TAKE YOCR LOCAL PAPER. If you are interested in tax and mortgage sales in Kansas City, you may be excused for taking a Kan- sas City paper, for it is the most fearfully taxed and mortgage-ridden city on the face of the earth. Your local papers will give Eaoporia people all the telegraph news in a more reliable shape than the eight-page Kansas City paper, five pages of which are filled up with tax and mortgage sales, two or three about the Karnival Krew, and the other pages with dauby cuts of horse races and police escapades. They are of no earthly use to an Emporia reader and hardly fit to lay on pantry shelves. In your home papers you get all the telegraph news, market reports and local news, and, at your has been an ardent worker in the Bap tist church, of which he was a deacon tend at Hartford can be transferred to Olpe.

G. Gray. platform can be used by the opposition on the stump with fearful effect against the candidates standing thereon. Hence, in all the conventions we attend, we are more solicitous for a vote-getting platfowi than anything else. In this we do not mean any sacrifice of principle, but rather a differential embodiment of principle and an outline of purpose that strikes tbe voter as about the right thing; at least, as not objectionable.

With such a platform the candidates and their friends can go upon the rostrumon the stump or into the school house and make such a showing that if every man in the audience were sitting as a juror he would vote your way, and, would most assuredly do so with a secret ballot at the polls. Perhaps nine out of ten men, even those who are delegates to a convention, fail to comprehend the importance of a carefully framed platform. They seem to think that any jumble of words will do and, perhaps, none at all would be better. This ia a very narrow view and would soon result in the disintegration of the party. The platform is the tie that binds, and more attention should be given by a convention to the platform than even to the nomination of candidates, for parties stand or fall on the platform.
