While we are aware that the colonel
has not sought this honor. and ha.
been content with the enviable dis.
tinction he has Won in the journalistic
field. as well as in the ranks of the
ablest legislators of the state: vet we
certainly cannot blame him if he should
consider ii the greatest honor ever con-
ferred upon him when he finds himself
called upon by the almost unanimous
voice of his present constituency. TO
become their candidate for the exalted
position of United States senator. And
whether he decline the proilered hon
or, or accept-and whether he be elect

GYPSUM TOwNIHIP, Jan. 9, 1874.
EDITOR EAGLE: At mass meeting
of the citizens Of Gypsum and Rock
ford townships, Zeph. Stafford was
called to the chair, and J. Melee was
chosen secretary. Farmer Doolittle
offered tho following resolutions, which
were unanimously adopted, and or
dered published in the Wichita EAGLE
and the Topeka Commonwealth:
Resolred, That we the farmers of
Gypsum and Rockford townships. in
mass meeting assembled, unite in the
following declarations
LIST. That we view with alarm the
growing power of monoplies and call
upon the farmers, of the country TO unite
with us in the effort TO secure our just
rights in the legislation Of congress.
ID. That while farmers and laboring
men trust TO professional politicians
and party rickstcrs TO fill the offices
and shape the legislation of the coun-
try. it is not TO be expected that just
legislation will take precedence of
Credit Mobilier swindies and back pay
steals.
Sd. Political parties are formed TO
correct present existing abuses, or TO
carry out certain policies, and the tri-
umph of party in an election ia an
endorsement BY the people of the prin-
ciples of such party. That a party OBJ
tanning CONTROL of the government is
bound to carry out the principles upon
which they were elected. and failure
to do so renders the party unworthy
the confidence of all honest people
ith That the republican party Of
Kansas is pledged to reform. and the
people demand the fuliiilmeut of that
pledge in the election TO the United
States senate of man identified as
reformer.
5th. That the nomination of Honor
able NJ. " " rdock TO the United
States senate, by the farmers Of >edg

our approval. and we call upon the
legislature of Kansas 10 ratify that
