DEMOCRATS HOLD RALLY.
Have a Good Meeting at Silver
Lake.

The Democrats held rally Saturday
night at Silver Lake which had SUE
prisingly large attendance.
J. J. Schenck, the Democratic candl-
date for county attorney, delivered the
principal address. He discussed the OPP
posing candidates for county attorney
and said that the Republican candidate
was running on the issue that he WOULD
not enforce the law, while the independ-
ent candidate had promised to enforce
the law. but it had been demonstrated
that he could not do so.
E. S. Hotchkin. a bright young man
who is the Democratic candidate for
clerk of the district court, prefaced his
remarks by calling attention to the fact
neither tobacco nor liquor, and is a
member of the First Presbyterian
church. Continuing he said:
Il believe in the to do right idea in
politics and political actions I never
asked for office before, did not seek this
nomination. 1t came unsolicited How
ever 1 believe in absolute honesty in
politics, as well as all other affairs. and
in honesty not merely because it is the
best policy, but because it is right.
L believe that the man and not the
party should be the determinate factor
in the mind of every voter in every city
and county election. / believe that coun-
ty and judicial elections should be held
separate from state and national cleo
lions, so that political and partisan
prejudices may have less weight with
voters, and the good of the community
more.
Il don't think that Kansas has too
much politics in the true sense of the
term, but has has had at least too
much partisanshp. Think that signs are
becoming more hopeful along this line,
however. 1 believe that honesty, efficiency
and absolute loyalty of conviction to prin-
ciples should be necessary requisites 10
officeholdlng- 1 don't believe that prohi-
bition is an issue in this campaign, but do
believe that every law should be enforced
without fear or favor. I believe in the
absolute sacredness of the oath of office.
and believe in the strict enforcement of
the prohibitory law

whales in a single season. Still the
lucky men were not satisfied, and one
of them complained: Il don't know but
I'd have been better off to have cap
tured half a dozen, for the catch is so
blamed big that the price of bone Will
drop to nothing. and a whale that is or
dinarily worth $4,000 won't pay enough
to fit out the slop chest. One thing is
certain. and that is. with so many
steamers out. the sailing vessels might
as well tie up to the wharfs and save
the money it costs to fit out
One of the steamers in 1893 took TWEEN
ty-six whales in twenty days, and an
other took four the day operations
commenced in the month of July. The
most Disguised captain of the feet was
the master of a steamer that took only
one whale. and that a 'stinker." as the

however. did not ruin the market ut
terly, for at last accounts whalebone
was quoted ct $3.50 per pound and like

ey, after all. are those who can buy the
bone at bottom prices and hang on for
a rise in values. There is such a COM

so much as it did before petroleum was
discovered and various substitutes for
lubricating purposes were invented.
Nature seldom deprives the world of
one supply without providing another,
or at least a substitute, and it was so
with the substitution of petroleum for
whale oil. The bone is not so easy to
replace, although there are several sub
stitutes Just as good which do not
always fill the bill. however. So the
whaIers go forth to do business on the

Times have changed since the com
