POPULIST CONFESSION.

Had Harry PestaDa, of Russell
county, been nominated for congress
by the Republicans. the people of
this district would have some assur-
ance that the district would have a
representative in the event of the de-
feat of Napoleon Bonaparte McCor-
mick. a-Keeney Independent, July
10.
This admission of Mack's ineficien-
cy, inaction and lack of congressional
energy is heartily second by the vot-
ers of all parties and the welcome
''event" is thus assured. BY the cleo
tion of Reeder the district is certain
to have the first actual representative

DELINQUENT TAXES.

The general tax levy of Trego coun-
ty in 1892 was only 81 mills. The next
year it was the same. In those days
Glen Hoar was county clerk and we
had a Republican board of county
> commissioners. This year the gen.
eral tax levy of the county is mills
and the PopuliSts are claiming great
things for their economy because it is
no higher. That is not all there is
to be said in favor of the levieS mace
in the years preceding the present
administration. a great deal of the
tax then levied upon the real estate
was not collected at that time. Such
lands were sold for taxes in '94 and
in '95 and '96. They were bid in by
the county and the public funds were
reduced that much. Within the last
year, or since the return of prosperity
in '97, great deal of this delinquent
tax has been and is still being paid
in. That is, the tax is paid and the
land redeemed. That helps swell the
present county and school funds very
materially but it should not be cred
tied to the party in power at this
time.
This redemption of lands and pay
ment of delinquent taxes should ena-
bic the present commissioners to re-
|duce taxation but should they do so
lit can not be credited to their man
agement. 1t should be credited to
the levieS of former commissioners
and to the return of prosperous con-
ditions and renewed appreciation of
western Kansas lands.
That is not all: The penalties, in
terest and costs added to this delin-
quent tax is more than the original
tax. All this helps TO swell the funds
on hand and at the disposal of the
present officers for the payment of
|current salaries and expenses. 1t is
their good fortune, not their fore
sight, which should cause party exul-
tation-
Still more: The fees collected in

 MT Archer then goes on to discuss and emphasize the unity of euz, speech, paying en passant high tribute to American literature, pointing out the absurdity of the often repeated allega- ton, that it is a feeble imitation Ct English lisereture On the contrary, 1t is precisely the Amerioanism of it, Mir. Archer assures us, that gives it it's value in the eyes Of thinking English men. And there can be no rational doubt, he thinks, that the English lan- gaage has gained, and is gaining, enor- mousiy by it's expansion over the Amer ican continent. In conclusion MT. Ar cher says that what we want and what he believes we are gradually attaining, is not political union or formal alil- ance, but simply realization that each is indispensable, if not to the prosperity, at least 10 the greatness of of the other. we want not so much Q union of hearts as a union of imagi- nations.

strous. Making no allowance for the l insufficient provision for caring for the sick, which was due largely to the
 emergency thrust upon the war depart
 ment, the true history of the war when it is written will show that even if the hospital service had been irreproach- able there would still. have been a great number of sick soldiers. It is significant that the critics Of the war department have persistertly ignored | the question of the iikeiihood of raw 1 troops incurring sickness through 9 radical change in their environment. We have no doubt that the commits sion appointed by President Mckinley i to examine into the charges preferred against Secretary AlgeT will ahsoIve him from any responsibility for the large number of cases of sick soldiers.
 The scandal has been created by the democratic press aided by great
 many republican papers that failed to detect tEe true inwardness Of the at
 tack. t''is gratifying to know that
 most of these republican papers now recognize their error and are trying to
 undo the mischief they have helped
 bring about. The successful conduct
 of the war left the democrats and sil-
 yerites without an issue to stand upon and they hit upon this one as the best available. When the evidence is all in
 and the case is closed, the absolute in-
 deeency Of this attack upon the war
 department will be plain to every fair
 minded person.

NOT THE MOTHER COUNTRY.
William Archer on the Identity of Eng
 fish and American Expression.


 MT. William Archer. the eminent English critic, contributes a timely article to the October number of the Pail Mall Magazine. in which he dis cusses the identity of English and American literary expression. MT. Archer contends that the metaphor which describes England as the moth CT country of America is q misleading and mischieyous one, although Tenny- son has given it literary sanction in the line Gigantic Daughter of the West" :" and Mr William Watson, in his sonnet beginning 70 towering daughter, Titan Of the West" Both poets, in NIT. Ar cher's opinion, ignore the flight of time and mistake an historical for an actual relation. ..The America of today is not the daughter Of the England of today. They are both daughters and co-heir- esses of the England of the past, and especially, we may say, of seventeenth century England. The same spirit which refused ship-money to Charles refused tea-mOney to George III; the same spirit which drew up the Petition of Right dictated the declaration of in dependence. IL was England's misc0n- ception of her true relation to her American colonies that finally alienat- ed them She tried to be not only 9 mother land, but stepmother lanc, and the United States ncbly and iney
 itably broke her leading strings. And now, after the lapse Of century and a quarter, we have no shadow Of an ex- cuse for putting on maternal airs to- wards the transatlantic republic. We nc less than the Americans are re- volted children of the England Of North and Granville. though our revolt has been a bloodless one. Surely,

THE WORLD AGAINST SILVER.

l The Republican yesterday printed a
 statement by Colonel Mitchell, editor of the Little Rock, Ark, Democrat, the leading democratic paper of Arkansas,
 which deserves attention. Col cnel Mitchell lcns ago became con-
 vinced of the absolute hopelessness of
 the free silver cause. What he says is worth repeating here, and We con-
 mend it to the consideration of cur free silver friends:
 "In 1896 I was in Denver. and be- came acquainted with the managing
 editor of the Denver Republican, 9 1 bright young fellow, who was a strong i free silver man. Why he said to me
 dc you mean to tell me that this great
 ard rich nation isn't able to establish and maintain a financial system of its own, without the aid or consent oi
 any other nation?'
 My young friend I replied, thirty six years ago I engaged in the enter prise of establishing and sustaining
 ? system in the southern confederacy without the aid or consent of any
 other nation on earth. When the Wal
 was imminent some of us feared we i could not succeed without the aid oi some Of the great European powers
 But the leaders said nc; we were greai
 and rich and powerful enough to main tain a system of our own, without tho I aid CT consent Of any other power oT earth. Well, we spent four years a,id i billions Of treasure and a million lives before we were convinced that we couldn't do it. Why? Because the
 world was against us. And it k against us now on the financial ques
 tion. Gold is the standard Of the
 civilized world, and we must accept it; the world is against your free silver
 proposition, and we must accept tn.

and every man who draws pay from a gold or copper mining enterprise in Arizona should come to the front in this campaign and refute the declara- tions of the silyerites that mining in Arizona is failure in that the silver mines are closed.
