When Mr. James W. Malcolm, of the
firm of Michael & Malcolm, Perryman,
opened his store on Tuesday morning he dis
covered that burglary had been committed.
Entrance had been effected by forcing open
the window of the shoe room, and the depre-
dations had evidently been confined to that
department About fifteen pairs of shoes and
ten pairs OF rubber shoes were missing.
Wagon tracks were discovered leading from
the store and it is conjectured that the same
gang were at work who have been operating
at Perryville and Aberdeen. Tracks were
followed as far as the Baltimore turnpike,
where all traces were lost. The evidence goes
to show that at least two persons were en-
gagged in the affair.

A LEADING Sixth district democrat
comes out for John W, Breidenthal for
governor In 1900. That strikes US as
about the best thing that has been
said since election. There is not a
particle of doubt but that we have
the votes to carry the State in two
years, If by proper conditions they are
enthused. That will be u national
campaign year, which alone is enough
ordinarily to bring out the vote. This
with man ut the head of the State
ticket whose personality Is IN insplra-
tion to the party and the admiration
even Of enemies, would certainly win.
He is radical enough In his general
ideas to be popular with radicals, and
careful enough In execution and actual
procedure to have the confidence Of
the conservatives. 1t may be- true no
is not especially strong on the stump,
but talking governors are not the sue
cessful executives usually, aud his rep

HERE Is an item In the Topeka
Mail and Breeze with more good In It
than might b. supposed to come out
Of Nazareth, or Topeka. IL says:
1--WE haven't expressed ourselves in re-
gard to the Emporia bank failure for
the reason that 80 far we have seen
nothing In the acts Of the dead presi-
dent to call for sympathy for him, and
we don't care to heap criticism on q
man who Is dead, But we want to
say this, The failure of the Emporla
National convlnces us of two things:
First, that bank examinations don't
seem to be as much protection as they
ought TO be, and second that the gov
eminent ought to adopt q system
which will make national banks guar
antee depositors. No one who holds
one of the Dational bank notes issued
by the First National bank Of Emporla
Is worrying about 1t, because he knows
that there Is q guarantee fund In the
shape Of government bonds to protect
that bill. Suppose that every national
bank were compelled to contribute to
a guarantee fund held In the treasury
of the government for the protection
OF national bank depOsltOrs, There
would be no distress and panic at
Emporla on account Of this bank fail
ure. Financial panics always start in
the banks, but under the guarantee
system a panic would be impossible.
This proposition seems to us perfectly
plain. We hope the legislature Of
Kansas will pass a guaranteed depos-
ltors bill this winter. 1t might give
congress a pointer"
