OUT AGAINST LEEDY.

.;r Reasons why. +5'

Chauncey Flora, sheriff of Leaven-
worth county, two terms. and one OF the
democratic leaders of that part of Kan
sas, announced that he was opposed to
the reelection of Governor Leedy and
fusion. Mr.. Flora could have had a
fusion nomination for the legislature
but he declined topermit the use of his
name. When asked about it he said:
II would not allow myself to be nomi-
mated because it would imply an in
dorsement of Leedy. and that l should
vote for him for governor. l don't
believe that Leedy is, either dem
ocrat or populist. He is for Leedy,
and no one else. 1 believe that he
sold every appointment in his gift II
is my opinion that he will not begin
to carry the state" .... f:e r...i 80 p

beginning to doubt his sincerity or his

and the insurance rates are still just
as high as before he took charge. In
fact where they are not 1T the old

Last month had to renew several

old policies showed they were one and

the merchants in Wellington. Paola

were given to the lowest bidder, and
local agents cut down their own COM

been fighting more with his mouth

NO MIDDLE GROUND.
The Term "Free silver Republican" Used
Only N q CLOSING Over Of tho
Change tn POpuiism.

There never was any excuse for the
term 'tfree silver republican" and the
term never did mean anything, except
as a CLOSING over of the change from
republicanism to populism- At the
last election the people declared for a
sound system of currency, and the de-
cision will not be reconsidered. Even
If the fragments manage to hang to-
gether until the next campaign, that
will mark the final passing of the free
silver craze, and the wise thing for the
'.free silver republicans" to do is
to get back into their old party; the
party that is now making a success OF
running the government, just as il
always has, and just as it can always
be relied upon to do. There is not.
nor can there be. any middle ground
between what is ,repu blican'a and what
is anti-republican.- Topeka Capital

Two Pointed Questions Answered.

What is the use of making a better
article than your competitor if you
cannot get better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference in
the price the public will buy only the
better, so that while our profits may
be smaller on single sale they will be
much greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
II both articles are brought promin-
emily before the public both are GER
tain TO be tried and the public will
very quickly pass judgement on them
and use only the better one.

house VIM. Gilletts ''Secret Service"

each member in itreceived praise from

the interest Of the confederate states

The whole performance was one OF
the very best that have ever been seen

have come through his teachings have
been sanctifed by his suffering. But
not only have we received OF
his suffering in the way. OF
secular and temporal blessings, but in
escaping the worst firm suffering
ourselves and receiving spiritual and
eternal blessings. For He hath born
our 0riefs and carried our sorrows. "
He was wounded for our transRres-
sione, he was bruised for our inlqult1es
the chastisement of.our peace WAS upon
him: and with his stripes We are heal
ed.''
The death of Jesus wss the execu-
ton OF a penalty pronounced upon
men. There was no law that called
for Christ's execution. The law called
for me, guilty sinner, and demanded
answered to my name, died in my
stead. Therefore in the eyes OF the
law 1 have paid she penalty, 1 am
dead. OF the fulness of his sufferings
have all we received legal release
from the penalty of the law.
But not only have we died to the
law that Furnishes for sin, but to the
power of sin itself. Christ's sutferin e
and death brings not only a ransom but
"God sending his only son in the like
ness of sinful flesh, condemned s1u in
the nesh." Again, "Knowing this, that
our old man is crucified with him, that
the body of sin might be destroyed,
that hen ceforsh we should not serve
sin" ''God forbid that should glory, "
says he, ''save in the
cross OF our Lord Jesus Christ
by which the world is cruci-
fed to me and 1 to the world" The
moment a man gives himself to God
through faith in Jesus that moment
sin in his body is hung upon the cross
to die. The struggle on the part OF
sin for life may be long, but ultimately
the crucified must die utterly. In the
goodness and mercy of God it is already
reckoned to be dead in Us; for all that
took place in Christ is reckoned 10 have
taken plscc in the believer. Hence
we are told to reckon ourselves dead in
deed unto sin but alive to our Lord
Jesus Christ.
Thus of the fulness OF his humanity !;
his matchless character and teachings,
his sufferings and death have all we
received in the untold temporal bless
ing of peace on Garth, good will to men.
and the eternal blessings of salvation
and satisfaction of our souls.
