DEMOCRATIC.

The democracy of Kansas are going to
have convention. They get up steam
enough to go through this farce about
once in Two years. It is to be held at
Leavenworth, on Wednesday, the 18th
day of September. Each Representative
district of the State will be entitled to
three delegates. which are to be chosen in
each representative district on Wednes-
day, the 18th day of September, at o.
clock p. M, at the usual voting places.
The object is not announced. We do
not know whether it is to'unite the de-
mocracy in favor of Female Suffrage to
pay the Female Suffragers for their votes
against the negro, or whether something
else is to be done. Al all events it will
be. we have no doubt, "heafty" affair.

AETI-FEMALB SUFFRAGE AT BUR-
LINGAME.

A rousing meeting of those opposed to
Female Suffrage was held at BurliDgame
last Tuesday night. The large hall OF
the Court House was crowded 10 its ut
most capacity. and the stsir~ays and land

Wabaunsee. The assemblage was adj
dressed by Col. P B. Plumb and Hon &.
C. V. Eskridge, of Emporia, who were
not only respectfully listened TO but loud
ly applauded, throughout. Both efforts
are highly spoken Of, and it is conceded
on all hands that they far exceeded in
fair. thorough, dispassionate and eloquent
presenta lion Of the question at issue, any
thing previously heard in Burlingame.
At the close Of the speaking a committee
of FIVE was raised to provide for a can

be considered sound, bencefOrth. The
Suffrageiles, who started out by claiming
ten to one in their favor, now only claim

themselves. This issue having been

Max. Fawcett informs US that Major
Bickerton, living two miles northwest of
Clinton. Douglas county. has some grape
vines of the ''Norton's Virginia" variety,
three years old, which have grown go feet
and six inches from the ground this year.
He also has eight or ten other varieties,
none of which have grown less than four
teen feet this season. His vineyard is on
the northwest slope of one of the highest
bills between Clinton and Lawrence, the
soil of which is underlaid with lime stone.
The vines have never been fruited yet.
This growth is astonishing.

STAND BY THE PARTY.

It is becoming more evident every day
that majority of the Female Suffrage ad-
Vocates are conniving at the defeat Of Ne
gro Suffrage. 1t has been thought from
the first, by many, that he Female SuG-
rage movement was only gotten up to, de
feat Negro Suffrage, and this would seem
to be true. Many good people are con-
scientiously in favor o. both, but the lea
ders Of the Female party, as a general
thing, are threatening the Republican par
ty with rupture rather than that Female
Suffrage should be voted down. Let US
warn Republicans against such heresy.
Negro Suffrage is an issue Of the great
Republican party. Female Suffrage is a
mere side Issue. Let those who want to
vote for it do SO, but do not carry it so far
as to eDdanger the success of the party.
Much of the success of the Congressional
Reconstruction policy of Congress de-
ponds upon the vote upon Negro Suffrage
in the Northern States this fall. Kansas
must not go backward on Manhood Stuff
rage. Johnson is fighting the Republican
policy with all his forces, and we find the
Democrats nearly all supporting every
measure calculated to create a split in the
Republican ranks, for the purpose Of aid
ing him in his efforts for the overthrow of
the Republican party. The Female Stuff
rage advocates are going back upon the
"without regard to color" part of their
professions, thus showing their insincer-
ity, and are saying if ybody attempts to
organize against the Female movem ent,
they are ready to organize against the
Negro. Let those Republicans who care
more for the success of the principles of
the party-who care more for the defeat
of Andrew Johnson and his ruinous poll
icy, than they do for the success of a side
issue, not be led into opposition to the
Republican party by few demagogues.
Those who admit that their great cry
for equal rights and Impartial Suffrage
is based upon such a sardy foundation as
that they will vote against Negro Suffrage
if somebody else don't vote for Female
Suffrage, wont do to follow.

IMPUDHNT.

The advocates of Female Suffrage have
been organized for the canvass of the
State for The last four months. Recently,
in some localities, the opponents of Fe-
male Suffrage have organized against 1t.
The Suffrageites now say that if these
anti Female Suffrage organizations are
persisted in, they will go to lighting Ne
gro Suffrage. Isn't this the highlh of i'm
pudence? Has nobody a right to organ
ia to propagate their views but those
who favor Female Suffrage? When did
they get general custody of things in
Kansas? If they are going to vote down
party measure in revenge against some
body else who don't go for their pet
scheme, the Republican party will be apt
to look out for them when the time
comes

We congratulated the people of Chase
county, few weeks ago, upon the estab-
lishment of paper in their midst, know
ing that we'll conducted journal there,
devoted to the local interests of Cotton
wood Falls and Chase county would be a
good thing for them. But it seems we
were mistaken as to the mission Of the
journal. Il seems to have been establish
ed as a regular Venus' Miscellany for
Emporia. and nearly lis entire inside
space for the last three weeks has been
occupied by Safeguarding citizens of
Empora. It's local columns are very
meagre. 1t is Of no advantage whatever
to that part of the country as at present
conducted, and we do not wonder that the
people complain about it. When Theo.
Alvord q Co. get through throwing slime
at the citizens of Emporia. let them fig
ure up and see how much they have made
out OF the enterprise-bow many votes
they have made for Female Suffrage.
Much has been said by the friends of The
movement about the indecent fiDgs of
some of the writer's against the measure.
If the Cottonwood Falls Venus Missed
lany is specimen of their pure literature,
we don't think they have much room to
complain. If that paper don't disgust
the good people of Chase county with
Female Suffrage and cause them to roll
up a handsome majority against the
measure, then we mistake their metal.
