According to White there was gen.

bers of the legislature he met at st.
Louis because they did not get more
out of the Jackpot" but that was ex-
planned by the fact that $4,000 was
lost to the Jackpot" because of the
failure of certain legislation to go

The Peril of Wildcat Politics.

Some good friend of Messrs. Cum
minis, Bristow, Dolliver and Murdoch
ought to take these gentlemen aside
and tell them that in this hour Of VIC
tory it might be we'll for them to be on
the lookout for breakers ahead. Men
who talk with the airy reckleSsneSS of
these individuals may say or do some
thing which will take them out of the
pale of sane politics. Pretending to be
republicans they denounce the leaders
of the republican party and condemn
the record on which the party is appeal
ing for the support of the people. If
they are sincere in their belief that
they are right and that the great ma
jority of the party which elected them,
and to which they still say that they
belong, is wrong, they can not be blam-
ed for rejoicing over their triumph.
But let them be careful not to burn the
bridges behind them. Men as able and
worthy as they have found themselves
dropped outside of the breastworks,
and never were able to get back.
At one time and another some queer
politics has fourished in Kansas and
Iowa, and during the times that it was
rampant these states suffered in pres
tige. The list of the one-time republi-
cans who dropped into greenbackism
and populism in those states is long,
and in their submergence they carried
down their communities for brief per-
iods. And when those communities
were extricated they had new leaders.
Where is the Kansan today who feels
any pride in the round of follies into
which his state was plunged during the
farmers alliance and populistic fanat-
icism from 1890 to and including 1896?
That states capers in those years re-
PEELED settlers and capital, reduced the
value of its property, dealt severe
blow to it's credit, and hit it hard in
the census returns of 1900.-St. Louis

Charlie TOutOn's New Hotel.

Charles P. Touton sends us papers
giving an account of the opening of his
new Hotel Peru at Peru, ILL.,, on the
9th inst. with an elaborate banquet and
after dinner speeches.
'"The superb dinner, the beautiful
and dainty decorations, the rapidity and
smoothness of the service, all gave
eloquent testimony to the tact and skill
in social management of Mr.. and Mrs.
Touton and elected much enthusiastic
comment during the evening"" is the
praise given the success of the affair.
Continuing description of the hostelry
the account says:
Probably no event in the history of
Peru has elected as much general pub
lie interest as the completion of the
new hotel. The event marks a new
epoch of municipal aggressiveness and
prosperity for our city.
''The interior of the house and it's
furnishings afforded genuine surprise
to the general public. With mission
furniture and woodwork, contrasted
against light umber tinted walls, an
artistic appearance is effected.
''The English tile floors and the neat
fresco work were we'll chosen to taste
fully complete the interior. The lobby
is spacious and comfortable room and
can be rivaled in exquisite appearance
only by the large hostelries of the me-
tropolis. The substantial, upholstered
chairs in this room invite comfortable
lounging.
ga writing room, cloak room, wash
room, card room and bar room adjoin-
ing the lobby afford all the convent
ences of the best hotel. The dining
room at the rear of the first floor is
built to accommodate as many as sew
enty guests at sitting. 1t makes an
ideal banquet hall and like the other
rooms is finished in mission style.
each room has a telephone and run
ming water. One half of the total
number of guest chambers have private
bath rooms in connection. On each
side of the two upper floors is installed
a shower bath.
''The furnishings for the building
cost Manager Touton $4,000, which
makes the whole amount invested in
the building total almost $75, 000.''

If THE good old republican state of
Iowa is not headed straight for the
democratic column at the approaching
election, then party fealty and mankind
have undergone radical changes. If
loyal republicans fail to resent the i'm
pudence of two United States senators,
Cummins and Dolliver, so extremely
anxious to glorify themselves that they
openly insult the president of the
United States, the head of the republi-
can party-a man pure in personal life
and intensely loyal to party and prin-
ciple-then we have indeed fallen in
evil political days. 1t would seem for
tunate, personally, for these two sena-
tors that their return to the high
places they now hold by republican
favor does not depend on this years
election. -Viroqua Censor.

DEMOCRATS who desire the preserva-
ton of their party must exhibit gen

Der 6. Party candidates must receive
20 per cent of the vote cast for gov

dependently even in the absence of the

derive the important advantage Incl

the column designated democratic. 1t
has been we'll said that the ''good of

Jas. o. Davidson he expressed hope
to the writer that Hon. L. C. Whittet
would be returned to the legislature
from Rock county, as he deemed
him one of the most able and hard

his pleasure to meet. He considered it
the duty of the voters of the district to
continue in office a man SO competent
to grasp the problems of state. An
endorsement from such a source ought
to carry much weight, too.
