A SAD DOWNFALL.

of former Kansas man. once a, pros
porous and prominent lawyer. who was
given three months sentence for
vagrancy by a Washington court:
Though yet in middle life and bear
ing evidence of the once tall and pow
erful frame and imposing presence,
the shattered body seemed on the point
of utter collapse rs he sat with bowed
head supported on his trembling hands
awaiting for the summons Of the court
the summons to make his plea to the
charge of vagrancy. And what other
plea was there for him without home.

years past he had been known as one
OF the best brief lawyers in the state.

remain standing more than a few
moments, he sank, half faintlDg, into q
chair, as he waited the decision of the

faced the same court on the same

been given light sentences in the hope

DEMOCRATIC.

The special election clearlg demon :
strated that the peoples party is no
longer q material factor in politics. end
by reason of that fact the Index is now
a Democratic paper. It will advocate
the same principles as formerly, since
there has been no difference in Popu-
list and Democratic principles since
1896. It is folly to permit party
to divide men who have the same ideas.
and it has now been demonstrated that
the Democratic organization is much
stronger than what is left of the popu-
list organization. It is proper, there
fore. that the Democratic party should
receive the assistance and support of
all who are sincerely striving to defeat
republican misrule. and we are identl-
fed among that class of people.
The Index. by the way, is the only
Democratic paper and the only paper
opposed to republicanlsm published in
Barber county. Give it your support.

THE KANSAS ASYLUM SCANDAL.

The atrocious practices that have
been exposed in the investigations at
Topeka and Osewatomie as to the
treatment of insane patients in the
institutions located in those cities are
q grievous humiliation to the state of
Kansas. They are enough to fill every
man and woman in the state with indig-
nation and to cause amazement and
resentment wherever they become
known.
There is no department of public
service in which there should be greater
care than in that designed to care for
the insane wards of state. Only men
of 1T character should be put in charge
OF these institutions-men who are in
themselves humane, reasonable and
able, and who have enough force of
character to exact the severest dsci-
pline of their subordinates. To abuse
an irresponsible person intrusted to the
care of one of these institutions is
about as barbarous piece of business
"a could be fancied. It is bad enough
to ill-treat anyone who is placed in a
defenseles position, but to undertake
TO discipline the weakminded, or those
whose reason has gone entirely, by
brutal methods, Ia criminal and beastly.
Il certainly 10 not human.
While the chief responsibility for the
atrocities thus far exposed lies with
those Immediately in charge, more par
ticularly the superintendents of the
asylums, the state board is not without
blame. A closer supervision Of these
institutions would have made these
fbarbArous cruelties impossible. Even
anow, when the exposures are being
made, there is lack of aggressiveness
on the pert of the board in prosecuting
vthe investigations and in dealing with
the guilty ores. Mr.. Henry J. Allen,
the chairman. would better give less
attention to politics for q time aud
more 10 the asylums. The situation
demands the most vigorous action on
the part of the board.-Kansas City

Homeless For a Day

James Whitcomb Riley, in his in
imitabIe way, tells the story of a
much aggrieved and unappreciated
lad who made up his mind that he
could not stand the tyranny Of home
longer, and so early one morning he
put a loug-coutemplated plan into
execution, and ran away.
All day long he played down at
the old "swimming-hole' with the 9th
er boys, making a raid on an orchard
at noon to stiAe the pangs Of hunger
At night, when bis companions went
home, he was left alone, with lump
in his throat that hurt worse when he
didn't notice it than when be did. ~
As it grew dark, he "oozed' toward
home. He climbed the back fence
into the big back yard which had such
"homy" look that he had never no.
ticed before. After roaming around
getting acquainted with his home that
he had left so long ago, about twelve
hours since, be wandered into the sit
tiug-room where bis father was read
ing the evening paper, and mother
was sewing. They took no notice Of
him, and he sat down on the remote
edge Of chair and waited to be rec
ognized. He could hear the boys
playing out on the commons their
nightly game Of town fox but he
didn't want to join them. He just
wanted to stay night there at home
forever. The clock ticked, oh, 20 loud
ly; but otherwise, the silence was 20
deep that it was painful. Finally,
when it became more than be could
bear, be cleared bis throat and mus-
tered up courage enough to say,"Well,
I see you We got the same old cat.
God bless the boy who, finding he
has made a mistake in his valuation
Of home, is brave enough to go back,
and prove just how much the "same
old cat is worth, as compared with
no cat and homeless life.
