Committee Meeting.
The Republican County Central
committee is hereby called to meet at
the Court House in the City of Wa-
Keeney, on August 9, 1902, at 1 o'clock
p. m., for the purpose of transacting
any business which may properly
come before it. A full turn-out is re
quested, as important business will
come before the meeting, i :
The following persons comprise the
committee:
Ogallah T. S. Howe
Collyer F. Schwanbeck
"Willcox J. F. Gunckel
"Wa-Keeney A. S. Peacock
Riverside W. B. Cypher
Franklin i Otto Young
Glencoe D. J. Wilson
H. S. Givleb, Chairman.
Mr. Craddock, the Democratic can
didate for governor, has started in to
make himself the paramount issue in
the coming campaign. He claims
that he should be elected governor
because he will reduce taxation. He
lias written letters and printed pam
phlets setting forth the theory that
the people should vote for him and
Bave money. Unfortunately for Mr.
Craddock, he has a record. A little
over a year ago he was elected mayor
of Kansas City, Kan., by jusc such
t ilk and promises as he is making
now to the people of the state at
large. He has been mayor for over a
year. In these letters and circulars,
Mr. Craddock attempts to show that
lie has been a good mayor, and, there
fore, ought to be governor, but the
records in the city clerk's office at
Kansas City, Kan., very strikingly
contradicts these claims.
Mr. Craddock's administration has
not only increased the assessed valua
tion of property in Kansas City, Kan.,
but has actually increased the tax
levy for the operating expenses of the
city. He has tried to fool the people
by neglecting to levy for sinking-fund
and for judgment fund, thereby leav
ing uncared for a large indebtedness
of that city which bears a high rate
of interest. Any citizea who has to
do even with school district affairs
knows that the failure to make levy
to provide for a debt does not pay the
debt. The revenue raised in Kansas
City, Kan., under the first year of
Mayor Craddock's administration was
over $15,000 greater than the year pre
ceding. Mr. Craddock spent not only
t :is but Increased the floating indebt
edness of the city $22,354.98. Most of
this increased expense was made in
the police department, which cost
about $9,000 more under him than the
year preceding. He enlarged the po
lice force to make places for Demo
cratic hapgers-on, and, in this connec
tion, it should be added that when he
increased the police force he increas
ed the number of licensed joints, one
of the latter being located within one
block and a half of the high-school
building, and this in the face of the
earnest protests of the people.
Mr. Craddock's methods of dealing
with the corporations of Kansas Citj,
Kan., is an illustration of bis states
manship. He liad promised the peo
ple that he would see that their as
sessment was raised. He did. this,
but first made an agreement with
them that the levy should be reduced
so that they would have no more
taxes to pay than they had before.
He then refused to make any levy to
meet judgments and for sinking-fund,
and thus kept his agreement with the
corporations, and, at the same time,
thought he bad fooled the people.
It is noticeable that one of Mr.
Craddock's first acts, after becoming
mayor of Kansas City, Kan., was to
have his own salary as mayor increas
ed from $1,000 to $2,000 per year. As
mayor, he lias increased expenses, in
creased joints, increased the police
force, increased the city debt, and de
creased nothing, except the estima
tion in which his promises are held by
the people, upon which his election
was based. Capital.
"If drinking interferes with your
business, quit yoor business." The
foregoing words appear on a placard
displayed in a Great Bend saloon.
They are sarcastic to the most super
lative degree and contain a temper
ance lecture more pointed and con
vincing than for many a day has been
heard in this town. The proprietors
of that place are very long time peo
ple of the county and know every
bony, in the shortest cut manner
possible they say by this placard to
each patron of their place: "If your
business is hurt by your drinking,
quit drinking." We understand that
one one man has already profited by
reading that placard. Great Bend
Register.
Kansas papers are taiKing ot pro
gressive teachers who are now attend
ing summer schools for the purpose of
attaining greater efficiency in their
profession The school teachers don't
have the best time in the world. For
nine months in the year they are
cooped up with a lot of willful chil
dren that can hardly be managed
by their parents; and then when va
cation comes and the children have
three months in which to think up
new kind of devilment for the next
term, the teachrr has to put in the
hot summer months at a snmmer
school. Topeka Herald.
Whjle Americas population has in
creased about five fold during J,he last
century,"the productive power of that
population has increased about forty
fold. Man for man, industrially con
sidered, the American is twenty-five
years ahead of the Englishman, who
in turn is far ahead of his European
neighbor. At this rate, in 1920 there
will be 110,000,000 Americans, with a
working power equal to all the 350.

probably contain. Chicago Inter-

The Anti-Fusion Law.
The Democrats in asking the Pop-
olists to join them in making their
state ticket, assured the latter that
the anti-fusion law would be declared
unconstitutional by the supreme court
and promised the Populists that
both tickets would be submitted to
the secretary of state and in case lie
refused to recognize both of them (as
he would have to do) they would im
mediately bring suit in the supreme
court to test its validity. This in face
of the fact that the majority of their
leading lawyers declared that the law
could not be beaten. The Democrats,
however, used this to bring the Popu
lists into line. Now that this has
been done and no suit has yet been
brought they are attempting to hola
the Populists in line by saying that
it would be useless to bring it up now
as the majority of the members of the
supreme court are Republicans, and
would therefore upheld it. Let it
alone until after the campaign and
thus use it for campaign issue. And
the Pops can't prevent it. The party
has been delivered bodily into the
Democratic camp.
As far as the anti-fusion law is con
cerned the Democrats were as active
in passing it as Republicans. They
realized that it would be a decided
gain to their party and that by it
they could control the Populists. No
legal proceedings will be instituted
but as long as there is a remnant of
the Populist party who stand up for
their principles, there will be a lot of
Democrats who will offer consolation
to them by abusing the law and invit
ing them into the Democratic camp.
The trouble is the Democrats can't
deliver the goods and the Populists
are beginning to find it out. Great
