In letter to the Pittsburg Tribune
of March -, 1898, congressman E. R.
Ridgley recorded himself as follsws:
ITO our shame as q nation, we are
being used through control of the
president, as a mere tool to help this
ring of spectators, while hundreds Of
thousands of human lives are being
crushed in Cuba that Shylock may get
his pound of flesh.
"How long. oh, how long, will the
liberty-loving people of the republic
permit these gamblers to control
every administration. and thus use our
government to turn human blood into
dollars, both at home and in Cuba?
Our president is but clay, being ma
nipulated by Hanna and his crowd.
These capitalists rule our administra-
ton. and the people mourn. May their
cries reach the presidents ears, and
may he turn his back to Shylock and
his face to humanity, is the prayer of
yours truly,
(Signed) E. R. RIreLEY."
But he now sings q different song.
At G. A. r. campfire in Topeka las!
week he attuned his harp thus:
I'm meeting with President McKin.
ley in my official capacity 1 found in
him q sympathetic heart for all suf.

BOTKIN'S INCONSISTENCY.
The Congressman-at-Large 10 Getting His
Stories on "Alscrism" Slightly
Mixed.

A few weeks ago. soon after his son
arrived at Leavenworth from Camp
'Alger, Congressman Jerry Botkin took
occasion to express himself ON the AL
gerism of the yellow journals. He
said:
II do cot take any stock in these
stories about the il. treatment of the
soldiers There is my boy, for in
stance. He has gained IS pounds since
he enlisted in the army. He is fat and
robust and has made good soldier"
A few dsys later the young man
went to Topeka to visit relatives.
While there he took sick. He is now
at home suffering with typhoid fever.
Now Botkin claims Alger is to blame
because his son gained Is pounds in
the service and took the typhoid fever
while visiting at Topeka.
Mr.. Bctkin's son, Ralph, was a mem.
bar of the Twenty-second Kansas He
got in through q personal appeal to
the president He was stationed at
Camp Alger and returned to Kansas
with his regiment. in good health.
In view of his utterances on the re-
turn of his son from Camp Alger, the
following quotation from an interview
last week places Congressman Botkin
in a ridiculous light:
Il am so indignant at the treatment
my boy received that do not allow
myself to talk about it."

In making his report to the governor,
tiary says:
referring again for a moment to the
mine discussion with reference to tho
sale of coal, I want to call your atten-
ton to the fact that during the last
two fiscal years there has been sold,
all told, 6s9. 6Ss bushels, as against -
o52. 641 bushels reported in the bien-
NAL report published by Mr.. Lynch for
the two fiscal years preceding"
Mr.. Lynch was the republican war.
den under the Morrill, administration.
The fiscal year ends on June 80 of each
year.
E G. Pipp. of Usage City. who is
perhaps, the best informed man in the
state on coal statistics. takes up the
report and shows how Warden Lands
attempts to work ICON" game on the
coal miners of Kansas. M. Pipp says:
Taking the statements as put by Mr..
Lands it leaves the impression that
considerable less coal was sold under
his wardenship than under that of Mr..
Lynch's yet the reverse of that state
ment is true. and that is why papers
quoting the statements of Lands cam
not be relied upon. He is shrewd; he
puts his comparisons in such q way as
to take credit to himself that is due
otherA
The fiscal years included in Lynch's
repart covered from July 1. 1894 to
July I, 1896; the years included in
Lands report covered from July I,
1896 to July 1, 1898 During that
whole time there were three wardens
In charge of the penitentiary; two Of
them were populists and one q repub-
lican. Let us see what the records of
the three are as shown by the auditors
books in Topeka
Lynch, the republican warden, did
not go in until June 81, 1895; and so
his report included - months of the
wardenship of his populist predecessor.
Mr.. Chase, and 10 months of his own
wardenship Mr.. Lands went in Feb
ruary !, 1897. and his report included
seven months of Mr.. Lynch's admins
tration and II months of his own.
The following are the sales by tho
three wardens during their admins
tration within the four years referred
to in Mr.. Landis' statement:
Sold by Chase (populist) from July 1.
1894 to July l. 1895. 59a62

The republican average was about
$500 below the populist average. And
yet this is the exact period to which
Warden Lands refers in his report. in
which no makes It appear that it was
he who cut down the sales in the in
terest Of the minerA
Continuing, Mr.. Pipp makes the fol-
lowing charges, which are fully sup
ported by the records:
That tho present populist admins
tration put convict coal on the market
1t SL0S or less.
That their product has fallen into
the hands of the railroad companies
and other customers Of free minerA
That tho price under the new law 10
1T least % cents ton less than under
the old law.
That the populist party ignored its
platform pledge Of 1896, promising to
free the miners from convict compete
ton. Worse, we charge it with giving
. worse law than the old one.
Under the old law the surplus out
put Of the mines was sold to the
highest bidder on contract Accord
ing to Warden Landis' report 1,O52, 641
bushels were sold in the two years
from July /, 1894. to July 1. 1896. The
state auditors books show that $751;.
8s7. y in cash was turned in to pay for
that coal. That is nearly So cents .
bushel; to be exact, it was SLS6 ton.
But that was hurting the miners In
1896 wher they were having . hard
time, Gov. Morrill, ordered the sales
cut down as much as they could be
under the existing law and tho repub-
lican party promised to repeal the law
and free the miners entirely from con-
Wet competition. So did the populists
promise to do it The miners believed
the populists. gave them their votes.

Then the populists enacted a now
