THE BLACAESr SHEEP IN THE

A little show of warmth was developed or
a resolution proposed by DIR. Moore that thu
thanks Of the meeting be rendered the Leav
enworth delegation 10 the Legislature, fol
their faithful and efficient services in the
Senatorial election. Senator Ingalls, ad-
mitied that he was largely indebted TO these
gentlemen for his success, and he 1.-THE
speaker had witnessed their calm, dispas.
sionate and intelligent labors.
Representative Bond trusted that the gen.
tleman would not press his motion. Some
of our members were not deserving OF
thanks-a coat of tar and feathers would
come nearer their deserts. When you ex-
tend vote Of thanks TO those, you insult the
members who worked faithfully for the iu-
terest of their constituents.
DIR. Moore intended his resolution TO en-
brace only the city members.
MIR. Bond said that would include one OF
the blacklist sheep in the whole foch.
Speaker Kellogg had sold out his constit-
uents the first chance and the defeat of our
candidate was largely due to his treachery
and perversion.
Mr.. Oxen Duffy admitted the truth o.
this, bat would like TO see the faithful libors
OF such men as Moonlight, Bond, billiard ,
Morgan and Plummer fairly recognized.
Mr.. Bond said he had the Consciousness
of having performed his duty, and he asked
no thanks from the meeting.
The resolution was tabled.
The above is from the report made 10y the
Commercial of the proceedings of the meet
ing OF VOLTS Hall, on Friday evening, to
make arrangements fOr The entertainment OF
Senator Ingalls,.
Mr.. Bonds modes,y will never cause his
death. We were told by parties closely al
croy and his friends in the city paid the
money TO secure his Bonds election. We
all know that he expended large sum to
secure it, and we all know that Bond was As
poor as church mouse. Where did he get
the money to bay his seat in the Legislature?
We know that all the particular friends OF
Caldwell and Pomeroy took personal &C
tive interest in the support OF Bond.
Mr.. Pomeroy's friends, those who know,
claim that Bond received a promise from
Pomeroy to retain his Bonds brother in
the land office at Salina in consideration OF
Bonds vote. We are also in formed that
Bond asked FOR money and received it.
1t is true that Pomeroy had assurance Of
Bonds vote up to the time of York's ex-
pose. 1t is true both sides doubted his &C
ton. So much so, that the anti-Pomeroy
men labored with him on "Wednesday morn :
ing from about a. m. until about O'Clock,
when an intimate friend of Pomeroy's got
hold of him and held him until about 10
o'clock. The an,e-Pomeroy men doubted
Bond to such an extent, that they required
an affidavit from him in addition to his
pledge.
We are told by those who were present
in the Pomeroy caucus on Tuesday night
that Pomeroy pledged Bonds vote Tor him
self.
Bond did not sign the anti Pomeroy card
on Tuesday evening.
Bond and his brother wee warm supporters
of Sidney Clarke for Senator two years ago.
When Clarke withdrew his brother sup
ported Caldwell upon pledge for the land
Office, which he afterwards received. Bond
and his brother were both loud in their pro-
tes.ations in favor of the election of Cald-
well-the most open corrupt. and incom-
petent man ever cent 10 the United States
Senaie.
The people are sick of this b!atherskite.
He is a brassy, ignorant, impudens jackass,
without brains, sense or a modicum Of hon
Iesiy, one who, for years, has openly sold
himself in political matters to the highest
bidder.
Five years ago Bond was candidate for
City Marshal, and was defeated BY Hi Rob
inson. He threatened to bolt the Republi-
can ticket. unless paid, and Hi Robinson
paid him $500. Let US hear no more from
this skunk about having performed his
''duty."
1t Is our purpose 10 give very little space
In this paper to men of Bonds small cal-
bre, and ask the pardon of our readers for
giving a notice Of this length. We now
nh our hands Of him and his kind.
