In view OF the fact that the enroll
ment at the State Agricultural College
is greater this year than in any pre-
yious year in tho history of the insti-
tuition, the republican papers are say
ing nothing about the ruin wrought a,
that institution when 1t was reorganiz-
cd little over year ago.
~
The last populist legislature cost tho
state S274,O1 per day less on its own
expense than the Republican legisla-
ture which preceded 1t.
W.
Secretary Alger's order counter
manding the original order TO muster
out the 21st Kansas was based on O
statement that the regiment was SC
efficient that 1t could not be spared at
this time. This Is one Of the regiments
In which 1t was charged that Governor
Leedy had made lot of political ap-
pointments to incompetent men. Re-
publican papers must have discovered
what sort of an opinion the war de-
partment had Of this regiment In ad-
vance, as they have had little to say
about incompetent officers In the Kan
Sas volunteers for several weeks
w.
For the past two years republican
papers have persistently charged that
The Agricultural College was ruined by
reason of the reorganization made by
the populists. The general govern
ment seems to pay little attention to
the testimony of these newspapers as
1t has increased the allowance for the
expefanent station to un amount high
er than was ever given before.

Wharton turned into the treasury

The present state officers are ar
ranging TO put in an electric light
plant at the state house. After this
plant is completed and in operation,
tho expense of lighting the building
will be scarcely one-half as much as 1t
has been in the past. 1t is even esti-
mated that it will save its cost to the
Vtate every year.

Aside from the Topeka Democrat and
one or two other papers of the same
class, there are no Democrat papers in
Kansas which are not supporting tho
state ticket nominated by the Democrat
State Convention. All of these papers
take the position that If Governor
Leedy and his associates were worthy
OF Democrat support in 1896 that they
are entitled to it again, considering the
splendid record which has beon made

The Lawrence Worlds prediction
that the republican platform could not
be picked to pieces for tho reason that
there was mighty little to it to pick ia
being verified. No one Is paying any
attention TO it and it was made with
the expectation that the candidates
should discuss anything and every
thing but tho platform.
w.
Not a single republican paper has
attacked any portion OF the excellent
laws passed by tho last populist legis-
lAture, A running fght was kept up
for several months against the text
book law, but after some year Of It's
operation no one has anything what
ever to say against 1t. The same con-
dition is true with reference to tho
stock yards law, Not single repub-
tican paper has ever charged that the
reduction In rates was unreasonable
and no one has alleged that these re-
ductions should not have been made.
There never was time when any crit
icisms on the new banking law was
offered. All Of the people now agree
that it was good thing to enact legls-
lation which would permit cities to OBJ
tain and operate gas and electric light
plants as we'll as water works, The
law requiring trial by jury in case of
contempt Of court is universally con-
ceded to be just one, Hardlya coun'
ty in the state Gun be found in which
the people do not testify of the value
of the county salary bill. 1t has re-
duced tho expense of local government
materially in almost every county in
the state, The state treasurer's books
show beyond any question that the
grain inspection law was valuable
piece Of legislation. 1t not only saves
the profits derived from the fees re-
coived to tho state, but IL places the
authority to inspect in the hands OF
the state itself and takes it away from
the board Of trade, which has previous
ly handled II in their own interest and
to the detriment of the producers. All
of these laws have resulted in great
good to the state and the election OF n
populist legislature this winter will
result in continuation Of these efforts
in the interest Of the people.
w"
The Republican story that the Popu-
list Legislature defeated bill providing
for the initiative and referendum is
still going around. There is hardly a
Republican editor who uses this stuff
who does not know that the statement
is untrue in every respect The fact is
that the only way that the initiative
and referendum can become available
to the state of Kansas 10 by the adep-
ton of constitutional amendment,
which amendment can be submitted
only by the adoption OF a joint resolu-
tion by the legislature, which resolu-
tiou must have been voted for by two
thirds OF the members OF each house.
This two-third's vote was secured in
the last Senate, but in the House the
Populists lacked eight votes of having
the requisitivc number. Tho records
shows that this Joint resolution failed
to receive the necessary votes in the
House, and that 1t lacked exactly eight

A Topeka Republican who attended
both the Populist and Republican state
conventions says that hc will this year
vote the Populist ticket, and that he
will do 30 because the work Of the
Hutchinson convention convinced HIM
that the Republican party was being
controlled by few leaders aud Hxers,
and that he never attended q state
convention where 30 many Of the dele
gates participated so freely In its work
as was the case ut the Popullst state
convention. He believes that II Is &

The Republicans have pretended fol
a generation that they were the only
friends Of the veteran Of the civil war.
In Kansas this year they have but one
old soldier on their ticket, while the
Populists have nominated two old sol
diers and one soldier who is now in the
field. Iu addition to this at least one.
half dozen other soldiers now in the
service have been nominated on Popul-
ist local tickets and in almost every
county the number Of old soldiers on
the Populist tickets greatly outnumber
those nominated by the Republicans.

The Tree Saved Him, But

Senator Walthall tells a story on himself
which Is none the less good by reason OF
the fact that the scene is laid during the
late civil war. At that time the senator
was a colonel in command of Confeder'
ate regiment and had brought his men II
to position, occupying sunken road. -
Federal battery was pouring shot and
shell all around the adjacent territory.
This fire, however, passed over tho regi-
ment, hidden in the roadway, and they
were to all intents and purposes out OF
danger.
On the high bank in front of the place
whore Colonel Walthall stood was giant
pine tree about dozen feet in circumfer-
ence. Acting on the spur of the moment,
the colonel thought u fine opportunity WAS
presented to give his men an object lesson
In personal bravery without any risk to
himself. Accordingly no climbed up the
bank and stood behind the pine tree. The
next minute shell struck the tree and
sent n shower of bark and splinters lying
In all directions, when Walthall overheard
the following dialogue between two of his
men lying in the roadway beneath:
81 tell you, Jim, 1t was mighty good
thing for the colonel that pine tree was
there"
"Yes, Tom," replied the other, but IL
Il hadn't been for the big tree the colonel
would never have been there In the first
place. "-Washir gton Times.

LEISuRELY LANE.

Is there no road now 10 Leisurely lanei We
travelled II long ago,
place for the tagging Of leisurely steps, sweet
and shady and slow
There werc rims OF rcstful hills beyond and
fields Of dreamful wheat
with shadows OF clouds across them blown and
peoples asleep at our feet.
There lads and maids on Sunday met and
strolled them, two and two.
The leaves they laced in a roof o'erhead. and
only the sun peered through,
And there was time to gather rose and time
for the woodbird's call
And plenty of time TO sit by stream and
hearken its ripple and fall.
Ii there no road now to Leisurely lane2 God
knows we have hurried ATARI
There was once lamp through the brooding
dusk and over the tree star.
There was once a breath of the clover bloom
sweet heaven, we have hurried so longi-
And there was gate by a white rose clasped
and out of the dusk a song.
That song-the echo Is strange and sweet; this
voice-it is weak and old.
Ii hath no part with this fierce, wild rush and
this hard, mad fight for goldl
1t hath no part with the clamor and din and
the Earring OF wheel and stonei
oh, listen, my heart, and forget-forget that
we reap the bread we have sownl
Is There no road now to Leisurely lane, where,
lingering, one by one,
The summoning bells Of twilight timo over the
meadows blown
May find us strolling our homeward way, glad
of the evening starr
Is there no road now to Ieisurely lane2 God
knows we have hurried ATARI
