There is nothing truly valuable
which can be purchased without
pains and labor.
Thirty minutes is long enough
for good sermon and too long for
a poor one.
Nothing is denied to well-direct-
ed labor; nothing is to be obtained
without it.

man who lives upon what he has,
owes nothing, and is oontented.
What we think, or what we
know, or what we believe, is in the
end of little consequence. The
only thing of consequence is what
we do.
The fortunate man is he who,
born poor, or nobody, works grad

ton, and having got them, dies
before he finds they were not worth
so much trouble.

The noisless dexterity with which the
German propaganda of reconciliation has
been pushed forward in France Is chiefly
to be ascribed to that aged and aStute
diplomatists. Count Munster, the German
Ambassador in Paris who has just been
raised to the rank of Prince. This Is the
highest honor with which the German
Emperor can recognize tn emerfts of one
of his subjects. 1t is conferred on Count
Munster nominally for his work at the
Peace conference; but as his role at The
Hague waas chiefly one of abstention, he
Is really recompensed for the great ser
vices he has undoubtedly rendered in
bringing to a successful issue a task
which he undertook under great Difficult
ties, when in 1885 he was transferred from
London to Paris.
Count MINISTER'S efforts favae no doubt
been seconded BY the personal visits OF
Prince Hohenlohe. the German Chancel-
lor, to France on the idylic pretext Of
looking after his farms in Norway, but
actually for the purpose of comforting
with successive French ministers of for
eign affairs. Nor has Germany neglected
to requisitfon the assistance OF her two
allies. Italy has just intimated to France
that unles sthe German Emperor is in
presence there Of the king of Italy, his
ally, might be misconstrued. and can
therefore not be decided till this delicate
point is settled. On the other hand,
Count Goluchowski, the Austrian foreign
minister, has gone to Paris on pleasure
trip, and on his return is expected to con-
fer with the German Chancellor. who Is
now at Curssee, near Ischl.

self up to her quondam mortal enemy.
But, on the other hand. these are cues
lions on which Russia may accept Ger
man cooperation, provided the chief role
is reserved to her. This Germany IS hard

helpless without the support of Russia.

such a situation. But French affairs
are liable to so many fluctuations and
to changes so unforeseen that, with Ger

to establish a stable govern
ment there, is loyalty: TO Oh
pose it is disloyality. We
condemn and denounce the
unpatriotic and un.American
utterances of all who are Civ.
ing encouragement to the Fill.
pinos in their resistance to
the American flag. Never yet
has the old flag reiterated
before any armed foe, and
wherever raised there it must
stay.
The aggregation in this
county known as the Fusion
party is neither moved by,
nor in possession of, a con-
viction or moral principle.
It has abandoned every issue
which brought it into life
save the greed for Office, and
it now seeks by having its
platform of treason adopted
by the people of this county
to bring the fair name and
fame of Sedgwick county into
disrepute and to disgrace the
name of the gallant soldier
which it bears.
We are opposed to aggre-
gated capital, whether organ
lied in the form of trusts,
corporations or otherwise for
the purpose of controlling
the industrial affairs of the
people, and, we demand of
our party in this state and in
the nation such legislation
which will at all times be for
the best interests of all the
people. That it is our con-
viction that every great ques-
ton in which the people of
this country have been inter
ested has been in the past
and will be in the future,
settled in the interest of the
people, by that genius of
justice and right which pre-
walls in and which brought
the Republican party into
existence; that it has the
ability and integrity to prop
erly settle and adjust the
relations of capital and labor
in the interest of the people.

LEES PLAN FOR GOBA
Provides for an Independent
Republican Government
UNCLE SAM TO STAND BY
And See That It Properly
RepubIiCanizes.

Chicago, Sept. IA special 90 the
Ttmcs-Herald from Washington says:
General Fftzhugh Lee has made an eiab-
crate report on prevailing conditions in
the territory IN CHA under his ju-isdic-
ton. and takes strong ground for Gu indie
pendent government for the Cubans under
American protectOrate. The war depart
met in March. directed the commanders
Of departments in Cuba TO make a report
on the conditions In their several sections
and to accompany It with recommenda-
tions as to the treatment of the natives.
General Lee Is the only commander who
has so far responded. General Lee begins
his report by stating that conditions In
Havana and Pinar Del Rio provinces are
making rapid progress toward state OF
peace, good order and prosperity. He
goes into this in great detail. taking up
the subject town-by-town and showing a
general Improvement throughout the
western end of the island. His report in
this respect Is very gratifying. Indicating
as 1t does that there Is not as much suf-
fering from want OF food as Is often as
serted in unofficial reports
Turning to recommendations, General
Lee urSts the taking Of census as a
first step toward the establishment of
self-government. General Lee thinks the
next step should be the careful considera-
ton Of the questions Of suffrage for the
CUbans. He takes II for granted that
there will be elections by the natives and
he points out the importance OF wise ac-
ton in determining the qualifications OF
voters. He recommends an independent
republican government, with a president.
a vice president and a congress. He
would have this established and advises
the holding of a general election for the
selection of these officers. He says moth
ing about a constitution. leaving Il To be
inferred that he either overlooked that
step or would have It left to the Cuban
congress TO provide after its installation in
Office. In this connection ne lays stress
upon the need of a system OF jurispru-
deuce suitable for an independent gov
eminent and so guarded as to secure JUS
tice to the people.
General Lee evidently foresees that
while the United States might provide
Cuba with a model system OF government
the natives would be likely to spoil IL in
the administration. and ne has submitted
suggestions for keeping the government
machinery running along lines that COM
med themselves to the American mind. He
says the United States should keep n
strict supervision over Cuba until its re-
publican government is completed and
firmly established. Even after relieving
the Cubans in part of American protec-
ton. he would have United States +roops
maintained in the Island to protect Amer
fcans and other aliens in the enjoyment
of their personal property rights

PLATFORM.

The Republican party of
Sedgwick county respectfully
and briefly states its convic-
lions upon the questions of
public interest.
It has full confidence in the
integrity, craftsmanship and
high purposes of WILLIAM
MCKINLEY, president of the
United States. 1t is our be-
lief that his administration
has added to the renown and
stability of Republican insti-
buttons and forms of govern
ment at home and abroad;
that its influence marks the
beginning of a new era in
which humanity has been adj
vanced to a higher plane, at
home and in the nations of
the world; that his admins
tration has restored national
prosperity, and we agree with
the words of the great Demo
cratic New York World, ut is

try" that it has placed the
country where of right it
properly belongs-the leader
among the powers of the
world.
That the administration of
the affairs of this state, now

our own county, the Hon. W.
E. Stanley, as chief executive.

of, and does, receive our most
cordial endorsement.
With intense satisfaction
we commend the glorious rec.
ord made by our army and
navy and the unexampled
gallantry of General Funston
and our Kansas volunteers in
the Philippine campaign.
1t is our deliberate convic.
