Browr declared that the irrigation talk of Fowler and Maxwell injected into the Arizona campaign amounted 10 nothing to what is ROW going on in JIl Paso. The Pass City is jammed with de'egations 10 the National Irri- satlon Congress from every section of the west. They are jolly crowd. and water irrigation is not the only kind of irrigation with which many of them are familiar, judging by the pat yOnage being recelvei a. the bars. which by the way dte caiy open Of week days in Fl Paso.

Abraham Lincoln, 1903, 1885.

Ninety-three years ago was born
Abraham Lincoln, one OF the great
men of the worlds history. These
few words spoken at the dedication
Of the National cemetery on Gettys'
burg battlefield, November 10, 1868,
are worth your reading again:
"Four-score and seven years ago our
fathers brought forth ON this conti-
nent new nation, conceived in
liberty, and dedicated to the PROPOSE
tion that all men are created equal.
"Now we are engaged In a great
civil war, testing whether that nation,
or any nation SO conceived and SO
dedicated, can long endure. We are
met on a great battlefield Of that war.
We have come to dedicate a portion
Of that field, as a final resting place
for those who here gave their lives
that that nation might live. 1t is al
together fitting add proper that we
should do this. But, in larger
sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot
consecrate, we cannot hallow, this
ground. The brave men, living and
dead, who struggled here, have con-
secrated 1t far above our poor power
to add or detract. The world will
little note, nor long remember, what
we say here, but 1t can never forget
what they did here. 1t is for us the
living, rather, to be dedicated here to
he unfinished work which they who
ought here have thus far so nobly
advanced. 1t is rather for us to be
,ere dedicated to the great task re.
before US; that from these
IGNORED dead we take increased de.
lotion to that cause for which they |
ave the last full measure Of devo-
ion, that We here highly resolve that
hese dead shall not have died In VAN;
hat this nation, under God, shall
ave a new birth OF freedom; and that
overnment OF the people, by the
eople. for the people, shall not per-
,h from the earth"

Judge Humphrey for Governor.

The Salina Herald says it is time to
be looking for the right man to "
named as the Democratic candidate
for governor Of the state. 1t adds:
"In looking around Cincinnatus
can be discovered who is quietly pur-
suing his business at his.home as he
always has at junction City. His
name is Judge j. Humphrey. Judge
Humphrey is man whom the people
OF Kansas can honor and trust as he
has always honored himself BY an up
right life 10 public or private walks.
He Is not without public record and
1t is a clean one from start to finish.
As a jurist he has no superior in the
state and when he sat upon the bench
OF his district court his rulings we're
able, just and without reversal.
When he served upon the state board
OF railroad commissioners his rulings
were In favor Of the shippers, while
he never did an injustice to the rail.
roads. This was because Judge
Humphrey is an honest man and when
In an important official position he
discharged his duty as an honest
official. The watch word is now "put
none but honest and able men on
guard" II then Judge James
Humphrey will consent to become a
candidate for governor on the Demo-
cratic ticket not only will the Demo-
Gratis Of the state have an honest and
competent man to vote for but those
In all other parties who are crying |
put for honest men cannot 90 amiss
In Judge James Humphrey Of juno
lion City. A Cinciunatus lie needed"
tits probable that the Kansas Dem
,crscy does not need Cincinnatus so
much as 1t does Gabriel but there
s little likelihood that Judge, Humph-
'ey, able as he is, will be chosen FOR
'ither capacity. He is no POpulist-
owing Democrat such as the party In
Kansas desires.

Advertising That PAYS.

Wichita Eagle: The shrewdest
business men of today are giving
much attention to advertising. To
get before the public, in the speediest
way, is the surest way for quick re.
turns. 1t is now possible to jump
into a full-fedged paying business
through advertising enterprise, by
knowing what to say, when to say
and where to say it in day. The
development Of advertising has been
SO recent that even the most expert
enced have by no means reached q
full understanding Of principles.
Among the positive conclusions which
are beyond doubt is this: A part Of
the people may read street car adds;
some Of them may read posters, book
lets, hand bills and the like; and
many may pay attention to magazine
advertisements; but the great body
Of the buying public is newspaper
reading people.

Reform, Not Vengeance.

Kansas City Journal: 1t is charged
BY several organs Of the late Albaugh-
Leland machine that the reiormers
are bent on Furnishing the friends Of
Governor Bailey. The reiormers are
bent on destroying the last vestige Of
the office-selling ring which has dis.
graced Kansas and the Republican
party. They are bent on getting q
legislature that will attend to the
peoples business instead Of the poll.
ticians' business. They are bent on
taking the official machinery Of the
Republican party out Of the clutches
OF the ringsters. The withdrawal Of
Governor Bailey is merely 40 incident
10 the thorough overhauling which
the reformers have undertaken. 1t Is
not campaign Of vengeance for pun
ishment, but a campaign Of reorgani-
Eation. The friends Of Governor
Bailey and the friends Of Ed Hoch
ought to look alike, and they do look
alike to every well wisher Of Kansas.
But IL is absurd to suppose that re.
form can be accomplished without
knocking down the politicians who
have been responsible for the condi-
lions Of which the people Of Kansas
so bitterly complain. 1t is necessary
that these politicians shall be retired
to the peaceful walks Of private citi-
senship. Il Is the part Of the re-
formers to see that they are retired,
lnd to do IL By means Of an open fight |
