Another R .pub,ican R msdy.

The Cleveland Plain Dea Ter says
"there is a man in New Ham pshire
who boasts that he lives on sixty-nine
cents week. There's a fellow who
can snap his fingers at the beef trust. -
And here also is another sugg estion
for republican remedy for trust i'm
positions. Let the laboring man live
on Sixty-nine cents week and they
will not fear the impositionS of the
beef trust. In fact they will have so
little life in them that they won't
fear anything. Commoner.

An obIIque Eulogy.

1t is suSp ected that the eulogy of
Congressman Williams of Mississippi
on the Union army in the Civil war
was only an artful method of reflect
ing on the methods of war in the
Philippines. The subject of debate
was the alleged inhumanity of the
American soldiers in the Philippines i.
Mr.. Williams side of the House had
been charging the United States army
with the commission of atrocities.
The republicans defended the army,
and in the course of the argum ent
they made the point that war is cruel
at best, and cited Sherm ans march
to the sea as an example of the stern
necessity to burn and destroy.
Promptly Mr.. Williams of Missis-
sippi, as the son of a confederate SOL
dier, arose to defend the memory of
Sherman. The Union army he de-
clared, was a noble and chivalrous
enemy that observed the rules of war.
Mr.. Williams wanted it distinctly
understood that he would cast no
aspersion upon the Northern soldiers
who conquered the South. 1t was
libelous, he declared, to comp are the
acts of Sherman with General Smiths
order on ,Samar.-Kansas City Star.

Overreached Himself.

The little Jew boss of this city gave
himself and his low down m ethGds
completely away in the Dispatch
yesterday. He said that j. NJ. Tad
lock had been nominated for state
superintendent and then went off on
long discourse about how Judge Cole
had been slaughtered in the house of his
friends, as IN. Tadlock's nomination
would put Cole out of the rae etc. ETC.
If Royce can't find some excuse to
try to get the pOpulists and democrats
to quarreling he does not hesitate to
guess on what's going to happen, and
try to induce them to scrap over that.
In his anxiety to cause trouble he
has once again overreached himself.

y Graduating Essays. y

Music, in that it appeals strongly to
our best natures, has refining effect
and gives d sense of pride to the
uncultured.
See how nature music delights us
it is pleasure just TO hear the tiny
bird pour forth its little song. 1t
alone has put sunshine into many lives.
1t is through natures music that our
best writer's have been inspired to
give their best and richest thoughts.
Imagine all the music taken from
the world, we would feel as though
we bad lost some great pleasures yes
more than a pleasure. How often we
have been cheered and cOmforted by
music of some kind.
Music makes person happy and
when we are happy our faces are
pleasant to look at.
It is told of an artist who, wishing
to reproduce on canvass the life like
expression of a woman'S face employed
skilled musician to play every time
he painted. In this way while the
woman forgot all else but the sweet
sound of the music, he obtained the
expression he so much wished.
While all of US cannot have our
faces painted on canvass by an artist
as mentioned, but we are all having
our characters painted by the Great
Artist above. And do we not want
them beautiful? Seek then the music
that will make US happy. We can
find it everywhere if we listen for it.
We are enveloped in it. The birds
twitter it, the trees whisper it, our
friends smile it. We hear it in the
innocent c. DING of the baby, and it all
is from the Master Musician.

Free From Scandal.

It is favOrite saying of republicanS
that administrations in their charge
are free from scandal. They strut
around and tell you SO on every occa-
sion. But it is not always true as the
following summing up by the Clay
Center Dispatch shows:
''Under a republican administration
tie stealing of 81, 200 from the prison
ers at the penitentiary by the en-
ployeS of the institution is mere sir
regularity The pounding of boys at
the reformatory until they can scarce
ly stand is introducing necessary
method of discipline and treating
and thoughtful care. When a repub-
lican officer permits an in sane woman
in his charge to escape to awful death
from a car window and not even know
that she is gone for a half an hour or
so, it is one of those lame ntabl lie hap
penings that are liable to occur most
any old time and there is no sugges-
tiOn of careleSSnesS OF incompetence
on the officers part.
"When the new republican United
States marshal opens the federal court
with God Save the Queen, it is mere
ly made subject for josh and forgot
ten in Gay or two. An Indian agent
is-found padding the payrolls and rob-
bing the government and ten lines is
sufficient mention in the papers and
census bureau clerk is short $1,000
with scarcely more notice taken of the
fact. Possibly there Is in this an ex-
PLANTATION of the wonderful freedom
from scandal a republican adminiStra-
tiOn always enjoyS-let d republican
tell it,"

lien Born VS. Self Made.

