WHY IT WAS AGREED UPON.

Several persons have asked why the
POpulists and democrats agreed on the
name "Independent" for the heading
OF the ticket in Barber county this fall.
The answer to the question is brief.
The last legislature enacted new bal
lot law in which it was made illegal for
more than one party to nomi-
nate the same candidate, and as
neither party desired two candi-
dates and neither party de-
sired to accept the name of the other it
was agreed that the local campaign be
conducted on Independent lines. There
Is growing sentiment for independent
politics among all parties anyway and
this plan IS In favor among progressive
people.
Of course, this in no manner affects
the standing of the respective parties
next year, neither locally, state nor ma
tionally. 1t does not prevent either
party from making nominations next
year.
We notice, however, that "Independ
emit" is very distasteful to a certain
element of republicans, and, of course
we are very sorry they are not satisfied
about it. We believe, though, that it is
aslnear what the people of Barber coun-
ty want, as any plan that might have
been agreed upon.

A NEW GRAFT.

1t has been recently discovered that
Kansas has new public officer who is
termed state inspector of drug stores
The gentleman who holds that honor.
able position is DR.. R. T. Bryant. 1t is
not clear what his duties are but our
guess is that he has to sample the diff.
ferent brands and report the result to
the republican state committee so that
they may have the very best next fall.
1t is not known what his compensation
Is but the legislature will provide.
Kansas is getting so many new officers
that 1t is impossible to keep track of
them. When the next legislature meets
we should all go up to Topeka and have
offices created for us.

DISASTROUS.

The Filipino insurgents almost ami
hilated Company c of the Ninth Infan
try at Samar on Saturday. There were
"a soldiers IN the company and all but
"A were killed. Those not killed were
wounded. The company was attacked
at breakfast by a strong force of rebels.
Ihey secured all the company's sup
plies and all rifles except II. This is
the first misfortune the American
troops have had In the islands for some
time and 1t leads one to believe the war
is not yet at an end. The Filipinos are
stealthy bushwhackers and there is no
telling how long the war will be pro.
Ionged. We do know, however, that
the lives of these American citizens
are worth infinitely more than the en-
tire archipelago.

THE BALLOT LAW.

ed. Besides preventing the printing OF
the same name on more than one ticket
the republicans have provided for cap.
turing two of the three judges on each
election board, and Populist or demo
cratic tickets which are not marked
strictly according to law will be thrown
aside. We publish below some of the
provisions:
Any ballot Is wholly void and no vote
theron can be counted
If a Cross x mark shall be found

square; or,
If any mark shall be found thereon

If cross Y mark shall be found in

Memorial Services.

In pursuance of the Presidents proc.

of Sharon and vicinity met at the Chris

which they held our late beloved Presi-

Mckinley.
The services were conducted by Rev
Atwell, assisted by his noble wife
Both addresses were appropriate and
well received by those present.
AS an expression of the sentiment of
the people here, the following resolu.
lutions were adopted:

hand Of an anarchist assassin, be it

WE hope it will not be necessary for

Their statement in regard to the Har.

say that the Harper county law is al.
most Identical with Barber's. 1t is
not. The Harper law pays only go pei

not add the county pure hasing agent

still under the control of the county

such bill was being talked of until it
became law and many are just learn

fair to say that the bill was
conceived by the publishers
of the Cresset and passed for
their special beaefit. This
they do not deny. Neither
do they deny that the new

much matter as is now being

that the Cresset will yet con.
clude that that is the better

We would like for some
apologist of the last legisla-

also like to know why Judge
Botkin was donated 100000

remembered that Mr.. Botkin

was impeached by the house

bench. He lacked only a few
votes Of being convicted by
the senate. Mr.. Long rep.
resented this district in the
senate at that time: and voted
for Botkin's conviction, which
is equal to saying that he was
guilty and should have been
removed. Yet in 1901 a re.
publican legislature comes in
and pays him back every cent
he spent in that trial and per-
haps more. Will the people
of Kansas ever wake up and
stamp out these stealss

Some of our republican
friends are getting desperate.
We heard one of them say
on the streets last week that
from 40 to 80 other counties
have the same printer law as
Barber county has, and that
under the Barber county law
the commissioners regulate
the prices. These statements
are false. No other county in
the state has such a law as
Barber county has; only four
have a special law of anykind;
only two are called upon
on to elect a printer this fall.
None of them has as high a
rate as Barber county. The
commissioners have no con.
troll over the prices. The law
is plain and there is no excuse
for these misrepresentation.
The fellows who are respon-
sible for this measure have
had their ears to the ground
and they now hope to slide
in by deceiving the people.

Qusry: If the Cresset is
really anxious to follow the
Golden Rule precept, why
does it insist on gobbling up
county printing when anoth-
er paper has a bonafide con-
tract to do the work. After
the publishers have answer.
ed that question, they might
explain why they have pro.
vided in the new law that
the county printer shall take
his seat in January when
heretofore the te1m began in

that they intended to deprive
