other bits Senator PETER Of Kansas
has been blown back into the repub-
lican party. The Kansas populist
brings back with him the assurance
that the populist party is on the slide,
and a growth Of whiskers which were
the pride of Kansas until Col. Fred
Funston swan the river at Calumpit.
Senator Peffer's return to the fold is
without doubt due to the fact that
the populist party in Kansas has lost
its grip on the public teat, and he is
finding it irksome to work for q living.
While we believe the republican party
could have struggled along for several
years longer without Senator PETER,
it must face the calamity of his return
and turn it's attention to progress.
The party that has withstood the
shock Of greenbackism, passed un-
scathed through the ]grasshOpper
plague, bearded the free silver dragon
and knocked the boastful monarchy
of Spain several points off it's govern
mental equilibrium in one round, will
not give up in hopeless despair because
Senator PETER of Kansas has broken
in at q loose back window. Hardly.

Army officials are securing from
commanders of various posts in the
United States all expression of opinion
with regard to the abolition of post
canteens-whether in their opinion it
will result to the benefit or detriment.
The reason in this action lies in the
fact that through IN opinion of the at
torney general the amendment to the
army reorganization bill proposed by
Senator Hansbrough. which was car
ried. was disrcgarded by the secretary
of war. and it is believed there will be
some vigorous discussion of the matter
when congress convenes again. The
war department is securing the express
sions from post commanders to pre-
sent for the consideration of congress
in dealing with the matter.

had a state meeting and they declare:
We condemn the veto of Senate file
27O, the last legislatures vote of thanks
to the 1st Nebraska volunteers, now serv-
ing in the Philippine Islands, as unkind,
un-American and unpatriotic, and we
particularly resent the governors words.

watched with pride and satisfaction the
wise, conservative, unselfish, patriotic
and statesmanlike in which our
honored comrade. William Mckinley, as
president of the United States of Amer

cent trouble with Spain imposed upon
our country: that his wisdom and pru-
kence in his endeavors to preserve peace
with honor, as we'll as the vigor and pa
triotic order with which our army and
navy were equipped for the conflict when
war became imminent, have won our
hearty and unreserved approval and
commentator, and rejoicing in the glo-
rious termination of the conflict in which
our country has been engaged, we hereby
express our gratitude, not only to our
distinguished .comrade, the president of
the United States, but to the officers and

their heroic conduct and sublime achieve.

tiicts the world has ever known: the war
with Spain is probably nj of the least,
so far as actual operations are concerned,
that have been fought, but the results
are greater, perhaps, than any war we
have ever had. The fighting qualities of
the men are the same. The American
soldier is n with courage, nerve and
grit. He has been just the same at all
times, as he always will be, a courageous
and brave soldier, The exposure of our
campaign for a few days was very trying,
but it was nothing to compare in time
nor conditions to our war. We have a
deadly climate to contend with; worse,
in that respect, than anything w had to
contend with in our war. The improve
ment in firearms, of course, can not be a
matter of comparison. Our rations were
better than anything we ever had, or be-
lieved it possible for an army to have. in
our war. 1t is true that for a few days
we were short, but that was for lack of
transportation, and then we were never
without some portion of the ration, and
that portion more than our soldiers had
at the best during the civil war. l want
to thank you for your kind and tlattering
expressions, and want to say to you that
l wish you would take the trouble to
thank all the old soldiers who have been
good enough to express their satisfaction
and approval of my work, and say to
them, as J. have said to you, there is
nothing that makes me feel as proud or
as happy as their good opinion"

be such by the test Of twenty years,
is picked up by every new manufac.
turer Of ordinary kalsomine and
claimed for his goods. These claims,
on the face of them, are ridiculous,
but II will take a householder who
uses these goods perhaps two or three
years to find out that he has gotten
nothing but a temporary kalsomine;
and by that time the particular manu-
facturer may be out Of the market.
Alabastine is the only material that
can make the claim OF durability and

Indiana Glass Workers Idle.

Hartford City, Ind. June 6.-The
closing of the various glass factories
as the hot weather approaches brings
to light statistics concerning the glass
industry. In Indiana alone there are
10000 men employed in the glass fac
tories. During the hot weather this
number of people are out of employ
ment with few exceptions. Indiana is
the greatest window glass producing
state in the Union. There are forty
three window factories, thirty-three
flint glass factories, twenty-five green
houses and three plate glass concerns.
The window glass industry is con-
trolled entirely by three labor organi-
cations.
There is not a nonunion window
glass factory in the United State,
