For Bridge Painters.

The other day." says Walt Mason.
''as We were driving down behind our
family rhin0cerous, we came upon an
aged man tearing bridge TO pieces
and placing il npnn wagon. AS the
bridge was one Ne r"eded in our
business, we asked the .. GIN, mariner

which case, why 80, or in other words
to that effect. He replied My eye.

The Tribune Weeps.

Bro. Townsley of the Tribune, is
terribly worried over the fate of the
democratic patty of Kansas, ard has
been weeping crocodile tears over its
late action in joining forces with all
opposition to gold-bug republicani-m.
OF course he weeps. And when he
thinks that for eight long years Kan
sas has been out of the republican COL
umn in national affairs; when he re-.
fleets that in 1896 the electoral vote of
Kansas MAS cast for the DE- mocratic
candidate for PRESIDENT; when he re-
members that all his old political asso
ciates. the rusty aud corroded barnacles
of Kansas republicanism, have long
been kept from the public crib Except
few who crawled into the postoffices
through rat buIeS made in the dark by
Chef Long,; wlcn he realizes that the
unanimous action of the democratic
convention at Atchison in renominat-
ing the entire present state officers
makes certain the defeat OF the repub-
lican state ticket, he Indeed weeps and
grows weary. Poor fellow! He is too
slow, too far behind the times to ever
realize that party principle holds more
strength than party name. that magma
nimity wins more friends than trickery
and chlcapery, and that a people
united for the best interests of their
homes and firesides are more likely to
stand shoulder to shoulder throu Oh all
battles political and otherwise, than a
people who are held together by party
name and an open purse, especially
when that party name Republican, has
been captured entire by the mercenar-
les and spoilsmen and no longer stands
for the rights of the people.

WE ALL get impatient at what we
call the unnecessary delay in pushing
the war in Cuba. Perhaps the ad :
ministration is right in going so slow.
When we think of our own boys who
may be set up as targets for some
Spaniards in ambush to shoot at, we
are inclined to believe that it is pos.
sibly best to take more time, spend
more money, run the risk of having
fewer of our boys killed. "Delay is
dangerous" bu: sometimes undue
haste is more dangerous.
