In their recent: convention they fnund time to assure youths nnd maidens thut the amount of poison or drug that young men would come in con tact with when kissing rouged coun tenances would not cause any harm. The druggists also volunteered the information that the reformers' cam paign had not hud any appreciable ef fect upon rouge sales. When all is said and refuted, the effects of kissing remain a.1 tremen dous ami perilous as ever; but Nature, not rouge, is re-ponsible. Ohio boasts that the millennium has rome.

Who is Barney? Well, Barney Sheridan Is the Hroh Democrat of Kunsus. Thut ih not ex- uctly why he, Is growing old graceful ly, for we choose to believe this can he ascribed to his strong character. ' At one time he was lhc only Demo cratic editor In that state, hut he stuck. He was invariably chairman of the fjemiK'nitic state convention, for, at Jimrs, there was but a cor. pond's guard present and he acquired the position through the fuet tha he tooted the party mouthpiece and there fore should have recognition. Barney never sought office. He wus too wi-e for (hat. llii did knock down' u few good receiverships when Cleveland was in power, and he had the gumption to take the fat receiv ers fees and improve his paper, buy a tew, lunches, and u little good whis key., ' Ifurney Sheridan never did take to the prohibition luws of Kunsns with ony degree of enthusiasm, but he is a man with wonderful nilnntiiliilil v niul V'nnllv liinH nm lmi(p iilirni,y in L JlV-him a few days ago at Pa- Kii, his home, where he has been jirinlmj, (i ( W(,t,k nem ppcr-the W,tei.n Sl)irisfor W(,Hi wt. wont attempt t ,)W , , we helleve since John u,,,wn lU.f(,n(w Ahe Kansas bonier Quatrel.s tiMd.

When wci asked Ilnrnev why he did not move, he said now listen to this hit of his vocabulary: "Well, I don') wnnt to move now; hi fact, I could not move for I have grown to believe that in this fenrful, fast epoch a fel llow must grab the winning hand in the poker game of life before he is fifty Another of his axioms that' sunk deep into our breast and caused us to resolve to come home nd go to work was uttered when he was speaking of making a newspaper. He said: "I have observed, during the sixty-nine years or my liTo that there is no royal roud to mnking a newspaper, except by the man who owns it getting in und working like hell.'' Ilnrney coni r,.om (,.onB fum. 1 ne niooti oenirr4.t,n is 1111: wltn iron. When he useitMa. iro to Boiscourt lakes with u bottle and gun to hunt ducks, he never forgot that he was put on this earth to work w,lpn well as play, and we remember small boy of seeing his ed i . 1 " " apirii rarrying the flute line of Boiscourt Lake.' which )pcant that he was down there Imnlnn, taking a few drinks, pos sibly playing a little poker with flic boys, but. always finding time to write something for his large 1 family of renders. He has ever been a practical Joker and never was he so happy as when ne cnuhl pull n good one on some fellow business man. When his good friend, CupUiin Qninby bought dressed opossum thinking it wus pig, Barney Sheridan let the whole state know of it. Probably line of his best traits was shown when Tom Kellev, state treasurer, and n resident of Harney's town, was accused of mis. appropriating state funds. The accu sation proved false, but the .fight toent merrily on during the process of prov ing. Tom 'Kelley was an ardent He. publican, ns is .lack IVnie, and Bar ney was the bull Democrat of the stale. But when Tom was accused, Ilnrney took off his coat for his fel low townsman regardless of political party and his defense of Tom is legend throughout that country. Like some of the rest of us, Barnev has been blvssed with 11 tmv. The bov the apple of bis eve-he lives. breathes and him his being for John. who is now n man. John took r-.in. y to try New Mexico und obi Ilnrnev. with his heuVI breaking, urejed him to go and have his evperien.e. A kind providence has changed John s views :ind he Is coining back to Piiolu next year to rim the old Weslem Spirit the Sheridan paper. In speaking of this bit of news, which to Ilnrney Is more important than the peace treaty the l eague of Nations, lihe old editor's ryes sparkled us he said: "John's coming home next year to nm the paper and then I am quitting forever, except to write some stuTf thai T think no one else can write; then Mrs. Sheridan nnd myself are go. ing to glolie trot a little, anj I'll give you my word, Bruce, we are coming out to I. a Crande to mnke you a visit. And when he comes we wnnt the IVmiK'rnU nnd Itepuhiiiuns as well to congregate in I Grande and give this old warrior a reception and shake his hand.
