THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER. The Republicans of Leavenworth, Atchison and Bourbon Counties are Putting Forth a Strong and United Effort to Elect Their Respective County Tickets MR. KUYKENDALL'S LETTER VOLUME IV. A Pungent Writer Ably Discusses the Situation Among the Cranks and Followers of the Independent Movement Republicans, Democrats and Populist Should Profit by His Advice. FELLOW CITIZENS OF SHAWNEE COUNTY—Stretched across Kansas ave., from the second story of Independent campaign headquarters is a dilapidated banner bearing the war cry of the Independent county movement and the injunction, "Don't mark X in the O" The banner is an inspiring affair and is warranted to catch the eye of any man who is is suffering from mental weakness. Before this independent movement began I expressed the hope that my friend, Francis Marion Stahl, would not lead himself to it as a candidate, but such were not the immutable decrees of destiny; nothing but the job of ringmaster will suit Mr. Stahl. Barred from playing this part with the old show, it is the most natural thing in the world to see him and a few of his followers making plans for a little circus of their own. Mr. Stahl, Carrie Nation and Preacher McFarland can't stand to be in a position where they cannot crack the orthodox whip and make the animals dance around. This independent movement involves the support of a welter weight Populist, Mr. Stebbins, who has been identified with every scheme imaginable, for the last ten years, for the defeat and embarrassment of the Republican party. Ten years ago Kansas Populists believed firmly that before this time their party would be the whole political works in America; and now look at it. It stands today side by side with the Prohibition party of Kansas; both too dead to skin, great, loathesome carcasses of iniquity, each worse than the other. When there are important issues that divide Republicans and Fusionists then party fealty is a duty. A member of a party has no right to refuse to support a candidate simply because that candidate was not his personal choice. If the candidate on your ticket is competent and honest, you are bound by every tenet of political honor to vote for him. What are the facts about the candidates on the Republican ticket? Mr. Stahl did not go into the canvass for the primaries a year ago. He took the chances that the primary would not hold, but it held, and no fair-minded man can question the regularity or the validity of the nominees of that primary. The primaries were preceded by a long and active campaign and nobody was barred as a candidate. There were no strings tied to Mr. Stall. He had a chance to come out and take his chances with the rest of mankind, and it shows a want of candor on the part of the independents to pretend, otherwise. Instead of coming out before the people at the primary, Mr. Stahl, Carrie Nation, Preacher McFarland and the staggering remains of the Prohibition party commenced to look for material for candidates, and lumber to build a platform to put them on. They were quick to find material in my friend, Mr. Stebbins, a blustering young insider, a gentleman who believes in neither hell nor heaven, God nor man, and when our Methodist minister made a public announcement from his pulpit that he would support this young insider for the high office of County Attorney I said to myself that the great, bloody chasm which Luther and his co-laborers opened will not be bridged during the lifetime of the present generation. It makes little difference to Mr. Stebbins whether Christ was dipped or sprinkled by the gentleman in the camel-hair cutaway. He does not want to hear too much about miracles because he considers it a matter of absolute indifference to him whether they are true or not. Instead of conquering the world the church is rapidly losing what it has hitherto gained. Its body of doctrine should be Love of God, Charity for man, Truth, Honor and Purity, and it should embrace all that is blessed and beautiful, gracious and great in every sect, science and philosophy known to man. Are we but groveling earthlings to understand from the expression of this sky pilot in the Methodist pulpit that honesty and integrity in the worthy gentleman of the cloth can be but spasmodic and not chronic? In our youth we were usually told the truth—I mean the real thing. And in my youth I was always taught that the gentlemen who had the engineering of our souls into the realms of eternal bliss and harps were utterly incapable of a variation from the straight line of invariable truth and consistency. It is strange—even miraculous—that such an intensely principled people as have inhabited Shawnee county should be led to the political shambles by men without social worth, or individual integrity, or intelligent power, or political instinct, or loyal impulse, but so it was and is. The ways of Providence are past finding out. The miracle of human progress is yet a mystery and the prophecy of political and patriotic hope is yet a vision. Who is this man McFarland? Well I dreamed the other night who he was and I will tell you. I dreamed that he was a compound and