MosT republicans have read in
their papers a clipping from the
Paola Spirit, Barney Sheridan S
democratic paper, defending T..
L. Kelley, the crooked county
clerk of Miami county whom the
republicans want elected state
treasurer. Those extracts from
the Spirit were typewriter in
the State Treasurer Office, and
sent out to the newspapers in the
hope of making the public believe
that Kelley is an honest man,
because a democrat paper of his
own town came to his defense.
The editorial by Barney Sheridan
in the next weeks Spirit, in
which he commented on Kelley
matter more fully and explicitly,
saying virtually that his reason
for coming to kelley's defense
was that his-kelley ey's-rotten-
ness and croOkedness was as the
whitest snow compared to the
majority of the Miami republi-
can gang who were fighting him,
was not copied and sent out to
the republican press for publica-
ton. We want every man who
read in a republican paper that
Kelley defense article, to read
the editorial headed 1.-The Demo-
cratic Fight from the Poala
Spirit, published this week.
Governor Stanley lately has
been greatly embarrassed by
having people ask him why he
suppressed the story of the theft
of 81, 200 at the penitentiary,
and why no effort was made to
punish the thief. The Governors S
answer is that the story was
suppressed for the good of the
administration. Recent publi-
cations of the story of stealing
at the penItentiary have. beer
very annoying to the Governor
for he tears they have a tendency
to impair his senatorial boom

nit us to remark that there are {
whole lot of stories of crooked

CAN'T BEAT ORADDoOK.

The following is an editorial
taken from the Western Life. a
republican paper published at
Leavenworth:
ssTherepublicans havenominat-
ed their best man for governor.
Bailey is a strong, clean man and
will make a better race than any
of the other candidates, but no
republican can be elected this
year. The election of Bailey as
governor would mean that Bur-
ton would be aone term Senator;
that Curtis would not be the next
United States Senator and that
Cy Leland would be the National
Committeeman from Kansas and
the political boss of the party.
"This is an off year, SO that
Burton and Curtis cannot be ex-
pected to dig their own political
graves. The democratic candi-
date, Craddock, is Bailey sequal
in every way and as a business
man he is Bailey's superior.
Kansas would not suffer in repu-
tation with Craddock as COVER
nor and for this reason thousands
of republicans will cast their
votes for Craddock as governor
and for the further reason that
if Baily was elected, Cy Leland
would be the next United States
senator from Kansas, and that
is more than the people could
stand.
'sIf the two factions had COM
promised and nominated a man
satisfactory to both sides he
could have won. Bailey, the
nominee, represents the faction
that was driven from power a
year ago, his election would mean
new life to them and death to
other fellows. The election OF
Craddock would be political
death to Leland and new life to
Mulvane, Burton and Curtis.
Human nature is the same as in
other states. Ii the democrats
and populists cast their full vote
for Craddock, and there is every
reason to believe they will do SO,
hewill get more republican votes
than are necessary to put him in
the governors Office

WHEN the law-making power

WHEN the law-making power
of Kansas is again wrested from
the republicans there will be a
law passed strengthening the
laws concerning newspaper libel.
In their extreme partizanship.
and with an eager desire to in
flame the people who elect to
disagree with the republican
policy, the republican papers for
the last week have been almost a
unit in publishing fake interviews
with prominent democrats and
populists, In misrepresenting the
actions of the two conventions
held last week in Topeka, and in
diserediting men with infam-
matory language which they.
never used. Chief among these
libelous sheets are the Hutchinson
news, Topeka Capital and Her
aid, and Kansas City Star-all
in the pay of therepublican cam
paign committee, and all con-
trolled by men who have no re-
gard whatever for common
decency and honor.
In the House of Representatives
last Thursday, the republicans
voted down an amendment to
the philippine bill, offered by the
democrats, prohibiting slavery
or involuntary seryitude in the
islands. They also voted down
an amendment offered by a re-
publican-Congressman Mccall
of Massachusetts-to declare
that the policy of the q. S. was
to grant self-government to the
Fiipinos. Mccall, and Littlefeld
of Maine, were the only two
Abraham Lincoln republicans,
for they voted with the democrats
for those amendments.
If you meet a pilgrim brother
who's a stranger in the land and
he walks up boldly to you and
takes you by the hand-if he
grips yoursfingers gently and in
creasing pressure brings and a
slightly downWard motion every
separate finger wrings; then a
gentle rising movement gives a
strange unwonted twist to the
muscles of the digits and the
tendons OF the wrist, if the pres
sure slowly weakens and he lets
your fingers slip-he's a candi-
date my brother and he's given
you the grip.-Stolen.
Our of a consignment of
twenty-one Egyptian mummies
to museums III this country
about a month ago, nineteen Of
them have been discovered to be
ingenious frauds. Curio co1ec-
tors also declare that 90 per
cent OF the Mexican stone idols
are not genuine. And hundreds
of Mark Hanna's sfull dinner
pals" have been found to. be
empty.
PERSONS who read the Great
Bend Tribune-and no other
county paper-are still in ignor-
ance about the change in post
masters that will soon take place.
Possibly Bro. Townsley has not
heard OF the new appointment.
In such case, the Tribune is of
course eXcusable for not men-
tioning the matter.
ALL voters of the First Commis
sioner District-Cheyenne, Cleve-
land, Comanche, Independent,
Lakin and Logan townships
should remember the date OF the
conventions at Clafiin-July II
and send delegations who
will select the best man for the
place:

The finest type.of manhood is
never overwhelmed or entirely
dismayed, no matter what comes.
A man OF this best type may see
his property swept away from
him, his hopes blasted, his am
billions thwarted, and his plans
demolished, but his spirit re-
mains undaunted; his courage,
his trust, and his self-confidence
are undimlnished. His success
is beyond the reach of mere acci-
dent OF fire, of panic, or of tenn
porary disaster; the foundation
OF his success is laid upon the
eternal rock of truth, OF justice,
of probity, OF high thinking, and
of square dealing, and no floods
or misfortuneS or commercial
devastatiOns can reach him.
They do not touch the real man,
for his investments are in him
self. 1t is only the more shallow
minds, men without reserve of
charac ter, Will out other
resources than money Or proper
ty, that go down in financial fail
ure. The man who has learned
to live in himself, AID not in his
property; who does not put.hIs
trust in riches, but in principle,
does not lose his greatest pos
session When he loses his money
