The executive council convenes to-
day to select the Board of Railroad
Commissioners. There are about forty
candidates, three of which carry the
lucky rabbits foot. Two Will be re.
publIcans and one will be a Barney
Sheridan democrat who votes and talks
for the republican ticket. It. is a safe
bet that the council has its mind made
up but for a pretense they may not
make their announcement for a few
days. The friends of w. G. Millar still
insist that he IS on the ground floor and
will surely be one of the fortunate
three. The position pays $4,000 with
lots of 1t on the side.

REPUBLICAN paper way up in Min
nesota accounts for the joint smashing
and negro burning in Kansas from the
fact that it is a Populist state and the
officers fail to enforce the laws. The
editor of that paper Is certainly a sap
head. Somebody ought to inform him
that Kansas has had republican ad.
ministratlon for nearly three years and
now has control of the legislature and
the courts also.

THE Populist state committee would
like to hear from the rank and file of
the party membership on the question
OF future policy. Since the passage of
the new law prohibiting the appearance
OF the same name on more than one
ticket, there has been considerable dis
cussion relative to the future of PGpu-
lists and democrats. The Topeka Advo-
cate has rendered the use of its columns
10 those who will express their views,
aud Secretary j. c. Curran will answer
all inquiries directed to him at Topeka.
Begin public discussion now 80 that
there may be thorough organization
ia the next campaign. Those who fav-
or abandoning the organization and go
ing into the democratic party should
say SO frankly. Those who favor the
organization OF Populists and demo-
Gratis into fusion party should so ex-
press themselves, and those who desire
straight tickets should let the fact be
known. Any suggestions that any
Populist or democrat desires to make
will also be given consideration. Ad-
dress letters for publication to the Adj
vOcate, Topeka, Kansas. Those which
need an answer should be addressed to
J. G. Curran, Topeka. This is a criti-
cal moment for the fusionists. Har-
mony insures victory in 1902 Discord
makes defeat certain. Another republic
can victory like that of last year will
fasten corruption and public extravas
gance 50 firmly on the people that il
viii require years of toll and sacrifice
to overcome. Indeed it will amount TO
conHscation.

In New York City telephone service
costs $3.50 per year; Boston from S75 to
$l56; Philadelphia from 500 to $3.50.
1t cost $40 for one in New York City
to talk with Chicago. This is the tri-
butte people pay for the privileges of
pra.ing indiyidualism. In the follow
ing countries the governments own the
telephones and here are the prices:
Germany $50. England $50 20. New Zea-
land sd. and in Sweden $40. In
these countries people are not afraid
OF socialism and do not have to pay q
tribute for being afraid. Winfield

The Kiowa News is roasting the pro
hibs to brown and as usual IN such
fights, goes out of its way to say
some very harsh things about some
firstclass citizens. The average west
erD Kansas town has plenty of troubles
of its own without arraying citizen
against citizen and taxpayer against
taxayer. There is some satisfaction
that for the first time in hlstorJ it is
not so IN Medicine Lodge.
