White Cloud Kansas chief. [volume] (White Cloud, Kan.) 1857-1872, 1858-05-06
s.ate Ticket.

Venton az topeka, on the Zotn OF APrll.
| Il Is quite q jumble of moderate and
radical men. and most Of them are prob
! ably good enough. but with a preponder-
ance Of the radicals. We shall vote for
such ones as we please, and refuse to vote
for such as we do not take stock in. and
advise others to do the same. Before the
meeting Of the Convention, it wssthOught
that there would be another one called, to
nominate conservative Free State ticket.
If there be, we viii always vote Conser-
vative, in preference to Radical.
For Governor. is Henry j. Adams.
Mayor of Leavenworth, q moderate man.
and q Wkits man.
For Lieutenant Governor, is Cyrus K.
Holiday. of Topeka-a Radical. but, as
far as we know, reasonable one.
For Secretary of State. is E. P. Ban
croft, of Emnoris. We know nothing
about the man; but he comes from red
hot locality. and We presume he is a
Radical.
For Treasurer Of State, is ]. B. Vince
Ter, Of this County. He is e member Of
the Territorial Legislature, and at the
close Of the last session, made such an
exhibition Of himself as is described in
the couplet. "the higher mp monkey
Climbs" &c. BY vehemently exclsiming,
he hoped to God another such corrupt
body might never again assemble in
Kansas. This probably secured him the
nomination for State Treasurer.
For Auditor Of State. is G. S. Hillyer.
of Grasshopper Falls. Don't know him.
but guess he'll do.
For Attorney General. is Charles A.
Foster, of Ossawstomie. He is one of
the Free State pioneers Of Kansas, and
roughed it through the wars. doing SUBJ
stantial service for the cause. We believe
he is aR p.
For Superintendent Of Public Instruc-
ton, is John NJ. Walden. editor of the
QuindarO Chindowan. He is red-hot
Radical. but nevertheless. very courteous
and gentlemanly fellow.
For Commissioner Of School Land. is
John W. Robinson. Of Manhattan. We
don't know him. but he halls from
Conservative section.
BIT here comes the unkindest cut OF
all. For Congress, = Martin F. Conway,
Of Lawrence-sohslimes called Judge :;
but what he is Judge Of, we can't tell,
except it is gas. He is a Radical. Marcus
j. PARROT must walk the plank. In Ohio.
we have written hard, talked hard, and
voted bard, against Parrot; but in Kan
sas. we are sorry that we cannot vote for
him again. He came here Democrat,
but has stood by the Free State people
through all their trials and troubles. He
volunteered his services as attorney for
the Free State Prisoners, and has incurred
danger in the cause But he is too con-
sentative and, above all. he was a can.
didste on the 4th Of January. 1t viii he
seen that all who permitted their names to
go on that ticket, have been doomed
While Parrot is in Congress. working
away with all his might for Free Kansas.
Free State Convention is setting him
aside. and putting Judge. forsoorh. in
his place. Conway has been in Kansas
a long time, and has principally done gas
work. Whenever a meeting has assem-

The Convention. in the name Of the ''peo-
pie Of Kansas" thought to sugar PARROT
of by the following Resolution:
RESOLVED. That the services of Hon. NJ. |
]. Parrot in Congress. have fully justified |
the high expectations of his constituents. |
and that the ability. fidelity and industry |
manifested in the discharge of his official
duties more than ever entitle him to the |
fullest confidence and esteem.
They say that he is more than ever
entitled to confidence and esteem. yet
had already withdrawn their confidence
from him. and bestowed It upon JHdgsi
They must think he is easily tickled with
an empty Resolution. If the people of
Kansas have an opportunity. they viii
express their confidence and esteem in q
more substantial manner, no matter how
many Judges may oppose him.
There are three Supreme judges to he
