Thousands of Eastern Farmers GOinE
West.
D. w. Blaine, of Pratt, writes to the
Capital that the movement to secure
special rate for 10000 harvest hands to
take care of the great wheat crop is
booming. Mf. Blaine and others will
go before the Western Passenger Asso-
citation to ask fol, special rate Of ]
cent per mile from the Missouri river.
The estimate Of 10000 hands is made
from a canvas Of farmers by school dis
Ericts. The crop in the wheat belt will
be 25 per cent heavier than that OF last
year. Mr.. Blaine says
set is necessary for those who need
extra help to make an early estimate OF
the probable number of men needed;
also join in a petition asking that the
railroads grant a harvest hand rate.
Last year we were granted a rate OF
cent per mile from Missouri river points
to the wheat belt in Kansas, but this
season. beginning as early as we are
now doing, we hope to get the railroads
to grant as a rate of cent per mile
covering the territory controlled by the
WesternI Passenger Association. am
receiving numerous letters from even
as far east as Pennsylvania from young
farmers who would like to visit Kansas
and help us in our harvest in order tc

His Nervousness On the Night His First
Play Was Presented.

Campbell was originally a reporter
on a Pittsburg paper, and it was while
he was SO employed that he had the
manuscript of 'The White Slave" ac-
cepted for production at local theater
He had to defray some Of the expenses
of the production, and having no means
of his own, had succeeded in borrowing
couple of hundred dollars from
friends for the purpose.
The night Of the first performance
his naturally nervous and exciteable
nature was so wrought up by anxiety
that he was afraid to go to tibet heater
and watch the performance. Meeting q
friend on the street he took him into
an adjacent hotel, and telling him Of
his fears, besought the friends com
pany. After taking three or foul
drinks Of brandy with his friend Camp.

to the theater. The first act was al.
most ended as the two men entered
and at its conclusion the applause was
so tremendous that all doubt as to the
plays success was dissipated.

hotel with bottle of champagne be.

emptied his glass he said:

The Return to the Tunic.

Advices from Paris say that the re-
turn of tunics appears a settled ques-
ton, less, however, for general street
wear than in the case of more dressy
toilettes. This is but natural, as a
longer skirt shows them to better adj
vantage. There is a new and pretty
manner OF disposing them which meets
with much favor.
The long underskirt may be of silk
or the same textile-it matters little
but the hem of the tunic is adorned by
a very deep design cut in the material
itself and forming part of it If of a
floral description it is in the shape OF
large and long perpendicular sprays
around which all the rest of the mater
ia1 is cut away, allowing them to hang
| in detached motives.
These are fixed on the underskirt-
over which they are cut to the length
/ of ten or twelve inehes-either by {
buttonhoie stitch surrounding them, o.
metallic thread.
The effect is extremely good anG
novel. If another description Of design
is adopted it in arranged SO as to form
as irregular and in5e-te1 . border a

The appointment OF Mr.. Foulke as
Commissioner, in addition TO Presi-
dent Roosevelt's well known ideas on
the subject is regarded as making this
cirtain. The first branch of the SER
vice which will probably be placed
under the classified rules, is the rural
free delivery, which has increased so
largely within the last few years and
which is expected to be still further
increased. The rules will probably
extend TO all branches of this, from
clerks to carriers, inspectors and SUI
perintendents. Next will come the
consular service, which will become a
permanent one, instead of being the
prey OF politicians after each election.
1t is also probable that the Census
Bureau will be placed under civil SER
vice rules, although this, if done, will
be the work of Congress and not that
of the President. Its inclusion would
render all the 5000 clerks now en-
ployed there eligible to transfer to
other branches of the government
service. As some 1000 of these will
soon be no longer needed at the Cen.
sus, their transfer would fill all the
needs of other departments for a year
or two to come, and destroy all
chances OF appointment from the eli.
gible lists OF the Commission.

The Non.Partisan Movement.
DEM.

A non.partisan mass convention
was held in the Superior Court room
in the McKenny building, Wednes-
day night, at which a municipal
ticket was nominated and a platform
adopted. The former is as follows
Mayor, Allen Weir; Clerk, C. NJ.
Bolton; Attorney, A. H. Mackinnon /;
Treasurer, A. I. Rabeck Health OF.
ficer, DIR. Newcomb: Councilman-at-
Large, A. ID. Sheldon; Councilmen-
First ward, j. r. Pattison; Third
ward, w. H. Shepard; Fourth ward,
0. George; Fifth ward, Ambrose
Barnard.
First, We believe it to be for the best
interests of the city that its municipal
affairs be managed entirely free from
partisan politics, to the end that politi-
cal trading and jobbery be eliminated.
Second, We are in favor of the en-
forcement of all laws OF the State and
ordinances, and particularly those that
made for the good order, morality and
decency of the community. We favor
such conduct of city affairs as will at
tract to us the better class of people
seeking homes in the West.
Third, We pledge the candidates of
this Convention if elected, to a clean,
economical and business.like administra-
ton not making war upon any legitimate
business or occupation, but insisting
that the laws of the land must and shall
be obeyed.
Fourth, While We favor public enter.
prise, and those necessary expenses re-
quired for street and other city improve
ments, having in view the present and
prospective necessities of a growing
municipality. yet we will insist upon the
most rigid economy consistent with eff
ficient service.
Fifth, Resolved that we are opposed
to the issuing of any more licenses, re.
newal or otherwise, to saloons on Fourth
street, or on any street south OF Fourth
street, and we further pledge ourselves
to require the revoking of the license OF
any saloon which violates the laws OF
the State or ordinances OF the city.
Sixth, We favor increased and earn
est efforts to secure reduction in inter-
est charges on our outstanding munich
pal obligations, to the end that the bur-
dens of taxation may be relieved as far
as possible.

