s.THAT CONVENTION"

An article bearing the above heading
was contributed to the Herald last week
in which an attempt was made to cas-
ridicuie upon the Republican convention
held one week ago last Saturday, and
extoi the acts Of the Democratic county
county convention hold last Thursday
Tho writer did bis best to take from the
convention the odium of democracy
and mako of it sort of Peoples con,
vention, in which there was an assem
bly, of compressed and outraged" people
gathered without respect to
party or clique to make ticket, and re-
buke the "put pjob" of the Republican
convention.
His article will have no weight tor
several reasons: First, The convention
was q Democratic convention, called to.
gcther by Democratic Central Com
mitteo, and to which no delegates OK
cept Democrats were admitted. Its
ticket will be known as the Democratic
ticket, and should it be successful, Sa-
line county will have the. reputation Of
having gone Democratic. Second, II
the convention was 80 freely participa.
ted in by the people without respect to
party, and so warmly endorsed all over
the county, why has still another ticket
been put in the field, which has very
strong following? Third, ls it cot cas-
Ter tor only about twcnty five delegates
(the number OF the Democratic conven-
tom to "gerrymander" and "Eut up
jobs than for seventy delegates (the
number in the Republican convention).
Fourth, The writer himself shows by
hls communication that he is some sore
head Republican who could not carry
his point in tho Republican convention,
and henceis trying to ''put Up jobs" on
the ticket nominated.

TIE CANDIDATES FOR REPRESENTA-.
TIVE.

The candidate for Representative on
the Democratic ticket, Judge John Fos-
ter, is one of the very best and purest
mon in Saline county. After an &C.
qusintance with him, extending for q
period of over eight years, we can say
that he is an honest, able and good mar.
We have no better friend in Saline coun
" to-day than John Foster. We could
support him heartily for some positions,
but not for the Office Of representative.
He is . Democrat and boldly avows his
Democratic principles. For the Office OF
Representative il is not sSfc to vote for
a Democra6. The Democrats of Kansas
arc better organized than ever before,
and will elect moro Representatives
than they ever have before. The "Gresn-
hackers" or "Nationals" will elect
many representatives. When the time
comes for electing o S. Senator, the
Democrats and "Greenbsckers" and
mNationals" will all unite in the COM
mon cause of voting against the Repub-
lican candidate for that Office. Their
man will undoubtedly be Democrat.
And John Foster, if elected, will vote
for their man.
Mr.. C. e. Faulkner, Independent can.
didate for the Office Of Representative,
has slendid record, and has proved
himself ono of the ablest and most prom.
ising of the young mon of Central and
Western Kansas. We might heartily
support him for this or any other po-
sition, under other circumstances, bot
We cannot now. He should have made
his fight before the Republican conven-
ton. To run at this juncture places the
Republican cause in jeopardy, as it is
possible that Judge Foster may DO elec-
ted in tho triangular fight. Capt Mohler
is the nominee of our party, and is en-.
titled to the undivided, unqualified, un.
reserved support of ali Republicans.

The COnfiding Man.

| A solitary lady was going up on Cass
avenue Car yesterday, smiling as if she
believed all the world at peace, when a
man with a handkerchief bound around
his head got aboard and sat opposite her.
He doubtless thought that some explana-
ton should be made for his appearance,
and he suddenly said:
MADAM, was not run over by a
butcher-cart."
She made no reply, and he presently
continued:
"And l didn't fall down stairs"
She looked out of the window as it
she didn't care whether he had gone
down through bridge or been blown
up. He moved around uneasily and then
whispered:
"Twas a family fght-worst conflict
you ever saw-most beat tornado! You
look thin and weak and pale, and l don t
mind telling you how the old woman
always"
"Will you mind your businessa" called
the driver, as he opened the door.
81 will!' was the soft reply, "but l
want to tell this lady how she can wal
lop the old man every time he gets sassy
and signs for terrific conflict, you see.
When one O. these family fights occurs
there is always some pre-"
II want you to stop!" shouted the
driver.
81 WILL will, but first let me say
that there is always some preliminary
jawing and sassing around. If the wo-
man is sharp she will keep jawing as
she backs for the tire-shovel--keep jaw
ing and Distinguishing and backing"
I'll put you off the carl" exclaimed
the driver, as he Topped the lines over
the brake.
keep jawing back till you get hold
of the fiie-shovel!" said the stranger
Then carefully sneak along and sneak
along, and while he is calling you hye-
naess and you are calling him a savage,
you want TO-"
"Otf with you--right off'n this carl"
said the driver, as he grappled him.
81 will III go. but, madam, don't for
get to sneak along, and sneak along"
He was off the car by that time. He
stood in the middle of the street, and as
the car started, he turned his head in and
hosrsely shouted:
"Strike for all you're worth when you
bit him! It's the fist blow that counts.
If you can stun him on the start the
victory is"
The driver made for him, and he re-
treated to the curbstone. When the car
started again he leaned forward and
called out:
"'Sh say nothing! What l have told
you is in strict confidence! Hit him over
the ear and the scalp will peel clear
around "-DetroH Free Press.

that steamboats, and railroads were marks
of declining civilization. Stage-coaches

the answer.