distilled budget of contradictions and speculations, and post mortem theorizers had experienced considerable difficulty in arriving at a correct solution of this personified quintescence of nonsense, this intellectual eunuch, who couldn't father an idea if cast bodily into the womb of the goddess of Wisdom. The erudite savant of posthumous explorations emphatically maintains that the aforesaid masculine abomination demonstrated himself undeniably a direct descendent of the Satanic peerage, pointing as a confirmation of this supposition to his invariable return to the purgatorial habits. Knowing that all things revert to their primitive source, this prescribed origin would seem probable. The Lord made man in six days and rested on the seventh. It was his first experiment and as first experiments are always failures, I regard it as extremely strong proof of his subsequent disgust and disability. Still, it seems awfully hard to ascribe this masculine freak to any intelligent parentage, and I cannot for a moment harbor the opinion that he was shaped in the molds of divinity and I have always had too much respect for the devil to accuse him of putting up a job of cold-blooded cruelty when it would be a detriment to his cause, and any of the Western theorists who have heard the vile language of this masculine freak ring out from the Methodist pulpit, are compelled to admit that he is a detriment, an absolutely superfluous fixture, in any quarter of Erebus. This brainless society freak is one of the degenerate creatures to whom the fanatical missionary should direct its attention. The church will find him an excellent mark for salvation. If it has the courage of the Christ that it pretends to follow, if it has the patience of the man of Galilee, the heroic faith and magnanimous qualities of the crucified Savior, let it put on the gloves, envelop itself in a disinfectant and attack this disease-breeding, soul-stagnant and rattle brained piece of twisted np humanity. You who prate over your Godgiven missions and divine appointments, look you to the shallow, sickly, sentimental society sycophant, who stands before you today, condening and refuting the laboring people of this county, the world's bravest and best, contaminating and bulging by his licensed deprivatives the superior minds of the more godly common people, look you to this base creature, even as he stands before you, rotten in his redolent raiment and guddy ignorance, standing in your gilded pulpit and flaunting his vermiculous character before your eyes. In my dream he was one of the devil's right bowers, a professional juggler, a Divine grafter who juggles his words in much the same manner as the fellow handled rub- TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, OCT. 24, 1902. ber balls in Ringling's circus, throwing them left-handed into the heavens from behind a walnutstained pulpit, waiting for them to come back. A professional boomerang with inspired revelations, he contorts his meanings ambiguously into the desired shape and pumps unchristian principles into his asinine followers at so much per annum. Last spring, in one of his Sunday lectures he denounced the City administration, and said that every man and woman who voted for Albert Parker for mayor was accessory to the crime of murder, and this most infamous utterance was applauded to the echo, and in my dream this statement was in my judgment the foulest thing that ever fell from the lips of a divine gratter in a Methodist pulpit. A part of the congregation frowned their disapproval of his vilelanguage while a part of them rolled his purid falsehoods as sweet morsels under their tongues. Unable to restrain my indignation I arose and left the church. Here I kicked the cover off and got cold. He makes a hideous moekery of morality, a damnable farce of oratory, a grewsome pretense of Christianity, a pantomime of religion and a vile political resort of the church. The toleration of a vice is its sanction. Take from him the superfluous adjuncts and there remains only a skeletonized personification of degenerate ideas, a living exemplification of man's monkey propensities prior to the first Darwinian evolution. I have painted this man as I dreamed him, not as I would have him. I did not create him, nor did his architect ask my advice, hence it is no fault of mine that his virtues, frail as ocean loam; not mine the blame that while half a god, he's all a beast. Fair reader, you now have my dream of our Methodist minister, Mr McFarland. Who are these Independent candidates and their supporters? Well, I will tell you who they are. In my judgment they are the same old Godforsaken gang of moral perverts and intellectual misfits who two years ago brought Carrie Nation to this city to lecture on prohibition, destroy property, insult the people and make their rocks, clubs, hatchets revolvers and shotguns sing come to Christ. It is not my present purpose to drag forth all the grisly skeletons of this city that took part in these great highway parades and make them dance for the amusement of the multitude. I have yielded to the urgent appeals of my friends to let them down easy, to cast a little kerosine on