TAE Greenback Congressional Con-
vention for the Second District Of
Kansas met at Fort Scott on Wednes.
day last. Hon. 2. P. Elder, of Frank.
lin County, received the nomination for
Member of Congress on the first ballot.
Mr.. Elder is an old citizen of Kansas,
and was a member of the old Free State
party of early days. He has held many
positions of honor and trust in the State,
and until lately, we believe, has been a
pronounced and radical Republican.
He was elected Lieutenant Governor in
1870, and was Speaker of the House du-
ring the session of the Legislature in
1877. We are frank enough to admit
that SO far as our limited knowledge OF
Kansas men and politics goes, our Green
back friends have made good nomi-

NOT WELL POSTED.

The Democrats of the Second Distric,
are quite lively just now. They thinl
that there is pretty good show for theil
congressional candidate this time, and il
they are ready to work diligently, there
probably is. If the Republicans bring
no better man than Haskell into the
field, the opposition stand . fair chance
Of victory.-Tepeha Blade.
The Blade man is evidently not we'll

the Second District. Mr.. Haskell is
here generally believed to have made an
able and efficient Member Of Congress.
and his course in that body hss been
quite unacceptable to our people at large,
WITHOUT regard to party, Is that Of any
man WHO has ever represented the dis
trict. That he will be sepomiuated
without serious opposition, is already a
foregone conclusion, AND, We think that
his election by handsome majority is
equally certain.

subject worthy the best talent In the country-the
honest yeOmaury-the bone and muscle Of the
country-upon whom depends all other classes-
that is very well put, for it 10 true, that from the
President down to the humblest Individual, all
depend upon the yeomanry for support. With
out them, our army and navy would be q failure,
and the wheels OF government would cease to
run And now, will draw y comparison be-
tween the farming and the other Industrial pur-
suits Of the country. 1t is but right to give all
justice in its proper place. For instance, the
saw and gristmill, the factory, the tn reshing-
machine, aud even the sewing machine, all have
one master wheel, by which all the other wheels
ars made to run. and without which all the
other wheels would be useless. The yeOmanry
represent the master wheel; those who follow
other occupations, the inferior wheels, and the
latter depend on the former for the power neces-
sary to Keep them in motion.
Now. 1t iswell to have all things move on har-
monious. The yeomanry Is the class from whence
sprung all our ablest Observation-Disclosures, Clay,
Calhoun, Cass, Douglas, and many others as
good rs they; but no man ever attained position
so high that he could look down upon the yeo-
manry Of the country. They are the foundation
fare of state nation. The schooI-Inaster and
the preacher, going hand in hand with the pio-
neer to settle and civilze the country, are good
men in their place, but suppose all had been
that kind of men, our country would yet be q
wild looking place. But there came the hard
listed yeomanry, not fearing to face the hard
ships OF the frontier, and settle upon the wide
prairie, with hoe, spade and shovel in hand have
made this country what it now is. But will
all the officers Of the government are IN their
places, then may come the preacher, the school,
MASTER the merchant, the doctor, the mechanic,
and the lawyer.

Response by Hon. Thos w. Bartlett:
Mfr. President, and Ladies aud Gentlemen:
] will first speak of the presence of the power
of the army throughout our nation. The pres
ence of this power is seen in the preservation of
the various industries OF the conntry-agricul-
turil, manufacturing, mining and transpOrta-
ton. Ii protects each individual in property,
in person and in character. 1t maintains all
public enterprises, by collecting the public reve
nues of the general government, state, county
and township taxes. Its protection of the coun-
try, for more than i century, is the browning act
of Its glory.
The navy Is noted no less for its diffusion than
for its strength. 1t protects, not only the COM
merce of our extensive line of sea-cOast, but it
maintains the right Of the hardy fisherman,
while he clsts his lines amid the dark fogs of the
coasts of Labrador, or on the cold waters of the
North Pacific; il protects the whaemen in their
dangerou. toll; carries the stars and stripes amid
the spicy islands of the South Pacific: is terror
to any parties who damage our commerce at any
harbor or inlet upon the West India Islands;
guards tie interests of our citizens in the various
cities of Europe: protests our merchantmen on
the whole Asia.ic coast, and by its presence,
everywhere declares that the United States is

brave ~
