Tbe republican leader in Kansas are
in a fair way to wreck the educational

tbem the foot ball of politic. The bet

boarding boas business waa then atop
pad by rot of tb republican regent,
Tbty didn't want to do anything eon -
trary to law. Last week a petition
igndby30tudut asked tbat thtlthe United ftatee would employ aJ
boarding bouse b reopened. Tbt reg-
snts scratched their beads, read tbt list
of name again, and voted to commit
tbe earn crime tbat tb popuilt bad
beta decapitated for,
Tbt ousting of these two regent gave
tb republican control and tbey forth
with proceeded to knock out all tb ar
rangement tbat bad been made for
tb commencement exerciee. Tbty
countermanded tb engagement made
with Bryan for a peecb on that occas
ion, On of tbe leading republican pa
pers, tbe Sallna Journal, aay:
"It waa certainly poor politic to
countermand tb engagement of William
J. Bryan for tb commencement address
at tbe agricultural college. Tbt republl
can bavt been complaining of tb ex
treme partisanship of the populist la
tb management of tb tat educational
Institution, and uow,at tbe very outset,
tbey ar guilty of tb earn thing. Tbe
national reputation of Bryan a an or
ator I a uffloient warranty for bis en
gagement for th commencement ir
cle."
In answer to numbers of inquiries in
regard to Major Eager, all tbat can be
aid i that bl mother ba received a
short letter In addition to th cablegram
irom mm, ji say tunc the ione ol
bl foot were badly mangled, but that
while flit wound is very painful It is not
considered dangrouN. He thought It
would be two months before h would be
fit for duty again. He said that he bad
tbe best of care and tbe only thing to
complain of was tb excessively , hot
weather.
Wbat la Mark Hauna going to do with
tb Island of Mindanao? It I almost a
large as Luzon and the late Spanfeb
mlnleter of war, Nicolas Eatevaney says
tbat it was never conquered by Spain,
that tb most tbat tbey could claim was
little atrip of land along certain part
of tbe coast, lit say tbat tbt native,
who ar all Mohammedan ar uncon
querable, They have maintained their

could send againet tbem, J her is a
good chance for another war, another
iaeaeof bonds and tb slaughter of a
few tboueand more American aoldlera.
All of wbicb Ii just to tb liking of
Hanna, McKinley and a lot of preacher.
Tbe bead liar on tb gold bug sheet Is
no longer the circulation man. Tbat
position Is now given to tb headline
writer. For a good example, look at
the State Journal of lost Friday morn
ing. Ite headlinee over the diepatch con
corning tbe democratic meeting at St.
Louis were aa follow: "Party badly at
aea Bryan shouts for silver Say it
cannot bo shelved, and Altgeld agrees
Strong undercurrent, nevertheloee,
against giving It a place." Whoa tbe
wbolo account Is read through tbe
"strong undercurrent" fail to appear.
There soeins to bea mortal dread among
the leadure of the republican party tbat
free silver will not be dropiwd. Every
rep paper one takes up has an editorial
or two telling how fret silver will be
dropped by tbe populists and democrats
In the next campaign. That always
make u think of tb old aoylng: "Th

very much more than tbat. .
This race problem tb American people

"Within on month from tbt publica

P1- nntl1 tb,n" row ,0 that tbey
cannot b endured, ia all wrong. Tbey
think tbat aucb a condition would force
a revolution, but It wouldn't. That
kind of talk wa beard around Wnabln
ton In 18021 by men who ought to bav
bnown batter. Tbey said "Let tbem de
monetize ellver if tbey want to. When
tbt day of bankruptcy com and price
fall one-half or more, when thousand
of men are thrown out of employment,
they will tarn and burl tb republican
party from fpower." But it did not
work tbat way. Th day of bankrupt
cy came. Hundreds ol thousands ol
mea were thrown out of employment,
but in tbeir distress aud want, Mark
Hanna was able to buy tbem with the
monoy furnished by the banker, tb
trusts and th ineuranoe companies by
tb thousand, at a dollar a bead. Tbat
ia tbe way it worked, and that I th
way it will alway work. From distress
and misery tb republican party got the
larger part ot Ite votes. Good time
