him to go west and seek a farm where muscle can win and not so much money is needed to make a start in life and g-et a cage for a bird. The fact that the west has thousands of acres of levelax' and better land that can be purchased HOTEL MIDLAND, Best Two Dollar a Day Hotel in Kansas. DUDLEY RHOADS, Proprietor. Appllcntion has been made for entrance at the Post Office at Hutchinson. Kansas, as Second-class Matter.

seen the completion of his highest ambition, and the southland has developed the best of her possibilities. Not only has tho country lost a truly great citizen, but journalism one of her brightest stars. The Kansas State Teacher's Association is now in session at Topeka. The session will last until Friday evening. About 600 teachers are in attendance and a splendid time is being- experienced by all present.

The session opened by an address of welcome by Governor Humphrey, and a response by President Wilkinson. Prof. J. M. Bloss is one of the principal workers and will furnish several papers.

Prof. Bloss is an ex-superintendent of public instruction of Indiana, and is a fine lecturer, as well as instructor. Senator lugalls promised, address, and this will be the largest and best session ever held in the state. Teachers should attend these sessions, as much practical benefit is derived from them; and no class of workers need to be fully up with the times as those who occupy the highly honorable position of custodian of the minds of the young. The country abounds with first-class teachers, but there is room for a few more at tho head of the class.

the wasp-waisted, pale cheek, deformed chest, and worthless companion has developed into the robust, red cheeked, well developed and useful wife and mother. The street butterfly has changed into the business shop and office girl. Female dependence has changed to female independence. But to judge of the coming man, you will reach a different conclusion, if a comparison of the present with the past is made and the same line carried out as to the future. The present young man in many cases does not faint at the thought of his old father and mother furnishing the requirements for a subsistence.

Too many young men loaf on the street corners, -in hotels, around billiard tables, smoke cigarettes, affect the dude, harbor an empty head and pocket-book, and when an opening for usefulness is made, trouble often follows to find a young man ready for its duties, when the country ought to be full of them. This inattention to intellectual culture, and indulgence in social vices and inactivity has dwarfed the physical manhood until too many of our young men are physical migets. While the world is full of good young men, like the hive, it is full of drones that must in some manner be disposed of. Let the old chestnnt of the coming man give way to the practical one, how shall we enhance the general usefulness of the present young man. This is the question of tho hour upon which tho destiny of the future hangs.

with Big Me (Foraker) annihilated, Tanner in the soup, and Harrison repudiated by Iowa and Ohio, as well as the soldier element and reform element of many other states, what is the inspiration for the republican household for 1S92? New York, having trumpad Iowa and Ohio in November, and holding the key to the situation of '92 displays to the world a full hand before the draw and pants for the coming fray. Verily the situation is full of hope to the democracy, and the peoples party will again pick up the reins of government in 1892. Mr. Harrison already "sees the inevitable and to an observing eye it would seem that he proposes to avoid being caught in the wreck by evading the race. The blindest partisan of the republican ranks already admits that Benjamin, of the tribe of his grandpa, is not the political Moses to lead the oft deluded hosts of his party to Kadesh in 1892 So James (G.

the brother of John (Sherman) is trotted into the ring. Bnt Jim has not recovered the feathers knocked from his plume by Gro ver in 18S4, and the plumeless knight is not a dazzling thing to promenade before the people. McKinley was the man of destiny, but "The Campbells" kindly relegated him the land where presidential timber is rendered valueless for 1892! So the search is still on and the man of destiny for the g. o. p.

has so far failed to reveal himself. Surely our cup of anticipation for the next race is full. Let the caravan move on. PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY BY IV. C.

The present congress is slow in recognition of new republics. This is timely.

They want to know something of the ability of those republics to control their citizens in ''blocks of five." Congressman Cannon, of Illinois, who has had tho misfortune to lose his wife by death recently, will return to Washington next week. He will take his two daughters with him and take up quarters at the Shorehouse. Winter is said often to linger in tho lap of spring. Fall, not to be outdone, not only lingers, but actually tarries in the lap of winter and refuses to be dislodged by threats of cyclones, blizzards and the whole hand of arctic trumps. Congressman J.