the troubled waters, to hold out the olive branch to these intellectual eunuchs, these smallbore biggots, upon whom nature put heads solely for the sake of conformity, these creatures who have thus far succeeded in dodging the insane asylum, whom an inscrutable Providence has kept out of the penitentiary to ornament the amen corner. I will let them down easy as I have trouble of my own, more, perhaps, than nature intended, and am not particularly anxious to increase the amount. There are men and women in this city who joined hands and locked arms with Carrie Nation and went out upon the public highways of this city and took part in these great buzzard-feasts, whose private life contains a scandal that is absolutely unprintable. They are looked upon by men and admired by women, their names are often upon the lips of the good, although I cannot learn that they ever give anything to charity, or to the city's advancement. More men to write and speak the truth, are needed, more men willing to lead clean lives. After the first outbreak of Carrie Nation, bullies of the lost manhood stripe, and their followers, held a windy pow wow one Sunday morning on the east steps of the State House amid themselves with rocks, clubs, hatchets, axes, revolvers and shotguns; marched down Kansas avenue to East Sixth street, broke into a building, robbed a slot machine of its contents, carried away cigars and billiard balls; went on east to the old Buss barn and there destroyed property that was stored away; went over to Moser's, broke into his cold storage house; came back to the city jail, pushed their revolvers up under HIS SON IS AN EMBEZZELER M'Farland,a White Divine Can't Control His Own Son. He is Pastor of One of the Largest White Churches in Topcha--Disreputable Means Employed to Secure Photographs--Picture Display a Dismal Failure. The display of pictures at the Auditorium Monday night was a dismal failure, as to making an impression upon the public, as its promoters intended it should. If the Rev. Dr. Jim Crow McFarland, who is posing as a follower of Christ and a leader of the people would commit the passage Mathew xix-17 to memory, he would be a different man, and would have the respect of the people of the county. While the Saviour was denounced, he was respected by the multitude. All said, "we find no fault in this man." Can we say as much for this Pharasee McFarland? Hear what the Saviour said to one of these fellows who appeared unto him as one of the goody good fellows: "If thy brother shall trespass against thee go and tell him his fault. Between thee and him alone, if he shall hear thee, then thou hast gained thy brother." Now Mac have you been to Galen Nichols and Bert Lucas to apply the above passage of the holy writ? If not, then you are not living up to your profession. Have you gone to the druggist and joint keepers to apply this passage? No, you hypocrite, you did not desire to. Your sole aim is to keep up confusion among the people, and thereby gain a little notoriety and prominence. Another passage he disregards; "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." While Rev. McFarland was displaying pictures of other people and holding them up to ridicule, why did he not show a picture of his own dear son embezling money from V. Kaczynski, a wholesale hay and coal dealer, 4th and Jackson streets, and it might have made quite an impression upon the public had he shown a photograph of himself sneaking in to settle the matter after his wayward son had skipped the town. Was he a frequenter of drug stores and joints that made him an embezzler? Did McFarland not use the Christian influence with his son that he was issuing out at the Auditorium last week? The commandment, "Thou shalt not steal," was wrong at this time, and he could not use it. His son is no better than another man's son, especially when he is a thief. We do not know how he obtained the habit, it may be hereditary, or it may have been taught him. We are all aware that he was reared in the Sunday school. Now, if Bro. Mac can't teach his own blood to be straight, why does he impose a salary upon his congregation for something he cannot influence his own family to do. This is downright robbery, to accept pay for services not rendered. In the category of mean and unprincipled things, a liar is lower in the scale of humanity than all else; even the dirty, cringing cur is regarded with far more respect than this poisoness of all serpents—a liar. In Dr. McFarland's kit of tools he selected one with which to accomplish a low, sneaking job—not only low in the eyes of humanity, but hated and despised by God. A Rev. Jackson was detailed to carry out the work, which was that of going into the home of a citizen and tax-payer and telling his wife an infamous lie. Being an obedient servant, Rev. Jackson picked his chances, and upon the departure of the husband from his home, sneaked in and told the unsuspecting wife that her husband had sent him (Jackson) after his photograph, which was given him without question, and with a sanctimonious grin went his way rejoicing, unmindful of that commandment, "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor." The