The State Ledger

It is just to score a scoundrel.
But it is very unjust to pretend to screen his deeds.
Better speak right at first and in the end you need not make any explanations especially to a fool.
Germs germinate, and disease always makes its appearance among things that do not use sanitary precautions.
To deceive the public in a newspaper on any serious subject is a downright effort to increase their tribulations.
Prosperity comes so slow, that the farmer has hollered for dollar wheat again, and promises not to raise much this year.
The women of Iowa are raising cane, it would be a good idea if they would raise more money to defray the expense of their ignorance.
Some men go crazy because their better halves are full of flirtations. Its better to bear the ills they have, than flee to those they know not of.
We don't like sarcasm, but we do like to pitch a scoundrel some time, for we believe it does him good in the end, while in the beginning, it does him harm.

The LEDGER only asks of its readers to be faithful. And in the end it means to not only show but convince them that right means right and will prevail,
"Ere long they will see its effect,

There was one colored graduate from the High school this year.

There were quite a batch of girls that were lucky enough to effect an entrance to the High school by means of diligent study.
We own no thieves for friends said an old fox as he was being pursued by the hunters to a fare you well. But we do own many a man for a friend who cannot work us into something hence he leaves us and gives us an awful send off But aside from all this we intend to fight it out on the line we started out on if it takes all summer.

The people of Topeka should feel proud of our paper by reason of our own help on the LEDGER. All the composition in this paper is done by Lillian and Maude Jeltz. And at the same time they attend school regular.
Of course we have a foreman to perform that part of mechanical work that the girls cannot do
Topeka people ought to feel proud of this paper and its editor.
