HARD LUCK STORY.
Emporia Boys in the Klondike, Broke,
Disguised and Homesick.

Emporia, April PA letter has been
received from the Emporia boys in the
Klondike They are Harry Lakin, A s.
Smith and Cliff Burge.
The letter received last evening was
written at Forty Mile creek, March 9,
and tells a hard luck story of the big
gold fields. During the winter the En-
poria men have been sick with the
scurvy, and were just able to be
around at the time the letter was
written. They have not been able to
leave the camp they built at Forty
Mile creek during the winter. Nothing
has been done, and they are all home
sick and Disguised. Harry says in the
letter that all the people around Forty
Mile creek and those who pushed on to
the North Fork, the place they intended
to go this winter, are not one making
stakes to pay expenses. The men are
pouring out of that district Many are
also leaving Forty Mile creek and try
ing to get home.
There is work except cutting
wood, and that does not pay for grub.
Down at Dawson, it is said that there
will be plenty of work this summer
shoveling dirt and the EmpOria crowd
expects to go there and work until the
boys get stake and then come out
of the country. 1t will take until about
the first of August to do this
Harry says that he has received just
ten letters since he has been there,
eight of which came in one bunch.

DEMOCRACY 900.
John Clark Ridpath Indicates What
the National Platform Will Be.

New York, April 21.-John Clark Rid
path today outlined the Democratic
platform of 1900. He said:
The present political order is based
on the dollar. The true political order
is based on the man. The man and the
dollar are at war, and the one or the
other must go to the wall If the man
prevails over the dollar, then Democ-
racy will continue to exist as a fact and
a principle among men. If the dollar
prevails over the man, then the empire
will prevail over Democracy. The en-
pire chooses the dollar, and Democracy
chooses the man.
1t will be the business of all patriots
to get together next year and to nom
mate a patriot for the presidency 1t
will be their business to announce a
platform of principles of which patriot
ism shall be the alpha and the omega
not the sham patriotism which under
takes a war of conquest with the ILL
concealed purpose of reducing millions
OF barbar1anS to the slave gang and
the coOlie pen, but the real patriotism
of humanity and country and freedom
THE patriotism which will dominate
next years Democratic platform will
demand freedom for all men, white.
brown and black 1t will demand free
dom from political oppression, from
economic oppression, from social op-
preston, and especially from pluto
cratic oppression in all it's forms''

When the place under the United
States express office on Kansas avenue
between Fifth and Sixth streets was
raided Tuesday night, a barrel of
whisky and several bottles and jugs of
wine and gin were taken from the area
way in front under the sidewalk
Yesterday Townsend's lawyer de
manded that the liquors be returned as
the warrent did not include the area
way of the building Chief Ramsey
consulted with City Attorney Bird and
Police Judge Guy and it was decided
that the liquor would have to be re-
turned. as legally the officers had no
right to take anything that was not in
the room specified by the warrant
Last night an express wagon backed
up to the rear of the jail building, the
barrel of whisky and the bottles and
jugs were loaded in and the stuff was
hauled away but enough beer and
whisky was found in the main room to
prove that liquor was being sold and
the officers are certain of making out
their case.
