HOW WILL YOU VOTE THIS FALL.

The average individual will always
be found standing by his own inter
ests, whatever may be his Judgment
of the wisdom of his neighbor's course.
As President-McKinley intimated at
Oakley, Iowa, last week, however we
may differ as to politics, one thing is
certain: Whereas, times were hard
four years ago and fear had overcome
courage, to-day all is changed. There
is no denying the general prosperity
which has come to this country.
People in this county are going to
vote this month for a continuation
of present conditions. You may call
it tempoI ary prosperity or an unreal
veal; you may lay it to good crops,
the famine in India. to the gold
standard, or to the moon. Itmatters
not. Farmers know that prices are
good; that times are good and that
the money is good; and they are sem
sible enough to cast vote of conf
dence for the political party that not
only promised good time but brought
them to the country. Conditions, as
they now exist, could hardly be i'm
proved upon; and the voters of this
county are going to serve notice that
they are for the party that brings
good times. It's a matter of business.
Farmers know a good thing when
hey see it, and are not going to vote
themselves back to the conditions of
,hree or four years ago. So the vote
his fall will be surprise to the poll
'icians who think they have them |

OGALLAH


The upper body of the legislature
last winter was Popnlist, and is no
less responsible for the increased rate
than is the lower house, which was
controlled by the Republicans. When
the Stanley administration came in
to power, it inherited a deficiency
OF SAC, 900 and bankrupt treasury.
from the Populist administration. In
order to meet a portion of the def
cheney and at the same time raise
enough money to pay the running ex-
penses of the state, the rate was in
creased. Even under the present levy
the Republicans will not be able to
pay up all the Pop deficiency.
In order to meet back bills and to
raise fund to complete the state
house and establish binding twina
plant the tax levy was fixed at 81
mills, an Increase of j 2-5 mills over
1897. The Populists claim that this
IS the heaviest levy ever made since
Kansas was state. In 1862, the state
tax was mills; from 1868 to 1869 it
was never less than 6 mills; in 1869 it
was 10 mills; from 1870 to 1876 it was
never less than mills; it was ST from
that time up to 1880. Then it was
gradually cut down until 1898. when.
IT. reached its loWest-3.S mills. Be-
ginning in 1893, the assessed valuation,
steadily decreased, while the state in
stltutlons kept on growing, thus de-
lnandlng more money to maintain.

find that he will make one of three

These are the only three reasons
that 1 have ever heard given"
We might have added to these
the additional treason" that the
administration relies largely upon
this unnecessary war to carry it
through the next campaign,
through much waving of the stars
and stripes and the invoking OF
the patriotism of the people to up
hold the government, otherwise

old Glory.

BY NJ. JENNIE. YAS MArRE.
Three cheers for Old Glory,
Was the cry that rang from many
yictors lips,
AS the defeated Spaniards looked
upon
Their wrecked and useless ships
AT the battle of Santiago,
When Old Glory rose high above all
How bravely they fought on that day
The ones that loved her,
How many of them now lay
In an unmarked grave,
On Spanish soil far away.
But ofthose who lived throught it,
How many today
Ifyou would ask them the question
How quickly they'd say,
That Old Glory as she rose over all
Repaid them thousand times,
For their brothers who had to fall.