story runs thus: Rev. Jackson called upon Mrs. N. Chiles and told her that Mr. Chiles was going to do some work for him in exchange for a half dozen photographs, and that he had just met Mr. Chiles on the street, and that he told him to call and get his photograph from which the others could be made. How is this for a man who claims to be a follower of the lowly Nazarene? If this is some of McFarland's Christianity, we beg to be excused. Monday of this week Rev. Jackson called upon Mrs. C. to return the photograph he lied to secure, and fortunately found the husband, upon whom he had wilfully lied to satisfy the whims of McFarland. This time he came with tears in his eyes, admitting that he had done wrong, and like a whipped cur, whined and begged forgiveness for his malicious actions. We believe there is a little redemption for the Rev. Jackson, that is, provided he will quit consorting with McFarland. ANDERSON COUNTY Our Anderson county readers no doubt will read with interest our analysis of the men who are before them to be balloted for on Tuesday week. That is, of those who, as we think, are not merely republican but who are the friends of the colored voters of Anderson county, who are undoubtedly the balance of power in that county. Just think in how many instances the various candidates have been elected by one, two or three majority, and it is easily seen what the loyalty of the black vote amounts to. And just why some of the pinhe aded andclose-fisted public crib officers like the sheriff of this county, would hesitate to do business with a Negro enterprise we cannot see. Be he democrat, populist or republican we could and would not advise or speak one word in support of the candidacy of a man who does not recognize and encourage Negro enterprise. Otherwise the republican ticket is a winner and composed of good men, who are wide-awake th their constituents and appreciate and respect all classes. FOR PROBATE JUDGE J. H. Slicer the republican candidate for probate judge has been a resident of Anderson for thirty-five years and has always been an active and enthusiastic republican, his record toward the colored people. He is an affable and dignified old gentleman who will, no doubt, be elected and on our next annual visit to Garnett, we shall greet him as judge. FOR CLERK OF THE COURTS. Dr. J. B. Jones has held the position as clerk of the district court for the past two years to the entire satisfaction of the people, and as he has done this it is an assurance that the people of the county will as usual give a faithful servant the second term. The colored people all speak well of Dr. Jones and state that at any and all times he has shown his interests in this people and their enterprises and it give us great pleasure to say that Dr. Jones is all right and will be elected. FOR COUNTY CLERK. Mr. J. E. Calvert like Dr. Jones is before the people as the republican candidate for a second term as county clerk. From what we could learn, Mr. Calvert is the kind of man on whom all classes can depend. He has always given our people the consideration due them, and not by words but by deeds shows his appreciation of the people who have always been loyal and true. FOR COUNTY TREASURER. Hon. E. Simon the republican candidate for county treasurer lives near Colony, Kansas, in this county. He was his party candidate three years ago and although he was defeated by a few votes, made a splendid race against an immensely popular man. Mr. Simon is a blacksmith by trade but has long been one of Anderson County's prosperous farmers. From what we can learn of Mr. Simon, he is a good republican and we believe every one should vote for him. FOR CORONOR. Dr. J. R. Scott is the republican nominee for coronor. His residence, though only a short time in the county, he has gained a host of friends and has rapidly come to the front. A vote for him is a vote for a good man. FOR REPRESENTATIVE. Rev. Jas. Hunter of Greely, this county, is the republican candidate for representative, and as a U. S. senator is to be elected this winter, it behooves every republican of this district to turn out and elect Rev. Hunter. THE COURT HOUSE. One thing of more than passing notice is the splendid new court house at Garnett. It is one of the finest in the state and it seems to be a foregone conclusion that no colored man be employed in or about it. The colored people should bear this in mind and defeat the party who is responsible for the same. SOME KANSAS POLITICS LEAVENWORTH COUNTY Leavenworth county has a young man who is making his mark in this state in the person of Hon. B. F. Endres, the present deputy county attorney, and member of the law firm of Fenlon & Endres, formerly Fenlon & Fenlon. This young man was born in Leavenworth county twenty-two years ago. His father, John Endres was one of the first German settlers in that county. He began reading law with the firm of John H. Atwood and the late Thos. P. Fenlon at the age of sixteen years. He was also a news boy for several years and an apprentice in the foundry. He was admitted to the bar in February 1896. He is a staunch Republican and has held more prominent positions than any man of