It ii ii'iiri'il lust Tail ami, in the Until of later events may be tak en as a sort of prophecy. There are many truths in II and It emphatically states tin- views of a true-blue Repub lican on many pertinent matters. It Is herewith given because It coincides with the' views of the editor eif this paper: "The editor of the Kcpllhlie'aM Im a Republican without any frills or feathers. We have never been a chaser of fads or acquired tlx' habit of fol lowing off every. red iviiKon that came iiliiug.

A mini to win an olllce iieeils only one iimli lleatlon pleulv of money - a ml is of the Independ new publlention The first number ei.ee Monitor,, the launched at Independence last week by fi. A. Hurley, is before us. It iz a seven-column, four-page publication, filled with readable' news, and typo Kiaphially is a credit to the publisher and to the city. It is well edited and has the ear marks of a newspaper man at the helm. If there Is a Held in Independence for two ne'wspapers 'he Monitor will do its share to fill It. One eif tlie Denver preachers has not into the limelight by advising Miss Helen (lould te disguise herself and get a job dishwashing in a cheap res taurant, to see' if she canned find rorrie one who "will love her for herself alone."

Probably that Denver preacher would grab a job as waiter.
