The calamity papers close their
eyes to the fact that thousands of
men have been employed who were
idle year ago; they ignore the evil
denee of prosperity that are to be
seen on every handj they refuse to
listen to or publish the statistics that
tell of business improvement in all
parts of the countryj they decline
to give ear or space to the fact that
wages have been increased in almest
every department of work; they re-
fuse to see that there is any good In
wheat that is twice as thigh as it
was year ago; but eagerly and
with great headlines and immense
pictures they tell of every mlstor-
tune that comes upon any man or
company of the country; they tell
how one mans crop was ruined and
that he has no wheat to sell; they
bemoan the cruel fate of the laborer
who has to pay more for his bread
and meat than he could get it for
last year; they tell of every calamity
by wind and wave and storm and
misfortune, Their mission is to
spread gloom and misery and dis
pair and to bring discomfort and
suffering into the world. The demo-
pop papers are ghouls and they
would rather see destitution and
suffering and misery among the
children of men than to have re-
publicans in Office. Lawrence

~ Hon. W. ]. Bryan made talk
or rather re-hashed his last years
talk before the Chicago Jackson
Day Club last Saturday. Amy one
who has ever read his tale of woe,
has read particularly the Chicago

Grover and goes over the same wall
Just as he did in his 1896 campaign.
Well, let him talk as talk is his long
suit and let him wall if it does him
any good for he certainly is doing
no harm. He is getting no new
followers; the only people now who
will go to hear an adversely talk are
the chronic Office seekers. People
who are hustling have little time to
spend on politics and the less they
spend in that way, the larger their
incomes become. The followers OF

Did you ever know of so many
farm houses and barns in course
of construction; so many fences
built and repaired; SO much paint
ing and other work along the line
of improvement being done as at
present? These are evidences OF
prosperity; this work is not being
done on credit but whatever if it is
not done by the owners of the prem
ises, is being paid for in cash, not
borrowed money, but the proceeds
of crops and stock raised by the
farmers. Kansas farmers are ALL
right.

llama Elected.

IL At the joint caucus OF the twC
houses of the Ohio legislature We'd
nesday, Hanna received 73 votes. a
majority of all the votes cast, and
was declared elected u. S. Senator
from Ohio for both the long and
short terms. Mayor McKisson, re-
publican of Cleveland, a strong
supporter of Mckinley in 1896 and
who has always stood for sound
money, at the last minute came out,
fat footed for the free and unlimi-
ted coinage of silver or anything
else at 10 to or any old thing,
thinking by this he could becomesa
senator of Ohio, received the votes
of the traitor republicans, and of all
the soft money, hard money
or any old money democrats
with the exception of one
who could not be landed, Wonder
how MsKisson the mugwump and
Kurtz the traitor feel now; and how
do the democrats who joined the
lnhoiy scheme feel9 How can a
man feel who is willing to combine
in any old way in order to down
some fellow, whose greatest fault
consists in that he can make liv-
ing. Marcus A. Hanna conducted
the last republican campaign and
conducted it in such manner as to
almost annihilate the opposition;
never in the history of this country
was such an overwhelming defeat
administered to political party as
was administered to the Boy Orator
of the Platte in 1896. By virtue of
the successful campaign made by
the republican party with Marc
Hanna at the helm, he succeeded
in gaining the i'll will of all the op-
position and like lot Of spanked
babies these fellows have continued
to howl. Read the papers and
study the caricatures and you will
find nothing against Mr.. Hanna,
only that he is rich. He employees
80, 900 men and 90 per cent of them
will fight for their employer; he pays
the highest wages paid for the kind
of work he has done. The republi-
can legislature of Ohio has simply
done its duty. Marc Hanna was
not the choice of the editor of this
paper for senator; we could have
picked dozens of men in Ohio, whom
we would have preferred for the
senatorship, but he was the choice
of SO per cent of the republicans of
Ohio; they unanimously endorsed
him for the place at their cenven-
ton last year and 50 of the "a legis-
lative districts of the state endorsed
him in their local conventions.
Any member of the Ohio Legislature,
after making the race on platform
lndorsing Hanna and then voting for
another person, is guilty of politi-
cal treason and is fit only to be
classed with Benedict Arnold.
We congratulate these members
Nf the Ohio legislature who carried
out the will of their constituents
and for the followers of Kurtz, the
traitor, we can only say, retire to
the oblivion you so richly deserve.
