'Give Us Light More Light." Olathi azxttk The Mirror's Inst week's bid for compliments was just too utterly too too. Couple the tail end of that "mule story" to their appeal for light, and the purpose of your contemporary is set forth in plain anglo-saxon.

The two articles evidently bear stronsr relation to each other. and forcibly suggest the old Second Reader poy witn a piece or Dreaa in one hand, coax-, ing uuugry uog up oniy give nun a blow with a stick he held in the other. i To invite bushels of postals all speckled over with whims, "giving his or her views frankly and fully," opens the way for a I grand reception in the sanctum of that paper. This was of course foreseen, and the mule story was inserted as a cut on. no indeed cafes to waste time in expressing his views in the face of a bulldozing declaration that the Mirror is itching to Bit right down on such offenders.

You see the result? If mat muie Btory carries wmi 11, me weigm iu progenitors intended, the incoming tide of postais wiu do ireigniea oniy wun sou soap and taffy.

"i ours, truly, Aoricola. Aubrv, July 15, 1882. Timothy Tanner Again Heard From. Olathe Gazette The unseemly boast- ing of the "senior editor" of the Mirror two weeks ago, of whathe did for the temperance cause in Ohio, reminds me of one ot yusop Fables. I give thc story in full The' Boasting Traveler A man who had traveled in foreign lands, boasted very much on returning to his own country, of the man wonderful and heroic things he had done in the different places he had visited.

Among other things, he said that when he was at Rhodes he had leaped to such a distance that no man of his day could leap anywhere near him and as to that, there were in Rhodes many persons who saw him do it, and whom he could call as witnesses. One of the bystanders interrupting him, said "Now my good man, if this be true, there is no need of witnesses. Suppose this to be Rhodes and now for your leap." According to his statements, the Mirror man "laid himself out" in Ohio in aid of the Pond law, a law which has been pronounced unconstitutional, and has proved to be of no practical benefit whatever. We have his own assertion tor this, and it the witnesses are wanted, they doubtless could be produced in great numbers, not in Olathe, but Ohio. iu, nuai bin iiuiivi niuit a j'vni biuii iii.

Yet this 1 jaw iim www ucviatvu wiisuHiuviim tjr lrii7 Supreme court of the state; and it is a law that does prohibit in more than thrce-fourtl of the state. The "columns" of matter written, an 1 "speeches" made by this quondam temperance man. In view of his present position on this question, only serve to make him all the more ridiculous in the eyes of the sensible Republican prohibiticnista of Olathe and Johnson county. I will give the Mirror's opposition to Gov.

St. John a passing notice only. It takes only half an eye to see through the whole thing. A stranger would suppose trom the fearful bugbear that the Mirror makes of Gov. SL John and those who are advocating his renomination, that everybody in the state, his uncles, and aunts, and cousins, had been mercilessly deceived, robbed, yes, even, murdered by these men that thev were a veritable Jesse James gang turned loose upon the innocent and helpless Republican party of the state.

The Mirror has assumed to know more of the motives of these mera and to have in its possession more history of their private and public lives than an acquaintance of a dozen years would justi- g. What does the Mirror really know of ov. St. John and others upon whom it is expending so much venom Literally nothing whatever of that which it assumes to know. The present editors of that sheet have not been citizens of Kansas long enough to be able to dissect men who long ago gained the confidence of the people.

They nave atttempted to use the knite and saw. however, with what unskillful and even bungling hand, the sequel has clearly shown. But for one, am disposed to be charitable to these strangers in our midst. I is very easy to conclude, in fact, it is the most plausi ble explanation to bring to their rescue, that they have been have been duped by others who bad a nal grudge against the parties known as persoi St. John men.

There is no need to dodge on niakinsr this admission, if the stones to be thrown are to come from clean hands or from those whose official transactions win uear cioms nippcciiiui. it all in all, I am well satisfied with the noble party that was raised up to do a grand work for God and for humanity In nrnsprvinr int.iotlhrt federal mivTiimenL xing well done, the question now arises, What is tlie mission of the Republican party or i)H8 none worti, of? I learn from a certain source, which claim to be an exponent of Republicanism, that prohibitionists are Vfanatics," "kangaroos" and "cranks," and still further, that a temper- ance celebration is regarded as an anti- -Ke- publican" movement. Are we to understand by thc uac of sucb language as the foregoing, that the Republican party intends to take a new departure and hereafter march under the banner of the Distillers and Brewers association? That the parly, whose 6teady "tramp, tramp," was heard all throiiffh that long and dark nisrht oi the re bellion, pressing on to the glorious cultnina' tion of a nation's hopes, has become demor- alized, and now endeavoring to keep 6tcp with the whisky brigago as it staggers down to luiu That the philanthropic statesmen who tore the shackles from off the souls and dies of 4.000.000 of human beinirs are dis honored by successors who are forging fetters with which to bind a free peoplo and make them slaves to their lusts and baser Can it be that the defenders of the dear old flag have received orders" from headquarters to make a charge with pens dipped in gall, or with the clenched fist, on all that is good and sacred, not even sparing a woman's priceless reputation We to think that the malicious assault on a woman's good nr.me was an act of such heinous character, as that ho who so did, thereby forfeited every claim of being a gentleman. Perhaps I have not kept abreast of the times, and have failed to note the fact that a new state of things has been inaugurated, wherein sobriety is decried and the drunkard is applauded for his pertinent violation of a wholesome law.

Therefore, I would like to know what the status of the Republican party in thc United States is at the present time. Kansas, Ohio, Iowa and some other states are all right, and have every reason to believe there will be more than one "crank," 6o far as turning is concerned, and more than one "kangaroo" will do some tall jumping from one side of the question to the other, when John P. St. John is nominated for Governor by the Republicans of this commonwealth. Lkxex.
