the agricultural king, Is developing
considerable strength for the Republic
can nomination for Governor.
From the Beloit Gazette.
VIM. Bishop. of Salina, Superintend
ent of Instruction for the county Of
Saline, Is announced a Q candidate fol
State Superintendent of Public In.
struction. He was formerly connect
ed with Highland University, Doni.

as an educator.
From the Kansas City Journal.
Mr.. Blaine will NO doubt take an
early occasion to authorize Q denial Of
the report that Jay Gould Is deeply In.
terested In securing his nomination by
the Chicago convention. Mr.. Gould's
partisan support In matter Of 80 much
Importance would be looked upon with
so much suspicion that his cause would
certainly suffer thereby.
From the Hisvstha Dispatch.
The friends Of Senator Henry. OF
Abilene, are using that gentleman q
name in connection with the Govern.
orship. Mr.. Henry has . good repu.
tatiOn and Is q good man. but we think
that Senator Morrill,, Of this county,
by reason Of his acknowledged abili-
ties, his many public services, his per
feet familiarity with state aflhirs, and
his long residence In the state, Il bet
ter qualified for and entitled to the
nomination, than any other person yet
sDOken of for the DOaifiOn.
From the Russell Record.
The time has arrived when candl-
dates for the various state oflces are
being talked of, and, among the rest,
quite q number Of candidates for Gov.

among whom Il Hon. T. c. Henry, Of
Abilene. Senator Henry il pre-emi.
nently q man Of the people, Q practical
business man with excellent executive
abilities, q man ofliberal' broad views,
and clear record. II there Ii any
thing in location II IL In Mr.. Henry's
favor; and while we have nothing to
say against any other candidate, we
think there are many Arguments to be
used in favor of Hon. T. {. Henry.
And since the proceedings have end.
cd, the Honorable member Of Congress
for this district has been sending BUSH
els of the scurrilous' brief of the Mem
Orialists to Kansas under his frank, In
direct violation Of the laws Of Congress
and defrauding the revenues OF the
postOffice department Of two cents
upon each copy. They are not public
they are not published BY
Of Congress. They were
printed ut the expense Of the Memo
