Chief Justice Doster, of the Kansas
6preme court, who is leading popu-
list IN his own state, has just returned
rom Cuba, where he went to visit his
on, who is major in the 22nd Kansas
Judge Doster bears testi-
nony to the splendid discipline and
rider everywhere manifested on the
part of the army, and says that the
officers are mostly respon-
lave been discovered in the care and
equipment of the army. This seems TO
Ne the true spirit in which to study the
history of the controversy now going
IN. The secretary of war cannot per-
onally superintend the execution of
,rders delivered to thousands of men
n different places at various times.

There should be no dissatisfaction
lmong Republicans throughout the
county because some particular candi-
late, who was being pushed for place
IN the ticket, did not receive the nom
nation. 1t is one of the strong char
lcteristics of the Repdbl lean party to
Ne loyal and although 1T times well
aid plans may be OVERTURNED in con
Tention, ttheyaccept the situation and
ONE up Smiling at the polls. Party is
,reater than any one individual. Let
very Republican put on the whole
lrmprof Republicanism and go into
he campaign this fall to win without
he loss of a man on the ticket. 1t can
We done.

The denomination of Hon. Il. S.
Nagar OF Edmore by the Republican
Convention last Friday by
was tribute to his popu-
arity and ability as a legislator. He
made an excellent record in the senate
md his business like methods in deal.
ng with important measures and ques-
ions, brought up for consideration,
commanded the respect and admiration
# his fellow senator's. He is broad
minded and was always found on the
light side OF every question. He
hould be returned to the senate with
! larger majority than he received two
ears ago.

One of the reasons why the Republi-
an party since its organization has
Usually been successful, is because 1t
las had due regard for public senti-
nent. This is a government of major
ties. The Democratic party, while
to stand by the majority in
II things, is always following that
ointment which is the outgrowth of
'ery small minority.
