On tho formal ballot In the separate houses of tho Ohio legislature Senator Hanna recdvcd sufficient votes to elect bml as his own successor on Joint ballot, 1 "the total number received being 73, ex actly enough for that purpose. There is' no reason for believing tfiat Mr. Hanna will lose any of these votes before the Joint ballot 16 taken, and It Is now rc : garded as certain that the credit and honor of the Republican? of Ohio, that Iraltors in the camp sought to bring re proach upon, will 'be vindicated. It Is more probable that Mr. Hanna will gain . votes on the Joint ballot than that he : will lose any. The public is so familiar with all the / circumstances of the remarkable contcst ,that it is unnecessary*to review them . here. The conspiracy that formed lm r mediately after the November election, In which those who violated the faith , /that their constituents had reposed In them entered Into a disgraceful deal with tho enemies of the Republican par ? ty, a corrupt crowd of Popocratic poli ticians, has already received a ringing rebuke from the betrayed and outraged Republicans of the state, and it was doubtless the spontaneous uprising in every quarter of the state in protest against this treachery that sav&d the disgraceful compact from being carried out The Republicans and friends of sound currency, throughout the country, "will rejoice that the conspiracy, which Involved so much that is important to the Nation, and wihch would tighten ?tie dishonest money advocates' grip in. the senate, has so far failed, and that the conspirators who have sought to defeat the will of the Republican party of Ohio are put to rout. The personality of Mr. Hanna, the cho sen candidate of the party for the posl ; tion of United.States senator, was lost sight of In the contest for the vindication of a.broad principle Involving party in tegrity, and the proper representation on national issues of the majority 6f the people of Ohio, and it is fortunate for the 6tate which gave to the country Its Pres ident, elccted upon a platform declaring for the financial honor and credit of the Nation, that not only has the principle so far triumphed, but that the 6haft . which was aimed at the Republican ad ministration by vindictive enemies with in the ranks has so far fallen short of Its' mark. The Republicans of Ohio are entitled to congraulations that there are appar ently enough men in the legislature cor rectly representing them to prevent the > commission of a political crime which would bring upon them the humiliation that had been prepared'for them by the most unholy and disgraceful alliance that the history of party politics in this country has ever witnessed. Mr. Hanna, personally Is entitled to congratulations that, In spite of the viillflcation and slan V4- ders of partisan enemies and disappoint ed leaders in his own party, his confi dence in the faithfulness of the majority of the Republicans has not been mis placed. If the lines formed in the balloting by the separate houses holds until the Joint ballot Is taken, Mr. llanna will be his own successor, and it will be many a year before such an attempt to defeat the willl of the voters will be again wit nessed In the state of Ohio. A StrikingOlijcct Y.rnaoit, The business men of Kansas arc dis tributing throughout the country a cir cular containing a recapitulation of the report of rhe secretary of the state board of agriculture, which shows the remark ably prosperous condition of the state this year. It tells an eloquent story of the wholesome state of affairs existing at present In Kansas, and Is in marked contrast with the conditions of the years previous. It fully explains why the ca lamity-howl has ceased among Kansas farmers. The circular contains an itemized statement of tho quantities and values of the agricultural products of 1S97, and shows tho amount of mortgage Indebt edness which has been cancelled. since prosperity set In. This showing carries With it a strong evidence of the fallaoy of the arguments that were made a little more than a year sinco to sustain the peculiar financial theories of the Populistlc school of politicians that seemed to thrive better In Kansas than : In any other state. The showing made by the report Is t notable that we quote the summary <ir> follows: Yalues of Products. iWintcr and spring wheat 5 34.:<sr>.304 Corn 28,MS,203 Oats 3.S2S.1H2 Ityo DM,821 Barley 2(12,753 Buckwhcat 7,872 ;JrlHh and sweet potatoon 2,G44,COl Castor-beans * 4(1,G27 ' 3-Uax MO,105 Cotton 4,220 3-1 omp 4,180 Tobacco , 17,200 JHroottX'Marn ?

