HAYES AND WHEELER CLUB.

lola, Allen County, Aug. %.
EDITOR TIMEs-Hon. ID. c. Haskell ar.
rived here on the 4o'clock afternoon train,
yesterday, for the purpose of becoming &C,
quainted with our citizen, and feeling the
public pulse as to his chances for carrying
Allen county at our next election. There
had been no appointment made for a de-
monstration of any character, but upon the
arrival Of Mr.. Haskell it was suggested
that it was very appropriate time for the
organization of Hayes and Wheeler club.
A little after dark some few of the citizens
repaired to the Court House, and soon the
blooming artillery" gave notice that ''some-
thing was to be DONE" A few minutes
later and the crowds of voters came pour
ing in from every direction, until the
Court House would not hold them, and
many had to stay on the outside and satisfy
themselves by looking in at the windows.
Hon. John W. Scott was chosen chair
man, and Z. NJ. Simpson secretary. The
chairman announced the object of the
meeting, and also that any person present
desiring to become . member of the HAYES
and Wheeler club, should give his name
to the secretary; whereuDon forty-fve per
eons gave their names for membership on
the side of loyalty and true reform.
Mr.. Haskell was then called for, and
coming forward, was introduced BY the
chairman a. the next Congressman from
the Second District of Kansas, which was
the signal for an outburst of the heretofore
pent up enthusiasm Of the people, and
"bunt" it did, until the Court House fair
ly trembled. After the noise had subsided
. little, Mr.. Haskell proceeded in . calm,
deliberate and very earnest manner to
make . comparison between the two great
political parties Of the present day, as to
their fitness to preserve, and nurture that
for which We fought during the rebellion
placing the loyalty, honest, and capability
of the one party against the treason, fraud,
and imbecility Of the other party, occa-
sionally allowing the "bloody shirt" to
futter in the breeze, which 20 disgusted
three o! the unterri6ed, who were present,
that when the meeting broke up they in
dulged in some very naughty words" th Ms
verifying the old adage, that "whom the
Gods would destroy, they first make mad"
We have them "mad, and are going 10
"destroy" them from now until the 9TH day
Of November, and on that day we will
a.nnihilate" them entirely, not after the
Hamburg Style" but BY voting straight
Republican ticket.
Mr.. Haskell's speech was we'll received,
and cheer after cheer greeted him upon his
reference to the record of the grand old
Republican party, and at the conclusion of
his speech, three rousing cheers were given
for Haskell and the straight ticket, and
amid great enthusiasm, the club adjourned
until next Saturday evening, at which time
We expect Col. Plumb from Emoria to be
present, and address the club,
We are organizing thoroughly and you
can safely count on an old fashioned Re
publican majority from Allen county on
the 9TH OF November next ALLEN.

ATCHIsoN, Kansas, September 1.-The
farmers of Ellis and adjoining counties in
this State have been suffering severely Of
late from the depredations OF an organized
gang of horse thieves. A few days ago
Sheriff Beardsley, Of Ellis county, sent in
formation that the hand had been seen
crossing the Kansas Pacific railroad at
Fargo, small station thirty miles west OF
Hays City, having in their possession near
hundred head of stolen stock. The Sheriff
secured posse, consisting of five citizens
and six men from the Nineteenth Infantry,
and started in pursuit, reaching Fargo on
Friday morning.
They took the train, and after hard
ride, overlook the thieves about ten miles
north OF Buffalo station. A fight ensued,
in which a number of shots were exchanged.
Big Ike, one of the leaders of the gang, ard
q noted desperate was killed, several Others
wounded, and twelve of the thieves taken
prisoners. Sheriff Beardsley was slightly
wounded. The Sheriff arrived at Hayes
City this morning with five OF the thieves,
one OF them Icing severely wounded, FIVE
others, three men and two women, are ex-
pected there tonight.
The deputy sheriff is bringing the cap.
tured goods, consisting of.54 head of horses,
and mules and 3 wagons.
The leaders of the thieves, Dutch Henry
and Slippery Jack, escaped.
A very heavy rain occurred here last
night. West of the city, about twelve
miles, it is said to have been the heaviest
rain fall known for twenty years. Stranger
and Carup creeks rose seven feet above the
highest water mark recorded since the set
Element of this country. Much damage
was done to corn on the bottom lands.
Many bridges were swept away. The Cen
trail Branch railroad was badly washed,
and several bridges are gone, so that no
trains have arrived or departed on that
line to-day

sEDALIA, Mo-, September 5.-The Demo-
cratic Congressional convention for the
Seventh District met here to-duy. The
candidates before the convention were John
F. Phillips, Of Pettis county; A. NJ. Lay,
of Cole Sam Ovens, of Moniteau, and
Amos Smith, Of Hickory. The first ballot
stood: Phillips, 2l i; Lay, 12i; Owens, % |;
Smith, l. The whole number of votes was
As; necessary to a choice, %. The vote
stood the same TO the 10Th ballot, when a
motion to adjourn prevailed.
At the Resembling of the convention, at
p. M, it was understood that combina-
ton had been formed to beat Phillips at
all hazards, by springing dark horse.
In pursuance of this programme, Col.
Oven and Col. Lay Withdrew their names
from before the convention, and Mr.. Belch,
of Cole county, nominated Tom Crittenden,
of johnson county.
A roll call was ordered, which was inter-
rupted by speech from Col. Phillips with
drawing his name from before the conven.
ton, as Col. Phillips went into the canvass
with the expressed understanding with Crit
tenden that he would not be . candidate
before the convention.
When Cooper county was called, it ask ed
leave to retire for consultation, and was fol-
lowed BY Pettis, Henry, St Clair and Dali
las counties. After ten minutes these coun-
ties returned and asked that the balloting
be put of till tomorrow, to hear from Crit
tenden, and if he accepted they would 90
for him. This the chairman refused to
allow. but ordered the roll call to proceed,
when three delegates from Cooper, and all

of Moniteau counties Withdrew from the

Crittenden, 23!. 1t is confidently asserted
that Crittenden will not accept the nomina-
ton, the universal expression BE-. n that if
he does he will ssultify himself nd prove
false to all assertions he has b. etofore
made with reference to the matter.
