THE SANTIAGO BOMBARD-
MENT DESCRIBED.
ron Battered the Spanish
Forts and Ships.


Jamaica, June ~ a. m.-For
an hour yesterday afternoon, the
Massachusetts,, Iowa, New Orleans
and NiNen,of Commodore Schley,s
squadron exchanged shots with
the Spanish fleet under Admiral
Cervera and with the land bat
torics guarding the harbor of
Santiago dc Cuba, behind which
the Spanish fleet is hiding. The
engagement was the first which
has occurred between the two
naval forces and was but a pre-
Iude TO serious work in the latter
part OF the week. No attempt
was made by the American com
mander TO bring ON general en-
@agement, ii being his desire to
locate the batteries on the hills
above the harbor and to deter
mine the position of the Spanish
forts.

Stock Growers.

Every man who raises head OF
stock for the market is directly inter-
ested in getting stock to the market
as cheaply as possible, for the cheap
er it can be carried the more money
there will be left for him.
In the celebrated case tried before
Judge Rand dolph at Elmporia in which
the railroa Is we're restrained from
putting into effect the one hundred
pound rate as against the car load
rate, the shippers of live stock are
benefited to the amount of from 50 to
Sd on every car handled.
The secretary of the Kansas Live
Stock Association estimates that the
saving to the shippers of the State of
Kansas will amount to between $500,
90 and $4OO, 900 per annum. and it is
safe to say that this estimate is Il
conservative one. This is another
matter in which the state administra-
tion has beniftted every farmer in
Kansas

Stanley ond the A. P. A,

The republican party, not satisfied
with their efforts to make patriotism
a matter of partisanship, arc now en-
deavOring to make a religious test.
1t is probably not generally known
over the state as the matter Is being
kept exceedingly quiet, that the repub-
lican party in Sedgwick county, Mr..
Stanley's home, has nominated
complete A. P. A. ticket.
We will guarantee that those vho
have heard Mr.. Stanley's speeches,
have heard no word of protest against
the course pursued by the republicans
of his home town. 1t is fair to sup.
pose that every effort is being made
by Mr.. Stanley's local managers to
carryothat county for him. They have
evidently decided that the way TO do
it is through the A. p. A. movement.
We have no word of criticism to Of
fer as to any mans religion, but
would like to call attention to the fact
that the constitution of the United
States guarantees every man religious
liberty, and when any political party
makes a religious test in an election
they are acting in direct violation of
the constitution.
If this matter were fully known and
appreciated in the State of Kansas,
it is safe to say that Mr.. Stanley
would not receive any appreciable
amount of the Roman Catholic vote,
The Roman Catholics in the state are
largely among the Germans, who ars
among our best citizens, steady,
thrifty and slaw-abiding, and to be
slapped in the face on account of
their religion seems to us to be an
outrage.
1t is useless to say that Mr.. Stanley
is not respolsi ible for this as it occurs
in his home town and the pressure
brought to bear upon the editor of the
Wichita eagle, who is now the post,
master of Wichita, is so great that he
is lending the influence of his p per
to supporting an a. p. A. ticket, al
though he has for years personally
and editorially opposed dragging re-
ligion in to politics. If we ever have
a religious test in political matters in
this country w. Eugene Stanley will
be more directly responsible for it
than any other man in the State.

A Question.

Did YOU buy any school hooks this
year? If you did, contrast the price
paid with the price you had to pay
for similar books prior to the passage
of the school text book law, which
law was passed by the last legislature.
1t is perfectly safe estimate to say
that every school child in Kansas has
been fitted out with school books thi
year at an average expense OF ii y
cents less than under the old law.
Then consider that there are about
100000 school children in the StI,@
and YOU see al once. chat the saving
to the people on this one item alone
has been at least q quarter of a mil
lion of dollars. This is another of
the things that the popnlists have
done for you.

The Price of Coal.

