i MUVK. almost ovory eoiinly Iu Kansas, ami Sedgwick Is not Ihu only county In which tlio pooplo nro becoming tired of so-eallcd Kopuldiean rule. It Is one tiling to ho a Itopuhllcuii from priueiplo, hut tpiiio another to ho Kcpuhlleun for Iho spoils of ollloo. Spoils-seekers generally put their voles where they think It will do them the most good, hut they sometimes miss tlio mark. Tub Commissioners of fiivonwood county liuvu uwarded tlio printing for tlio coming year to the F.meka tiroiliir, at hgal rales for the Ueliiiijueut tax-list, and olio-fourth rules lor tlio eoiinly printing.

Two of tlio Commissioners liuvu ueipiired sullleient slamlnu to break away from party precedent and favor the people, instead of tlio party, with tlio nhovu result. Thousands of dollars could ho saved in the same way hy every County Hoard in Kansas. WriKN rundidutu begins to wish that ho had not been nominated on tin straight tieket, it is evidence that still-w art ism is hemming unpopular. Tliird-termism, staiwiirtlsin, favoritism and olllelal nobility tiro way stations on the down grade to Ciesarisni, Nepotism uml Despotism, Tlie people are not running eandidales on that lino. Jay Could and oilier monopolists claim to own tin only trunk lines Unit run in that direction, hut will give their candidates 1ieo passes If required.

Mas. (JIch ('lull is about to create a political revolution in tins eoiinly. This will probably remind our renders of a familiar quotation: "Lei mu sing I lie songs of a people, etc." rnfoitiinalely for tin Republican straights, they nro in tins straits" both for singers and songs soiled to 111' occasion. We recommend that they sing tlio song that Dick bright sung in Indiana in INTI: Whi'ii yin! have a asl thina Saw II. save It: When eali'h a blnek eat Skill him to thi' tall.