D. Taylor, of Ohio, has introduced a bill to establish a uniform system of bankruptcy. Just continue Mr. Taylor and his party in power a few years and the universal bankruptcy will follow for tho same reason the tail follows tho dog. It is fastened to it.

A citizen of Illinois writes to a Chicago paper asking where ho can get his name changed. He states that if it was Judas Iscariot or Guiteau he could stand it is simply Culver. We can cite him to a grtatlegallightin Chicago that will attend to that matter, free of charge. Tho gentleman's name is Lopgenecker. A Rice county, man by tho namo of John Benson performed a most remarkable feat lately.

Upon looking out of his window he saw a bevy of wild ducks trying to extricate themselves from tho ico which had frozen around their legs. Seizing a corn cutter he hastened to tho lake and decapitated 134 of them, and it was no extra day for ducks either. Next. Speaker Heed has now announced his committees. In tho main they are about what might have been expected.

McKinley gets tho chairmanship of the Ways and Means, and the West generally fared pretty well. In the selection of committeemen from Pennsylvania tho fine Italian hand of Mathew Quay can be seen between the lines. Quay believes in rewarding his friends and punishidg his enemies, and through Speaker Reed he scored his first blood. The St, Louis Republic, comes out "with a double leader on the ugreat steal" in municipal government of the great city of St. Louis.

This is supplemented by counter charges of bribery. It is true that in our great cities too many unscrupulous persons are elected as custodians of municipal affairs. It also transpires that when this sort of timber onco infests these places it takes a great deal of continued hard work to dislodge them. This municipal reformation when it does come, is always brought about by tho people's best guardian, tho press. Noav that the Republic has opened firo let the good work proceed and, if St.

Louis, like Chicago and New York, must send some of her public servants to the pen, let them go. The municipal atmosphere is always better after some such cyclone. An extended notice of the illness and death of Henry W. Grady appears in this paper. His body now rests in tho vault of W.

D. Grant, at Oakland. Not only does a gloom hang- over the south, whoso favorite son ho was, but the whole nation will bow, with uncovered head at tho grave of Henry W. Grady. Though a young man, ho has carved for himself a monument of fame.

His father was slain in the late war, and his son carved his way to the exalted place he occupies in the hearts of the people, by his perseverance and close application. Ho has demonstrated the possibility of young manhood, and set an example worthy the emulation of every young man in tho land. By his devotion to the interests of his native state and section of country, his impress is upon tho face of every enterprise. His counsel was an inspiration to every undertaking- that in any way would conduce to the developement of the south. His genius won for him the admiration of the nation, and his eloquence riveted him upon the hearts of New York and Boston.

The full force of his character will be better understood when tho passing- years have for from 10 to $25 dollars per acre than i can be gotten in the east for S50 or $75, is now beginning to be believed by the young- men of the east. Kansas, while not having an absolute monopoly of all these western advantages, doubtless offers greater inducements upon a more substantial basis than any other western state. Her fertile prairies are waving their hands to eastern muscle to give her a chance to spread herself. That her boasts are well founded is evidenced in the fact that every railroad traversing her territory is groaning beneath the loads of corn, wheat and oats that she is now pouring into the lao of the markets of the world. The influx of immigration strengthens her markets, deepens and broadens her avenues of trade, and business openings are daily found in which the young man of small means may embark and enter tho throng marching to wealth and ease.

The development of natural resources, though only begun, has already attracted millions of eastern capital, and as these resources are inexhaustable, millions more will be added in the near future, and the real greatness of Kansas as a state will be known to all the world. In view of the advantage and ease of local transportation, the ease in carrying on the work of the farm, the avenues of trade and business daily opening, the push and vim of the people, and their genial hospitality, our advice, "with one of old" is, "young man go west," and don't fool away any time in doing so either. THAT "Alt" PUXCII. It is said by some prohibition papers, that Vice President Morton has a barroom in connection with his house in Washington City. It is now claimed by these same papers that Mrs.

