Xatersd at the rostofBce at Llncolf, Kansas, aa Second-Class matter. "Farmer and Cy Leland are both mentioned as possible mem bers of McKinley's cabinet, the De- partment of Agriculture bring the one selected for them by the guessers Either of the gentlemen would nil the position most acceptably. There is considerable tals of a con stitutional convention. Kansas doesn't need a new constitution badly enough to lay out a quarter of a million dol lars for one at this time. The state constitution is good enough and the people should give their representa tives to understand that no such use less expense will be boorne without protest.

The Pops place the blame for the attitude of the other states towards Kansas upon the Republicans in this way. They think that nobody would have paid enough attention to their threats to legislate creditors out of existence for it to have become known beyond the Missouri river had it not beea for Republican newspapers and speakers calling attention to it in the campaign. They claim that they should not be held responsible for what they have said, and perhaps they are right, but the trouble is to get others to take that charitable view ot it. WASHINGTON LETTER. IFrom our own Washington, D.

Nov. 23, 1896, Senator Morrill, chairman of the senate committee on finance, called at the White House, by invitation, this week and had an extended conference with Mr. Cleveland. As Mr. Cleveland is known to entertain a high regard for the opinions of Senator Morrill on questions of finance, notwithstanding their wide difference from his on the tariff brauch of the question, it is rea sonably certain that he discussed with Mr.

Morrill the financial recommenda uons ot his annual message to con- cress. It is also probable that he gave Mr. Morrill, who naturally declines to discuss the matter for publication, a Iiint as to whether he would sign or Allow the Dingley bill to become a law without bis signature, if it should be passed by the senate. Senator Morrill will probably acquaint his Republican colleagues on the senate finance com mittee with the nature of that confer ence before tbey begin the work of the coming session of congress. It is a mighty good thing tb.t the presidential election did not turn upon the electoral votes of Virginia.

If it did there would be the biggist sort of a row, as it is now charged that the sil ver Democrats of that state so juggled the votes that what should have been a McKinley majority of 25,000 is made to appear to be a Bryan majority of something like 2 000. Some of this fraud may be shown up in congressional contests. Col. T. S.

Clarkson, commander-in- chief of the G. A. stopped in Wash ington on his way to New York to at tend the big reception tendered him by Post of that city, and last night he was honored with a rousing informal reception under the auspices of the officers and members of the de partment of the Potomac G. A. R.

Coi. Clarkson and others made speeches which aroused the enthusiasm of the veterans to a high pitch. Nearly all the Republicans among the early congressional arrivals in Washington are outspoken in favor of passing a tariff bill that will at the same time give the government the revenue it must have and the protection needed by our home Industries. Representative Grout, of voiced this sentiment when he said: "I would like very much to see congress meet in special session at noon of the very day after the inauguration of President McKinley. The call for a special session should certainly be the very first act of the new administration.

There will be votes enough in the senate to pass a Republican tariff measure, I am confident. If the votes of the silver Republican senators from the west are needed for that purpose I do not believe they will be withheld. The constituents of these senators are all protectionists, and it will be a different matter, that of defeating a clear-cut iDg to vote for a measure, from refusing to vote for a measure that even its friends called a makeshift, and which there was no assurance that a Democratic president would sign. The question of patronage, too, may cut some figure with these men, for they would not like to alleniate the administration for the whole term of four years." The following resolutions adoptad by the Union Veterans Patriotic league at a meeting held this week, are self-explanatory: "Resolved, That the Union Veterans Patriotic League continue its organization for the purpose of opposing any effort, made by whatsoever party, to depreciate our currency at a ratio of 16 to 1, having had the experience of an unavoidable depreciation when serving our country for 613 per month. Resolved, That we will labor until the last taps sound against sectional issue mob rule, and alt ant a upon the executive and judiciary branches of our government." The league is non-partisan and was organ? ized to oppose Bryan and the Chicago platform.

Bryant, a is a isn't the slightest probability that enough Republicans will be caught in this scheme to make it successful The leaders of the Republican party are all rigit.

They know that the peo pie elected a Republican president and congress as much because they wanted tariff legislation which will fully pro tect every American industry as be cause they wished to maintain a sound and stable currency. The two things go together and, whatever may be done at the coming short session of congress, as certain as the Fifty-fifth congress meets there will be a tariff bill pre pared in accordance with the wishes of our people, and, while it is not certain that the bill will become a law, owing to doubt as to senators yet to be elect ed and to the position of some Repub lican senators, It is altogether probable that it will. If not. it will not be the fault of Renublicans. Told Jiy a "Reformer.

Last Friday's Kansas City Star con tained the following: Lincoln Center Nov. 20. The Bryan Free Silver club, the Democrat ic Campaign club, the Free Silver Republican clnb and the Populist Cam paign club of this city, have been merged into one permanent club. The Democrats made an effort to have the new organization named simply the "William J. Bryan" club, but the re formers outnumbered them.

This spicy bit of news was doubtless written by a "reformer" as it is strictly correct in every detail except that there never was a Democratic Campaign club, a Free Silver Republican club nor a Populist Campaign club in the town The Pops had a club which was joined by a few Republicans and Democrats who got stuck on the free silver doc trine, but the whole shooting match went under one canvass and was called the Bryan Free Silver club. The re-or ganization was probably effected to see what was left after the "Waterloo we heard so much about. Farmers' Institutes. The method of imparting informa tion on agricultural subjects by means of "institutes" is growing in favor. The plan is followed in several states with marked success, and the results are apparent in many communities in the way of better stock, larger crops and more economical methods of doing farm work.

