THE SITUATION.

Nobody seems to know anything about the
war situation, for certain. There is much
guessing, but that is ALL Mckinley hasn't
issued his message to congress yet. Last week,
we were told that the message would surely be
issued on Monday. When Monday came, we
were informed that it would be issued on Tues
day or Wednesday. Now, we learn that it may
not be issued at all.
However, preparations for war continue.
Minister Woodford is about to leave Spain, and
General Lee will leave Cuba in day or two.
All Americans have been ordered to leave Cuba
Immediately, and they are leaving hastily, some
not taking time to pack their baggage.
Congress is impatient and the people are
restless, and thousands of Cubans are dying OF
starvation each day.
We cannot tell what day may bring forth.
We must continue to wait.

ity that must needs to be hedged about, and
courts are the hedge
Once, in the history of our nation, there was
parallel. Lincoln, and all the early fathers
OF the Republican party, denounced the famous
bred Scott decision. Then, Republicans gave
free rein to reasonable utterances, and it was
the Democrats who stood up for the supreme
court and some of the men who denounced Lin
coin for reasonable differences fired on Fort
Sumpter. Then, the bone of contention was
slavery, and the decision was disapproved of,
not the court. Now the bone of contention is
monopoly, and Governor Leedy disapproves Of
federal court decisions when they favor monop-
oily. To charge the Governor with entertaining
reasonable inclnations is, in politics, what
bushwhacking is in war. Governor Leedy and
his followers are opposed to the greed of mo-
nopolies, and criticise courts only when they
favor what is detrimental to the best interests Of
the masses. The Populsts are just as much in
favor of courts as Republicans, but they are OPP
posed to unjust decisions. Republicans favor
unjust decisions when such decisions favor mo-
nopoly, and the Populist party opposes. That
Is the difference.

REPUBLICAN WARFARE.

The Republicans of Anderson county are
supposed to have sounded the keynote OF the
coming campaign in this state. Governor
Leedy is denounced for his "imbicile, corrupt
and extravagant conduct" and reasonable ex-
pressions against the federal courts. "Admin-
istraton" is the word used, but Leedy is the
man hated and feared. The wise men who
drew the resolutions failed to make any specifl-
cations, and, therefore, we can only conjecture
as to the 'imbecility, corruption and extrava-
gauce" From the Republican standpoint, any
effort to shield the masses against the encroach-
ment of monopoly is sufficient ground for at
tack, and when lot of Republican politicians
make an attack upon political opponent, they
have no more regard for the truth than the
father of lies. Not man in the Garrett con-
veution can prove single charge made against
the administration
Boyle is the best attorney general the state
has ever had. Stryker has brought forward
needed reforms in our school system. AS
whole, the governors appointees have been
able and honest, and the governor has been
dipnifed, and has attended strictly to the duties
of his Office.
As to the Unreasonable expressions" there is
wide difference of opinion. In Germany,
Leedy would have been guilty of a crime had
he denounced an act of government. In this
country, until recently, it has not been treason
to disapprove of the acts of congress, the the
policy of presidents and the decision of courts.
If there is any difference in the powers of the
coordinate branches of government, it is in ia
vor OF congress. The law-making bodies are
supposed to be first in power, and, therefore, if
divinity doth hedge about any part of our gov
eminent, it is congress- and yet, these same
Anderson county Republicans, only little
while ago, were denouncing congress in I'M
measured terms 1t was then Democratic.
Turn about is fair play. 1t is the turn of the
opposition. Not only are the congress and
president Republican,, but also the federal
courts.
The emperor of Germany may talk about
his subjects, load his subjects with taxes and
imprison them, and that is all right, but his
subjects must not say word; or, if they do,
it is lieses majestic and off to prison is the pen
atty.
Republicans are trying to erect an al-suf-
6cient majesty, to be hedged about with divini-
ty, as is the emperor of Germany, and whense
curely enthroned, the treafonable utterances of
any subiset will be punished with imprson-
ment.
But it is we'll enough to observe here, that
the Govssaor is not opposed to the federal
courts, but to wrong decisions, and that Re-
,ublicaus care but little for courts, but :heir
rare is for monopolies. Monopoly is the divin- i.

