Good for Indiana.

No phase Of the election news oil
Tuesday is more gratifying to the
champions Of sound money and the
supporters of the administration than
the verdict OF Indiana.
A Republican victory in an ''oif-
year election" is a rare occurrence in
hoosierdom. In fact, the Republicans
have succeeded in carrying Indiana
in but two off-year contests since
1872. In 1896 Indiana, which was at
one time regarded as safe for Bryan
ism, swung into line for sound money
with plurality Of 1881. The plur-
atty for James A. Mount, the present
Republican governor, was rs, 1877.

Tom McNeal sends the following
message to Spain; cease your mon
key business and come to time, for
the Spanish haven't carried this cleo
ton. Get out Of Cuba. Get out of
the Philippines. Get out of the La
drones. Get out of Porto Rico. Get
off the face Of the earth, for all we
care, and be tolerably quick about 1t.
This country, including the state Of
Kansas, is for the United States, for
Mckinley, against yellow journalism,
against the fellows who have been
criticzing the conduct Of the war,
against Spain. You might as well
come down and make no display Of
gayety during these negotiations.
The election has gone against you
and the sooner you get down off the
perch the better"

Mr. Stanley's Admirable Platform.

Through the Kansas City Journal
Governof-elect Stanley outlines his
plans for beginning his administra-
ton. They are good and II be sticks
to them and in addition fires the Pop
appointees and names his own
promptly Kansas will arise and call
him blessed. He says:
81 intend to give this State clean,
business administration.
"As to the appointments, | do not
know what there is at my disposal,
| have been devoting my time to the
campaign and have paid no attention
to the appointments which | have to
make.
"However, ! will not appoint any
man to rule over the charitable insti-
tutions who is not a moral man, nor
one who does not eschew intoxicants.
"A vulgar, obscene man cannot re-
ceive an appointment from my hands,
whatever be his Endorsements. He
must be humane; that is very essen.
tial.
"The men who will be at the head
Of the institutions, as all su bordinates,
must have clean records in their own
communities.
II am greatly pleased"wilh the
campaign conducted by Mr.. Albaugh,
and although neither he nor | has
said word regarding it, nor has he
ever intimated to me that he wants
such is my feeling for him
that he can have anything that it is
in my power to give him. He aided
me greatly in my campaign for the
and he has done magnif.
cent work as chairman Of the Repub.
lican state central committee.
81 have not promised anyone any
thing. There are absolutely no
strings to me. have not thought Of
anyone for any position as yet, and
no appointments will be made for
some time. Our state platform de.
clares in favor Of giving the prefer
ence to old soldiers and | shall do so.
LAS to the metropolitan police, |
have already gone on record. | shall
not reestablish any metropolitan pc.
lice boards"

A Vote Of Confidence.

Mckinley received in 1896 plural
ity or majority of the popular vote il
California, Connecticut, Delaware
Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky
Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts,
Michigan, Minnesota, New Hamp
shire, New Jersey, New York, Nortt
Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania
Rhode Island, Vermont, Wisconsin
and Wyoming-27l electoral votes
from the 20 states.
On Tuesday, Nov. s, the Republic
cans carried California, Kansas,
Michigan, Massachusetts, New York,
New Hampshire, New Jersey,
North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Wis
consin, and Wyoming on vote
for governor; Delaware, Illinois,
Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri,
Ohio and Utah on minor state officers.
They carried Oregon in June, Maine
and Vermont in September, and
West Virginia and Washington on
the legislature and congress Nov. 8.
In other words, the Republicans car
ried in 1898 every state that gave a
majority to Mckinley in 1896 except
Kentucky, and in addition carried
Kansas, Nebraska, Washington, and
Wyoming. If Mckinley had been a
candidate for president in 1898 he
would have carried more states and
received more electoral votes than he
did in 1896. This good record for
an off year.
In 1894 the Republicans changed a
Democratic majority of mnety-eight
in congress to Republican majority
or lO4. In this year 1898, in which
the Democrats expected to secure the
control Of congress and to rebuke the
president for his war policy, they
failed, as they failed in 1870 to pro-
duce reaction against General
Grant The Republicans have re-
claimed from the Populists and Dem
ocrats two Of the great states Of the
West hold all the Republican states
by normal majorities, control the
legislatures wherever the election of
a United States senator is at stake,
and secure good working majority
in congress. This is not an off year
as were 1862, 1874, 1882, 1890, and
1894, but year in which the people
voted confidence in Republican adj
ministration.

Osborn for Speaker.

