KANSAS PARMEES' UNHAPPY LOT, of noDUlur ignorance as the present century ends and the next one fceglns. People are writing to the news papers to And out, and If every newspaper should state the fact accurately a nuna .red timet a year from now till the nine teenth century 1b ended, every community would, still contain persona Insisting .that January 1, 1900, will mark the beginning ot the twentieth century. lt.would be an excellent thing If teachers in the public schools everywhere should take special pain to Impress on their pupils the fact that the new ceutury will not arrive tin .Tnnnarv 1. 1901. The lesson will need to ie repeated many times In order to make the. 'impression lasting. Terhaps state school superintendents might wisely Issue a oircular letter calling attention to this matter at an early date, The fBct of uot importpuce with re gard to the existing financial troubles o the government is that they are prlmar ily and principally attributable to Dam -ocratic iuoapaelty in the management public affaire. It is easy to give tech 4iloal reasons why this or that particular thing comes to pass in the current oper ations of the Treasury, but such expla nations should not be allowed to obsoure the original cause of the misfortune or to modify the responsibility of the party in power. The simple truth is that Dem ocratic rule is not conducive to tile pros perity of the country. It creates distrust, and embarrasses bnstuess, and depresses .all kinds of Industrie. ,Tbls Is not a inatter of conjecture or speculation, but f practical experience. The dlflioulty began soon after the present Administra tion came in, and It has continued ever vstnee That Is to say, at no time during that period has there been a feeling of perfect security.

To put in my timo I would fre quently go hunting for bears. Ono cool autumn day I took an cxnrese pony, a good rlllo nnd n pair of revolvers and started for tho foothills of Laramie peak. 1 roilo along until 3 o'clock in tho afternoon. Although I knew from the tracks ln tho snow that bears wore In the neighborhood, I had not succeeded In find ing niiy. Feeling hungry, 1 'shot u Bnge lien, tied my horso to n trco and built a fire, on which I procoedod to broil my chicken. After n good dinner nnd a short rest I started out again. ! AS jny frioud9 all know that I had gono out for boars, I thought thnt I would rather spond all night ln tho place than go back empty handed. 'Nicht camo on, nnd still no bears. I decided to camp out. Shooting a couplo more saco hens, I hunted up an empty nlnco in tho timber near a llttlo mountnln stream. Hero I dismounted.

Was ho, whlto or Indian, on honest man or o crookf That w as tho question I determined to solve boforo I let him know I was ln tho neigh borhood. So I tied my horso to a treo, nnd taking my rifio with me I cropt cnu tiously up tho stream.
