Ashland Clipper: Public ownership,
socialism and the like advancements in
civilization and government, were few
years ago crime, in the eyes of GER
tain political gang, but you will notice
that Kansas City, Topeka, Winfield and
other towns are fast arranging to own
their lights and waterworks. These
same parasite politicians keep pulling
back. They say it is all right now for
the people to own such small things, but
that it has then gone far enough. They

pecially the express companies robbing

say don't go any further with public

tect him from honest investigation
would be most serious blunder, which
would react upon the Republican admin
istration. Let us have the facts about
the doings Of this political Secretary of
War, who has apparently made such a
wholesale sacrifice Of the health and
lives of American soldiers to further his
unworthy ambitions.
Baltimore News: From the beginning
to the end Mr.. Alger seems to have used

under closer examination, the results
which might be expected from a polit-
iCal appointment are unearthed and the
impression is growing that we may
thank Admiral Cervera and General
Toral that the bravery Of our soldiers
did not prove Intellectual.
New York Sun: War department Off
cials say that it has been through no lack
of effort upon their part that affairs
in the army have been in so deplorable
a state. They have intended to supply
everything needed for the comfort and
safety of the troops, they assert, but
their efforts have failed signally in the
accomplishment of the desired purpose.
It Is the general belief that when an in
vestigation is made it will be found that
to large extent the trouble has been
due to the placing of inexperienced and
incompetent men in charge of important
duties. Critics Of the Secretary of War
declare that he was himself incompetent
to conduct the War department in time
of actual war, and there can be little
question that the Secretary must bear
great part of the blame. But aside from
his actual direction of affairs, the ap-
pointment of untried men to important
posts was among the gravest blunders
committed by Secretary Alger.

the water courses is being bought by the

and other streams unless they spend
little money in buying up few water
ing places along the stream.
Kansas City Star: The Twenty-third
Kansas regiment, cOlOred, embarked for
Cuba yesterday, being the first Kansas
regiment to sail for foreign shore. 1t
is to be hoped that this will create no
jealousy among the white Kansas regi-
ments which still remain in their camps
Of instruction. The black Kansas troops
have met with little encouragement in
their own State except from Governor
Leedy and people of their own color. 1t
is a singular turn in affairs which has
given them the post of honor in being
the first Kansas troops to go to the front.
They are reported to have embarked In
high spirits, the only shadow cast (sup-
posing a shadow visible upon their coun-
tenances) being caused by the thought
that they would probably be unable to
return in time to vote for Governor
Leedy.
Beloit Call: The Republican bosses
howl about Democrats swallowing Pops
and Pops swallowing Democrats in a
most incoherent and frantic manner In
their madness and disgruntled state of
mind The Republican bosses see that
the progressive elements OF the State are
out for business and mean business, and
this is what enrages the tools Of the rob-
bing corporations and plutocratic bond
grabbers. The Leedy administration has
accomplished a great work of reform for
the people. The State is in the highest
financial standing in its history. Emil
grafton and capital are coming in The
State institutions are being run with
great economy and efficiency, and the
sOulless corporations are made to obey
and respect the laws of the common
wealth. The Republicans are on the run.
They are demorallzed and seeking places
to hide from the doom that surely awaits
them in November.
st. Mary's Star: People who pride
themselves on their educational system
and who take an interest in its improve
ment, will hardly be willing to exchange
a man like Superintendent Stryker for
candidate Nelson. Mr.. Nelson knows alb
solutely nothing about the needs of the
schools Of Kansas, has never held cer-
tlficate and never taught q public school.
The only experience he has had in edu-
catiOnal matters was two years in which
he taught elOcution in a Swedish college
in western Kansas. On the other hand,
Mr. Stryker has been identified with the
public schools Of Kansas for years. He
has made life work of teaching, holds
a State certificate, and has, during his
career as a teacher, conducted thirty
normal institutes. He has been superin-
tendent the past two years and no fault
has been found with him. During that
time he has done much for the schools
and has manifested great interest in
them.
