beneficiary of a trust or comoine. |
Neither is he subsidized by tariffs,
nor has he pull of any kind what
soever upon anybody under the sun.
The Kansas farmer relies upon his
own resources, and whether his crops
are good or bad, he must take the
consequences.
In times past he has found it neces-
sary to borrow money. 1t was fur.
nlshed largely by eastern people, who
sent it out to their trusted agents
who inspected the lands, and both
agent and money lOaner were glad to
pocket the commissions and high
rate Of interest. Hard times CINE to
the farmer, and foreclosures came
thick and fast. Since this became
the order of the day eastern people
and eastern papers have said nothing
creditable to Kansas farmers. On
the other hand, they have heaped OBJ
prObrium on the shoulders Of.Kansas
people in every language at their
command. Now that fortune has
smiled on our farming community,
they facetiOusly twit US about having
money to burn. This is all true, but
our farmers will make better use of
the money. They will use it in pay
Ing OFF mortgages and judgments,
principal and interest, and, in so
doing, be able to breathe the air of
freedom once more. Having done
this they are in no position to be
jeered at by the snObs and scribblers
of the east. Further than this, they
reserve the right to hold opinions
touching the character of these de-
famers of western people, and by so
doing the henOrs will be easy. The
eastern Skinfint will have his money,
the western farmer will have his farm
clear Of debt, aud each will exercise,
to his hearts content, the right of
private judgment as to relative claims
upon moral honesty. The rule works
both ways with admirable precision.

The Topeka correspondent of the
Kansas City Times is authority for
the statement that enough assur-

to warrant the calling of the extra

advise the Governor to place little

to the Sun or any of its ilk. II our

little stale wit out of such remarks

That month of all others is the one
in which the farmers cannot be
spared from their fields. The date
proposed, June 20, will be right in
the midst of harvest and not one
farmer in fifty could attend. The
professional politicians and 6xers
could sure have their way on any
proposition that might arise. The
farmer is the balance wheel of the
PopuliSt party and is entitled to be

advantage OF him at the polls. Go

were instructive, and are calculated
to result in much good to the CON-

The Cary's are patriotic. The stars
and stripes were prominent every
where in the decorations. Flags
and bunting hung in feStoons from
the ceiling and were eDtwined
among the pillars. The Cary colors.
blue and white, were tremendously
arranged with the national decora-
tions. House plants and flowers added
their beauty to the interior of the
church.
The program was delightfully."- inter
spersed with music. The papers and
addresses each occupied about five
minutes in reading or delivery. They
were all bright and entertaining.
There were no sleepy numbers on the
program. Each participant did her
best and did it in way that could
not be eXcelled. There were 40 parts

mention above any of the other parts
Each number was so well handled and
so carefully treated as tn deserve the
