The legislature at its last session put
three separate and distinct propositions
before the people which will have to
be voted for or against at the next gen.
eral election. The first proposition is
that we vote for or against conven-
ton to change and revise the constitu-
ton of the state. The people must
bear in mind if they vote for this prop
osition that in doing SO they vote to
eXpend at least half million dollars,
for constitutional convention certain
ly will not cost less than that amount.
The second proposition is to amend
section of article II of the constitu-
ton, striking out the clause exempting
two hundred dollars personal property
from taxation. Third proposition !:
"Article Is shall be amended by add
ing section 10 thereto, which shall read
as follows: THE manufacture and
sale of intoxicating liquors shall for
ever be prohibited in this state, except
for medicine, scientific and mechanical
purposes

In Earnest.

We think that every one who has been in the
habit OF attending Conventions in Kansas, and
who have been in Topeka for the past two days
will agree with US, that there has never met in
this State set of representative men, who in
their general appearance and conduct have eX-
hibited more ability and character than those
now here in attendance on the State Democratic
Convention. They seem to be men of nerve,
have OratOrical power, and great intelligence,
and show unmistaken signs OF belief not only in
their party but in themselves. They show their
nerve by calling their State Convention to NOM
mate candidates for State officers, without watt
ing the action of the Republican party. This
opposition has waited till the Republicans made
their nominations and then would get together
all of the opposing elements they could and make
not waited for the action of Republicans, but
come in style which shows that they have faith
in themselves and their party. There is no CO.
quoting with Greenbackers or sore headed Re-
publicans. On the contrary, the very fact that
they have called their State Convention thus
early, shows that they intend to make their can
vass on the principles of the party to which they
belong, and it is just to state, which they be-
lieve to be for the best interests OF the country
There is among them an element that has new
er attended Conventions in this State Among
them we find men who have had much political
experience in other States, but have been ignOr-
ed by the party in the State. 1t has been said
that the leaders of the Democratic party in the
past in Kansas have not desired recruits-that
they desired to keep the party small, SO that, in
the event OF national success, they could control
its patronage.
There is such feeling yet among some of the
old leaders, but the young blood in the party
has come to the front, and in effect told the old
barnacles, that they must stand aside, and let
the live, active, wide awake men of the party
run the machine.
We believe that we are stating what is patent
to every man who has mixed with the gentlemen
from other parts of the State now in the city
Uuder such state of facts what is the duty of the
Republicans of Kansas? Should they not sink all
disputes about Amendments, - aud other side
issues, and confine themselves strictly to a dis
cussion Of the principles which divide the two
parties. Republicans should select as their
standard bearers men Of recognized ability, and
of high character, men who will discuss the
principles of the party on the stump and be able
to cope with those on the opposite side who will
be pitted against them.
If bad nominations are made, the large major
ity we have may be greatly reduced. 1t certain
ly will be unless We make no mistakes. The
Democrats believe that they will elect their
President; they know that ordinarily they are
in helpless minority in this State, and this
will nerve them to put in nomination their very
best men, men who are strong on the stump and
have clear record. Let the Republicans do the
same .-I0pek0 C0mm0niceGAh.

Come Home. Bows.

The proceedings of the late Demo.
cratic State convention almost fully
confirms the truth of our prediction
made long ago, that there is not now
and never will be the least chance for
preferment in the Democratic party,
Of such men as Col. Tom. Moonlight
of Leavenworth, Capt. w. G.. Jones
and n. F. Acres of lola, and many
others through the State, to occupy
very CONSPICUOUS positions in the DEM
ocratic party. So soon as there is the
least possibility Of success, or as soon
as success can be conceived as possible
in the fertile brain of an old Bourbon,
they invariably flock to conventions
and claim from the fact of their al
ways having been a Democrat, and
particularly on account of their anti
war record) that they should be hon
ored with all the first positions in the
gift of the convention.
For instance, we learned that Col,
Jones wished to be a delegate to the
Cincinnati convention, and he perhaps
thought that Judge Goodin, whom he
had supported for Judge three terms,
for Congress twice and Governor once
lin fact had been one of the Judges
warmest and most enthusiastic sup
porters-would reciprocate. But this
would not have been in keeping with
fossil ideas and modern recruit (espec-
tally one with Col. jones' war record
as commanding officer of the old 10th
at Columbia, Franklin, Nashville and
Mobile) could not have such an en-
dorsement; for the Judge wanted TO
90 himSelf-and SD threw alternate tn
the recruit.
This we presume will satisfy Col.
Jones that he simply lacked the requi-
site record Of hailing from the Sni Hills
or an anti-war record.
Colonel, take the well-timed advice
of Judge Norton, of Lawrence, when
in his little poem to you, he said:
Turn We, o turn We, for why will We stay,
When friends are all marching in Legion this
way;
The Spirit invites you, the cold Flag'' says
"cOme."