Cushman's FalsehoodS.

That freak from this State 10 the
lower branch of Congress is reported
to have lately delivered himself of the
following egotistical diatribe:
"After the Democratic party began to
| agitate free trade the country went to
hell a-glimmering. Then that same old
party caught the free silver fever and
went to the devil on that. The same
thing happened to them when they
broke out with imperialism and the Re
publican party will get taste of trouble
if it goes mad on reciprocity. If there's
any subsidy legislation l want to see
subsidy based on tonnage, not speed"
Even the man with the sloping
forehead should know that the Demo.
cratic party never advocated free
trade, and he ought to know that
seven million people in line for remon-
citation (not free silver, be it noted,
of silver, is rather large concourse to
ego to the devil" if the phrase is in.
tended to express utter ruin, as the
freak intends it to do. The danger oil
imperialistic tendencies was likewise
emphasized by a larger Democratic
vote than had ever been cast, fol
Bryan, other than himself. As to
reciprocity, Blaine, Mckinley and the
leaders of the party the past decade
have travelled just that far in its ad
vocacy towards the free trade that
Cushman sets up as the straw man oil
the Democratic party.
But then, who woul'l expect fact.

ANOTHER ATTEMPT TO FEATHER
THE NEsT."-The U. 8. letter carriers
OF Minneapolis have begun what they
intend as general movement to in
duce Congress to increase their pay.
1t is the plan to send petitions from
all parts OF the Union to the incoming
Congress demanding that fifth class
be established who shall receive 81 200
per annum, to which carriers of .
lower class may be eligible after serv.
ing in previous grades, short hours for
ample pay, thus removing this priv.
ileged class another step from the man
who earns his income from long hours
OF daily labor. The service is not one
requiring either skill or much applica-
ton, being routine duty for a few
hours "off and on" with . prospect
of steady duty the year round, while
the laborer operating on his own re-
sources, must necessarily provide for
interregnums between jobs which very
materially reduce the wage-rate below
the income of the stated salary.
Then government employees, aside
from their eight hours OF labor, are
entirely released from duty at stat
ed times for vacation besides on
the general holidays. The movement
in Minneapolis is only part of the
concerted move by the National Asso.
citation of Letter Carriers, established
to promote good thing. The estab-
lishment of preferred or privileged
classes which separate the masses from
the few or promotes wide divergeuces

ton of labor OF equal exaction OF
mind or muscle, are un-American, and

which rends the homogenety essential

PART SECOND OF THE GOLD sErTLER"-
TEN YEARS LATER.
Some say that this county's improving,
And boast Of it's commerce and trade
But measured by social enjoyment
l find it has sadly decayed.
In the pioneer days on the Sound,
When people had little to wear,
And subsisted on clans the year round,
We'd hearty good fellowship here.
The thoughtful, industrious old settler,
Was so fond of obliging friend,
That if any one wanted his tools,
He'd always quit working to lend.
At our gath'rings for pastoral pleasure,
Dance, picnic or social knock down,
One man was as good as another;
No kind of distinction was shown.
But now when go to party
The people around me seem froze;
They dare not be social and hearty,
For fear they may spoil their store
clothes.
Not only our friendly relations,
Are dropped for the worship of gold;
But the solid back bone of the country,
Is recklessly bartered and sold.
They're slashing and selling our timber,
Not taking the slightest concern,
For what we shall do in the future,
Without any fuel to burn.
And wasting the natural resources
Our beautiful waters contain.
They're canning our clans and our oys.
tiers,
And shipping them off for mere gain.
And even the climate is changing,
For only some ten years ago,
Strawberries got ripe in December,
Whilst now it brings four feet of snow.

The high price Of beef is attributed
by the New York World, to the boom
in wheat a few months ago, when
farmers took to raising that cereal in.
stead OF cattle. So beef became
scarce and higher. Crop failures this
season reduced the supply and raised
the price OF corn; consequently we
have more TO pay per pound for pork
while lard is on the very wave.crest Of
high prices.
