I think that some of the boys by their letters are considerably niistakenabout planting flags on Lookout Mountain. Now, I know what I am talking about, for I was there that is, I was there ou the 26th or on the 27th, when the fight was all over, and at a time when I was cool and unbiased, and could impartially form an opinion. As it was late when I arrived I stayed all night, and saw no "White Stars," except what I saw in the sky above. Early the next day, after breakfast and dinner, I ventured over to the peak of the mountain and looked down, and was surprised to see the clouds below me; but when the clouds broke away the beautiful Tennessee revealed herself, and glittered like a serpent from the bate of Lookout to the mountains of far-off North Carolina. As I had been detailed for duty in the "Old Basswood" Brigade some time before, and had helped the mules out of the mud between Bridgeport and Chattanooga, this transition tvas wonderful to me, and I took out my old pocket-book and sketched some of the surroundings.

While on the mountain I looked around and found the hole that the flagstaff of the 8th Ky. had made, the tariff reform, for which Cleveland avail the Major, who made up his mind expecting ber to break the first link of the great monopolistic chain which euvirous this country. Kausas is a renowned state in more than one way, but let ns make her still more renowned by breaking the first link of the monopolistic chain which will be the beginning of the monopolistic rule of this country. The restoration of the government to a government of the people and for the people can onlybe accomplished through the ballot box. The desired and necessary reforms must come by legislation, hence it is of the utmost importance to advance and elect to office only such men who can be trusted as being true to the cause of reform, and who believe in tho governmentof the people and by the people.

Can we trust the leaders of the dominant party of Kansas? The previous republican legislatures of this state positively refused to even listen to a single demand of the farmers. They refused to pass Stay Laws. Refused to pass a law for the reduction of the rate of interest. lief used to pass a law requiring a uuiform system of text books, and all other demands coming from the farmers and labors were treated contemptuously and rejected.

Did they leave the state and ring rule party because they could not get office at the hands of said party? We must put up new men, chronic office seekers will not Gil the bill.

The Grange admitted into its order politicians, wire pullers, chroDic office, seekers, anybody and everybody and this folly soon began to manifest itself. The politicians, wire pullers and office seekers soon began to push themselves to the front of the order which wrecked it. Hence let this be a lesson for the alliance and not permit the Arnolds and Benedicts to go to the front lest they wreck it. We cannot afford to run any risks in this matter.

Editor Kansas Faemeb: The time is rapidly approaching when the question of who shall represent Kansas in the United States Senate must be decided. Kansas being a purely agricultural State, it is vital that the man chosen to represent her in the Senate should be one who is in sympathy with all her agricultural interests, present and propective.
