The ladies of the aid society of
the Methodist church held the
closing meeting OF the year with
their president, Mrs. J. Burgan,
and at the concluson Of the bus
mess of the session they were
surprised by seeing the doors of
the dining room thrown open and
receiving an invitation to Il most
tempting afternoon tea, which it
is needless to say was fully dis
cuSsed before the tables were
deserted. But the ladies were
not willing to let their retiring
president have all the honorsa ana
enjoyment Of the occasion, and
during the ceremonies presented
her with very handsome berry
spoon, us a token Of their regard
and appreciation of the very sue
cessful manner in which she had
presided and carried on the work

An effort is on foot to hold all the
county conventions for the purpose of
selecting delegates to the state con-
vention on the same day. We hope
the movement will be successful.
The plan heretofore adopted, gives
professional politicians big advan-
tage; they can arrange early conven-
tions where they are strong and thus
get in the push; can have knockers at
the polls at a number of different
places, while the will of the people is
often defeated. Lets have the con-
ventions all the same day; lets have
all the primaries to select delegates
on the same day; let's find out what
the people want and try and satisfy
them; they have the last pull at the
ballot box and if they are expected to
line up solid front on election day,
it is but right that they have a say
as to whom their standard bearers
will be. Kansas is big state and no
set of candidates can be named who
will satisfy every republican, yet If
man has say in the matter or even
thinks he has, he can vote with bet
ter grace for the nominees, even
though all are not his first choices.
So lets make an effort to feel of the
pulses of the common people, those
who cast 80 per cent of the republican
vote 10 Kansas and try for once to
please them. The politicians have
had their inning and have turned the
offices over to the pops; the rank and
file of the party can at least be de-
pended upon to do no worse.

Commissioner of pensions, Evans
is succeeding in making himself con-
spicuous by being the most picau-
nish republican that ever occupied
that position. Mr.. Evans, like our
own Webb McNall, thinks he is
running the whole machinery of the
government. Mr.. Evans cannot
help but know that there are mighty
few fraudulent pensions, that the
frauds perpetrated on his depart
ment are the fewest in numbers and
amount of money wrongfully appro-
priated of any department of the
government handling like amount
of money. Besides being little in
other matters Mr.. Evans is becom-
ing notorious for allowing small pen
sions to original claimants. 1t is a
rare thing for a man under the act
of 1890 to get more than $500 per
month and an increase in a pension
is almost an unknown quantity. If
a man is pensionable at all, he
should have $I2.oo per month. 1t
is an insult to say to man who is
disabled at all, that 5000 or So. 90
per month is sufficient to make the
difference between him and man
of sound health, besides the war has
been over for third of century dur
ing which time, thousands of deserv-
ing soldiers have never drawn cent
of pay for their disabilities. War IS
a dreadful thing; no man will Shout
der musket and 60 forth to face
cannons simply for the love of fight
ing or the Fay there is in it. 1t re-
quires patriotism coupled with coui-
age and self-sacrifice for a man to
leave his wife and babies and 60
forth for an indefinite time and en-
dure all kinds of hardships for his
country's sake. Of the hundreds of
thousands of brave boys who left
comfortable homes and offered
up their lives ofor the sake of
preserving their country's honor,
not one ever dreamed of any re-
ward, except the self-conscionsness
of duty performed. Not one in
a hundred knew whether he was 10
have SIG. 90 per month or IS cents
No one ever dreamed of pension.
How many men in the city of Cha
mute would go forth today; muskets
on shoulders and face an equal
number of men in open field and
stand up and be shot at for a single
day for $500 or $4,000, 90 or
any other number of dollars. No
good citizen rushes into danger for
the love of it, but when a man
leaves a comfortable home and
puts his life in jeopardy for his
country's sake, it is an ungrateful
country that will not stand by him
in his hour of need. Every G. A.
R. post and every camp of Sons Of
Veterans and every patriotic organ
ization of citizens in the land ought
to petition president Mckinley to
remove Mr.. Evans and put in his
place a man who is in sympathy
with the defenders of our country.

But since the contestant for his seal
is a man who, while protesting thai
he is still Republican, consented
to oppose Republican measures and
act with Democrats, if elected, the
public cannot see any advantage in

Free Reading Room.

We are pleased to call attention to the free reading room located in the Seward building. It is pleasant place kept warm and comfortable and lighted cheerfully. Here are papers and few peridocals and chairs wait ing occupancy and tables all convent ent and speaking a pressing welcome to everybody to sit and enjoy it's use as though it was their own. Nobody is prescribed. How many stranger will bless the maintainers of this place of refuge, from the storm, from the cold. from the darkness and from his loneliness.
 Our good citizens ought to be very proud of this little room and should vie with each other in sending such books. papers. periodicals and literature as they do not care to retain. A good thing in print is not dependent upon any particular time. A good thing said is a joy forever. So the dates of the issues cut no ice. A man fond of reading many times finds more satis- faction in digesting an old paper than new one. We have known too many books without cover even better than some bound in vellum. A few people contribute to maintain this creditable public institntion-more ought to con tribute-for it should no longer be kept for economy in an out-of-the-way place, but brought upon the main street with an Illuminated light in front, Free Reading Room.''
 This undertaking will commend it. self to every mother whose son is away, because she knows that between sup per time and bed time it is the best and cheapest bridge to span the devil that any community ever devised particularly in new town.

The following article taken from the Dyea Press shows the kind of mcrch- ants they have in that town. In Wran- gel it is different. Our merchants are all, with one or two exceptions, patrons of the Journal and we hope before the new year starts in to have the one or two exceptions safe in the fold:
 Our readers should carefully look over our advertising columns before purchasing goods for the holidays, or your Atlin outfit, there are great many cheap John houses in our city who Haunt their glaring signs in front of their stores like ten cent chippie at country fair, telling of their great ly reduced prices and they never read or patronize a home paper, their goods are taken from rain soaked outfits and are as worthless to the purchaser as the seller is to society.
