A tremendous amount of abuse is be
Ing heaped upon the "government"
anronos of the mow revenue stamps, 11 Is
amusing to not that the chief complain
ants among private cltlrnns still claim
to bo loyal republicans, being able with
that agility which voting thsg. 0, p.
ticket seems to insure, to separate the
adailuistratlon from Its misdeeds. Many
of the (treat trusts and combines that
contributed largely to the campaign
fund of 'W are evading the tux. The
irovernmcnt officials when ths matter
is referred to them decline to give any
opinion ami up to ths present the liidl-
viduul has been forced to pay the tax.

Halt and Jeulousy of the West--lloy
hood wonders.
The burden of republican song in the
east Is prosperity. In almost every
editorial column the farmer Is assured
that orosoerity has already come but
not a man have I met, who is in debt,
either farmer or mechanic, admits what

are as manv foreclosure sales. The
money lender, bond holder and corpora

are always counted In us mortgages dis

The western New York salt fever does
not run as high as it did a few years ago.
Seventeen hundred feet wells can be
bought for about the average once of
woodchuck holes. Fvory one of them
strikes salt seventy feet thick, but mak
lug salt does not pay und the high pro
tective tariff does not protect worth a
cent, And yet everybody swears by the
tariff and darns the west. When we say
everybody we mean every thoroughbred
republican for they and the high tariff
democrats are In the mniority, And
yet many of the most Intelligent begin
to suspect t hat the tariff does not move
suu and moon both. They darn the
west because they think too much bread
nnd meat Is produced there. They say
II It were not for Kansas, salt would
bring a good price, that Is, they would
make the west pay a good price.
Hut Kansas salt is much easier to get
and 111 null easier prepared for market.
They bore there only four hundred feet
while here they bore seventeen hundred.
The salt there does not need to be puri
fied or settled, while hern that procetei Is
necessary. There is little difference in
matter of fuel, but rather in favor of
K ansae. Then K ansae is In the middle
of the western market aud no ens tern
trust can cut their corners.
The bean growers stand in mortal fear
lest, Kansus and Nebraska should start
to growing beans. Hut there Is one
eastern crop which the west cannot, by
overproduction, efbt during the Mckin
ley administration and that is the crop
of injllloniilres That Is about the only
eastern product 011 the increase, and the
demand is greatly on the increase as
well. That is, the demand to become
millionaires.

EDITORS' IDEAS.
A iepulli!N.ii Oplnlou,
The republicans will make a mistake
that will prove serious if they nominate
Judtfe Ilaywurd for governor, with all
due resttect to ths honorable gentlemen.
Judge ilaywurd has long been honor
able and popular in that part of the
state where best known, but outside the
fact will not hinder the opposition from
convincing the voters that ho belongs
to the old gang ol robbers which are
largely responsible for the downfall of
the party. Home new, bright, younger
man should lead the t icket, and if such
Is not the comuh Jdge Ilaywurd and the
republican party will have ample time
to regret it after election Hardy

Hillmeyor & Hudler, the carriage men,
have added 11 new linn to their extensive
stock of buggies, carriages, carts nnd
road wagons, and now handle the cele
brated Studebaker wagons. This name

ity and the prices will be very low. See
them before you buy.

If tha people who e accepted In
vitations to a wedding reception to bo
given next week In a bouse on the
Hudson fall to find it, they cannot
Justly blame the bride's parents. The
hosts live within the limits of New
York city in a bouse that is conspicu
ous from the Hudson river. Probably
not one person In a thousand would
know how to reach the houso, how
ever, by the address alone. Inclosed
with each wedding Invitation was a
colored mup of that portion of the city
which lies along the Hudson between
125th gtret-t and Inwood station. The
house where the reception Is to be
held Is indicated by a red square. The
streets and cable roads are outlined.
Heavy red lines from 125th street to
the houso indicate the "best way for
driving," and blue lines mark tho
"best way for pedestrians." If the
guests bring tho maps with them and
start early enough, they are very like
ly to find the house New York Sun.

A strange account Is given of 'he per
formanceg of a government artesian
well at Lower Hrule Agency, In South
Dakota. When flrtit driven, the well
threw up a column of water tlx Inches
In diameter. After a while It began to
spout, alternately, sand und water.
There seems to be an milieus supply of
the clay, and the pressure upon It In
the bowcla of the earth muet be tre
mendous. It completely fills the six
Inch pipe, nnd lesuet nt the top like a
gigantic eausnge, rising to a height of
five or six feet More It topple over.
It Is necessary to remove the deposit of
clay In order to save the well from be
coming burled under It. The clay doe
not flew continuously, but, It Is said,
usually eoinmfcnceH a little before the
advent of windy and stormy weather.
