Tariff reform debated amid Randallite stance and church note

They say only whisky and tobacco taxes can be removed to fund reduced duties later, urging gradual tariff cuts to reach near free trade after debt repayment. Also notes Grace Mission and the Reformed church history and dedication details in this city.

Reform Critique on Kansas State Boards and Pensions
The editorial criticizes Gov. Martin for partisan board appointments, urging proportional representation to reflect voters. It recalls Geo. W. Glick’s minority inclusion and warns that Martin may repeat spoils tactics. It notes postwar pension costs exceeding 800 million dollars, with yearly pensions rising to 75 million and broader comparisons to Europe.