his age in the state. In filling the office of deputy county attorney, he takes the lead in most of the largest criminal cases, was once deputy clerk of the district court, and represented the government on war claims where millions of dollars were involved; was in the claim department of the [Name] HON. B. F. ENDRES. Missouri Pacific. These are only a few of the places filled by him, notwithstanding all these positions, he had the ambition to be his own boss and go as high in the council of the nation as his chances would permit. Since being admitted to the bar, he has tried scores of civil and criminal cases, coming in contact with the men under whom he had read law—John Ix. Atwood, W. B. Waggener and scores of other distinguished jurists. Though young in years and experience, he has succeeded in acquitting some of the hardest cases in the criminal court. Civil cases involving thousands of dollars have been his delight. He practices in all the courts. If a large majority of the Republicans of that county would follow his advice the party would carry strength. He is popular and a diplomat, always courteous and polite. He is being talked of for county attorney two years hence, and if nominated will be elected by a large majority, as all parties respect his judgment. Let other young men follow his example. Herbert W. Wolcott, Republican candidate for representative of the Seventh district, comprising the city district, was born in Illinois. He was state senator from Cleveland county, Ohio, and stood by Marcus A. Hanna for United States Senator when it tried the very soul of men. He was begged and beseeched by a host of anti Hanna men to change. He stood firm and landed his man. He was president of the Tippecanoe club, an organization of twelve hundred members. He is now general manager of the Kansas City "L" Railway company, and since his connection with the road, he has given considerable employment to colored people. He is an ardent supporter of Chas. Curtis, a good business man—perfectly reliable and will work for the best interest of his county. The business men are NUMBER 41. The Plaindealer Leg Man Visits a Few Kansas Counties and Chats With Some of the Politicians. The Republicans in Leavenworth County are Making a Determined Fight. supporting him regardless of party. Col. D. R. Anthony is getting around slowly and will be O. K. on the 4th of November. He knows he is wrong, but being old and childish is slow to admit. The working men, merchants, etc., are for Chas. Curtis and to be for him you must vote for Wolcott. Kansas is always glad to welcome such men as Mr. Wolcott and long political training with such men as Hanna and Foraker, makes him a valuable addition to Leavenworth county and the state in general. Hon. Harry E. Michael, Leavenworth's candidate for county attorney was nominated for the second term by the Republicans. He was born and educated in the city of Leavenworth, and worked his way up from a poor boy to an enviable place in the ranks of men. He is kind and as generous as his means will permit a young man who is struggling to get up in life. In order to strengthen the party, everybody should support him. He is young and communicative, which is needed by people who seek information and are not familiar with the business world. Young Michael has done his duty conscientious and fearless, and if he made any errors, they were wholly unintentional. Stand by him and he will remember his friends. It is wrong to nominate a young man and turn him down, especially when you have the power to elect him. Vote for him, and he will not betray your confidence. Harry is all right and will be elected by a handsome majority. W. H. Bond is making a hard fight for probate judge. EMPORIA—LYON COUNTY. The Republicans will elect every officer on the ticket. Hon. Chas Harris, who was renominated for the legislature from the Fifty-first district, is the only old soldier on the ticket. He was a leader in the last house and secured some good legislation for his county and state. 'He is a stalwart Republican and a friend of everybody who are friends to themselves. He has a host of colored friends in his district who will support him to a man. Dennis O'Connor, the candidate for sheriff of Lyon county is a Kentuckian by birth, and came to Hartford, Kas., twenty years ago. Is now deputy under his brother, Thomas and has served for five years, which amply qualifies him for the place. He is a life-long Kentucky fighting Republicans and his family was among those who stood by the Union and fought like tigers for its preservation. It is needless to say his majority will be large. OSAGE COUNTY. Mr. L. A. Parks, of Lyndon, the Republican nominee for county superintendent of public instruction, is principal of the high school in that place. He was born in Pennsylvania and came to Kansas seventeen years ago. He is a prominent educator and his election is assured. Senator Miller, of Osage City, is campaigning in the Fourth district. He is a strong debater, and will bring many back sliders back to the fold. Published at Topeka, Shawnee county, Ks. every Friday morning by THE PLAINDEALER PUBLISHING OO. 412 EAST SEVENTH STREET.