On sncli occasions the farmers of a county meet and compare totes and discuss the labors of the year, and by this general interchange of opinion many new ideas are brought forward, the social amenities are cultivated and the farmer feels that he is the better for these meetings. In Wis consin, this year, in addition to the regular features will be inaugurated, and other novel features will be intro duced. In that state 101 institutes have been arranged for, and it is expected that no less than 50,000 people will be in attendance at the different gatherings. In Missouri the institutes have just begun this season, and the indications are that tbey will be more successful than ever before. Some of the ablest lecturers in the state will be present at the various meetings and the farmers generally are displaying unusual inter est.

The programs are well arranged and the subjects for discussion are selected with the view of bringing out the practical results of farming as car ried on in Missouri. There is no risk saying that the farming community will get much more benefit from at tending gatherings of this sort than from listening to monthly demagogues discuss "per capita" and the iniquities "the money power."

Allen B. Cross A noble life and a sudden death. In 1877 Mr. Cross first came to Lin coln county, Kansas, from Pennsyl vania, and opened a store near the pres? ent Sylvan Grove. Will Morgan was partner in business.

The store was a success, but he sold out when the railroad came in, and commenced farm iug and followed that occupation up to time of his death. TT was an old soldier and had seen some hard fought battles. He belonged to the 148th Pennsylvania volunteers. In 1881 he married Miss Ida Sierer, of Wilson, They were blessed with a happy family four boys and one little baby girl, mm rnn hnfnrB to th nthor shnrp Mr. Cross loved his home and alwajs all he could to help every member his family and was a kind neighbor.

Two years eo he became a ctmstiap Is to do er or FEMININE FASHIONS. Near Styles and Materials for the Late Autumn. Comparing' the costumes and models that are now arriving' in the best shops with the statements of many of those who are supposed to know what is what in the fashionable world, is rather amusing business. Assurances have been given that very tight sleeves will be worn, and that skirts are to be much more elaborate than heretofore. Looking1 over the ground, we find very large sleeves, not perhaps containing' quite as much cloth in the sleeve proper as those of six or eight months ago, but still large enough to disprove the state ments of many of the prophets and en tirely relieve the mind of any apprehen sion lest an entire reconstructing: of last year's dresses will be necessary, The important change in sleeves con sists in a slight contraction at the tops and flaring cuffs, with a great deal of trimming of various sorts.

One dres, costume has the cuffs cut in leaf -shaped points, lined with satin and stiffened with very thin whalebone, which has been pressed so that the sleeve-points curve back almost the shape of an Easter lily. Inside of these points there are ruffles and ruffles of crepe lisse or lace. In one dress seven yards of lace eds-inp; were tewed in the sleeves at the wrists, A more simple style had fine side plait ing- of taffeta, made double, with a very narrow lace at the edge. A favorite fashion for new sleeves is a velvet sleeve, rather close, with drapery of brocade or other material of which the costume is made. A dress of this sort is of large-flowered brocade, The waist is in coat basque fashion.

There is a very wide turned-over collar and lapel of velvet, a velvet corselet with large rosette bow with long ends, and a velvet standing collar with bow at the back. The velvet sleeves are moderately close-fitting, and there are voluminous draperies of the brocade caught up front and back and falling over the arms to the elbows. Another bodice for a dressy costume has a very deep yoke of velvet with satin lapels edged with elaborate embroidery. The sleeve tops have some what the effect of enormous soft bows, the loops being nearly half a yard across their outer edges. The gathered part comes immediately at the top of the sleeve, 'the fullness falling- either way.

A very stylish autumn street costume of Priestley camel's-hair has moderate-sized leff-oVniutton sleeves, over the tops of which are long pointed sections Of velvet sewed down to the camel's hair. These are put on before the sleeve is made. There are three of these sections, and they occupy the en tire upper half of the sleeve at the shoulder, then separate into points that cro over the fullness of the sleeve to the elbows. The tops are gathered in as usual, making nearly as much full ness as dressmaKers nave ueen in xae habit of using. As to skirts, while there are trimmings used to some extent, they are by no means universal, nor are they likely to be during the coming winter.

There is little doubt but that spring1 styles will show elaborate skirt trimmings, but just now such garnitures are conspicuous by their absence. Especially is this notable in view of the announcements that have been made. The separate waist is quite as much feature as heretofore. With the exception of dresses of ceremony, a few princesss costumes and some tailor-made suits, the rule of difference prevails. Skirts of woolen material, velvet, velveteen, corduroy, ben-galine and heavy silks are standard articles.

With these are worn waists of every degree of elaborateness and almost every imaginable combination. It is a fact worthy of remark that black skirts are more universally worn than ever before. Out of 50 costumes noted on a public thoroughfare, about seven were of other than black material. This, of course, applies to the autumn styles. Many ladies cling to their late summer fabrics, and a thick linen skirt occasionally seen.

The early winter models are shown in extremely pretty styles. A dress of biscuit-colored cloth is made up with olive velvet and satin matching the cloth in color. There is a plain flaring skirt without trimming. The waist is of the cloth, with a wide corselet belt made of folds of the velvet. An Eton jacket of the velvet has wide lapels that run to the points of the jacket at the waist-line.

Inside of these lapels are cutaway fronts trimmed with gold braid. These fronts close at the throat, and are very slightly open over the bust; the sleeves are of the cloth and close-fitting. Draperies of velvet fastened with rosettes at the front and back entirely cover the sleeve-tops and the upper portions of the shoulders. The rosettes are of satin to match the facing of the lapels. The narrow cuffs of velvet are edged with gold braid.

A hat of olive felt trimmed with fancy feathers and a biscuit-colored velvet complete a costume that for style and elegance it would be difficult to surpass. N. Y. Tribune. Baked Apple Sauce.
