There is nothing which exasperates
democrats in any campaign, national,
state or municipal, so much as a ref
erence to "the full dinner pail" Yet
the apothegm is one of the most re-
spectacle and illustrious in origin Of
any in the parlance of our party poll
tics. 1t was first used by Mr.. Nc
Kinley, in his Ohio campaign in 1895,
to express what the policy of the re-
publican party would be if restored
to power "The full dinner pail" said
Mr. Mckinley, sis the sign and sym
boil of a peoples prosperity" The
expression at once gained vogue be-
cause the dinner pail was not then
full, but in disuse. The democrats of
that day were tolerant of the phrase,
but after 1896 had brought the re-
publicans and protection back, and a
few months more saw the empty din
ner pals filling up as if by some mir
acle like that of the loaves and fishes,
their resentment began to grow. They
snarled at every mention of the sign
and symbol" We have, on several
occasions, had great fun by arousing
our esteemed democratic contempt
rary to splutterings Of rage by pass
ing references to "the full dinner
pail" against which democratic lead
ers have such prejudice that it is
always thrown out whenever they
come in.
Mr.. Frederick expressed this idea
in another way the other night when
saying, in answering the charge that
he has been trying to drag the full
dinner pail into the municipal cam
paign, that it is impossible to make
an issue in politics of something which
is not in sight. Nobody can make an
overshadowing issue Of the full dinner
pail in the city campaign, because
there is not such a pail to be found
for overshadowing anything. 1t is the
empty dinner pals which are doing
the overshadowing now.-Globe Dem

Absence has prevented my replying
10 your letter of the 9Th instant soon

head of cattle on the Kansas CITY
market for 500 per cwt. that lost

Kansas City market which brought
me 50 80 per cwt. and made me some
money. The consumer who bought
beef for his wife and babies paid
practically the same price for beef in
March as he did in June. 1t is rank
injustice to the producers of this
country that there should be such a
variation and if it can be remedied
any way without legislation l
would like TO see it done, but l am in
favor of stringent laws, and if we can
find that the price Of the products OF

OTIS L. eENToN'S FIRST BUSINESS
VENTURE.

This is a little story that connects
our country's natal day with education.
it deals with the lemonade stand so
essential at a Fourth of July celebra-
ton, whose profits were sufficient to
finance Kansas boy through a term
at Washburn college.
1T was in 1882 or 1884, United
States Senator Charles Curtis said in
a talk With some friends in Topeka,
when this Fourth of July celebration
was held in the City park. near the
Kansas avenue bridge.
Charley Curtis was then a young at
torney in the office of A. H. Case.
Mr.. Case was a brother-in-law of Otis
L. Benton, a Pottawatomie county boy
who had come TO Topeka to work his
way through Washburn college. Char
ley Curtis knew of young Benton's IL
nancial straights and suggested that
he run a lemonade and ice cream stand
on the Fourth of July. assuring him
that he could make some money that
would help to tide him over a term at
Washburn.
The balance of this story of help
fulness to a deserving boy and good
friend is best told by Mr.. Benton, Who,
in referring to the matter said: Char
ley Curtis was one of my best custo-
mers on that Fourth of July. He spent
money Literally with me, and through
out the day brought scores of his
friends there, who became my patrons
l know it is due to the interest Char
ley Curtis took in this business ven
ture of mine to make money to pay my
expenses at Washburn, that run my
| profits of the day up to $4,000.
shall always remember Charley Curtis
as kind friend, loyal supporter and
an enthusiastic young man whose as
/ sistance upon that occasion was ap
preciated more than l was ever able
to express -
