T. Fl. WALKER.-Among the good
men of this State who have gone
into the Greeley movement is
Thaddeus II. Walker, the Demo
cratic Liberal nominee for govern
or. We have always counted him
as an upright and sincere man, and
a true friend of Kansas. We were
sorry, indeed, to see him leave the
good old RepublIcad party. Ifhe
believed it impure he could have
done much more effective service
in correcting its mistakes by re-
naming as a member. BY going
into the Greeley Democratic party
he has destroyed his heretofore
extensive influence with Republi,
cans, and we beg to assure him, as
a personal friend, that, taken as 9
whole, and admitting all that car
be said against the Republican par
ty, we are firmly of opinion thai
he has not bettered his party rela
lions in the least by allying him
self with the Greeley mouement
We believe this is the view hrs ole
friends take of his action in thi.
matter, and while they will contin
ne to respect him as a man, they
will be compelled to vote agains
him.

WHO WILL BE CHEATEDP

The singular spectacle is present
ed to the country of q Democratic
candidate for President, proclaim
ing himself a Republican,. This
strange political anapoly should, OF
itself, excite the suspicion of every
honest man that something is rad
ically wrong, and that either the
candidate, or the party that nomi-
mated him, il to be cheated. Hor-
ace Greeley justities his treachery
to the Republican party by assert
ing that he 10 still essentially Re
publican, and that the Democrats in
nominating him have given simple
evidence of their conversion to the
doctrines of the Republican party.
His friends tell US that the Demo
cratic party has given up its past
traditions, have accepted in good
faith the fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments, have endorsed and &C.
quiesce in every leading measure
which it has hitherto opposed, and
that If Greeley is elected his ad-
ministration will be as Republican
In its character as if he had been
the nominee of the Philadelphia
convention.
A few Republicans have been
duped into the belief that this Is q
true statement of facts. They be-
lieve in Greeley's honesty, and
think this trait In his character has
at last won the respect of his life
long enemies, and caused them to
accept him, not as the representa-
tive Of . party which they abhOr,
but a. the most upright and mag.
unanimous man in the country, and
consequently the best fitted to gov
ern the nation, The crafty leaders
Of the Democratic party have COM
pletely hoodwinked their Victims,
and hope by November 10 proselyte
. sufficient number, through the I'm
fiuence of their original converts, to
practically deliver into their hands
the administration of the Govern
ment. This Is the scheme now on
foot, under the hypocritieal pre-
tense OF reform; and every Repub-
lican who, through apathy or. SYM
patty. encourages the movement,
becomes party to the betrayal OF
the nation.
One question, which admits OF no
evasive answer, shonld convince
every fAlr-minded man that It IL not
Horace Greeley that the Democratic
party wants. but the control Of the
Government, which Il expects
through his election. Does any
sane man, Republican or Democrat,
believe that the magnsnlmity or
honesty of Greeley would hays had
special attraction for the Democrats
party had there been any possible
show Of electing one of their own
party leaders, or had he been the
choice of the Philadelphia conyen.

EDITOR News: see, in looking

Mr.. Fenlon, in his speech before
the anything-to-beat- Grant club, on
Tuesday night last, gave us the
usual harrangue about the incom-
potency of President Grant and the
oft repeated twaddle about the i'm.
becility of the administration of the
Republican party and then came
down to the affairs of Kansas. AT.
ter noticing the State ticket at some
length he concluded that as q whole
they werea pretty clever set of men
but by no means fitted for the posi-
tons they are seeking. He then
made direct attack on Col. Hays,
our candidate for Treasurer. He
read from tho report of some CON-
mittee to show that at one time
some of the funds of the State
were not in the vault of the State
Treasury, but that Col. Hays pro-
duced drafts on various banks for
the amount, and then said that IL
the people of Kansas should act SO
foolish as to elect him again, he
(Fenlon) hoped to God he (Hays)
would steal all the money that
come into his hands. What struck
me as singular was that a man who
loves his country SO well and had
the interest of the dear people so
near his heart should utter before a
public assembly such a wish. If he
had shown, or even assumed, that
Col Hays had squandered the peo-
pies money, there would have been
some paliation for such a monstrous
wish as he uttered. But he die not
SO much as intimate that one cent
of the peoples money had been
lost. Now, if MIR. Fenlon is sincere
in the wish he made, is he the friend
of the people? If he is not sin
cere, where in the creed of his re-
form party does he find authority to
stand mp in public assembly and
utter deliberate falsehood? Is ii
not the old Democratic ''rule or
ruin" cropping out? If we can't