ANDERSON COUNTY, KANSAS.


this beautiful and fertile state, Anderson ranks
among the best for general farming. Its nu-
merous and never failing streams that do not
swell into disastrous hoods-its almost count
less springs of pure, cool, healthy water-ts
ample timber belts and natural groves-its
abundance of native grass and its thoroughly
proven adaptability to tame grasses, combine to
make it one of the best regions for stock grow
ing in the United States.
It's broad valleys with their rich, deep, black
soil, good for any crop, and tie gently-rolling
uplands, varying from deep, dark loan, excel
lent for corn, to the strong red limestone soil,
the very best for small grains, render it unsur-
passed for the production of cereals.
Fruit of all kinds, large and small succeeds
admirably, and for quality and quantity seldom
dissappoints the most sanguine horticulturlst.
If such thing were possible it might be
said that we we have plethora of schools and
churches. This alone is an invaluable guaran-
ty of social conditions.
Five railroads, principal among which is the
splendidy equipped and managed Santa Fe,
insure good markets and rapid transportation.
Nine enterprising and prosperous villages, be-
sides Garrett, the county seat, furnish excellent
market facilities and convenicnces for trade as
we'll as evidence the audable public spirit OF
their surrounding communities.
Among western cities Garrett stands pre- en-
inent for steady, substantial, reasonable growth
and prosperity. No wild boons have lifted her
off of commonsense business basis into the
visionary realms of speculative impossibiliies.
The product of her mills md factories in
demand far beyond the limits our state. Every
branch of trade is represented, and fastidiou
indeed must be the person who cannot be sIit-
ably supplied from the mammoth and we'll Sc
lected stocks of enterprising merchants.
The banking business is we'll represented. The
water, light and telephone systems are fully up
to-date, and would be a credit to a city of the
first class. Situated on a slightly emnence be-
tween two beautiful streams, the North and
South Potawatomes, with broad timber belts
GUS is very healthy city. No floods or cy
clones ever trouble us. We have excellent
schools in which the sciences and languages
are taught. We have II churches with good
membership.
Taken all in all, Anderson county Offers most
desirable homes for those who come to us from
any direction with all the advantages of mod.
ern civilization, and few of its curses. Farm
and city property is cheap, and can he bought
ON easy terms. 1t presents a splendid field for
investment. From any point of view it is
rare Jewell in the tiara of counties that form in
combination the grand ana glorious
state of Kansas. w. H. MELLEN

THE editor of Brann's Iconoclast was shot
one day last week, at Waco, Texas, and he has
since died. AS he fell, he shot his asSailant,
and he, also, is dead. Trouble grew ont of
Brann's criticism of affairs relating to the Bap-
fist college at Waco. His criticisms were just
and ,wellm- erited, and Braun had the courage
totel the truth. He was true reformer and
he was a ''shoulder- hitter" The papers, in
reporting the shooting, said it aducl, This
is mistake. Brann was shot in the back by
his cowardly assailant After being shot, he
turned and shot his assassin. The world feels
a loss when trave men like Brann pass from
earth.

THE COST OF SELLING.
It Is One of the Most Important Fnc-
tors In the Bicycle Business
of the United States.

To give general idea of the expense
manufacturer incurs introducing this
years wheel, and in order to show how
difficult it seems to make profit, the
following items of expenditure are here
with printed, says the New York World;
The first is the travelling mans eX-,
penses, which seem enough to take the
heart out of seasons profits. The
next is that for advertising, which has
to be considered as a most important
part of the business. Then there is the
general expense, such as attorneys fees,
cost of collections, stationery, tele-
phone, telegraph, etc. Following in
order are the office expenses and office
salaries, and those of the financial de-
partment, taking in the customary in
terest and discount items. The me-
chanical expense must not be left out,
either.
Bicycle makers will have much to
contend with this year in order to main
tain profit on the low-priced Ds
wheels. The expense of production,
which is necessarily big, will have to be
deducted from smaller principal this
year than heretofore unless the guam
tity of machines sold is sufficiently in
excess of last years number to counter
balance the big cut in prices that pre-
walls. In view of the fact that the re-
duction in prices of this years models
amounts to from 25 to 40 per cent. it
seems difficult to figure out how the
manufacturers are going to stand it.
They seem TO have no fears, however,
ns it is reasonably certain they would
not plunge into business if some finan-
cial benefits did not seem to be forth
coming.
With such list of deductions from Il
seasons profits it is not to be wondered
why people ask themselves how much it
costs the average maker to build one
wheel that will favorably meet all oppo-
sition. A few years ago, when COM
paratively few makers monopolized the
business, things were far different from
the state of affairs that exists to-day.
Makers could charge almost what they
wished then.
