A New Bootlegging Stunt.

Hay at 81 a bale Is pretty high
priced, but when every bale is
guaranteed to contain a, prize it
sells readily. On East Douglas
Avenue in Wichita, there is a deal.
er in hay who is said to have a
penchant for liquor selling also,
and in order to be able to sell both
hay and liquid refreshment at the
same time, he has hit upon the
happy expedient of placing a half
pint bottle of booze in his bales
of hay.
Persons who never bought hay
before are seen to visit his place
and 60 away with a bale of hay,
and some who have no earthly US,
for hay are his most constant Gus
toners. In the alleys and out of
the way places in that part Of the
city may be found dismantled
hay bales, and near them, not In
frequently may also be found the
skeletons Of once well-filled whS-
KEY Uottles.
To an acquaintance the man SaiC
Saturday that he had never had
such a demand for hay as he
has had recently, and he expect
cd to be able to lay by a nic'
profit unless the Wholesale ha!
dealers ran out Of horse feed, o.

You and the Tariff.

Once In awhile you will find a
man who stands up for the Payne.
Aldrich tariff bill. "They are
trading on your ignorance" says
the AdvOcate-Democrat, ''asum.
ing that you have not sense enough
to know and, as in the case of
Blaine, they forget that all arOunt
you are object lessons calling you
attention to the fact that you are
nemg lOOted-nOt to benefit your
national government, but to ben
eft private grafters who are get
ting rich at your expense.
You are brought into the world
on a taxed bed; covered with tax.
cd bed clothing, and while your
parents may have paid the price
Of first class woolen blankets to
shield you from the cold, your
shield is merely a shOddy article
which the Payne-Aldrich bill per-
mits the manufacturer to furnish
you at an exhOrbitant price.
You are rocked to sleep in a
taxed cradle, are rundled around
In a taxed baby carriage; play
with taxed toys and are wearing
taxed dresses decorated with tax
ed ribbons.
As you get a little older you
will find that your taxed clothes
are getting poorer in quality, but
no cheaper in price, when you
build your home you discover tha'
everything is taxed-brickS, lum-
Der, plaster, tin work and iron
work. Everything that you pur-
chase to furnish the home is tax
ed, and when you sit down to you
taxed breakfast table you are full
ly aware that there will be a tax
ed dinner and supper to follow
provided that dinner and supper
are within your reach.
You will be held up on every
farming implement you buy; you
will be laid away in a taxed cOf-
fin when you die and if you have
left enough to permit a marble
shaft to be put up to your men,
ory, at least one-third of its cost
will be a tax paid the marble trust
In excess of the actual value.
And yet they tell us that no
man in the Fifth district can show
where he is being robbed. With
American sugar selling for nearly
two cents per pound more at
home than abroad-still we are
not robbed. The publisher who
makes such an assertion knows
that he is being robbed on every
ton of print paper he buys; know
that a republican committee so ad'
mitted after investigation and rec
commended a radical reduction
knows that republicans through
their presidential candidate, prom
lsed revision downward, anG
knows that we didn't get it
and in the face of it all he tells
you we are not being robbed.
He argues from his point Of
view: To be robbed you mus
be held up at the point of gur
or mauled and man-handled Will
your valuableS are confiscated
but, if your pocket is picked ar
tistically, or a sleeping draught i
administered so that you can b,
looted without physical injury be
Ing done to you, it is not rob
berry, but a species of benOvolen
treatment to relieve your mind o
anxiety as to the care Of you
worldly wealth" "

death of Frank Breitwiser, aged IS.

heart with a batted ball in Central

This is the seventh fatality in base
ball games since the season opened
two weeks ago.