Every man in this county who burne
Colorado coal was surprised to learn
last year that his coal was costing
him about one dollar per ton less than
the year before. The same price pre-
walls this year. How many are there
of the readers of this paper who stop
ped for even q moment to inquire
the cause of this reduction? Certainly
very few. Had you inquired you
would have learned that the reductio on
in the price of coal was directly at
tri ributed to the action of the State
Board of Railroad COmmiss toner's,
who in May, 1897, after having pre-
viously notified the railroad compan-
les that the rate on coal from Colora-
do in to Kansas must be reduced,
had a meeting with the representa-
tives of the railroads and stated their
views on this question, the result be-
ing that after several conferences the
railroads put in reduced rate.
which has resulted in the reduction of
one dollar per ton on every ton to the
buyers of coal in this county.
When you are asked what benefit
the present administration has given
to you, YOU can safely state that the
present administration has saved yon
this one dollar per ton on every ton
of coal you have bought since the
the spring of 1897.
The republican papers have been
industriously circulating the idea that
this reduction was made voluntarily
by the railroad companies. We who
have lived in Kansas know that the
railroad companies do not make re-
ductions unless compelled to do SO.
The men who own the railroads do
not live in Kansas. They have no
interest in, Kansas except to draw
dollars out. sas
In this connection it is. we'll 30 re-
member thai the republican party has
always been dominated by she raft
roads, has always been friendly to
the railroads and if returned to pow
er will do whatever tho railroads want
done.

1t will be remembered that when

the battle cry of the republicans was
for a business administration. It will
also be remembered that the first

ON every populist office-ho older, the
mos. notable one of which was made
on Senator Rogers. who was one of

The records show that Gov. Nor

for over $1,000 il this case, and that a
deficiency appropriation was asked,
bringing the amout up to nearly $1,000.
all of which was expended for the
laudable purpose of getting a man out
of a S4Oa job.
The conspiracy was successful and
all that WAS proved in this expensive
investigation. was, that during his

times, but the republican party has
to have it regardless of the price.

Smith Manufacturing company, a big
medicine concern of this city, has been
sticking poster on every package it
sends by express, denouncing the ex-
press and telegraph companies. The
poster reads:
"As American citizens, proud of
our country. we are willing and ready
to pay all taxes enjoined upon us.
We protest. however, against being
obliged TO pay taxes fixed by law upon
express companies or other corpora
tions that possess no bodies to be
kicked, souls to be damned. or hearts
to be patriotic. 1t lily becomes these
who share the privileges and benefits
OF this nation to attempt to avoid pay
ing their just share toward maintain
ing the honor and integrity of this
government in the present hour of
financial need. For these reasons we
believe that each shipper of goods
should pay especial attention to this
matter and divert as much shipping
rs possible from the combination of
express companies, and ship as much
as possible by mail or freight.
"The mail service of this country
is unparalleled and entirely worthy
of patronage and confidence, and it
has done more than all other factors
combined in the past to protect the
people from extortion and force the
express companies to a moderate and
reasonable charge for their services.
"We, as shippers, are in favor of
packages that may be sent by mail
and lowering the rate of charges where
the charges where the packages weigh
between two and eight pounds. We
fee, willing to work for this end, and
hereby urge that each representative
in congress be appealed to by person
letter from each person in his district
who is doing any shipping by ex-
press.
-"We, as q business firm. will here
after ship all our small packages that
go at a prepaid rate, by mail; and
arrangements have already been made
whereby these packages will be in
sured to reach their destination. We
shall pay the trifling cost of such
guarantee, and this cost of insuring
will not be charged to the customer.
s 1t is time that the legislation were
enacted looking to the regulation of
the express rates and telegraph rates.
"The person or firm to whom this
package is sent is surely interested in
this. and it is hoped that they will
give the attention it deserves.
ITO Voters:-Iustruct your senator
and representative to vote for law
to regulate express and telegraph
rates."

on the express company receiving and
