It is of immense use to politicians on the etump, while the rural editor delights to tell his bucolic readers what the people exacted from King John at Runymede. The whole story is plain enough in history, but in the popular mind is really one of the fables of the day. In fact nothing was conceded to the people. They asked Dothing. They were simpjy serfs, without known rights, and too much subdued to understand that they could have any or J.

his nobles. It was the barons who exacted the Magna Charta from the craven tyrant It was done simply in the interest of the nobility. The quarrel was between the King and his nobles, and tne nobles won. Then followed farther infringement upon the royal prerogative. It was then that the King recognized the people and sought their aid against farther aggression from the nobles.

The House of Commons was then instituted and the people given some recognition. It was not long, however, before royalty and the nobility were again in harmony. But the people had been given a taste of liberty aud from that time forward their hopes and demands increased. Thus popular liberty was born in a desire to restrain aristocratic encroachment upon royal prerogative. It was not from any desire or willingness to increase the liberities and the happiness of the people.

All that has been conceded to the people since that time has been given grudgingly. Neither Kings nor American Aristocratics, or mow properly American political plutocrats, ever yield to the people one single measure that is cot forced from them, if such measure is calculated to equalize the rights of rnan-The people fight for all they have.

I Only studio in Lawrence making tin types. Geo. Shank, Lawrence, Kansas. C.

A. Benson of Leavenworth, charged with the murder of Mrs. Metman, was found guilty. As the crime was committed on the reservation, and the trial was by the U. S.

Court, He will probably hang The verdict in the ca9e of the royal English gambler was whitewash by the jury, but by the people at home and abroad the verdict is that the royal Prince of Wales is about an equal of one of our border three carde monte men. And this royal gsmbler and horse jockey is some day to be king of England, if the people are weak and foolish enough to permit it. Mrs. Helen Gougar does not go into the people's party, because it did not formally endorse prohibition, which she believes, and correctly too, to be the cause of much of the poverty of our country. Others who are just as strong prohibitionists as she is, do go into it be-canse they believe unnecessary poverty to be the cause of intemperance.

Both are riirht aud both are sincere. Nothing is clearer thaa the idea that whiskey must be abolished before or at least along with reform. When Kansas was giving 80,000 republican majority and no thanks to any one, there were very'fewpenslons granted to Kansas soldiers. It was at the Alliance state convention last year the fact was shown that pensions were largely granted to soldiers in the doubtful states like Indiana, and very few to the strong republican states like Kansas. Investigation showed that it was true.

Last fall Kansas became exceedingly doubtful, and now it will be noticed the pension list immensely increased. This is just. The veterins deserve it all, but they will probably consider that they are entitled to all they get, and will not feel that they hare been bribed to support the republican party. It would really be reasonable if they resented the delay that has been forced upon them. The people's party will be found as liberal with the old soldiers in the way of pensions, besides having a general policy that will give them a chance in the world equally with the money oligarchs.

ChaunceyM Depew, aloud-mouthed railroad Republican, made a tour of the West to take a fair look at the Farmers' Alliance and other farmer organizations with his weather eye and report to Wall street the result. He has done so and says the farmers' organizations are the result of three years of short crops and inability to pay interest and taxes in consequence thereof. is the evolution of despair, to use his words. He thinks now there will be a monster crop in this country and a famine abroad that will enable farmers to extort big prices from suffering Europeans and thus will come relief and these dangerous organizations die out, but what about similar organizations in Europe? Mr. Depew fails to care for foreign distress; indeed he seems to rejoice over any amount of misery abroad if it shall result in temporary relief here.

How little such rock-hearted egotists care for facts. Why it is only a year ago that crops were so abundant the Republican organ of Iowa, advised all the farmers to burn their corn, and yet Depe says crops have failed for three years. He pays the farmers this compliment, "While farmers are the hardest to move in such matters, their intelligence and staying power make them the most dangerous factor in a new organization. This is good, the farmers of the United States a dangerous class. Yes they are dangerous to the puff balls of aristocracy like Gould, Depew engaged in the genteel task of robbing them and we trust they will stay, until that class of men hunt their holes and beg for paraon of their sins.
