SETTLED AT LAST,

The Republican Central Committee OF
tho First Congressional District met IN
Leavonworth on Tuesday to determine
upon tho time for holding the Congress
sional Convention. Two calls had been
made and tho prospect was that there
would have been two Conventions. TO
settle the question and secure harmony,
the Committee met as stated and sus-
tanned tho regularity of tho first and
original call, fixing upon the same days
for holding tho primaries and conven-
ton. However, instead of using the
despotic "UW DO held" in connection
with the time of holding the primaries,
tho committee now recommend that the
primaries be held on tho Goth of Au-
gust, cor at such times and places as the
district committee, or in their absence,
tho city or county committees have
designated or shall DO designated"
1t would appear now as if this Convcn-
ton question was definitely settled, and
there was no moro cause for quarreling
among Republicans.

KANSAS DISPLAY AT rHE CENTENNIAL.

Through various channels we receive
the gratifying intelligence that Kansas,
IN the exhibition OF her resources, is
taking proud position among her Sis
ter States and among the nations of the
world. OF all the places of intercst-the
grand ccnters of attraction upon the
grounds-none draw moro enthusiastic
crowds than the Kansas building. 1t is
said that no one feature of the Centen-
NAL has called out moro genuine sur
prise, or has bestowed upon it moro en-
thusiastic praise than the Kansas exhibit.
People gathering there from all States
and chimes are surprised that Kansas,
instead of being vast, barren waste,
upon which a starving set was attempt
ing to exc out an existence upon what
was left after periodical visItauons from
destroying grasshoppers, is a land aow-
ing with "milk and honey; land
equalling any other under the sun IN
fertility; land of mammoth products !;
q land which is destined TO DO one OF
the richest on the globe. To-day, in
Philadelphia, Kansas has the best exhi-
bihou of any State in the Union. The
State is now properly advertised, and
we believe the exhibition will result in
bringing thousands of people within her
borders who otherwise would have
known only OF her grasshoppers and
her failures. How those wretched DEM
agogues who opposed making att appro-
priation for the Kansas display must
feel, when they hear of the triumph
their State has achieved in this great,
worlds show, We shall soon publish
what the leading papers OF the United
States have 10 saw with reference 10

readers may know las; why We have
reason g. he SO proud.

The true state OF the Hamburg mas
sacre was this: A colored company was
resting in line, across the road, on the
4th Of July. Two white men came up
in a buggy and demanded that they
break lines to let them pass. The COM
mander demonstrated, stating there was
plenty of room to pass around, but
finally TO avoid difficulty did break the
line and let them pass. The next day
they were arrested for obstructing the
highway, and while prisoners, nine of
them were killed. Oh, yes! put away
the "bloody shirt" bridge the "bloody
chasm," "forget the past"

DDE1eT Linz kICSCht ohu "ss-
The terrible tate of Custer and his
gallant three hundred adds another
tragic chapter to the great book of Bor-
der events, whose beginning dates from
the earliest settlements of our country,
whose end will be only, when tho lndi-
ans as race shall have become extinct.
The horrors Of the Mo .oc campaign
are yet fresh in our memories. The bis
toric Lava Beds, Indian cunning battling
the skill of our soldiery for so long a
time, savage malignity and treachery
eliminating in the death OF the brave
Candy and others whose mission was
honorable treaty and peace-all are
still remembered with shudder. Their
parallels in device and atroclty arc only
found in the deeds that compose the
history of the OZARK end Bloody
Ground" or among those which mark
the bloody tracks of the Mingoes, de-
scendirg from their Great Lake fast
ness upon the unsuspecting tribes and
settlements of the Susquehanna and Al
leghcny.
So with this beart-rending story OF
Custer and his men, which has been
sprung upon the country so suddenly,
and which is being read amid tears OF
sorrow and calls tor vengeance, from one
end of the land to the other. Some may
find Its parallel in the history of Leon
idas and his three hundred; some may
seek for like sacrifices amid the annals
of the Scottish Chiefs or Polish Patri-
OTIS. But Is is only when we turn TO the
thrilling chapters of our old Border his
tory that we read and re-read, in inten-
slfed form, the bloody story Of Rose
Bud and Big Horn Rivers. Custer and
his three hundred, ambushed by willy
foe and melting away in death before
odds rendered doubly and terribly for
midablo by bewildering shrieks and
stealthy mode of fighting, recall with
vivid effect the tragedy OF Braddock's
Field, whose details are SO graphically
and fully narrated in that wonderful
book, "Our. Western Border One Hun
dred Years Ago."*
Or if other parallels be sought, they
abound in tho same brilliant, stirring
and faithful volume; for Custer and Big
Horn, Candy and the Lava Beds, Modoc
and Sioux, are but repetitions, now
f;.inter,now ficrcer, of Dalzeil and Bloody
Run, Crawford and Battle Island, liar
MGR and the Miami Towns.
The new story, whether of victory or
defeat, massacre or escape, cunning or
adventure, trcachery or dash, hardship
or retreat, is but an epitome of the old
filled with its quaint and primativc por-
traitures, haloed about by thrilling ira
dit;ons, and sancitifcd TO us by the facts
that our fathers were part of 1T and
these our dwelling-places were scenes in
the midst of it.

Salina recently and made the acquaint-
anco of large number of our citizens.
Our people were very favorably I'M
pressed with the Judge and seemed to
think he would be very fit person to
be Governor of Kansas. The Judge is
q polite, accomplished gentleman, and in
point of ability he is the equal of any of
his competitors. If the gubernatorial
mantle should happen TO fall on Halder-
man, Kansas would be In luck and the
Judges friends in this region would be
delighted.
