Transporting Gentlewomen.

The subject of emigration for gentle
women is attracting an increasing
amount of attention throughout the
British empire, both in the mother
land, where the surplus and unem-
ployed woman is serious problem,
and in the colonies, where these same
women are sorely needed, says the
New York Tribune. 1t Is said this 10
partly the result of the Boer war. The
intense patriotism of the Beers and
their faith in their cause Is generally
attributed to the lessons learned al
home from the women. A life in the
wilderness might not be regarded az
alluring. bHt there are compensationS,

older countries is an unapprecisb, be

Turner Is An Independent.

r. W. Turner who seems to be the
democratic champion for congress in
this district is credited by asTopeka
paper with the following: ~ =.
" have no desire torun for congress
said Mr.. Turner in discussing the mat
ter. 81 am one of rapidly growing
class Of independent voters who pro
poses Of to vote for the best man re
CARELESS of what ticket he is on. l
would just as lief vote the Republican
ticket as the Democratic, or the D'm-
ocratic ticket as the Republican
"The recent Doodle disclosures all
over the country have had tendency
to make the average voter stop and
think what is the cause of them, and
he cannot help seeing that the real
cause is rank partlSanship, the fact
that men vote for party no matter
what sort Of a candidate his party has
up. These disclosures of corruption
are going to result in largely increas-
ing the number of independent voters
in the country The boOdlng is not
confined to any one party, but it is
In all Of them, so one party will not
be hurt or benefited more than an
other.
Il think large number of indepen.
dent voters will be good thing. The
fact that there is a large class which
will vote only for the best men will
cause the party leaders to be careful
about what kind OF men are nomi-
mated"

thought OF the minister who was stay

Rushed to the Defence of His Master

Last weefs Dispatch contained an
article which was communicated"
If one may judge by the heading and
the little note at the end marked
ed"
However the article was unsigned
indicating that whoever the author
may have been, he was unwilling to
stand sponsor for it.
In general it was an assault upon
the boss busters because they do not
as he, or it or whoever or whatever he
or it may be- follow the lead OF the
flew Boss" as he desires they should.
In particular, it was aimed at the ed
of this paper because he advocates
pure politics, and clean ballot, and
at the conventions, candidates should
be nominated on their merit and nc
states fixed"
Since that is his charge the Herald
is glad he has seen tit to give it pub
LEGATION, and there is no cause for
wonder THAT his name is withheld
Since the "Jew Boss" has always OPP
posed the Herald editor, and the COM
municant attempts a WORD in his
behalf, as a friend" it is not Surpris-
ing that both desire him to remain
unknown.
Now the Herald is perfectly willing
to join issues with anyone on such
charges as the unknown gentleman
from Arcade seemed to prefer but
an unsigned communication is like a
shot from ambush and Is a thrust that
one who is conscientious and honor
able would not attempt.
Defend your master, Mr.. = if you
desire, but have the courage to face
the music. Be sure too, that the
odium you seek to attach TO another
is not like the stencil with which the
skunk battles its enemies, the product
Of its own vile nature, but so that you
whOmay he "withOut sin" shall cast
"thedrstst0ne," Butt in II you choose
but let the people know what kind OF
an aSsailant you are.

Which Shall 1t Be.

The factioDal fight has extended to
every corner Of the state. 1t is en-
gendered by rival politicians, each
jealous Of the other and DESTROYS of
accomplishing the defeat of their OPP
ponents. In this fight of politicians,
the people come in for consideration
only as electors whose votes are to be
controlled for the interest of one or
the other Of the factions. The fac
tions themselves consider their own
success Of prime Importance, the in
tereSts of the state to them are of sec
ondary concern.
To all of this disturbance the people
re taking exceptions. A popular
auprising demands the nomination and
election Of e. W. Hoch Of Marion for
governor and the retirement of w. j..
Bailey the present incumbent The
politicians Of them demand
the reelection Of Bailey for sake of
precedent, claiming that he is entitled
to a second term because custom has
so ordained it, The people believe
that only Hoch can lead the republl-
can party to success. The Bailey ma
chine politicians claim that unless
Bailey is renominated fight will be
precipitated that will disrupt the par
tyand cause it's defeat. Everywhere
life long republicans may DE found
who declare they will not In any event
vote for Bailey should he be nominated
Has anyone ever heard such an aSSer-
tion concerning Hoch
The issue is clear. II the party Is
to be successful man must be nomi-
mated who can get the republican
votes, and no candidate can, who rep
resents one or other of the factions
and who has not the very best reputa'
tion as to character and ability, expect
to get the united supporter the party.
The candidates are W. J. Bailey and
e. W. Hoch. One represents the fac
tion and the politicians. One is the
champion Of the people and good gov
eminent. Which shall it be9

Machine men say that Burton used
Hoch at the state convention, and
that it begins to look as If he may do
it again. What silly gossip No pol
itician ever used Hoch unless there
were legitimate reasons for Hoch's
services The spirit of such talk is to
lessen the esteem in which Hoch is
held by the public, and in this way to
frost his candidacy.
