a New Geography.

THE REPUBLIC is in receipt of the
American Book cOmpany's new INA
tural Advanced Geography" by Red
way and Hinman. 1t is an elaborate
and artistic production and no one can
question its merits and excellence. 1t
is doubtful whether any other geo
grsphy equals, much less exceeds it, in
excellence.
The American Book company has
bought out the Harpers, and, as every
one knows, is a trust. Mr.. Hanna says
"a trust is a good thing" however, peO-
pie may differ on that subject, the
geography is a good thing. Now, if
this great combine will not employ a
paid lobby in state legislatures, and
will come in and bid on equal terms
with other publishers, under the uni
form text book law of the state Of
Kansas, no objection could be made to
the adoption Of their geography. They
can produce their works as cheap, and
even cheaper, than smaller firms, and
should stand their chances with other
corporations in fair and honorable
competition.

GOEBELrs BLOOD on REPUBLICAE



William GOebeI has succumbed to the
sssassin's bullet and his blood is on the
hands Of the republicans Of Kentucky
When GOebeI brought contest for the
gOvernship before the state legislature
open threats were made by republicans
that be would never occupy the execuS
tive chair even if Taylor was unseated,
and how near these threats came to be-
ing carried into effect is seen by the
fact that GOebel was sworn in as gov
ernor only after being at deaths door.
In all candOr 1t must be allowed that
the Kentucky democrats have kept
we'll within the law in all matters dur
ing the gOvernOrship dispute. When
the election board issued certificates to
the republican candidates the GOebel-
ties offered no violence against them
taking their seats, but took an appeal
Of contest before the state legislature,
being the only power authorized to go
behind the returns, which declared
Goebel elected. The Taylor forces,
evidently aware Of this action, resort
to assassination to further their ends
and State Senator Goebel is shot down
while approaching the state house to
perform his duties as such.
TaylOr's further attitude in assembI-
ing the military, in sdjourning the leg
islsture to London, a small mountain
town and unfit for such a purpose, and
ignoring the judiciary aud refusing to
permit the assembly to meet at Frank
fort By military Intervention, is revo-
lutiOnary.
Mr.. GOebel has been a man Of good
morals and character, a friend Of the
people aud q thorn in the side Of cor
pOrations; as a lawyer having won more
suits and as q statesman enacted more
laws against corporations than any man
in Kentucky, aud it is but natural that
q great corporation, the Louisville and
Nashville railroad, should be at the
bottom Of the present trouble.
Only for the fOrbearance OF the
democrats the flames Of civil war
would have been kindled throughout
Kentucky, and it is up to the rspubli-
cans to prevent further trouble and let
the courts settle the controversy.

Cost Of a senatorship-

Washington.-Arthur McEwen is re-

little street children we're standing at

struck with tue beauty and richness
about them. One of the children, a

courage and spoke to a man standing
in the corridors:
mister" she said, "whst does it cost
to get in there?"
On the instant a gentleman emerged
from the senate chamber.
"Ask him" said the journalist.
The gentleman was Senator Clark, Of
Montana.

It Is certainly not just the proper
thing to say, as some Of GOOdland's
citizens have been reported to have
said about the assassination Of GOebel:
Served him right, he ought TO have
been killedF' Substantially the same
thing was said about the assassination
Of Abraham Lincoln, but who would
say it now? These things show how
demOralizinR intense paFtisanship may
become-even to the justifying Of cold
bIooded murder.