Another Wonderful Invention.

Probably most people who have heard
of the marvellous powers of the tele-
phone have thought that after this nc
improvement upon it can be discovered
Yet, almost before we have begun to ac-
cept the telephone as a great fact, another
invention fairly eclipses it.
Mr. Thomas A. Edison has invented a
machine that records speech, and that
can be made to produce the same Ian
guage, just as it was pronounced, days
or years afterwards.
This machine he calls the talking pho
nograph, because it records or writes
graph the sound (phonO) spoken into
its mouthpiece, and repeats the sound in
an audible tone, at the pleasure of the
operator.
We shall not attempt description of
this machine, which could not be made
clear without cuts and diagrams; but we
may say that its principle is like that of
the telephone, 50 far rs it is based upon
the transfer of sound from one diaphragm
or Mate OF metal to another and similar
plate.
The value of this photograph may be
very important, but the machine can
hardly be put to so many practical uses
as the telephone. Still, it is not at all in
ferior, even to Prof. Bells instrument, as
a marvel and triumph of human invent
i've genius.

The Untitled Land.
ALTERED FROM DUGANNE.


The water hath fish, and the land hath flesh,
And the air hath many bird;
And the soil is teeming DER the earth,
And fruits grow fair in many lands,
Yet millions of hands want acres,
And millions of acres want hands.
Sunlight and breeze and gladstone flowers
Are DER the earth spread wide,
And Nature gave these gifts to men,
To all who on earth abide.
The soil lies falow, the woods grow rank,
Yet idle the poor man stands.
All, millions of hands want acres,
And millions of acres want hands.
IT'S writ that we SHOULD not muzzle the OK
That treadeth out the corn"
Yet behold, we shackle the poor mans limbs,
That all earth's burdens have borne!
The land is the gift of Nature to man,
And labor is Natures command,
Yet millions of hands want acres,
And millions of acres want hands.
Who hath ordained that the few should hoard
Their millions of useless gold,
And rob the earth of its fruits and flowers,
While protitless soil they hold?
Who hath ordained that the parchment scroll
Shall fence round miles of lands,
When millions of hands want acres?
And millions of acres want hands?
IT'S glaring lie on the face of day,
This robbery of mems rights!
IT'S lie that the face of Nature disowns!
IT'S a curse that burns and blights,
And twill burn and blight till the people rise
And swear while they burst their bands,
That hands heuceforth shall have acres,
And the acres henceforth have hands.

THERE is some possibility that the
movement in Massachusetts, to extend the
suffrage to tax-paying women will be
successful 1t is stated that in Boston
alone there are 1900 of these who own
property which amounts in the aggregate
to 100000. There are now organic
ing to push upon the Legislature of that
State their claim for u voice in the gov
eminent Of that city. 1t is stated as
significant that the tax -paying women of
Massachusetts are now for the first time
taking an interest in the suffrage ques-
ton, and that the strength of the move
ment is due to the fact that this conserv-
alive element, which has hitherto refused
as women the privileges they now de-
mand as tax payers.-Toleds Blads.

A WEST HILL man invented machine
that beats the telephone. 1t would en-
able him to tell whether man was ly-
ing to him, when the owner of the ma
chine asked for five dollars till Monday.
The first day it was completed, and be-
fore he had time to test it, he thought
Iessly put it in his pocket, and when he
went home to dinner his wife asked him
for $a.15 to buy some things for the
children, and he said he had Just had
to borrow 800, to pay a note, and didn't
have II cent to his name, and didn't know
how he was going to pull through the
week without going into bankruptcy.
And his Mortified wife stared at him for
moment in speechless amazemcnt, and
then shrieked, "Oh, you dreadful liar
and you have $40 in your vest pocket,
and check for SIS and two money
orders in your pocket book this
precious minute oh. oh, oh !" and he had
to come down, but he was afraid to ask
her how she found out, and went right
out ana threw the internal machine in
the well. The great trouble was that
1t would work both ways.
