked
'for building an elevator of such stupendous pro-
portions-why should II be capable OF holding 50
much?"
The elevator man answered. Because an ele-
vstor 10 a storage warehouse just as much as II Is
