The latest sensation in republican
circles is the famous DR.. Wetmore sex
pose" given to the republican press
something oyer a week. ago. DIR. Wet
more was superintendent of the Tope-
ka insane asylum and such miserable
failure that he was about to be remov-
ed, but had previously heard of the fate
awaiting him and resigned. He is now
out in a lengthy letter charging all sorts
of corruption, Encouragement, ETC., on
the part Of state officials. DIR. Wetmore
is peevish old crank and should
never have been appointed. The peo-
pie of Kansas understand that he has
severe case of bellyache and his wall
will be treated accordingly. You can
hear most anything on the eve of cleo
ton. That is the republican game.

REPUBLICAN politicians i'll Barber
county are attempting to make a great
amount of political capital out of the
fact that Judge Mckay ordered the so
cases of beer seized by the sheriff on
the Fourth of July, destroyed, after
Put Hill was convicted of selling IN
toxicating llouor by jury composed of
men of all parties. Judge Mckay did
nothing more than his sworn duty. lie
did what he was commanded to do
by law. No difference how radical you
may be in your anti-temperance views,
you can not consistently censure Judge
Mckay on that score any more than you
can Sheriff Gano Both are officers of the
law and both have duty to perform.
The manner in which the Judge is be.
ing abused by certain element of poll
ticlans simply because he discharged
his official duty feariessly and honestly
ought to make him much stronger with
the people.

THE Anthony Republican makes an
ungainly donkey of itself when it digs
up that old threadbare lie about NC
Kay knows no law" Up-to-date liars
have sense enough to know that a
statement which has been so often dis
proved should not be reiterated, but
the editor of the Republican is such a
consummate damphule that he doesn't
even know how to throw campaign
mud. Republicans have long since
conceded that Judge McKay's legal
ability is equal to that of any man in
the state, and the shrewd politicians
know better than to raise this ques-
ton. Gillett might save himself votes
by muzzling that fool editor in An
thOy.

SAM ADAMS became a Populist when
the party was organized. Excepting
the two years when he was trus-
tee of Medicine Lodge township, he
has never held an Office within the par
TVS gift, although he is competent to
discharge the duties connected with
any of them. The republican candi-
date for district clerk has virtually &C.
cupied positions III the court house
for the past ten years, either as Pop
ulist or republican and, admitting
that he has made good official, he can
afford to step out especially when we
have man in Mr.. Adams who will
serve the county equally as we'll.

JUDGE LACY is pretty we'll along in
years and can not travel over tie coun-
ty to meet the voters. But he has liv-
ed in Barber so long that he is quite
thoroughly known. He is a man of
more than ordinary business ability,
sound in judgment and firm in decis-
ion. lie is especially fitted to fill the
probate judges office and when you
vote for him you can feel assured that
you are voting for man who has the
capacity to probate matters with ma
ture deliberation, free from bias, big
Otry and naughty self esteem.

WE warned the voters of Barber

IF government ownership Of public
utilities is good thing let US have a
complete ownership system. Ii it is a
poor thing, why not turn the postoffices
and schools over to private corpora

wrong. If it Is right when applied to
postotfices and schools, it Is right when
applied to all other public franchises.

make a competent, obliging clerk and

DO YOU LIKE FIGURES.

The republican administration in
Barber county has been ON trial during
the past nine months. That admins
tration promised economy IN county af-
fairs. It had the benefit of Popul!st
reduction in salaries of county officers.
and in that respect had an advantage
oyer its predecessor.
The time has now come when a COM
parison can be made, and we herewith
submit a statement of expenditures
from January !, 1857, to October 1897,
when the Populists were in control of
county affairs, aud from January, 1,
1898, to October l, 1898, when the re-
pubilcans were in control:

The INDEX is casting a reflection on
no one; 1t Is simply submitting a few
important figures to the cool and can
did consideration of the taxpayers of
Barber county. If it costs So, 400. 80
more to transact the county's business
nine months, or an average of So 5000
more to transact the business one year,
under republican administration than
it does for a corresponding period On
der a Populist administration, which
party should receive the taxpayers
support? This is a cold business DroD-
osition. If you want to pay excessive
taxes to the amount of S3,329.09 per
annum, you can have that privilege by
continuing the republican party in pow
er; but if you want TO save this amount
you must return the Poprlists to power