The selection Of speaker Of the
house Of representatives, is one of the
important duties Of the coming ses-
sion. There is just one candidate for
that position from the Fifth congress
sional district and that 10 Judge ). j.
Osborn, who has been elected repre-
sentative Of the Goth district, Saline
county, by handsome majority and
by Republican gain that testifies to
his popularity. Judge Osborn de.
serves bis popularity at home and
abroad, he is one Of the big.hearted,
big-brained, clean and honorable Re-
publican leaGers Of the State. No
body ever knew Steve Osborn to do a
mean act, thousands know his gener-
osity and kindness. 1t was this that
elected him in a district that was
previously Populist by 800 majority.
Dickinson county wants to see
Judge Osborn speaker Of the house.
He will honor the position and will
be a credit to himself and his friends.
The Fifth district should stand to-
gether in his behalf-he is our kind
Of people and it Is good politics to be
united. The Fifth district has won
much advantage by joining hands
during the past year; let it keep up
the harmony and land Judge Osborn
as speaker Of the house.

The Kansas City Times gives the
Pops this parting kick: ANY state
ment thot the Populist managers
may make will be in the nature Of a
postmortem. By Analysing the re-
turns they may be able to ascertain
the cause Of the party's demise, but
they cannot alter the fact that the
demise has taken place. 1t may DO
interesting to know whether fatty de.
generation or chronic exhaustion or q
swift kick ended the career Of fusion
in Kansas, but the findings Of the cor
opor will be valuable only as an OBJ
ject lesson"

A W estern Party.

In giving the Republican party its
victory in the election this week the
West is true to its history. The Re.
publican party is, in a particularly
direct and emphatic degree, a western
party. Its first impulse as an organ.
ization was given to it in the western
States. A piece of western legisla.
tion-the Douglas bill, which repealed
the Missouri compromise and threw
Kansas and Nebraska open to slavery,
furnished the Republican party's in
citing cause. A western man, Alvan
E. Bovay. of Mpon, Wis, was the
first to suggest the name Republican
for the party, and he in that town in
February, 1854, before the bill passed
but when its passage was seen to be
certain, called the first meeting which
adopted the name for the party which
was formed Immediately afterward.
Another western State, Michigan, in
a convention held july 6, 1854, few
weeks after the enactment OF the
Kansas Nebraska law, adopted the
name Republican for its state organ
ization Of the new party, and it was
the first state gathering which did
this. The party got start in the
West earlier than it did in the East.
In the first presidential canvass in
which the party participated, that Of
1856, in which Fremont was the NOM
inee, every western State except In.
diana, Illinois and California gave its
electoral vote to the Republican
party [Globe-Democrat.

A Cowley county paper has the fol-
lowing very good paragraph, and it
is probable that many things Of the
kind mentioned may be found in

hedge near the home of one Of our
prominent farmers in Bolton town
ship, and the more so to find that it
had lain there for several months I'M

was in the shape OF corn planter

the slot machine commonly found in
cigar and other stores is a gambling
device under the Cubbison law has

Lyndon. The court ruled that not

moneys worth. there was an incen.

The Pl esident's Policy.

This is said on good authority to
be President McKinley,s policy for
the management Of certain national
questions. II will command itself to
all thinking citizens as a wise one:
First-There will be no extra ses-
sion of congress next spring, barring
grave emergencies.
Second-The conquered islands
will be continued under a strong mil
itary government.
Third-All fduciary positions will
be administered by army officers.
Fourth-The islands will be kept
out Of politics as much as possible
until the American people have had
an opportunity to study them and
the national sentiment can crysta.
lie as to the relation they should
hold to the United States.
Fifth-The islands will probably
retain their present currency systems,
but these may be bolstered by de-
erees which will insure stability.
Sixth-Being in effect military col
onies, the conquered islands viii
have tariffs Of their own, which will
be levied on imports from the United
States as well as those from other
countries.
Seventh-The United States will
collect duties on imports from the is
lands the same as though they still
belonged to foreign sovereignty.

A Mighty Good Prophet.

The Topeka Capital ten days be-
fore election made an estimate of the
majorities for governor by counties
and the result amply verified its
figures. 1t only missed Stanley's
majority LOO with the soldier vote
yet to hear from. Its estimate on
two counties, Of which Dickinson was
one, was practically exact and they
were counties where the opposition
made its noisiest claims too. The
Capital is as good prophet as it is
recorder of current history. 1t has
made splendid fight for Republican
ism in this campaign, as it always
has, and is by all odds the paper for
Kansans. Next to the home paper
the Capital deserves place in every
Kansas home.
