A Political Endless Chain.

To run for Office always has been
the burning desire of the average re-
publican politician in Kansas, but the
spectacle of politicians running for
two offices at once has been reserved
for the campaign in the year of our
Lord 1902.
At the Holton convention which
nominated Charles Curtis for Cong
ressman in the First district Judge
Albert H. Horton, in speech, sprang
Curtis boom for United States Sena
tor. Curtis now is working like a
beaver, saying to the people, 'tKeep me
in office, or I perish. First, elect me to
Congress. Then elect me to the
Senate. If capture the senatorship
you can go to the expense of another
election in the First district and
choose somebody else for my seat in
the House. What [ want is to stay
in, and 1 have got to run for both
jobs to keep in line for promotion next
winter, or two years later. -
Chester I. Long began his campaign
for Senator six months before he was
nominated for Congressman in the
Seventh district. There are several
men in the Seventh district who be-
lieye they could represent the District
in Congress with credit to the repub-
lican party, but Mr.. Long said, "Not
so. am next to the president. I
am the man the president sends for
when he wants to know something.
I am 1T in Washington. I really am
too big for my job, and would go high
er. But if I can't go higher, I'll hold
fast to that which I have. ~
So the party bowed to Mr.. Longs
will. While Long is pushing two
campaigns with great vigor, he hasn't
the cinch that Curtis has. Curtis
will be elected Congressman, but
Long has a fight on his hancs S. If
Long wins the Congressional fight, he
then will demand the Senatorship.
II he gets that, then the Small Fry
republicans of the Seventh district
may scramble for his place in the
House.
The fad of Congressman for running
for two offices at once spread. Up in
the Fifth district, w. A. Calderhead,
after receiving the nomination fol-
Congressman, jumped into the Sena-
torial fight. Now comes a report
from Lawrence that j. D. Bowersock

We Honestly Differ With You.

A republican is one who votes the
ticket whether his fellow is nominal
ed or the other fellows man.-Phil-
lipsburg Dispatch.
A republican of the highest type is
one who is jealous for the honor and
good name of bis party; who reSentS
an injury to the party as he resents a
personal injury. No greater injury
can be done to the party than to force
the nomination OF men of low and un-
worthy ideals. Such a man in Office
reflects nothing but dishonOr upon
the party which dominates him. The
good republican will do all in his
power to save the party from the
stigma which results from the eleva-
tion to Office of men whom conscience
less tricksterS may force upon a con-
vention, to the detrtment of the best
interests of the party.-Kirwin Kan
san.

have not been heard from. Henry
Allen, holding fat job, wants fat
ter one, the state partnership. George
Clarke, after two years as State Secre-
tary, wants the same job.
Governor Stanley is not running
for two offices at once, but he is do
ing the next thing toit. He began to
skirmish for Senator before he had
finished the second year of his first
term. He seldom goes to his office
now. He has even quit signing offici-
al documents ia blank. His private
secretary does 1t all, with the assist
ance of the Governors son, who has
been placed on the payroll.
How different from this unseemly
grab for pie is the candidacy of Will
liam A. Harris. Last spring leading
democrats and popuiisfs urged Sena-
tor Harris to accept the nomination
for Governor, and run for Senator
later, in the case the anti-rep publican
forces carried the legislature. Sena :
tor Harris did not consider the prop
osition minute. He made a state
ment to the effect that we here to
follow the suggestion, he not only
would be grasping and selfish, but
would be untrue to his party and I'M
fair to those who might aspire to the
nomination for Governor. The posi-
tion taken by Senator Harris was ap-
plauded by the whole people, regard
less Of politics.
The rank and file of the republican
party are not in sympathy with the
new scheme of running for two off1c es
at once, and are waiting only for an
opportunity to register protest
against it. This opportunity will
come in November when many repub-
leans will vote for the democratic
and populist nominee for representa-

APPENDICITIS.

SOME FACTS REGARDING IT'S RAPID
INCREASE.
Appendicitis among Americans is
certainly Increasing and while this is
probably due to the excitement and
worry OF American business life, it is
mure often directly traceable to con-
stlpation. Appendicitis is caused by
-extraneous matter entering the verm-
form appendix and not by the Swal-
lowing of seeds. If the digestive Or
gans are kept in perfect condition SO
the food is duly assimulated and the
bowels move gently, at least once a
day, appendicitis will never develop.
Don't take chances. Regular does OF

craddock's Speech.

