City Kansas to the Democratic side viii all be lost sight
Of to great degree in the remarkable result Topeka
where immense normal Republican majority has not
only been cut to pieces but wiped out
What happened in Topeka was this: For years
part its political forces has been making pretext Of
enforcing the ProhBtory law that partly keeping
places where liquor is sold on second floors turning
business to the drug stores and eliminating revenues with
occasional reassung chronicles the rest of the state
that Topeka enforced Nations visit to that
city revealed to the world Topeka nearly one
hundred joints more than any other city Kansas The
newspapers of Topeka have been always earnestly for
the enforcement of the law Chief of police followed chief
Of police in effort find who would enforce the
law. Finally man from outside was brought in
exemplary gentleman who meant business after
several months his regime Mrs Nations visit
vead the presence Of the large number of joints The
chief Of police had failed AS usual in such cases he
had some one to blame
Given its impetus by Mrs. Nations crusade the Repub
can primaries were between Colonel Hughes. who prom
sed to enforce the law vigorously and Mr. Warner who
favored accommodating regulation the liquor business
Colonel Hughes was nominated. The Democrats nomi-
mated Mr. Parker an esteemed citizen who believes in
regulation rather than attempted suppression The
paign became wet or dry. Parker won
Apparently large faction Of the Warner Republicans
Supported Parker
It is almost fncimprehensble to the average Kansan
TO believe that Topeka has gone Democratic has been
one Of the great Republican cities of the nation
Political results are commonly credited with teaching
lessons Sometimes this is true; sometimes not But if
the result Topeka has its this: that the
Republican who after watching years Of futile trial comes
to the conclusion last that prohibition the larger
cities does not prohibit and that accommodating regua
ton is better than remembering show suppression
its lessons that such RepuDcan not safely be de

primary campaign smoothed over by omission in the
campaign proper with party success. Campaign vigor
which depends abuse is not effective political
force which that because man dsagrees with

majority and finds itself election morning defeated with
highly soldded but ineffective minority.

In the Nineteenth Century Asiatc cholera claimed the
lives Of millions Of Europeans and several times in the
first fifty appalling percentage Of Americans was
added to the list Of victims In the of nearly every
epidemic it practicable to trace its source to the east
and there has been little doubt many years that the
scourge had been brought from Mecca by returning pill

Citations Of Europe urged Their respective governments
that the civilized powers should unite to effect the dsnfec-
ton of the misunderstanding wells of the east Owing
however to the Mohammedan opposition to any interior

It is now reported that the duty which European
government could be induced undertake will be assumed

that the action Tunis doctors the result Of appeals
from the medical Of Europe. Now that the question
Of preventing epdemics has brought this way
is reasonable think that united appeal from civilized
nations would accomplish the complete distinction of the
birthplace of Asiatic cholera.

SHOT DEAD BY A CORPSE.
London News.

London News
A Boer commando retook those lines
where those who died for us were lying,
and as they marched among our dead
they saw sergeant lying at full length,
shot through the brain, yet even in
death the man looked like some lighting
machine suddenly gone out of order.
His rife was pressed against his shout
der, his left hand grasped the barrel on
the under side, the forefngers of the
right hand pressed the trigger lightly,
the barrel rested upon a rock and his
death-dulled eye still glared along the
sights, for dissolution had come to him
just as he bent his head to fire at those
who shot him, and now his hands had
stiffened in the unbendable stiffness of
eternal sleep. A Boer soldier saw the
sergeant as he lay, and with rude hands
grasped the rifle by the barrel and tried
to jerk it from the dead mans grip, but
as he pulled he brought the rife in line
with his own breast and the unyieIding
finger on the trigger did the rest, the
rifle spoke from the dead mans hand
and the bullet, passing through the
Beers heart, laid him beside the Briton.
Sounds like journalistic lie, does it
not? Read it in a novel and you would
laugh, would you not? But it is the
eternal truth, all the same, for the conn
rade of the Boer who died that way,
killed by the dead man, told me the tale
himself, and he was one of those who
planted the dead Dutchman on the slope
of Spion Kop.

HE GOT THE PLACE.


DR.. McTavish of Edinburg, was some
thing of ventriloquist, and it befell that
he wanted a lad to assist him in the
surgery who must necessarily be of
strong nerves. He received several appli-
cations, and when telling a lad what the
duties We're, in order to test his nerves,
he would say, while pointing to q grin
ming skeleton, standing upright in cor
ner, Part of your work will be to feed
the skeleton there, and while you are
here you may as well try to do So n
few lads would consent to trial, and
received a basin of hot Cruel and spoon.
While they were pouring the hot mass
into the skull the doctor would throw
his voice so as to make it appear to
proceed from the jaws of the bony custo-
mer, and gurgle out: "Gr-r-gr-h-ghI
That's hot!" This was too much, and,
without exception, the lads dropped the
basin and bolted. The doctor began to
despair of ever getting a suitable help
mate, until a small boy came and was
given the basin and spoon. After the
first spoonful the skeleton appeared to
say, ''Gr-r-r-uh-r-hr That's hoti'
Shoveling the scalding cruel as fast as
ever, the boy raped the skull and i'm
patiently retorted: ''Well, jis' blow ont.
we aud bonyi'' The doctor sat down on
his chair and fairly roared, but when
the laugh was over he engaged the lad
on the spot.
