It is a peculiar fact that while a
directory or real estate census o.
a city is always "conservatively'
made the result in population is al
ways much greater than the federal
census shows. The reason is. Of
course. that one for Obvious reasons
is usually padded. the other seeks to
get the truth. To be sure it does
not always quite succeed. but all the
same it is far the most reliable.

Recent History Recalled

Not many years ago Henry ]. Allen
lived at Ottawa. and was a candidate
for the nomination to congress against
Congressman Charles F. Scott SCOTS
chief backer in that campaign was
Governor w. r. Stubs. When the
battle was over and Allen defeated, he
wrote and published in his Ottawa
Herald an editorial reviewing the dis
reputable charges Of some Of Mr.. SCOTS
backers, and especially some Of the
campaign methods Of w. r. Stubbs in
the interest of his friend, Congressman
Scott. In that editorial Mr.. Allen said:
Some remarkable incidents disgraced
the campaign. AT Baldwin City, Satur-
day, a negro arrived from Lawrence
loaded with whiskey bottles. He went
around distributing liquor, saying Allen
sent him. He was arrested and later
confessed in court that he had been sent
to Baldwin by Mr.. Stubs and others"
Now, Henry ]. Allen who penned
these lines only four years ago, is sup
porting for Governor this same man who,
he alleges, sent drunken negro to Bald
win to distribute whiskey in Allen name
for the purpose Of defeating him.

and his platform. George is candidate
for the Democratic nomination for
Congress from the Big Seventh, and we
want to say right here,that in our opinion
he will make one Of the best races that
has been witnessed in this district for a

make his opponent. Ed Madison, explain
why it is that he enjoys the confidence
Of both the insurgent and standp dpat

DolIiver Admits Error

When Senator DoIiver was attacking
the Payne-Aldrich bill in the Senate last
spring, Senator Depew Of New York
chided the lowan with the statement
that he (Dolliver), had taaveled all over
the country in the campaign Of 1896
making speeches in which he charged
the Wilson bill with responsibility for the
panic Of 1898. Would you now pass a
blue pencil throug those speeches?"
asked Depew, smiling.
IF | were called upon now, said Dol
liver to repeat what said many years
ago, would blue pencil a good many

Congress did one good act, at least.
1t abolished the practice Of printing en-
velopes for business firms at a loss, and
hereafter merchants who want their
names printed on their envelopes will
have to patronize a legitimate printing
Office. The government In times gone
by has lost thousands upon thousands
Of dollars in the envelope business. 1t
paid printer large sums Of money for
printing these envelopes, then distributed
them throughout the country. paying the
railroads for transporting them and finally
sold them to the people for less money
than the imprinted envelope costs. AS
long as gratis of this order are tolerated,
a postohce deficit is certain. But it is a
small satisfaction to know that this one
abuse has been overcome.