THE 00NVICTs.
N. q. States.


The sensational report of convict
who had served his term ont, printed
recently in the morning papers, did not
impress MS rs worthy Of belief, and, to
asc u common expression, We "took no
stock in it," The report made by u
representative Of the Democrat in that
journal this morning jnstilics our want
of faith in the convict's story.
From tho report Of the Democrats
representative, it seems that the con
victs arc cXccllcntly well fed, Indeed,
their bill of fare is much better than
two-thiuls of the honest working men
and their families in this city enjoy.
All the work II convict is capable Of is
cxactcd of him. This is right. The
pcnitcntiary birds arc dcprcdators upon
society they arc iorgcrs, thieves, en-
bczzlcrs and murercrs, and when they
are caught and convicted they ought to
be made to do all the work they posi-
bly, can do. Many of them ought to
have their nccks broken on the gallows
instead of being comfortably clothed
and well fed with the simple condition
that they shall behave themselves and
labor to the extent of their capacity.
The shooting of Bcrkcry seems to us
entirely Unsuitable. lie refused to work;
said in fact he would rather dio than
work. He attempted to escape and be-
conc again dcprcdator upon society,
and to prevent his escape he was shot
down.
Many brave and patriotic soldier has
been shot down for a breach of military
discipline. Why then this sympathy for
% convicted malcfactor IL may be u
question whether or not tho comvCts
should be worked outside the walls of tho
ponitcntiary.
But the State has permitted this to hc
done, and has boon virtually party to
this system Of working the convicts. In
our opinion, they had better be worked
lit this way, on works requiring moro
labor than can be had, than to work
thcm inside thn ucuitnuiiorv i'm mnuu
facting articles that come in direct cont
petition with honest labor.
Undoubtedly tho killing should be in
qurcd into. But VIC confess, until it be
shown that the shooting was not ncccs-
sary to prevent tho escape of the convict
VIC arc unable to work up any indigna-
ton over the event. We shall defer
further comment until the Governor has
obtained an official report Of the affair.

A POSSIBLE RELIC OF DE SOTO.

The Tallahassee (FIa) FIoridian says:
A tow years ago, about two miles east of
Tallahassee, was found q ponderons
spur, of unique and curious Workman
ship, the like Of which has not been
seen in modern times. The bur was one
and half inches is diameter and the
bar proportionately heavy. On either
side of the rowcl dangled small pendant
bells, that gavo forth tinkling sound
in response to each step Of the wearcr-
doubtless some stecl-clad and bonnctcd
warrior of the long ago. Not many days
since, while parties were blowing near
the identical spot, asolid shapclcss mass
was turned up, which, upon close exam
nation, proved to be an iron stirrup OF
ancient pattern, as heavy and as mas
sivo in proportion as the spur spoken of
first, and firmly imbcdded in thick
coating of clay and rust. When this
was removed, tho stirrup was found
to be in remarkably good state of pres
ervation. The sides represent two Eth
opian figures standing upon the foot
rest, leaning forward facing each other,
while they support with outstrctched
arms what forms the top of the stirrup,
or that part which is connected with
the leather. So unlike are both these
relics to anything known to the genera
tions of this day and time, and both
being found so near the same place, it is
not unreasonable to ascribe them to the
same era and individual. Nor is the
supposition at all improbable that one
of the knightly followers of De Soto,
lurcd on through this then unknown
region and wilderness, like that daunt-
less son of Spain, by thirst tor the