We are sometimes led to believe
that school boards and school teachers
are not much smarter than other
people. One of the things that con-
firms US in this belief is the iron clad
rule in SO many schools that student
cannot graduate without an Grafton.
Orators are born not made, and when
d teacher cOmpels a pupil against his
will to deliver all Grafton the chances
are that be is doing that pupil posi-
tive wrong. Ii he has an aptitude
for such work. all right, but if not,
the chances are that If driven to the
task it will be at the sacrifice of some
thing that will be worth great deal
more to him in after life. This world
needs mathematician and scientists
a great deal more than it needs wind
TANNERS anyhow COncordia Empire.
1t is frequently said that orators
are born, and not made, and if true it
is equally true of mathematician and
scientists. But the birth alone won't
do the work. Orators are born and
then made, just so OF any other class
of men. Edison is born electrician
but he has spent more hours building
on that foundation than any other
man in the world and the fact that he
is an electrician does not excuse him
for being densely ignorant of the
English language.
Kansas high schools are not giving
special courses. There is a course of
study adopted which is considered
the best general course and the fact
that your boy don't like English or
grammar" or thinks it girl study,
does not allow him to deviate from
the established rule. He will need it
some Gay and the teachers and school
boards have much more experience
and precedence than has the average
13-year-old boy. We cons ider it
very dangerous doctrine to argue to
boy that if he is born great he will be
great. 1t is much safer to impress on
him that what he is, he is, but what
he may be and will be depends entire
ly upon himself.-Belleville Freeman.

An uninterestlng Puzzle .

':Stop eating meat is the cry of
laboring men," This is the headline
over an article in recent issue of a
Chicago republican newSpa per. Dur
ing the campaign of 1900, the columns
of the same newspaper each day a
picture of a tin bucket with the plea
to vote the republican ticket and OBJ
tain ''four years more of the full din
ner pail" This republican paper
quotes laboring man as saying that
to stop eating meat is the only way in
which laboring men can obtain their
rights. One of the most uninterest-
ing puzzles ever offered to the Ameri-
can working man is how to find the
meat in his ''full dinner pail. Com

craddock Named for Governed.

Mayor Craddock of Kansas City,
Kansas, is named tor Governor, and
the populists left to complete the
ticket at Topeka June 24th.
Following is the ticket agreed upon
by the democrats:
Governor-W. II. Caddock, of Kan
sas CT ty, Kansas.
Secretary of state Claude Duvall Of
Hutchinson.
Auditor n. is, jr. of
Kinsley.
Superintendent of Schools William
Sence, of Wichita
Justice for long term-J. D. McCleY-
erty, of Fort Scott.
Justice for two year term. C.
Cannon, of Mound City.
There are eight places left for the
populists to fill.
The state committee met Thurs
day night and elected H. P.
Farrelly chairman and Charles Nc
Crum secretary. This action was
practically a complete oyerth row of
the old committee and its officers.
Frank Thomas, of Topeka, who has
been treasurer of the state committee
for years, was reelected.
Just before the comm ittee met
David Overmyer, who has been the
only man mentioned for the nominal
ton for governor, announced that he
would not permit his name to go be-
gave as his reason for declining to al
low the use of his name the action of
the convention in determining to let
the populists name a part of the
ticket.
The withdrawal of Overmyer the
election of Fare lily for state chair
man and Charles McCrum for secre-
tary, worked revolution in the sent
iment of the convention.

LIFE.
Katie Belle Smith.
iNdIIC btII6 DLlILus
''Life is real, life is earnest,
And the grave is not its goal"

''Life is real, life is earnest,
And the grave is not its goal"
Thus spoke the poet. and few there
are who realize how infinitely vast
are the truths contained in this sim
pie couplet.
Life is generally under-valued by
great majority of people. 1t is not
made half as much of as it should be.
Occasionally you will. find one who
laborS earnestly, steadfaStly, conf
IDENTIFY; and straightway becomes fam
Gus for wisdom, intellect, skill or
greatness of some kind. The world
wonders, admires, idolizeS, and yet it
only illustrates what each of us may do
if we take hold of life with purpose.
We should take life just as it is, an
earnest essential affair, just as though
you personally were born to the task
part in it; as though the world had
waited for your coming, and it was d
grand opportunity to do and to
achieve, to carry forward great and
good schemes. The first step toward
greatness, is to be honest. Some in
their passion for sudden accumula-
tion, practice secret frauds, and i'm
agine there is no harm in it, if they
are not detected.
Be honest from principle and not
from policy. Men Shudder at the dis
honesty of others, at one time in life,
when sailing before the favorable
wind of prosperity, but when ADVERSE
ty overtakeS them, their honesty often
flies away and what they once viewed
with apparent horror, they now prac-
tice without scruple. Every human
being is the center of influence for
good or i'll. We should let our lives
be such that our good influence will
be felt by all with whom we come in
contact; we should remember that as
one leak will sink a ship, and one flaw
break a chain, so one mean, diShonor-
able, untruthful act or word will for
ever leave its impress and work it's
Influence on our characters. We
should never lose sight of the fact
that life in its true sense, does not