At the Topeka meeting, August %,
Mr.. W. FL. Craddock fusion candidate
for governor spoke in part as follows
On behalf of the fusion party the
following statements have been made
by me in good faith.
First. The statement in democratic
platform that in democratic Missouri
the Burlington road pays taxes on a
valuation OF $15,33 per mile, while in
republican Kansas it pays taxes on a
valuation of $1,000 per mile The
Missouri Pacific SI9,011 in Missouri;
81, 1872 in Kansas; the Santa Fe ST., O57
in Missouri, and S6,749 in Kansas;
The Rock Island S16,724 in Missouri,
81, O64 in Kansas" is supported by
evidence, and on same basis the diff
ference in assessment in favor of
Missouri and against Kansas, was 80
millions of dollars, which. at five
per cent rate made one-third of taxes
collected by Kansas in 1901, or 800
for each voter and So 90 for each in
habitan6.
Second. That the public utility
corporations in Kansas were capital
lied for, and the people pay intesest
on 600 million dollars and republicans
assess them for taxes at 10 cents on
the dollar. Tax Commissioners report
for 1902 show railways, telephones,
telegraphs and Pullman cars, are
assessed for S66, 220, 293.
Third. That grossly unfair dis
elimination is made against the farm
er and home owner, whose property
is assessed at one-third to one-half it's
value.
Fourth. That the fusionists de-
mand that the corporations of Kansas
pay taxes in same proportion, and on
same basis of value as is paid by the
farmer and home owner. That if
this was done. the taxable. property
in the state would be doubled, and by
reason of increased valuation taxes
would be reduced one half, or $50 for
each voter and $3.50 for each inhabi-
tant; or where you now pay 500 tax,
you would pay $50 tax.
Fifth. That the party in power
never enforced law where gain could
be made by its on-enforeement.
That among the more fragrant viola
tions of law are:
A. Refusal to enforce Trust law.
B. Refusal to enforce Prohibitory
law.
c. Refusal to enforce Gambling
law.
D. Refusal to tax corporate prop
erty at its cash value:
E. Refusal to enforce law giving
old soldiers preference in state
and municipal employment.
Sixth. That excepting the old
soldier law the interests profting by
refusal to enforce the law lived out
tside the state, and is it not reasonable
to suppose they would be favored at
the expense of the home people unless
a consideration were involved.
Seventh. That our motto HTo Dc
Right" is in consenance with oul
platform demanding the enforcement
of law or repeal of law continuously
violated.
The fusionists are asking election
because they stand for enforcing the
tax Law against corporations, which
means several million dollars per yeaI
to the people, also the enforcement
! or repeal Of the trust law, gambling

For the mouthpieces of a party
which is commonly supposed to have
a walkover in Kansas this year. the

elaborate pains than necessary to
abuse Mr.. Craddock.-Kansas City
Star.

Craddock promises to reduce taxes
one half by making the tax lodging
corporations list all their property
and thus double the total assessed
valuation. The Topeka Capital
Sneeringly asks "why not throw off
the other half too?' and evidently
thinks the people will be fools enough
to get be-fuddled on the matter.

It is the same with the word rheuma-

affection, such as results from a cold.

A BIG FRAUD UNEARTHED.


The U. S. Mail Used Is the Medium for Its
Operation.
V. D. Snyder and P. w. Stewart,
President and Vice President OF the
"Union Wholesale Company" with
headquarters in Kansas City, pleaded
guilty in the Federal Court last week
to three indictments charging them
with making fraudulent use of the
mails. The Federal authorities, who
have been working up the case against
the men for some time, characterize
the general scheme of the company a.
one of the biggest iraude that has ever
been operated through the United
States mails.
The concern has been thoroughly
aired in the civil courts, where some
Of the victims brought suit. The
concern was regularly incorporated,
and the statement of the Secretary OF
State that the firm had a capital stock
of $4,000 gave them a rating. The
firm dealt in books and advertised for
persons 10 take charge Of branch
agencies. Correspondents were re.
quired to bring letter of credit or
draft for $500, or for $1,000 to cover
the cost Of the books with which to
do business. The prospective agent
was promised salary on condition
that he sold a certain amount OF
books. The books proved to be worth.
less and utterly unstable. When
any OF those who were caught made
trouble they were sued for damages.
Such . suit was brought by Stewart
and is now pending in the Federal
Court against w. s. Corbaley, who
caused Stewards arrest by the Federal
officers in Denver. Snyder was ar
rested in Chicago month ago.

Raising the left arm high as you
can will relieve choking much more
rapidly than by being thumped on the
back. And it is we'll that every one
should know it, for often person gets
choked while eating when there is no
one near to thump him. Very fire.
quently children get choked while eat
ing, and the customary manner of re-
lieving them is to slap them sharply
on the back. The effect of this is to
set the obstruction free, so that it can
be swallowed. The same thing can be
brought about by raising the left hand
of the child as high as possible, and
the relief comes much more rapidly.
In happening of this kind there should
be no alarm manifested, for if q child
see that older persons or parents get
excited it is very liable to get so also.
The best thing is to tell the child To
raise its left arm. and immediatelylthe
difficulty is overcome.
