The election Of Hon John J. ingalls, TO Il
the United States Senate on the fourth bal /
Let last Friday gives general satisfaction 10 Il
the people OF this county. An ardent ad- u
mirer OF Gov. anthony our personal choice Q
was first for that gentleman. The election !
of Mr.. Ingalls, meets with the sentiments OF q
our peoTle R0.h OF the gentlemen above ]
named were able TO do honor 10 the state, l
and believing that the will OF the msJorlty d
should rule We heartily acquiesce IN the de-
oision made. So far az we can determine
the bitterness engendered BY the contest II
this county has been aiisyed. This is as IN
should be.
HE HAS MORE THAN ORDINARY ABILITIES. .
Ellis County Star, 81
Mr.. Ingalls, our newly returned member
10 the L. ;. Senate re-epters that body with
the psst experience of six year, 10 direct
and guide his efforts in behalf OF the State
ne has heretofore so creditably represented
and whose interests be has watched with
Jealous eve. In Mr.. Ingalls, we recognize
man Of more than ordinary political u
men and eminently Possessing powers, ln-
teIlectually and socially, that create friends
and influence, and We expect and hope TO
chronicle success attending his eyery public
effort during his second term. Few men
have had more bitter opponents, or warmer
| friends, and Mr.. Ingalls, has every reason
to feel proud of his recent success.
THE BITTER PERSONAL FIGHT WAS FAIL |
URE.
! [Chsnute Times, CT
Tie has proven himself loyal to The in
terests OF our State and people during has
past term, and it is a matter OF grailhca-
ton that he il SO readily endorsed, and con-
tinued another term, when so many able
candidates we're arrayed against him Tor
the position. The campaign against him
was bitterly personal one, which was
total failure, as it certainly ought to be.
Mr.. Ingalls, goes back to the Senate, rank
ing az one Of the older members, having in
creased ability To work for the benefit OF our
State, with largely added prospects Of being
succe ssful. We are glad to record his trl-
umph. believing it will no fail 20 result
highly favorable 10 the interests of haosas,
a. well as giving the National Senate an
able and experienced member.
THE PEOPLE OF KANSAS CAN ATTEND TO
THEIR OWN BUsISEss-
TPaola Spirit Democratic.I
The Kansas City Tinlss is publishing
what it is pleased TO call black list OF the
Democratic members Of the Legislature
who voted for Senator Ingalls,. II has no.
thing TO ssy, however, against those VINO
went into the PomeIoy-Horton caucus ana
afterwards voted Tor Judge Horton. 1t oc-
ours to us that the Times policy oil thus
arraigning Democrats for supporting one
, Republican candidate in preference 10 an
other and attributing TO them corrupt mo
,iyes in SO doing, Is an impertinent inter
ference with what is none of its business.
The bitter war waged by this Missouri pa
per against Mr. Ingalls, no doubt contrib
uted largely to his reelection. There is
disposition on the part OF a great many
Kansas people to resent outside interier-
ence. believing that they are able 10 man
age their own affairs, and particularly Is
this so when the interference comes from
people whose own record is stained bv the
Mastin Bank robbery and the State Treas
urer's defalcaiion.

: This is little sudden, though not un-
+ looked for. We huye no further light on
the subject at present than this brief tele'

tigation it is evident a number OF Ingalls,

curiosity, and vIndicate Ingalls,. 1t will

i feated candidates, the kansas City Time

Justly entitled to reelection for he was
