Opposes From Principle. In his speech at Topeka, last week, John J. Ingalls said: "Whatever Democrats favor, I oppose from principle." We would like to call the attention of our some of Senator Ingalls' admirers lo a few things that Mr. Ingalls opposes i "from principle." The following are from the Democratic platform: "The Democracy pledges itself to purify the administration from corrup-! tion Does Ingalls oppose such a commendable and much needed work? He says he does. "The Democracy pledges itself to reduce taxation to the lowest limit consistent with due regard to the preservation of the faith of the nation, to its creditors and pensioners." Is it possible that Ingalls can oppose such a redaction, "from principle." We have his word for it.

These things cannot be going on without the knowledge of Sells Bros; no such wholesale thievery can bo practiced in any circus without the proprietor's knowledge of it.

We hold that it is the duty of the government, in its dealings with'the people, to meet out equal and exact justice to all citizens." It seems to be contrary to the principle of Mr. Ingalls to favor justice. "We believe that the public lands ought, as far as possible, to be kept as homesteads for actual settlers." Oh, no, this would rob the thieves of the "fat role" they might otherwise receive from railroads for "services rendered." Of course Mr. Ingalls opposes this "from principle" "We believe that no more grants of land should be made to corporations." The majority of the peeple concur with the above, but Ingalls says he opposes it "from principle." As he is a Republican, he will have some support for his continuance in opposing the peo pie. He will be supported for the "party's sake, you know." Bessie, the beautiful and sweet little girl of Mr.

When lie arrived at the elevator, he took the road leading to the river and followed it nearly to Markley's mill. This was about dark. The little chap was not missed by his parents 'till about bed time, and upon inquiry it was discovered he had not returned. A search was immediately made. Many men, each carrying a lighted lantern, searched high and low, far and near, and could not trace him farther than the vicinity of Markley's mill, where his tracks in the mud indicated he had started back.
