A HTRONQ ciTort is being made to
prevent Flynn from getting on the
ticket with McKinley.
The race for county offlce 1b aBsum-
ing largo proportions. Candidate Ran-
dolph has bought himself a cigar.
That low rumbling sound is noise
made by the office of congressional
delegate keeping tab on Dick Morgan.
Dick Morgan has just had his pic-
ture taken. It had to bo dono in two
parts in order to work in tho whisker
effect.
The report that tho hotel Leo at Ok-.
.. laho'm
City was Bold Ib not true. The
nr prospective buyers it seems visited
Guthrie before closing the deal.
'.' S.kweklebs watorlcsB spriukleBs
Guthrlo baB taken her lofting iron in
hand and goes to tho links ready to
' play the game out if it takes all sum-
mer It is Bald tho president refuses to
tako action on tho charges filed
against Indian Agent Mltschcr of tho
OBago Nation until after the adjourn-
ment of congress.
SpeAtcing of Flynn tho poetic fancy
turns once more to Fegan's immortal
epic "I'm tho King of Oklahoma yes
1 am." Mr. Fegan's odo should bo
read at every campllro when the free
homes mortgages are burned.
Sid Clarice has worked the.halter
off his head and tho gaiters off his
feet and neighs and kicks wildly as
he scampers over the greeu voldtof
hiB opinions. IIo says Flynn is a
statesman. Mr. Sidney always was a
giddy yearling.
The city council without consulting
$tho wishes of the people is proceeding
f-with the city hall proposition. Since
the taxpayers must pay for this city
building they are entitled to know
something of the council's intentions.
?It .x understood that plans for a city
building have been drawn and all ar-
VTangemonts made for construction. Ab
jwo understand it the council proposes
to tie up tho city for 30 years have a
.building put up and pay 15 per cent
interest on an investment which no
one but interested parties understand.
"Is there a graft in this? Why so much
secrecy?
W r XHJC SITUATION AT MANILA.
General Otis says the islands of the
Philippines are "pacified." If this is
jso'why are 70000jtroops kept there? If
the' rebellion" is at an end by all
..'means let tho soldiers who are expos-
edHo a pestiferous climate be reclaled
Mind given a chance to breathe tho
ihealthful air of home. But Otis Ib
jnot telling the truth. He has sailed
. feior home but he has left 110 military
military garrisons north of Manila
and 04 south of that city.
-This does not seem to indicate an
encouraging condition of pacification
If all the "best elements" are "frlend-
.jly".Y?hy is it necessary to maintain
210 military posts? As a matter of
.jfact Luzon is 'about the same size as
"the Btato of Pennsylvania and has
-probably a million less population.
There are 6lxty-seven counties in
MPennaylvania and to occupy the state
' iln military way as Luzon Ib held
udown would necessitate two garrison-
ed military posts In every county in
the state with seventy-four ove-
.Awhich would allow half a dozen tnlli-
tary strongholds in each of the more
.populous counties. But besides thiB
force scattered over the country
XinsLuzon garrison of 5000 is
mim tailed in Manila with a large
eStH ad about the port. The
niedbf thfe -trmy of 70000 we have in
the Philippines is therefore apparent.

GL.OUK SIGHTS.
From the Atchison Globe.
Tho best tree in a yarn is always in
the poorest location.
It is always easier for any woman
to ploaso a man than tho one who is
marrio to him.
Probably no one ever mourned for
the dead in a manner satisfactory to
his faiends.
If a young man is late ho is accused
of letting his lovo grow cold and af-
ter he is married it Ib his dinner.
The Btories that end with declaring
that "they lived happily ever after"
were evidently written tho day after
the marriage.
It is horrible but tho woman who
holds up hor Bkirts at a crossing is
sometimes known to forget (herself
when she has a rainy skirt on.
Wo have noticed that after a woman
passes 40 when she wants to attract a
man's attention she gives him a vic-
ious puuch (while a younger woman
will glvo him a scared nudge.
An Atchison woman does not object
to her husband taking Christian Sci-
ence treatment but as most of the
healers are women she insists on hav-
ing him tako absent treatments.
An Atchison woman whose husband
has been flirting will shortly bring
suit against the other woman laying
the damages at 830. She refuses to
sue for more claiming it would Hatter
her husband.
QUAKER KEVLECTIOKS.

No woman is so friendless that she
hain't some one to tell secrets to.
Perhaps it is because self-preservation
is the first law of nutnre that
women make up.

COUNCILMKN FIGHT.
A Free For All Comes Near Uelnp tho
Kcsult.
The city council was an unusually
interesting body laBt night. What
might have been a big free-for-all
fight was suppressed by the city mar-
shal who was present.
The council had almost finished its
routine work and was considering or-
dinances. The salary ordinance was
up and some hot things were said.
The consideration resulted in striking
out the enacting clause which killed
it. Hewitt was conducting a fight on
reducing tho salaries. Here Ib where
the strife commenced. The sewerage
franchise was called up and a motion
to lay: it on the table carried. The
chairman of the public improvement
committee moved to r3consider and in
talking on hiB motion took occasion to
skin so to speak tha.city administra-
tion in an awful manner. The editor
of the Daily Capital was an especial
subject of the speech. The speech
irritated the members somewhat and
when he got through a motion to
adjourn was made and seconded. The
ayes and nays were taken and the
mayor declared the session adjourned.
Councilman Hewitt approached the
mayor with a criticism on his gag rule
and said some things distasteful to
which Saunders objected by slapping
Hewitt in the face. The city marshal
interfered and quieted the row.
From the opening of the session all
the members were feeling grouchy and
took turn about saying mean things.
Wheu the motion was made to strike
out the enacting clause ot the salary
bill Perkins objected. His point was
that it would kill the ordinance and
he did not want to see that done.