Harrison has become the dispenser of the "ever joyful" sold over Mr. Morton's or somebody elses bar. A lady thinking Mrs. Harrison should not do such naughty things has addressed her the following letter, enclosing slip containing account of punch given by Mrs. Harrison some time ago to the Pan-American delegation.

She writes: "Can it be possible that the contents of this slip of paper is true? I cut it out of a little paper named the Journal. I could not bring myself to think it is true. But, if so, let Mrs, Harrison stop and think what an awful mistake has been made by putting the bottle to your neighbor's mouth. Just think, you with your honored husband, were placed at the head of our nation for what purpose? Was it, was it to deal out death and damnation to your fellow beings, who with yourself were created in the image of God? Alas I feel as if the name of Harrison is polluted. I had a dear brother of that name who would have died for the cause of temperance.

I am glad he is not alive to know that such an awful, disgraceful act took place in the executive mansion. Look back at the lovely example which Mrs. Hayes left you, and in the name of God, who has said 'Be ye clean who bear the vessels of the and in the name and for the sake of suffering humanity do, do let it be the last. Pardon me if you consider my language too strong, but you know nothing of the real intense agony which mothers, wives, sisters and children endure by this awful traffic. Will you, will you still continue to make drunkards while you read in your Bible that no drunkard shall enter the kingdom of heaven? I leave this with you.

Take it to the Lord in prayer. I am your friend Mrs. Please excuse this soiled paper; I can not find a clean one. THE OUTLOOK. Usually tne campaign oi on years closes with the election of those years This year proves an exception to the general rule.

Rather is the political ardor heated with the close of the November campaign of 1SS9, than cooled. The reason is apparent to every observ ing eye. The national policy of Presi dent Harrison went before the people for their endorsement for the first time Tne ratmcation ol tne mm tarm vic tory of '88 was to be an immense affair by Iowa, Ohio, New York and Massachusetts. The bugbear and menacer of American industry, tariff reform, was to be buried face downward forever. But the brilliant endorsement of national administration failed to materialize.

The protection to American industry, i. e. American trusts, Carnegie in the eyes of the people, failed to protect. The imprisonment of millions of the peopled money in the vaults of solitary confinement at tho nation's capitol, did not impress the people as the sort of elixir of national life to be injected into the arteries of business and trade. Nepotism, favoritism and sectionalism did not seem to be tho trio of christian graces necessary to the unification and peaceful brotherhood of this sisterhood of states.

Hence the failure to "ratify." The Iowan suffered his principle of right to throttle his spirit of party, and echoed the sentiments of the growing and mighty west, and placed her namo upon the roll of honor tariff reform in her own fine Italian hand. Ohio caught up the refrain and gave it such impetus that the "bean eater" was nearly swept off his feet by the force of its mighty pow er, tact it is saia tne "pressure'' of the storm was visible to the naked presidential eye from the observatory of the White House. The political atmosphere became so charged with the ozone of tariff reform that the protective wires of the White House have been practically unmanageble ever since. Hence this feeling of republican uncertainty, and the constantly increasing confidence of democracy.

Main St. The holiday season is upon us. The world at large has lain aside dull care and all have assumed an air of pleasure, Man is so constructed that seasons of rest and recreation are indispensible. The world is moving very fast, and that is only an evidence that the drain and muscle of man is being wrought to a higher tention. Without an occasional loosening of the tension, the physical forces would become overtaxed, and great ends become thwarted.

Therefore it is well for man not only to have one seventh of his time for physical recreation, but an extra holiday thrown in onco in awhile is of practical good. And if the other fifty-one weeks have been characterized by close application one entire week may bo consumed during the holiday season, without injury to business or man. In view of these facts it is well for this season of festivities for the children to embrace in its scope the entire population. Nothing can have a more salutary effect upon tho household than for the father to become the Santa of tho occasion, and mingle freely with the children. It lends dignity to the occasion, elevates tho minds of tho of the children, and somehow dispels the sternness that unconsciously steals in upon us with advancing years.

