Peters is to be postmaster at Newton.
The idea of man who served eight or
ten years with considerable credit in
Congress, and who has been an aspirant
for United States Judgeship, with a le-
gal standing and practice equal to the
best in the State, accepting a $1,500
pOstofice, illustrates the lack OF spirit
which has done Kansas up in the way
of political leaders and public men,. In
this sense Kansas has gone to seed.
Kansas begun taking old clothes in
1860, she followed it up in 1874 and such
an appointment as this indicates that
her people are still willing to take any
old thing. Peters ought to have friend
or two in Newton to whom the postofice
would be welcome.
independence Populist: Now that
the anti-scrip law has been sustained
by our courts, and it been decided that
miners and employees of other corpora
tions must be paid in cash instead Of
store orders, the monopolists and op-
pressors of labor are going to fight
harder than ever to defeat Leedy and
Boyle and our whole ticket and secure
the election of men who can be made
their tools as members of the Legisla-
ture. The laws of 1897 are distasteful
enough to those who live by robbing
the toiler, but the possibilities Of fur
ther and more radical enactments along
the same line is what they most dread.
Let us permit nothing on earth, neither
pride of party nor personal feeling, to
prevent us from uniting on legislative
candidates who will vote for the peo-
pies interests and to check the growing
arrogance of corporate wealth.

not make it public, but if the
questioner would come around in
the morning he would tell him.
Mr.. Lee assured the audience
that his authority was man of
excellent standing IN the COM
munity, man of credence, and
one who, in years gone by, had
been a member of the Rifles.
At the close of the service the
evangelist asked all who agreed
with the authorities read, the
words of the Bible given and his
position toward all recalcitrant
church members in regard to
dancing, to stand up. About
tWo-thirds of the audience rose to
their feet, while most Of those
who remained sitting were Young
people, dancers, and those who
took the evangelist 5 remarks as
personal, which the speaker
again assured his hearers was not
bis purpose.
NOTES
1t is needless to remark that
Mr.. Lees sermon on dancing
aroused great opposition, because,
as We said, too many present
took it as personal, as rejecting
on them, regardless of their be-
ing inside or outside of the
church. Then the Rifles incident
aroused the opposition of that or
ganization and their friends when
they noted that the evangelist
treated it, though only a joking
remark, if any was made, as dead
earnest bribery, which the Stal
is confident the Rifles, as a body,
do not believe in or would at
tempt. Then, too, that the
speaker laid greatest stress or
the exceptional incidents Of bal
room, in the dresses of the ladies,
TOO short at the bosom and trail
ing at the feet, hugging during
the dance, etc, and the reflection
by comparison and intimatlor
that all who attend dances oil
participate in them become chill
dren of the devil and whose fee
have laid hold on hell, or tha
young ladies who are vOtaries o
the ball room have taken their
first steps toward becoming IN
mates Of brothelS.

AT THE TENT
Evangelist Lee Versus the FOtaries OF
TerpsichOre

TerpsichOre
Evangelist Lee, by way of
preface to his sermon on "The
Dance" last night, spoke of a re-
port that had come to him early
in the evening that the Rifles had
made up purse for him, hence
the evangelist had not been as Sc
we're on the proposed Rifles dance
Sunday as had been expected.
He resented such declarations or
purposes, because he was not for
sale, and as a minister Of God he
was bound to proclaim his word
an1 dcnounce worldly amuse-
ments when ndulged in by those
whose were names on the church
roll or affiliated with churches as
members. Personally, he had
nothing but the kindcst Of feeling
for the Rifles. He understood
that they were a fine body Of
men and had no question III his
mind that if called upon they
would do their duty as true SOL
diers and patriotic citizens. He
had the pleasure of meeting Cap
tain Davidson while holding
meetings at Gainesville, but the
captain had not greeted him
since his arrival i'll town, but that
was matter left entirely with
him. What the evangelist was
after was to pierce the conscience
of the back-sliding and inconsis-
tent church members who had
avowed or obligated themselves
to obey the mandates of the
church and disregarded them.
1t was to warn, to arouse, to
bring back these that he made
his appeal and hurled his scriptu
raj and ministerial edicts.
AS it has been the general i'm
preston of the people of Ocala
that the Episcopal church per-
mitted dancing, or at least looked
on with Indifference to such
amusemcnts, the Star intimates
the authorities from which the
evangelist read. 1t was q docu-
mcnt Of seventy-two pages and
he could only give the gist of the
pamphlet. He first quoted what
the co1vOc alton, colsis5ilg of
fourteen rectors, held in North
ern Virginia in 1866 said, who
denounced and proclaimed
against the modern dance, that
those who disregarded the inter-
dict should be suspended from
communion. He said that st.
Augustine and st. ChrysostOm
had spoken against the dance
and he had failed to find any
saint, man or woman in the Epls-
copal church that indulged in or
approved of dancing. He quoted
what Bishop Johns said in 1872
against dancing, as we'll as the
words Of Bishop Cox of Western
New York, which he uttered
three years ago before the gener-
al session of the church held in
Minneapolis. The trouble was
not with the old Episcopal church
which inveighed against dancing,
but it had crept III as a modern
custom, and the fault lay with
the rectors and wardens of the
churches who wink at or permit
free license in the modern dance.
Near the~close Of the sermon
Mr.. Neal Harris Of the Ocala
Rifles created quite q tlutter in
the audience by arising and de
manding Of the speaker who &C.
cused the Rifles OF raising a purse
and attempting to bribe him. Mr.
