The Kansas Deficit.

The republicans of Kansas redeem
ed" the state from populism, and
what q botch they have made of it!
Pledged to reduction of taxes and ex-
penses, they have increased both.
Their promise to lop off useless offices
was forgotten, and a lot of new Jobs
WAS created with salaries aggregating
$4,000 year. They said they would
maintain the credit of the state, yet
their state treasurer already has
stamped warrants mot paid for want
of funds on two different occasions,
and it is announced that there will
lie no money for the transaction of
pub ic business from April 1, to JulyI,
next year.
The republican politicians in charge
of affairs in Kansas have proved them
selves to be incompetent. Their gross
extravaganza has disguised even their
own people, and it is with sigh of
relief that the rank and file of the
party turn to new candidates for the
offices which are to be vacated by
Stanley and his cabinet
But how to dodge the issue is a
question which agitates the minds of
republicans. They must dodge it,
OF course. That's the republican way.
But how? The records show that the
legislature last winter made the heavi-
est appropriations in the history of
legislation in Kansas 81, $4,000. The
state treasurer has made a statement
that all this will be spent, with bills
aggregating 100000, or more left
unpaid. These facts must be sex
planned" so as to fool the people.
The word deficit will not be used
in the explanation.
Maybe the people will refuse to be
fooled any longer. Maybe they will
rise in their wrath and rebuke the
party which has thus betrayed them,
as they have done several times in
The paSt.-k. G. Times.

The Purpose of Reunions?

The presidential race of 1904 opened
last week, the place being Hutchin-
son and the occasion the Kansas Grand
Army reunion. Colonel Roosevelt got
such welcome as Kansas gives none
but its warmest favorites. Senator
Fairbanks was listened to with re-
spectful attention and his good points
were noted. Incidentally a number
of senatorial boOms were trOtted out.
Altogether it was one of the most
successful reunions of late years.-To-
peka Capital.

The Colorado assessors have in
creased the valuation of the railroads
of that state from 81 million dollars
last year to 126 millions this year.
The other property of the state has
been increased from 10 millions last
year to $50 millions this year. The
railroads are fighting the new assess
ment tiercely. They do not claim
that their property is assessed any
higher than the other property of the
state but they have never been assess
ed so high and they do not propose to
have the old order changed if they
can help it. The valuation of prop
erty other than railways, telegraph,
ETC., has been increased about q times
what it was last year, and the rail
road property about 81 what it was
last year. a great many wealthy tax
dodgers as well as the railroads have
been brought to time and will for the
first time be made to contribute their
share of the burdens of government.
The assessment was made by virtue
of new law passed by the last legiS-
lature. Wonder if anybody could
guess what party is in power out in
that state?

The latest news from the scene Of
the strike is favorable to the strikers.
The very existence of union labor is
at stake, and the various unions are
fast waking up to Relation of this
fact. Notwithstanding the strikers
seem to be gaining friends and adher-
ents each day, the chances are very
small that they will win out, and if
they lose, labor will be entirely at the
mercy of the trusts.

The Citizen says the increase in
state taxes was made necessary to
complete the state capitol and to pay
the war expense. Yes and a portion
of it was also made necessary to pay
the expenses of Senator Buschow for
stealing the seat in the senate that
belongs to Selden G. Hopkins as also
numerous other outrages perpetrated
along the same line.-Atwood Patriot.
