Politics are supposed to be
dirty. Politics are known to be
nasty. When the head of any
political party and its cabinet
forces the people to foot its
bills it is nasty twice over.
President Mckinley and his
cabinet have swung the circle,
were away from their post OF
duty fifteen days and made one
hundred and seventy speeches.
The people foot the bills aud
&he circle was made for politi,
cal capital. The first presi'
dents of the U. S. A. were
brainy, nervous, high strung
gentlemen who did not know
how to stOop to the level Of a
common word hummer. Things
have changed for the better
of the politician. What has be-
come of the by the Eternal l
wili!" The doctrines of and
practices of Lord Roscoe, The
Plumed Knight, of Lincoln, of
Grant and honesty?

A NEW CREDIT SYST EN-.
County Merchants Watched By Their
Debtors.

County Merchants Watched By Their
Debtors.
From the Fayette Advertiser.
County publishers receive
subscriptions now and then
from city firms who can have
no interest in the local news of
the paper. The Kingston Mer-
curry has had several such from
Chicago, Kansas City and st.
Joseph, running usually from
three to six months. This par.
agraph from the New York
Times, may explain the reason
for these foreign subscriptions:
"A wholesale grocer in this
city who has become rich at the
business says that his rule is
that when he sells Il bill of
goods on credit to Immediately
subscribe for the local paper Of
his debtor. So long as his GUS
toner advertised liberal y, he
rested, for he knew the fellow
was wide awake and thrifty
and making an honest effort to
do business; but as soon as the
advertising dwindled away he
took the fact as evidence that
there was trouble ahead and
things uncertain, and invaria.
bly, kept close tab on the debt
or. Sand he, The man who is
too poor to make his business
known, too Iistless to push it,
is too poor to do business. The
withdrawal of an advertisement
is evidence of weakness that
business men are not slow to
act upon.
