If Ed Hoch will just lei us know what ho wants we will try and fix it all vlht. This suspenifl is got tint? to bo dreadful Council Grove Republican AU riaht we will lot you know.

We want the Republican party to enfonnrt. henanse wo believe that through it the people will come nearer ideal covemment than through any other organ'z ition. We want Republicans to save all hoir ammunition for the common ene my, and not waste any of its fijhting iaaidothebrofiHtworks. We want the eclrish scramble for place ar.d pelf which is tho bane of all parties, reduced to the minimum in ours. We want patriotism and love of country rather than love of power and a hankering for loavos and fishes to characterize our party more and more.

We want the ablest, cleanest, most unselfish men iu our ranks sent as delegates to an early state convention, not to satisfy the work of a lot of "fixers," but to tax the aggregate wisdom of a party in constructing the best poosible platform, and nominating the bast possiole ticket. We want the say what it rreans and moan what it says. We don't want it to contain all the drift wood that has been washed ashore by the waves of domagoguery and political' idiocy, but we want it to be a short, ringing Republican platform. Then we want every man and woman who loves this fair state, regardless of past political predelictions, but eepec ially every Republican, to spare no legitimate effort necessary to redeem ibis state from the grip of the bociai- ists and Anarchists and boodlers into whose unholy clutches it has fallen. That'i what we want.

Marion Rec ord. IS THIS TRUE? "It is not generally known" says the "that Wirz, the Andersonville prison demon, who was hung for violating the laws of civ ilizod warfare in starving thousands of Uaion soldiers, was the father-in-law of Hoke Smith, the present Commissioner of Pensions. The latter seemed to have imbibed Wirz' hatred for thu defenders of the Sued His Bondsmen. Mr. John Keenan of Lyndon, was in this city this week serving papers on Sheriffs wishers bondsmen of his first term in office.

This is the result of an attachment suit under which the sheriff attached and sold soma lumber at Overbrook We are informed that Britt Gillmor'. of that place had issued a chattel mort gage on their lumber stock to Mr. T. Gillmore tha well known cattleman oi this county, for money which he ad vnnood them. Britt ia a son in-law and Giilmore the son of T.

M. Giilmore. fhe aeriff attached the stock and sold wrule mortgaged, and now T. M. G'Umore brings suit against the Sheriff ud his bondsman to recover $1,000 the amount of the mortgage.

Uader the the Coronor should serve papers tho Sheriff and hli bondsman, but Ex -Coroner Speacer has turned over of his office and wa are told Mr. is of Crixiadale, elected by the t'jpmists, Jims no; qualified so we are wiiaauta Crotur and Judga Thorn a-spniafcad Mr. Kjenanforthe pur- poaa of serving thoae papers.

Thoro is little if any dangor of their losing anything in tho end cn this, iongh they may be to soaia trouble. e.ill Swish -ir before attaching ant required the plaintiffi to put uo an iademaifying band, oa which is raspoDBule banker of the county, and this boud is to stial between tho Sncr -U'a bondsman and harm. The suit ill probably corns off tbn next term th District Court. Barlingama Willis Opdvke's house was consumed oy fire last Friday morniug. Most of hoioh jid goods were saved, Mel-Torn note.

When you aro not accustomed to handlicg them g-old coius aro a nuisance. They aro so apt to be mistaken for wins of baser metal and smaller denominations, to the impoverishment of tho individual who makes the blunder. I still retain vividly painful recollections of an occasion wheu in London I paid a cabman a sovereign under the impression that it was a shilling-. The cabman had a coutract to drive mo a certain distance every night, but I never clapped my eyes on him again. Ho evidently wasn't a hog.

He was satisfied with what he had made out of the contract and was willing to give some of the other cabmen a chance. I have no doubt that duriug the brief period recently when so many houses paid off in specie because they couldn't get bills many careless persons let gold slip through their fingers under the impression that it was silver or niclcel. One instance camo under my own observation. A friend had just received his week's pay in 85 gold pieces, and I Improved the opportunity to tell him my experience with the London cabman, at which he laughed heartily. Then, being something of a cigarette fiend, he sought the nearest cigar store for the means of indulgence in his favorite vice.

He thrust a hand into one of his pockets, tossed what he thought was a nickel on the counter and strolled out of the shop. I shall always patronize that cigar dealer hereafter when I get a chance. It didn't take him five seconds to decide that he preferred a nickel with a clear conscience to $5 without it My London cabman had been trained in a different school. POOR HOPKINS. But nil Dying Moments Were Soothed by a Kindly Kurse.

A Portland physician tells the fol lowing story, premising it with the remark tnat nurses in the LondoD hospitals are rather apt to lay too much stress on the advantages received by the patients and to remind them of the duty of thankfulness. Sometimes the patients do not appreciate thoir good fortune. This from a Loudou hospital related by tho physician above indicated is a case in point: Chaplain So poor Hopkins is dead! should have liked to spoak to him once again and soothe his last mo-meuts. Why didn't you call me? Hospital Orderly I didn't think you ought to be disturbed for 'Opkins, sir.so I just soothed Him as best I could myself. Chaplain Why, what did you say to him? Orderly says "you're mortal bad." "lam," sez'ee.

sez "I don't think you'll get better." 'No," sez 'ee. sez "you're going fast "Yes," sez'ee. sez "I don't think you can 'ope to go to 'eaven." "I don't tiiink I can," sez 'ee. "Well, then, 'Opkins," sex "you'll go to 'ell." "I suppose so," sez'ee. sez "you ought to be wery grateful as there's a place perwided for you, and that you've got somewhere to go" And I think 'ee heard r.e av t.hfin "e5 Jlci LegcuU of the Who ever heard it said that the looking-glass was first invented to spite a pretty woman? And how would it be possible to spite a woman by showing her a perfect reflection of her own dainty self? Well, according to Japanese mythology, the deity presiding over tha sun and furnishing light to the world became infuriated ttt some trifle and hid herself away in cave, thus depriving humanity of a very necessary element Iu order to induce her to coma out the mirror was invented and placed in the cave.

Tho beautiful goddess seeing another beautiful goddess within those narrow confines, Immediately departed, and the people took care that never again should she enter the precincts of a cave. And so the most valued of woman's treasures was invented for spit, but for what a different purpose haa served. Immi Carriage Painting.

Equal with the interest of those having claims against the gorercrnent is that of who often lose the benefit of valuable inventions because of the incompetency or inattention of the attorneys employed to obtain their patents.

Too much care cannot be exercised in employing coiimctent and reliable solicitors to procure patents, for the value of a patent de pends greatly, if not -nr4iv upon the care and skill of the attorney. the view of protecting inventors from worthless or careless attorneys, and of seeing that inventions are well protected by valid patents, wo have retained counoel expert in patent practice, and therefore are prepared to Obtain Patents in tha United States and all Foreijn Countries, CcncJitcfc Interferences, Make Special Examinations, Prosecute Rejected Cases, Register Trade-Marka and Copyrights; Render Opinions as to Scope and Validity of Patents, Prosecute and Defend Infringement Suits, Etc.