The Republicans of Shawnee County are honest citizens, and they will vote the ticket straight. The illness of Mr. Bailey's father may take him from the campaign. The people of the state are well enough acquainted with the qualifications of Craddock toknow that they do not need him in the state house, so Mr. Baily can go home in peace to care for his sick father, knowing that the people of Kansas will loyally stand by him. A sample of how many people are in sympathy with the Stebbens-Stahl movement was shown in the Second ward Saturday night.

Hereof you will take due notice. Attest: (Seal.) E. L. GOOD, Clerk of Court of Topeka. Then, the real manhood of Topeka rose en masse and laid down the law in no uncertain language to hungry hypocrites and Carrie Nation hood lums. They declared that religious intolerance would no longer be permitted to terrorize this city. Fearing just retribution at the hands of the citizens, the Nation gang went away back and sat down. Mr. Stahl, you should have arrested this gang, prosecuted them to the bitter end of the law, fined them to the limit, collected the fine and used the money to make a partial payment on the grocery and coal bill of the rest of the gang. Now, Mr. Stahl, your conduct in office and out, for the last two years, politically, has been a disgrace to this county. Charles Drew imported you from Auburn and kept you thirty days before you were illigible to the office of Chief of Police. That was in my judgment the greatest insult the voters of this city ever got, and you, Mr. Stahl, was a party to the deed and shortly after you took the offie you made a little talk in the United Brethren church. I think it was you said you found things much better than you expected, eleven open joints and one hole in the wall, but when you left the office, Mr. Stahl, there were fifty odd joints in full blast, another hole in the wall, and an additional ten or fifteen thousand dollars of court costs heaped upon the tax payers of this county. And that little exhibition that you gave us last spring, down at Pauline, when those Federal prisoners had Sheriff Cook correllled in the Wooster's house! You were pointed out. When they marched look out The display that they made Was equal no doubt To a showman's parade. They robbed Cook's wardrobe Turned over the chairs And made things feel Greatly in need of repaira. The rich and the poor The humble and proud The high and the low Coud be seen in the crowd. The pain and the anguish. The grief and the alghs, And the tears that fell from Mr. Stahl's eyes. The boot-black and, newsboy, The girl of the town, The policeman with his club His revolver and frown. From mansions of wealth, And from cottages rude, The proud and the humble, The clerk and the dude. No doubt there was seen At the windows and doors, Such crowds as had never Been witnessed before. The rich and the poor, The humble and proud, The high and the low Could be seen in the crowd. Stahl said to his men: "I believe it is true We have bliten off more Than we ever can chew." So he martialled his men up Under the trees. Sald all would go home Who were weak in the knees. And ere long to Topeka, they all did return. Their hearts full of kindness And sympathy burned. Now, Mr. Stahl, when those convicts marched Sheriff Cook out in front of an old rusty shotgnn without lock, stock or barrel, you sat there with two 45 army Colts sinched around your grt and a Winchester repeating rifle across your knee, and instead of making an effort to penetrate their armor you cowed like a young black and tan before a skunk, and that in my judgment was the biggest piece of distilled cowardice ever witnessed in this western world. Your actions, Mr. Stall, were not only a disgrace to Shawnee county and the state of Kansas, but they were a disgrace to American manhood. Had you and Mr. Cook stayed at home those farmers would have chewed those convicts up into tobacco cuds in less time than you could scorch a rat. Look what the farmers did for convict Tracy, up in northern wheat fields and Tracy was a man compared with these fellows. A few years ago, Mr. Stall, you were a political bankrupt. You couldn't pay ten cents on the dollar, politically, when the Republican party picked you up, brought you into notice and favored your advancement. They eleccted you once as Representative of the 38th district, then elected you twice to the high office of county treasurer, to minister on all the belongings of the great county of Shawnee and today you stand a deserter from the great party that picked you up and bestowed honor upon you, when you was a political bankrupt. Mr. Stall, the Republicans of this county and state have put up a ticket which in my judgment will win, and have framed a platform which