PAUL CARPENTER,
son OF FAMOUS SENATOR,
COMES OUT FOR BRYAN.

Paul Carpenter was Republican
until this year and now he appears TO
have become Democrat outright. This,
with the fact that he is a son of Wlscon-
sins celebrated United States senator,
Matt H. Carpenter, gave great interest
to his first appearance on the stump this
year His subject was Imperialism and
he spoke before the jefferson clnb, Mil
waukee, on Monday. 1t was one of the
best political discourses Of the campaign
in Milwaukee 1t was cool, deliberate,
logical, clear and concise account OF the
position of the opponents of the present
administration policy I'm regard to the
PHILIPPINES.
Some of his thoughts We're these The
future of the republic and the future OF
the Democratic party are one and Vht
same. If the party goes, the repuone
falls The republic is on trial. For ia
wears it has stood as an example OF free
government. Will it now forsake those
principles on which it was foundedE
Bryan-as a man-has stood IN the
white light of public gaze for four years
and has proved himself a man. His IN.
tellectual growth has been so rapid that
it suggests that it was NDt growth, tEzat
he was always possessed of remarkable
mind, but that we did not know it be-
fore He has made no bad breaks IN
four years of constant Watching. he Is
fit man to lead this nation.
McKiniey's words are not an index
but rather a disguise OF ais character.
He talks prosperity and is bringing adj
versity, he talks economy and is Woe
fully extravagant, he talks peace ana
makes war, he talks liberty and is crush
ing out liberty. There has been
change, moreover, in the spirit of the ma
ton in the past two years. Verify II Is

BILE librarian, with an assistant. Mr..
Nash says that Miss Won Brieseu has
amply fulfilled the requirements of the
board, but she needs help, as the work is
expanding The library is constantly
being enlarged by new books, and they
have to I've classified and placed on the
shelves, which adds considerably to her
labors.
Another recommendation Of import.

SMALLPOX SCARE OVER.
Little Danger Now Anticipated From
the Disease.

The smallpox scare is about over
in town. Abilene escaped without a
case and junction City reports its
cases cured without any deaths. A
Kansas City expert says the weather
has been favorable to stop the disease.
"Cold weather spreads smallpox,
and heat is what kills it. One is
much safer from smallpox if he sits
close to the fire in a closed car than
on an open car. | see whole carloads
Of people riding outside and the
closed coaches empty. They ought
to be in the closed coaches.
"The warm weather is al! that has
saved Kansas City from a smallpox
epidemic this winter. Where it has
broken out the people have been Of
the class that lacks warm clothes or
warm houses, probably both. Is is
really more vqrio)oid than smallpox,
but very severe cold weather just
now would produce serious results.
1t is. one Of the odd things about
smallpox that heat is its enemy. We
even have to keep vaccine points in
the ice chest to keep the virus alive >

CLOSED FOR INVOICE"
Abilene Dispsn'ariss Marking Down
Goods for Bargain Counters.

This was day Of Sahara drouth in
the county seat. The front doors
and likewise the back doors OF the
several tea dispensaries which have
been more or less in use since the
beginning Of the nineteenth century
were shut. Hanging thereon were
big yellow signs reading "Closed for
Invoice" OF course it is necessary
for all well regulated business houses
to take invoice occasionally and
doubtless the proprietors of this
branch Of industry are preparing for
bargain counter sales. When they
reopen-if they ever do-there will
doubtless be signs like this: chop

How Our Schools Flourish.

Report Of city schools for month
ending January 26, 1900: Enroll
ment 909, attendance in half days
SO, 1863, tardies 8, truancies 10; per
cent. of attendance. 91.2.
Nineteen of the twenty-six classes
had over so per cent. Of attendance
and no tardies. Five of the other
seven fell below 80 per cent. because
OF sickness or unnecessary absence.
The truancies were from the same
source as unnecessary absences and
were occasioned by the representatives.
of six families. The cause of the tru-
ancies is traceable to the influence Of
three boys not members of school and
over whom there seems to be no dl-
recting influence.