It lends suplenees to tho bending frame, adds new fire to dim eyes, and renders more vivid tho conception and discernment of the business and professional man. These provisions and arrangements are for our good, and their close observance will have a tendency to rather benefit us in every respect, than to prove detrimental in any case. Then let our holiday season be one of joy making to young and old rich and poor. The legislature of Ohio will convene in a few days. Both senate and house will have a snug working democratic majority.

The coming one is an important session. The election of a Uuited States senator will first engross the minds of the democratic members. The leading candidates are Calvin S. Brice, of Lima, and John H. Thomas, of Springfield.

Mr, Brice has won for himself a national reputation and is chairman of the national executive committee. He has a great many friends in Ohio, and will show 'great strength. Mr. Thomas is an extensive manufacturer, and has the confidence and support of every man that has ever been connected with him in business in any capacity. It is an item of great weight that Knights of Labor throughout the state are clamoring for his election.

By way of contrast, how many Labor assemblies have ever clamored for the election of an extensive manufacturer of any other state? Mr. Thomas is an avowed enemy of any legalized system of robbery, whether it bears the name of protective tariff or some other name. Thus he stands a recognized defender of the interests of the men who daily toil in his establishments. At this great distance it looks very much like Senator Thomas. A democratic governor will hold the reins at the state capitol to act in conjunction with the legislature.

Another service to be per formed by the Ohio legislature is to re-district tho state for congressional purposes. This will turn the scale as to congressional representation from that state. The democrats will be represented in the near future by not less than sixteen in the national congress, instead of five as now. That is, if the last redistricting of the republicans be taken as a criterion. At any rate look out for a howl from the g-.

o. p. when tho Ohio legislature begins to make the hair fly. mmmm That the center of population is rapidly traveling westward is apparent to the naked eye without so much as ref erence to statistics or census tables. That this is true is in keeping- with the eternal fitness of things.

Tho east is pretty well filled up as regards territory, professions and business. The real estate has fallen into the hands of those who are wedded to the homesteads of their fathers, and the young man and the poor man finds it out of the question to become the holders of real estate. Hence it is natural for I THE WORLD OAVES ME A LIVING. As we were walking up street the other night we heard one young man remark to another, "The world owes mo a living and I allow to have it." That is true; but you owe the world something as well. The world is like an individual.

It does not propose to support a person who will not hustle around a little and try to furnish a few of the extras. There is no law of nature that makes it incumbent upon the world or anything else to do for a man that which he can do for himself. If you are unable to perform manual labor sufficient to support yourself, the philanthropy of the world has furnished means whereby your actual necessities will be supplied. If you are able to work and refuse to do so on the pretext that the world owes you a living, you ought to suffer for it. The United States has over 60,000,000 people.

No two of these are constituted just alike. Each has a peculiar set of ideas. The views each two have a point of divergence some place. Though given their exist ence irom tne samo parents, reared in the same house, sheltered by the same friendly roof, rocked by the same gentle mother's hand, blessed with the same parental benedictions, when the thresh old of home is crossed the world is en countered for a subsistence, there wil be separate avenues selected. This difference of taste, these various incli nations are met by so many unexplored fields spread out by the Maker of the universe, and you are admonished -to pursue your inclinations with the posi tive assurance of success if your inclina tions lead to a laudable end.

Hence there is no use for idle hands. The heavens are full of unsolved mysteries, the earth teems with undreamed of treasures, the elements aro susceptible to much more minute analysis, and art is yet in its infancy; the coarser shades have only been added to her drawings; science yet carries the key to her great est benedictions, and tho trades and professions are yet in tho infancy of their achievements. All these are look ing to you, young man, crying for the touch of genius that will unfold to the race the ultimatum of their designed purpose. Yet with this unfinished condition of everything save crude matter, a 1 a i 1 mi-t you stand witn nanus ioided praying for something to do. No, you don't offer that prayer; you pray for something to do itself in such a way as to furnish you a small margin, and you will be content however small the margin, so you can realize a mere existence.

Why not wake up? No name has 3-et been written so high upon the pinnacle of fame but what some other will be written just above it. Now why not let yours be that name? "Oh, I can't, "you say. "Can't" never led Martin Luther through obstacles unreasonable for a sane man to contemplate. "Can't" never caused Alexander to and weep because there were no more worlds to conquer. "Can't" never helped Bonaparte to cross the Alps.

