Kansas.

Now while you are talking Of Kansas,
Just call it '.bug-a-boo;"
A terror as seen from distance,
A friend on a nearer view.
A friend to the renter farmer,
Who's wanting room to spread;
But it surely makes the tenderfoot
Hump for his daily bread
Each drouth he gets discouraged,
Each spring his spirits rise;
For Kansas hope and sunshine.
Will dazzle the poor mans eyes.
"Hot winds?' Oh yes, they're blowing,
And the dampness isn't much;
And once and awhile cyclone,
Puts Heaven and earth in touch.
Grasshoppers? Yes they're plenty,
Likewise the snakes land bugs,l
The varieties almost endless
There's one kind found in jugs.
The chickens feast on ''hoppers,"
They're meat for the Kansas hen,
And she's an important factor''
On the farms of Kansas men.
The potatoes make sad failures,
Also the ''garden sass"
The only thing that's certain,
Is the sturdy buffalo grass.
And sometimes that gets sunburned,
And bleaches out mighty gray,
But they're coming back to Kansas.
And coming back to stay.

NCSipl OOily hCfCl was ohN
meyer will be Democratic doc
trine. The greatest apostles of
reciprocity were James G. Blaine
and President Mckinley and
certainly no one would accuse
either with being Democrats.
The fundamental doctrine of the
Democratic party Is free trade
pure and simple and its leaders
have never advocated anything
else in the way of tariff reform.
Reciprocity is as much a Repub-
lican doctrine as sound money
and expansion. 1t has been
made so by the declaration of the
party conventions, state, nation
al and county, and will remain so
until the party has crystalized
the doctrine into Legislative en-
actment and treaties.-Hutchin-
son News.
The writer of the above is
either trying to deceive the peo-
pie or he is not up on the history
of his party. Reciprocity, it is
true originated with James G.
Blaine, but it is a reduction in
tariff and according to treaties
made by Mr.. Blaine, with for
eign countries, it was equivalent
to free trade, for it was an ex-
change of products. of the re-
spective countries. AS far as it
went it was Democratic doctrine.
AS far as sound money, or gold
standard is concerned, the Re-
publican party never advocated
it until 1896. Then they stole it
from Grover Cleveland, who nev-
err did represent Thomas Jeffer-
son Democracy. The Repub-
lican party always was the silver
party, and in fact the only par
ty that ever did enact laws in ia
vor of the white metal. Go with
US if you please, to a large major
ity of the platforms adopted by
the different states and counties
prior to the Republican National
convention of 1896, and you will
find that large per cent of them
declared for the free and unlimit-
ed coinage of silver. Please ex-
anime the platform adopted at
Wichita in the spring of 1896,
when Mr.. Long, the gentleman
now championed by the Hutch
inson News for U. S. Senator,
was nominated for Congressman
of the 9TH district of Kansas. 1t
specifically declared for the free
and unlimited coinage of silver.
Chas. Curtis, another candidate
for Senator, was elected con-
gresham IN 1896, on a free Sill
yer platform. AS far as the doc
trine of expansion is concerned,
it was born with the Democratic
party half century before the
Republican party came into ex-
istence. All the large expanses
of territory prior to the present
time, except the purchase OF
Alaska, were added under Dem
ocratic administrations. We be-
lieve in always giving credit
where credit belongs. We dc
not think a writer should mis-.
represent the position taken by
his party in the past.
