MAKE HASTE!


Great crowds of Suburbanites already
have visited the New Exposition at Pitts
burg, and have returned to their homes sat
urated with enthusiasm for the big shows

this year. are of such high order that to do
aught else but enthuse over them were quite
out of the question.
In first instance the music presented to
date has completely swept Exposition visit
ors OFF their feet, for nothing SO interesting,
elaborate and grand was dreamed of at the
insignificant admission fee of Is cents. 1t
surely is like giving away gold dollars to
offer such music at such nominal prices.
The musical feature for the closing two
weeks of the Exposition is the great New
York orchestra of Walter Damrosch, the
ever po ,uI,F Young conductor who all sum-
mer has acr.l gathering novelties to place on
his Pltt>burg programs While Mr.. Dam

The exhibits have been completely changed
the past week. and the New Exposition pre-

day than ever before.
The attractions are enjoying unusual pat

FORECLOSURE ERA PAST.
Trafhc I'm Western Farm Mortgages
No LonEer an Active Industry.
Minneapolis Times.

AAS1PpAAS AAACG
A few years ago traf1c in farm mortgages
was a thriving industry throughout the
west and. in fact, in every agricultural
section OF the union. The agent who loaned
other peoples money on farm land security
and the lawyer who oficiated at the obse-
quies-that is TO say, the foreclosures
thrived and fattened.
Kansas was the typical farm mortgage
state. The epidemic first made it's appear
anee In that community, ragged there a
little more nercely than It did elsewhere,
and the farmers were longer in recovering
from its effects. Good crops and good prices
have worked wonders, however, and now
business is dull for lawyers who make
mortgage foreclosures a speciality. In one
county in the central part Of the state-an
average county with a population Of about
q, 0O0-there were 1856 mortgages foreelosed
In 1892. In 1898 there were 96; in 1884. 81;
in 1895, ~; in 1896. 40; in 1897. 81; in 1898,
30; in 1899, 16; in 1900, "a; in 1901, 10, and
thus far in 1902 only two, So uns the
record all through the state.
There is an immense amount OF money
loaned on lands in Kansas. but It is offered
on long time at low interest rates. New
corners and the younger generation Of the
native-born are borrowers. but their mort
cages are released by payment and moi
through the courts.
The mortgage history Of Kansas II
greatly similar to that Of pearly every otheI
western state. except that the Sunliowel
state was a little more heavily burdeneC
than any OF the others save. possibly, Ne
braska. In very many cases the value o.
the land was less than the money loaned OF
It. and the poor farmer was not the
sufferer. but the man who surrendered hi
good money for a mortgage note. Blu
hat is knmAterial now. The central fac
is that Kansas and sister states Of thu
west have passed the farm mortgage fore
closure stage and the farmers Of the Mis-
sissippi basin are the most prosperous bust
ness men In the land.

A SOUTHERN OPlNIoN.

Mr.. Hoke Smith. who was secretary
Of the interior in the Cleveland admin
istration and who supported Bryanism
in 1900, is no longer a follower Of the
man who twice led the democratic party
to disastrous defeat. In a recent inter-
view he said that in 1896 the Chicago
platform barely represented a majority
Of the democratic voters Of the south.
I'm 1900 it represented decidedly a mi
nority, but 1t was deemed best TO let
Bryan have his denomination without
opposition and a platform to suit him.

His utter failure" he added. after
getting both. to accomplish anything
was the most effectual way to relieve
the democratic party from his influence.
The democrats of the east may con
hdently rely upon cordial cooperation
in 1904 from the democrats Of the
south. In u own state convention
we adopted a platform emitting all ref
erence to the Kansas City platform oil

triumph for conservatism. a distinct
abandonment Of the platform and can

strong language the scandalous methods
resorted to by Agent Mathewson and the
Hutchens gang in their manipulation of
the reservation affairs for personal grin.
Mr.. Rosewater's denunciation or warning
to the Interior department, as It might be
called, is timely, for It has come to light
that the gang has been working secretly
for several weeks to get contracts with the
heirs to landed estates that are soon TO be
sold, and IL IL is the intention Of the In
terlor department that the land should be
sold to actual settlers and that the Indians
be protected from a well organized gang Of
boodlers the department cannot act too
quickly.
Columbus Telegram; A few years ago,
when the legislature was attempting to re-
duce freight rates, the railroad attorneys
produced evidence to show that the cost OF
reproducing the present railway systems in
this state would run close to 500, 900 per
mile. Last week, while resisting a move
ment for equitable taxation, the railroad
people offered sworn evidence to show that
the entire Union Pacific system In Nebraska
could be duplicated for only $50. 900 per mile,
including all rolling stock, depots, side
tracks and bridges. Next winter the legis-
lature will attempt to reduce freight rates,
and Il will be we'll for the legislators to
remember this testimony regarding the real
value Of the railroads. It cannot be said
to be strictly fair for the roads to milk
the public for freight charges on a valua-
tion Of $1,000 per mile, while insisting
that for taxation purposes the same roads
are worth only $50, 10000. Fact OF the mat
ter is, freight rates in Nebraska are in
some instances more than 100 per cent too
high. A general reduction OF at least 20
per cent would be fair toward the roads
and the public. Passenger rates at 2 cents
a mile would be a fair rate. The roads
could make more money at 2
cents than at 3 II they would
call in all their political passes and
make everybody pay the 2-cent rate. Pend
ing the assembling of the legislature, let
everybody remember the sworn testimony
regarding the actual value of Nebraska
railroads. 1t will come handy some day.

PARTISAN COLOR BLINDNESS

Fusionists should appeal to the sober
and enlightened judgment Of the people
to support their principles and candidates,
and nothing is to be gained In adopting
the republican methods Of characterizing
the candidates Of the opposition as per-
sonally dishonest and unworthy Of belief
because they do not agree with us. There
are honest men in ali political parties and
the journal that constantly asserts that all
men who fail to agree with the party Of
which 1t is an advocate, are dishonest, can
not exercise a very wide influence among
thoughtful men.-Ex-Senator Aliens Mad
ison Mail.
This is refreshing coming as 1t does
from a source high In the councils of
the fusionists who have constantly gone
to the extreme of personal abuse in
their political campaigning. Every re-
publican candidate for Office and every
n championing republican candidates
in Nebraska is regularly blackwashed
by the principal popocratic organs under
an arraignment that runs the whole
gamut Of the vocabulary. Even now,
although the republican press has been
singularly respectful in referring to the
personal characteristics of the men on
the opposition ticket, the popOcratC
pop guns have already begun to shoot
away at the republican candidates and
indulge In vi~liiication according tc
methods peculiarly popocratic rather
than republican. There are honest mel
in all political parties and there are
dishonest men in all political parties
but no more hidebound, color-blind par
tisan press seeing everything bad ant
nothing good outside of its own party
is to be found anywhere than rlghI

two years hence, in the national conven-
ton Of the party, working earnestly and
determinedly for its Remuneration.
1t is already apparent that the utter
ances of Mr.. Bryan in the east are
strengthening the opposition to him. His
speech at Nantasket demonstrated anew
his ~implacable hostility to those demo
Gratis who did not support him in the
campaigns of 1896 and 1900 and his
conceited idea that he alone represents
the true principles Of democracy. In
view Of the a~ntagonism to Organism al
ready developed in the democratic party
1t seems an entirely safe prediction
that the peerless leader" will not be
an important factor in the democratic
national convention Of 1904. In that
case will he support the candidates of