clearly and cour ageously meets all the demands of party orthodoxy. They indorse the administration of President Roosevelt, approve of the work done in Congress especially the measures for the reduction of taxation, for civil government in the Philippines and for the construction of an isthmian canal, favor the continuation of the enlightened policy pursued in the Philippines, stood by the historic principles of the Republican party adequate protection to home industry, and applaud the President action in proceeding against the trusts in the high courts of the nation. Of all great political organizations this world ever knew the Republican party is the greatest, and this is not surprising in view of all the facts. It represents the best thoughts and the most untiring energy of its proprietors and originators, during a period of over fifty years. It began its career as a very small organization but founded on just and true principles it grew so rapidly that in a few years it took possession of this bully young republic. It began with one clear and settled policy, fair and honest Send Your Sons and Daughters to THEOLOGICAL DEPARTMENT—Preparing trained Ministers for the demands of the pew of today.

Let us hear from you at once, we will give all particulars. treatment of the public; and this policy has never been deviated from. In the days of its infancy there was something about the party that gave it individuality and compelled admiration. It sets a standard that is entirely its own and which no other party can possibly hope to reach. As a result, it stands today the peer of any political party the world ever knew. It is broader, brighter, bigger, better, grander and more glorious than the combined essence of all the other parties. It is the only political party through which we may attain the millennium. It is the only organization within whose victory the lamb and the lion shall become reconciled and lie down together. It is the only party offering liberty, love, brotherhood, freedom to all without regard to color, justice to a fettered and depressed people; and when the voter finds courage to read and investigate the truth, which defies denial let him read the true doctrine of Republicanism, and if he be not a foo or a knave he will grasp the eternal secret of our national and industrial success, and he will march onward with the greatest political party the human race ever knew. Now, Mr. Stahl, when you left the great Republican party and joined hands with the gasping remains of the defunct political organization of John P. St. John, Carrie Nation and McFartand, where truth and veracity is held at a premium, I am frank to confess, that I did not suspect you to be so bad. I knew that you were an intellectual dug out, that there was precious little to you but gab and gall, but I did not suppose that you would be guilty of base in ratitude. In my judgment, or Stahl, you have deteriorated, retrograded, degenerated and back slidden, and you are utterly destitute of political principles, guilty of base ingratitude and unworthy of political recognition. In my judgment, at this date, you have lost half of your moral character, and in order to save the other half, my advice to you is take your name off the independent ticket at once. Go down upon your knees ask God and the Republican party for forgiveness, pack up your personal effects, pit your amily in the Mammoth Cave One of America's greatest wonders is located in Edmonson County, Kentucky, 50 miles south of Louisville.

Go to the farm, Mr. Stahl, where the cow frogs cows and, the bull frogs bulls, where the cuckoo whistles his song of pain and love and the mocking bird sings you to rest every night and awakens you with sweet music at early dawn, there to chase the sunny zephyrs the wild bulls and domestic heifers and to spend life's sunny hours running wild among the flowers; flowers of every shade and hue, red and yellow, white and blue, with mosser growing on the trees and the mellow fruit kissed by the golden sunny breeze, there to live, amid the sweet perfume and singing birds that can not be told in human words.

Senator Burton's speech at the Opera House Tuesday evening was a master piece. There was nothing left to the Democratic pretentions when his analysis was finished. He made a strong hit for Capt. Seaton. If the Negro orators would handle the colored voters like Senator Burton their words would be more effective. His language was pointed, kind and persuasive, and went home to many a heart without the least resentment. Joe, in Capt. Seaton's free opera, got off a good joke at Waggener's expense, by comparing his bad feeling to Waggener's, after the election. The fight is on and every available war horse must be pressed into service.
