4 plan is on foot by the extremists to
get possession of the Grasshopper Falls
Convention, which is to assemble ON the
Goth inst, and to resolve not to participate
in the October election. The people
must be there in their might, to prevent
the consuihmation of such fraud upon
them. Let the action Of that c5hvshti5n
be what it maywe Know the independent
Free State voters will go into the cleo
ton. 1t is expected that the Free State
party will be met with fraud and corrup-
ton, to prevent their triumph; but we
must prepare ourselves with evidence at
the baiiot bon to expose that fraud. As we
said weeks ago, the decision of no conven-
ten, nor the anathemas or dcnunciations
of no body of men, shall prevent lis from
urging the people to vote, and from voting
on that day. We advise every Free State
man who is legal voter of Kansas under
the organic act and the Territorial laws
of last winter, to vote on that day or "die
trying" As it is necessary to have a
candidate for Territorial delegate, It viii
be advisable to be In attendance at Grass
hopper Falls without fail, and nominate
him.