"Can't" never led Columbus to discover America. "Can't" did not assist the colonies in thrashing England. "Can't" did not make Lincoln tho rail-splitter, Lincoln the president. "Can't" never cleared forests, built cities, founded republics, invented steam appliances, railroads, telegraph, telephone, ad infinitum. No sir, young man, the world don't owe you half as much as you owe the world.

She has furnished you a subsistence through all these years of your worth less existence. Your fountain of gratitude has been crushed out. What you want to do is to say "I can," and then suit your, actions to your declaration and you will be surprised at the amount of work you can do. The old maxim, "When there's a will there's a way," i3 as true as Bible. Wake up to the realization of the fields of possibilities before you, and you may yet make the world the better for your having lived.

Don't waste your time in idleness and waiting for the world to dump p. living at your door or life will be a dismal failure. AN iaiPOSIKILITY. Under the above head line the Leav- en worth Times says: "Another new paper has been started in nntchinson. This makes, we believe, an even half-dozen papers published there.

This latest candidate for public favor is called the Would. In his salutatory tho editor announces that 'The World will be democratic, and I propose that it shall be run as a respectable and reputable newspaper; that it shall be clean and clear cut upon all matters of public interest, as it has no strings tied to it by any ring or combination, and will advocate at all times what it conceives to bo right without fear or favor. It can't be done. A "clean, respectable, reputable" newspaper wouldn't be democratic. Might as well talk about running a sweet smelling slaughter house.

The World starts off well. It is clean and all that its editor promises for it, but if it keeps up that gait it will not live. Democrats must have democratic fodder. We would be glad if The World could succeed in that field. It might do a good missionary work among Kansas democrats.

There is a long felt want for a decent democratic paper in Kansas," With the established reputation of the Times, the above comment is made ridiculous. If the Times had rebuked the frauds, thefts and plunder of its own political household, then it might with some degree of grace admonish the press of the opposite party to better things. But who ever heard the Times lift its voice and cry stop when its political family was prostituting. tho nation's fair fame by practicing the theft, more commonly known as the salary grab. Who heard the Times say stop rascal when the Star Route thieves were plundering the nation? How loud did the Times cry, "come down usurper," when Hayes took the seat stolen from Samuel J.

Tilden? Who heard the Times say: "expel the rascals," when tho Credit Mobilier was exposed? When did it ever say "stop thief," when its party robbed the na tion of her public lands, and squandered millions of her money for the benefit of corporations, combines and trusts. And to come nearer home, how often has the Times lifted her motherly voice in condemnation oi tne blocks oi pur chase in Indiana that made Harrison president of the United States? How often does she lecture her people to stop the legalized robbery that protects the rich and grinds into the dust the poor laborer of this country? Oh no. This is republican "fodder" and the poor cat tle must have it or they will die. It seems to us that a journal living in the atmosphere that must arise from this conglomerate mess of political putrefaction would not dare to sweeten his political coffee with the filth from the most revolting democratic "slaughter house" In the land. The World proposes to do just what it said in its first issue.

And in so doing we but simply comply with the first cardinal principle of the people's party the democratic party. THE COMING MAN. The problem of what shall be the sphere of usefulness for the "coming woman," having been solved, now tho world is asking, "what of the coming man?" This question, to us seems a pertinent one. The present woman by her industry and persistence has taken her place by her lord, man, and in view of all the surroundings it will not seem strange if she shall advance a pace in front in the near future. We do not mean to infer that tho opposite sex will ever lead in furnishing solutions to great problems of state, or in tho inauguration of great reformations, but in the ordinary affairs of every day life, to this sex do we look for a largo percent age of assistance.

The observant eye cannot fail to see that the number of girls in our shops, stores, offices, i n-1 1 is on tno increase, ine numuer ox available young men for places require-ing education and skill is not keeping pace with the increase of population and business. The reason too is apparent. Our girls have learned that every truo lady desires to earn the bread she cats. If not needed in the cares of tho household, she seeks and generally obtains a position that renders her self-supporting. Consequently.