Tla onormoua total of values omljracea "twenty-four varieties of 'agricultural products and Ave kinds of live stock, the greatest quantities 6f products' being the crops of wheat, G1,G2G,G04 bushels; corn, 152,140,1103 bushels; vye, 23,431,263 bushels; Irish and sweet potatoes, 5, 342,ISO bushels; coton, 1,198,882 pounds; broom corn, 10,418,180 pounds; wool, clip, 702,164 pounds. The remainder of the products were In smaller quantities, making up the total values as shown lu the table. It will be remembered that 1n the argu ments that were adduced from the condi tions In Kansas by the calamity ellver ltes great stress was laid upou the al leged fact that the state was mortgage ridden, and that the farm?rs were groan ing under a mountain of debt, for which the gold standard wat held responsible, while the "money power'* was held up as the vampire that was sucking the life blood from the agricultural Interests of the state. Free silver, it wne held by Mr. Bryan, of Nebraska, and the Papullstlc statesmen who were the principal pro ducts of Kansas when other crops were scant, was the only remedy that would cure the Ills. Nature and Nature'? law of supply and demand had nothing to do with It. The situation was wholly due to the wicked gold standard and a lack of cheap money.' When the sound money men declared that there was plenty of money, and all that was needed was bountiful crops and a demand In the market for them to bring the money into the agrlcultural.reglons of the west, good prices for products and prosperity for the farmer, the claim was encored' at, and even to this day Sir. Bryan is j setting up the absurd claim that the ag ricultural communities are no better off j than they were eighteen months ago. J In Kansas alone the enormous value of?the crops, and the great demand for them at good prices, give the lie to these ! calamity walls, and every clajm made by the 60und money advocates has been | verified by the fact that there Is no latjc ( of money among the farmers, due to the demand for their.produets and their re- ; celpt of good one hundred cent dollars for them, while silver's price is far be- i hind in the race with the price of wheat. The deposits in the banks have been largely Increased, andythe report of the 6tate hank commissioner of Kansas, which is Incorporated in the circular re ferred to, shows that the Indebtedness cancelled ha3 been 530,000,000, of which 525,000,000 represent mortgages lifted and $5,000,000 represent notes in bank that have been paid. "What is true of the state of Kansas Is 'true of the other great agricultural states of the west, where the cheap money demagogus found the richest field for the propagation of their theories during the hard times, and where the natural laws of trade have demonstrated the ut ter absurdity of the claim that an ab sence of cheap money was the cause of the ills that were complained of. The flow of money into the west as the result of the operation of these laws has been suf ficient answer to the demagogues, while the farmers have been made to see how near they came to "becoming the victims of too much faith in the demagogic argu ments of financial quack3. v In view of the grand total of $230,410, 143, which represents the value of the crops and farm animals at the end of the year 1S97 in this one state; in the handsome bank balances, and the pay ment of 530,000,000 of indebtedness, all in one hundred cent dollar?, good the world over, the people of Kansas have time to reflect upon how much worse off they would have been If the dangerous and absurd financial arguments of the finan cial theorists had prevailed. General Manager Burt, of the Ohio River railroad, says that West Virginia is getting what she voted for, and points to the fact that the railroads in the state are rushed with business as evidence of the truth of his remark. :Mr. Burt is right, and it is such testimony as this that counts against the calamity agita tion which Mr. Bryan i3 vainly striving to revive since his return frOiji Mexico. Mr. Bryan should make a tour of his own country, and learn how far behind date he Is. Judging from the lively Interest that has been excited among the Democratic papers in the state over the announce ment by Congressman Dayton that he will stand for a renominatlon* ttjls year, and the efforts.heing made hy them to convince their readers that the Second district representative hasn't a ghoft of ashow, It Is apparent that the Demo cratic editors do riot regard Mr. Dayton as being any more of a "Joke" than he was in 1S94 and 1S9C. Mrs. Nack. gets fifteen years In the penitentiary, which Is little enough, and her partner in crime is expressing regret that he was granted a stay of the death sentence, In his own .case,-saying.that he wants to die without delay. The In difference exhibited "by this precious pair as to their fate raises a doubt as to whether or not the penalties Inflicted upon them arc really to 'be regarded as punishments. _'' A South Carolina,.colored farmer.be came dissatisfied with the lease of the farm he was cultivating, and moved away, thus breaking his contract. A mob of neighbors followed1 him and strung him up. That was carrying the lynching fever to an extreme. If there Is justice in South Carolina every member of the mob will be prosecuted for murder. It Is not plear.unt for-Americans to re fleet that the number of lynchings in this country during the yoarjunt closed was 193. That was just It'.'Moo many.

And the babies caper 'round him And the colts aro klckln high, When the wheat Is In the granary And the prices reach tho sky.

A part of the plan might be feasible, a conven tion of tho peoples' representatives,but not called by the state committee. I am opposed to handicapping tho commlttco in any sons? with their work, as I think it would have a tendency to, should they have any part In this call, wiiy not have tho various candidates announce themselves for the position so that the public may lenow who they are, as well as a chosen few. Every man qualified for the position has that divine right to enter the free-for-all race. One part of .Mr. Mason's views I am heartily In accord with, that tho masses of the people must be consult ed to win. It is only by this method t&at the lease of power now attained by the Republicans can be prolonged. T. T. MAXWELL. Valloy Grove, Jan. 10. IN WEST VIRGINIA' Business is Thriving?The Good Results of McKInley's Election. A New York special to tho Pittsburgh Dispatch of yesterday says: "Colonel R. A. Burt, of West Virslnia, is one of the leading railroad men of his state. Besides being the general manager of the Ohio River railroad system-He Js vice president of two smaller roads,'and now is building a new line, which will run from New Martinsville and Clarks burg to the center of the state. Colonel Burt was one of the West Virginia Sound Money Democrats,- who voted and worked for the election of McKin ley. ^ "We are now benefiting from the re sult of that election," he said to a .Dis patch reporter. "Conditions neve^'have been so good in West Virginia as'they now are. Everyone has money, and the railroads cannot haul all of the freight offered to them. There Is only one dif ficulty, and that is the famine in freight cars. We cannot get them fast enough. The Ohio River Railroad sys tem is to West Virginia what the New York Central and Hudson River rail road is to New York state, and every bit of the rolling stock that can be put to that purpose is being used for haul ing freight. -"A little over a year agoihe people of West Virginia were poor. They were in debt all around. Now everyone seems to have money tyid the men who were borrowers a year or so ago are now de positors In the banks. That was-what we voted for in November, 1896."^ State of Ohio, City of Toledo, Lucas County, ss. Frank J. Cheney makes oath that he is the senior partner of the firm of F.
