each side has n fair show as to surround
ings, but an invading army always suf-
fers great disadvantages. They cannot
always tell where the enemy lies con-
cealed. The invaders suffer from excess
i've heat, change of diet, different kind
of water and frequently from lack Of
both food and water at regular intervals.
while the life on Il battleShip in ac.
ton is anything but comfortable, is in
tact almost an inferno below decks
while the fight is on, the other condi-
tions are better than the landsmcn have.
The food is regular and all the condi-
tons are more conducive TO general
health. The climatic conditions are so
bad i'll Cuba at this time of the year for
invaders that it is surprising to us that
more OF our men have not succumbed
to sunstroke than to Spanish bullets"

at the most. But after we have taken
both Porto Rico and Havana Spain may
still prolong the wal several months by
refusing to ask for peace and preparing
to protect her own coast, thus putting
us or the offensive and a great distance
from home. The main difficulty with
Spain at the present time is that only
about 80 per cent Of her population can
read and write, and the others are hope
lessly ignorant of affairs in their vi
government. 1t would not surprise me
that as 10 as the common people, the
great body of il~literate persons in Spain,
once learn how they have been hood
winked into carrying on this useless
struggle there will be a revolution there
as great as the French revolution.
"Politics in Spain will therefore be
largely responsible for the continuation
of q war which must now appear to
every sane, disinterested observer to be
useless so far as Spain is concerned.
With both fleets destroyed and nothing
left i'll the way Of ships but Camara OBJ
scura on the other side of the Atlantic,
there is no IL i'll Spain who can gain
the slightest advantage by prolonging
the wal unless it be the politicians who
are struggling to avoid the wrath of an
indignant people who arc already be-
ginning to feel that their confidence has
been abused. New York Sun.

The sallow or blotched complexion, heavy
eyes and dark circles under them, the little
wrinkles that gradually creep around the
corners of her eyes and mouth and the
general look of listlessness and despond-
cncy will tell the story. Special troubles
of this kind are too frequently neglected
because the natural and proper modesty of
women keeps them from consulting the
average run of physicians. These men,
because they are without inherent delicacy
themselves, imagine that wonen are the

any sensitive woman shrinks. DR.. Pierce's

How General Coppinger Once Made Two
Soldiers Behave Themselves at Mass.
General John J. Coppinger, an officer
who is likely to achieve distinction dur
ing this war, is a Roman Catholic. He
has made it a point to attend to the du-
ties Of his religion throughout his army
career, rough and ready as he is by ma
ture, and profane, too, as he used to be
about 20 years ago. When Coppinger
was stationed at Fort Leavenworth, a
long while ago, he used to attend early
morning mass at a chapel outside of the
limits of the post. One Christmas morn
ing a couple Of drunken soldiers, who
had been in Leavenworth OH a spree all
night, were cutting up during the
mass. They had seats up in front, in
the middle aisle, and they found the

McNALL HAS REDUCED RATES.

The latest move of the Republican
campaign managers is to cry that
Webb McNall is a fake and that there
has been no reduction in insurance
rates. Here are q few samples OF re-
auctions in rates at Hiawatha:
LEVI OGLE-My insurance is SIS less
this year than it was last on the
same sized policy. consider that
McNall with his fight has saved me
Just that much money.
w. o. NoBLE-Last year | paid a
rate of Sl.05 on my building. This
year the rate is 80 cents. You can
figure the per cent reduction your
SELF
w. NJ. SMITH-There has been a
reduction OF Is per cent on my stock
OF groceries.
ANDREW AMMON-I am carrying
Just the same amount of insurance
on my elevator and stock this year
that | did last and it is costing me
$50 less. That is what Mr.. McNall
has done for me. II any manin Hia-
watha is paying as high rates this
year as he did last it is because he
has not demanded a reduction and
he has no one but himself to blame.
GRANT W. HARRNGTON-The last
time insured my house the agent
charged me S1.25 thousand. He
renewed the policy three months ago
| at S1 M nor thOusand
ADAM SCHILLING-I told the agent
this year that would not pay the
old rate and he rewrote my policies
for fifteen cents hundred less. Since
than another agent has offered to
write me at a reduction of five cents
more.
HILL BRos-Last year we paid
$4,000 a thousand. This year it is
$3.50.
MCFADDEN & EICHoLTz-0ur rate
has come down from $500 hundred
to Sl.25.
GEORGE H. ADAMs-When it was
announced that McNall had made
war on the GARRISON rate Idetermin-
ed to test the matter. demanded
what | thought was fair rate on
my buildings and after some delay
the agent accepted my terms. / con
slider the McNall fight responsible for
the very material reduction that 1
secured.
These are only few men in Hia-
watha who have profited by the Nc
Nall fight. A number OF Others
whom we interview announced that
their policies had not been rewritten
yet, but when they were there would
be reduction or they would know
the reason why. All agree that the
fight McNall has been making has
brought a material saving to then
and Gov. Leedy is going to gain 8
number OF votes in Hiawatha on &C
count OF it.
People's voice. [volume] (Wellington, Sumner County, Kansas) 1890-1917, 1898-10-27

The Republican party has got to
offer the people something better on
the line of controlling Insurance Com
panies than McNall has given us or
they might as well keep still concern
ing McNall's record. The people OF
this state were charged extortionate
rates for insurance for years and in
many instances were never paid for
honest losses and forced to litigate
Tor many Others and 1t was a long
while before we got relief. But as
soon as the Insurance Companies be-
gin to get dose OF their own medi-
cine, some fool Republican rushes to
their rescue and wants to make the
complaint of the Insurance Company
q campaign issue. The best evidence
to many people that McNall is right,
is that the Insurance Companies are
bowling and asking the United States
court, and not our state court for
protection. Let them howl while,
! it will do them good. They will
probably learn that the best way to
get protection is to treat the people
right. They have been combining
their generosity to the Insurance
committees OF the House and Senate
Tor twenty years and pigeon-holed
many bill for the peoples relief.
Let the Republican party go McNall
one better, and not only drive rotten
Insurance Companies out ofthe state
but give us an actual reduction in
rates OF insurance.

Grover Cleveland went fishing on
Decoration day and was berated
from one end OF this country to the
other, but it was little expected that
Il candidate for governor on the Re-
publican ticket in Kansas would be
equally guilty. And yet the Repub-

diers believe that it and its nominee
for governor have such an intense
love for them that words can not ex-
press their admiration, which they
pretend is almost reverence.
Many tears were dropped by the

heroes disturbed his mirth and pleas

REDUCTION IN CHARGES.

The Populist legislature of 1897
passed what is known as the Stock
Yard law, which applied particular
ly to the stock yards at Kansas
City. The law reduced the yard age
charges on cattle from 25c to 15c a
head; on calves from l0c to Sc; on
hogs from Sc to &c, and on sheep
from &c to &c. 1t als3 eliminated the
charges OF 81 per bushels for corn
and 81 per hundred for hay, and pro-
vided that the company should not
charge to exceed 100 per cent, above
the market price. This legislation
has been resisted by the stock yards
company, and is at present In the
supreme court of the United States
awaiting a decision upon it. The
company has moved its office from
Kansas to Missouri in order to
continue without any legis-
Iative interference to rob Kansas
farmers by extortionate charges.
The Populist party in the platform
Of 1898, demands that the state OF
Kansas shall erect its own stock
yards and operate them at cost for
the benefit OF the people OF the state,
and particularly for the benefit OF
the stock shippers OF tbs state.
Kansas must control the monopoIies
or the monopolies will control Kan
sas. Where do you stand.
