Congressman Reeder and Charles
Curtis are the onlv two congressman
from Kansas who have been given
committee rooms of.their own. Both
being on Important committees, IS
one reason why they were granted
this privilege. The people are begin
ming to see that they made no mis-
take in returning Mr.. Reeder to con-
gress. He is a tirelesS worker, and is
beginning to get in a position to do
some good for his people. 1t is we'll
known that it takes a member of con-
gress a couple of terms TO get in with
the ways of congress. A new member
can do little more than to get ac-
quainted the first term. The state
that keeps their congressional delega-
tion at the national capital for years
without change. are the ones that get
what they want in the way of legisla-
ton and all appointments. Maine and
Iowa are examples of this. The
Maine and Iowa delegations remain
practically the same year after year,
and those two states have almost I'M
limited power through their repre-
sentation in congresS.-Smith County

There is d close bond of sympathy
between the Old subscriber and the
the editor, more Jnan dollars and
cents can establish There is Il feel
ing that the ''old subscriber is an
IGNORED member of the editors liter
AIRY family. He it is that takes the
home paper year after year, through
evil as well as through good report,
and pays his subscription regularly
just the same as he would any other
honest debt. AS a general thing the
old subscriber is patient and slow to
wrath. He will overlook many little
Sights from the editor. If one of his
calves gets its leg broke and the fact
fails to be mentioned in the next is
sue, he doesn't seem to feel the slight
in the least, or if d half dozen of his
hens die with cholera morbus and the
editor doesn't set out ii two dollar adj
vertiSement, in order To make room
to herald the news to a waiting world,
he just worries along as though he
hadn't been miStreated at all. He is
jolly when he comes into the office,
ard drops an item of news for the pa
per before taking his departure. God
bless the old Dodge City

After the recess Mr.. Ravner discussed

Mr. Royner said he stood upon the re:;
timonv Of Captain Cook. who. all things
taken together. had the best opportunity
to Siya all the informa ton about the
loop. What might have happened had
the Brooklyn turned to port was purely
matter of conjecture. The turn in the
other direction was completely success
full. 1t was intimated that the turn to
the southwark had been TO get away from
the enemy vet it was an indisuutahsa
fact that the turn had brought the Brook
