OFFICIAL PAPER of Edwards Co.
Harris Says Nicaragua

sit is unfortunate but a fact that
the farther we get away from the his
toric performance of the ORGY on, the
more obliviOus the American people
become As to the lesson of that
achievement, and the less insist mt
upon the necessity for the speedy CON
struction of an isthmii.n waterway,
the need of which the Oregon's long
journey SO thoroughly demonstrated"
remarked ex-senator Harris of Kan
sas recently ut the Raleigh. according
to q Washington dispatch.
The senator's remark was elected
by the question as 70 what he thought
of the outlook FOR the canal in the
light of the non action OF the Colon
bian government. He is an engineer
OF high attachments and has made a
study of this question.
lone does not know what to think
about it. he replied. shut it does not
seem TO me that there is much room
for hope as to Panama. I have al
ways favored the Nicaragua plan.
Though it is longer route, it can be
built in less time. The repor, OF the
commission is quite clear upon that
point. We have lost at least three
years by stopping to bargain with the
owners OF the De Lesseps property.
Besides there are legal and political
complications connected with the
Panama canal. to annoy and hinder
our government, of which the other
route is Free"

The question of how the farmers
stand on the tariff and trust issues
has been strongly indicated through
the enterprise of the Farm and Home,
published in Chicago. That news
paper sent out $1,000 postal cards re-
guessing answers to seven questions,
among which was: "Should tariff be
revised ?' The vote on that PROPOSE
ton was yes, q, 1913; no, 10, 1873. When
it is considered that the majority in
most OF The states from which this
vote was gathered is largely republi.
can, it marks the revolt in the ranks
of that party against excessive pro-
lection. But another vote was taken
on q kindred subject that shows how
the extortiOns of the trusts are re-
garded by the farmers. The question
asked was: "Should trusts be regu-
lated or suppressed?" The answer
was: Regulated, 22,s54; suppressed,
IA, 449. This straw vote shows the
drift for tariff reform and regulation
of the trusts. The standpatters have
q job in front of them next year.

But the Bryan democrats have not

what they have to contend with, and
are preparing for the fight. Mr.. Bry-

Bryan fiercely attacks the Cleveland

The fight in the democratic party is

Expert opinion is to the effect that
the Investigation OF frauds in the
Indian country will be a farce. II
the president of the United States
was Ineligible to reelection there
would be some chance of accomplish
ing something, as it is it is always
too close to an election and the party
in power is afraid to punish the ras-
Gals for fear of the effect on the COM
ing election. This is the reason why
the people expect to see tie present
investigation of crimes in the post
Office department come to nothing be-
yond the cOnvicting of a few small
fry who will be made the scape- goats
of the administration. The tendency
of the times is shown in a recent de-
cision by one of the departments az
fecting a certain congressman who
was involved in shady transactions
regarding contracts in the late war.
The matter was allowed to drag along
until the statute of limitations was
run and then report was made that
nothing could be done.

by which the miners we're to have an

in the belief that such raise could

the mine owners.had no intention to
lessen their profits. On the contrary,
they made it pretext for raising the
price of coal SO cents a ton, giving
them 40 cents a ton more than under
the old wage scale. 1t would have
been better for the consumer to not
have arbitrated. However, while the
public gets the worst of it, a little sop

Tn the summer and fall of 1902, w.
81. Craddock tried to convince the
people of Kansas that their taxes
were great deal higher than neces.
sary. But at the election he was
turned down by a big majority. The
natural inference was that the people
thought taxes were low enough and
needed no further reduction. Finding
the people in such an excellent humor,
the politicians went Mr.. CraddOck
one better and raised the taxes Now
there is u big roar, for which we can
see no reason. The people voted
against reduction. Why kick on a
little raise? Give the poor, hard
working politician a hance.-Le Roy

Will Fight Il Out.

The announcement of James w.
Orr's candidacy for chairman of the
Kansas delegation to the democratic
national convention is declaration
OF war. 1t means that the democrats
who believe in Clevelandism will nm
dertake to control the state conven-
ton. For several years this faction
OF the party has been whipped out of
its boots in state conventions by those
who stand by Bryan and hate Cleve-
land. At Wichita in 1902 it was a
dogfall. The Bryan democrats named
the ticket, but the Cleveland demo-
Gratis captured the state committee.
Next year the Cleveland democrats
will attempt to obtain absolute con-
troll. It is reported that they have
received some money from the East to
help in organization. With money

The Horton Commercial gives the
following sage advice: It's always
sultry before the coolest shower;
you're always hungriest just before
the dinner bell rings; and the most
tired just before bedtime. And you
are just as likely to be discouraged
just before things come your way.
The tide must go out as far as it can
before it begins to come in. So don't
give up ut this time. Stick. The
homely nag often comes under the
wire first, because it didn't know it
was beaten on the first quarter. Amy
one can stat off with rush, but few
come in with u hurrah.

At midnight Thursday of last week
the vault of the Burton state bank
was dy namited and everything in
sight of value carried of before the
citizens could arrive on the scene
The bank was of course temporarily
embarrassed but the promptness with
which business can be resumed serves
to illustrate the development in mod
ern banking methods. But a few
years ago and robbery of this kind
would have been q calamity which
would plunge a whole community into
gloom and ruin many people. But
under modern methods a robbery of
this kind causes only temporary in
convenience while the bank proves
its loss to the insurance company
when every dollar will be made good
to the bank and the depositoxs will
not lose a dollar.

Considering the combination by
which Seth Low was elected mayor of
New York at the last election it is
remarkable that the betting odds on
the present contest are not in favor of
Low. he has made good officer
and done as near his full duty as it
was possible for him to do, yet the
fusion forces which elected him are
disintegrating from the same causes
that affect other parties, lack of
enough jobs to supply the hungry
horde of office seekers. Those who
failed to land jobs will help Tam
many and the result will probably be
the election of Mcclellan.

that they were called for at that time
seems to indicate that the proprietors
thought it a good time to go into the
more respectable form of the saloon

the city referred to had lost license
paying set of barkeepers and secured
n lot in their places that would not
produce much revenue for the city.
