Peace and After.
Boston Herald.

Boston Herald.
There are immediate and pressing
problems to follow peace. No nation
ever leaves a conquered country at
once to itself. Military occupation
in such Instances is the most obvious
of necessities. If the war Ia over, the
necessities of keeping the army we
have raised for it, or a very consid
cradle portion of this army, continue.
1t is a necessary concOmitant OF
peace, and because of 1t there must
still be heard the military note in
the land. Let US hope that it may

Mystery of the Mosquito

Binghamton, n. Y, Leader.
The mosquito was doubtless
created for some wise end. but it Is
not easy to tell what that end is,
unless it is to afford the race a
wholesome but painful reminder that
life was not intended to be all a
picnic. The original plans and speci-
fications of the mosquito included a
thirst for human blood, and the in
sect is still built in the old way.

How Ehey Failed To Perform The

How rhey Failed To Perform Their
Promises
Chatham Record.
Many honest white men have voted
with the Populists and Republicans
because they were made to believe
that, under Democratic rule, the
taxes We're too high, the expendi-
lures were too extravagant and the
fees and salaries of our public officers
were too high. And the 40 called
Performers" solemnly and repeatedly
promised TO reunce all these to
correspond with The low price OF
farm products >
But have they done this?
Have they reduced taxes?
Have they reduced expenditures
Have they reduced any salarita
and fees?
And yet they had an overwhelming
majority in the two lnnt Legislatures
and had the fell power To 20 all these
thingsl
Instead of doing these things, thev
have placed many of our enstern
towns and counties under the con
troll of negroes

JUDGE WELLS TO RESIGN.
Says He Will Not Wait for Stanley to
Fire Him From the Board

Judge NJ. w. Wells, chairman Of the
state board of pardOns, says it is not
true that the governor has not the
power to discontinue the board of par
dOnS at WILL Notwithstanding the con-
tentiOn of some of the Republicans who
are asking for a place on the board, and
that he, for one, will get out of the way
before Governor Stanley is Inaugural
ted
THE law says that the board of par
dons shall serve during the pleasure of
the governor said Judge Wells, so
that he can do away with the board any
time he pleases. If Governor Stanley
does not want a board of pardons he is
not compelled to have one, and I shall
get out of his way as soon as my work
is done. AS soon as the present session
of the board is completed I expect to
hand in my resignation and Mr.. Stan
ley can fill the vacancy or not

STATE GRAIN INSPECTOR.
Southern Kansas Grain Dealers Meet
and Urge the Anthony Mans
Candidacy.

WELLINGTON, Dec. 16.-The Southern
Kansas Grain Dealers association, com
prising the several counties of southern
central Kansas, held a meeting here
last night, to consider the merits of the
several applicants for the state grain
insDectorship under Governor Stanley.
The Southern Kansas association is
auxiliary to the Kansas Grain Dealers
association, and has for its object the
protection of the interests of Kansas
grain dealers. The association is or
ganized into local bodies for cOnven-
fence. J. T. Richmond of Anthony, a
member of the local association, is
candidate for state grain Inspector and
he was present at the meeting last night
in the interest of his candidacy. He sue
ceeded in having q resolution passed
pledging him the support of the local
association in his race for the office.
! Richmond's most dangerous opponent
is E. D. Morgan of Coffeyville-
The Kansas Grain Dealers aSSOcia-
ton will undoubtedly control the ap-
pointment of the state grain inspector
ship and the local organizations will
! endeavor to control the appointment of
! deputies for the different counties.
Hence applicants for deputyships will
have to bear the inspection of the local
| grain dealers organizations before they
| will find favor in the eyes of the next
| state grain Inspector
BY naming the next state grain in
/ sDector as well as his deputies, the kan
! sas grain dealers will have achieved a
great victory over Kansas City The
| Kansas grain dealers have long been
! engaged in a bitter fight with the ele-
/ vator owners and grain spectators in
! Kansas City, and recently have sue
! ceeded in stopping a serious leak where
/ by the Kansas City spectators reaped
/ a rich harvest at the expense of the
| Kansas dealers. Through the system
! of elevator weighing recently forced
/ upon the Kansas City and AtchisOn ele-
/ vator owners by the association, the
| average shortage in the cars of wheat
/ has been reduced from IL and 2 per
| cent to one-fourth of one per cent.

''First-That nowhere in the United
States is there as happy, prosperous,
and sober a people as is found in the
average Kansas community-largel
due believe to our two decades of pro-
hibitiOn, and to the inculcation of tenn
perance principles in our schools and
churches.
''Second-That the licensed grog shop
is the greatest moral and economic
course that can possibly aff1ict any COM
munity or state.
'Third-That to permit the return of
the saloon to Kansas would be suicidal
to all the best interests of the state.
and would drive from her borders many
of her best citizens and no small
amount of her wealth.
''FOurth-That the eyes of the world
are on Kansas, and that it is the uni
versal conviction that as Kansas de-
cides this question after so many years
of prohibition, so in time will the coun-
try at large decide it.
1.-THE greater activity recently begun
should be no means be permitted to
Wane. 1t should be extended to every
home, to every school, to every church,
to every cOmmunity-it should be ex-
tended everywhere. The time is at hand
for the greatest movement the state has

Pledge signing should be renewed. The

During the present year the State
Temperance union has done much TO
advance the cause of temperance in
Kansas It's officers and executive
committee have managed its affairs
carefully and wisely, but none the less
aggressively. The people ought to raj
