Vice President Hubert died at his

morning at 8:30, from heart failure.
General Fred Fan stem of the
Twentieth Kansas regiment, has a

ia still with us.

Ibis fall. When Kansas bleeds sbe
bleeds hard, and when she's got
enough she quits,
It is claimed that flilas A. Hoi
comb whs elected on National issues.
Don’t you believe it, it was because
the whiskey trust and the railroad
companies knew their man.
An Anurcbist funeral was held iu
Havana. Cuba, laat week, at which
one Falco, an Italian anarchist whs
billed to hnrai g the people. The
Civil Governor, Nunez, concluded he
did not want any of that kind of doc
trine spread among his people and
Mr Fulco was immediately suppress
ed.
The treason element of the demo
cratic party, and the little Ameri
cana generally have chosen a god
head as set up for them by the last
lvaun of Aguinuldo’s Journal, the
Independence. It is llizal, Agui
naldo and Bryan. Poor Kizsl, he is
dead or their trinity likely would
luck a name, an he was a man of
brains, education and patriotic coin
on sense, that, lie never failed to use
lo the lu st interest of his people.
Mr Kieh, one of the fusion candi
dates (or regeut of the Slate Hniver
sity, received over f,000 less voles
in Hie stale than did his running
male Ylr. Teeters, audit was thought
once, wns defeated. Iu Sherman
count) he received 92 votes less than
Teeters. This is a condition that is
not easily accounted for, unless it
was because tlie name “Rich" was
construed by the pops to mean
a man who bad money and be might
want to pay his fare on the railroad
if elected.
---
The editor of the Times endeav
ored to explain, last week, that be did
not say there was two thousand peo
ple at the Bryan meeting, but that
there was that number in town at
train time. The explinaiion is jaat
as rank as the inference that was
sought to be conveyed by the first
statement. Their claim of 800 peo
ple at the meeting was allowed,
though it was clearly 200 too high,
there was not a pcrsou to be aeen on
the street while Mr. Bryan was talk
iog aud half the crowd were residents
of the city without a doubt. That
would leavt 400 outsiders in attend
inee. Our towu contains 70o people,
sild the other jOO, which is too large
by at least lOo, to ths 700 and we
have 1 ,lo0 ail told. Are not thoae
figures as near correct as it Is possi
ble to make them? If they are why
did you say g,000 Mr. Brown? Why
not acknowledge that your first
statement was just to carry the Ides
to the country that a great crowdj
had Com* out to hear Mr. Brrau.
Those subterfuge* seem of lata to be
gw<‘d politics, but lit t are mighty
poor principle, and sooner or Inter

was terrible. There was but four
real battles fought, and the Dumber
of troopB engaged on both sides in
the four, was 1550 on the British
side and 1250 on that of the Bours.
Statistics show that there was 732
Hnglish soldiers went down in the
four engagements, while the Boer
loss was but 47. The present war
seems t« show about the same ratio
ot casualties between the contend
ing armies so far, but Great Britain
has apparently braced herself for a
light io the death. The Boers in the
wur of 1880 1 distinguished them
selves and demoralized the enemy by
picking off their ofticers which tactics
they are following up in the present
struggle. This of course will force
the same rule in the English army
and sharpshooters will tic used with
the same object. The war will be
a bloody one and the end looks far
ofi.
The Republican party, true to their
traditions, have again began to pay
of!'our public debt, and last week
secretary Gage gave it out that #25,
Ooo.ool) of bonds could bo turned in
and the cash received for them at
market price, though none were yet
due, there was nearly #.'{,000,000
worth turned in thcllrat day. This
is u transaction Ibui for seven long
years has not been known In the
United State*, and should convince
people of all parties that u repub
lican administration is the only one
that insures us that our public debt
will not be handed down to oar
grand ubildrcu In 2.‘< years after
the close of our great civil war, two
billion dollars of our immeuse debt
was extinguished, and now after a
blighting democratic reign of de
pression and debt making, the party
that paid off nearly two third* of the
war debt has again taken up tbe
broken chain and began to liquidate
the balance, which has been inalcri
ally added too by n single success of
our democratic friends. Which is
the party to trust, the otm we prosper
under or the one which continually
enlarges our debt.
