The papers all over the country are
publishing that the delegates from the
second and third Congressional Dis
tricts, at the late State convention,
each held conventions after the ad-
journment of the State convention.
This is mistake. But q small num-
her of the delegates from the second
district responded to the call for q
meeting, and those that did attend
simply appointed an "advisory COM
mittee" and adjourned. The report
that they had selected Grant delegates
to the Chicago Convention was sent
out to encourage the Grant boom in
other States.

Last week in speech at Mansfield,
Ohio, his home, Secretary Sherman
publicly announced that he was cam
didate for the nomination of the Re
publican convention as their candidate
for the Presidency. He announced
himself as a candidate, and defined bis
position in 81 straightforward, manly
way, the effect of which will be to in
crease his chances for the nomination.
He also stated that unless the delegates
from his own State to Chicago were
united for him, his name would never
90 before the convention with his con-
sent.

ALWAYS Unreliable.

The Interstate, although unfiinch-
ihgly Democratic, is the first paper in
the county to furnish correct list OF
delegates from Kansas to the Republic
can National Convention at Chicago.
THE REGISTER blundered in the at
tempt and the Union missed the marx
entirely.
"Reliable"r as usual. THE REGISTER
published the names correctly, tele-
graphed from Topeka by our own cor
respondent. The errors were all cor
rected in time to send to our subscrib-
ers. A few of our exchanges may have
received wrongly printed list.

The people of Indiana voted on sew
eral constitutional amendments last
Monday, and adopted them all. The
most important one was that requir-
ing all voters ip the State to register
at their place of voting certain length
of time before the election. This will
prove very inconvenient to Democratic
voters in Indiana who live across the
Ohio river in Kentucky.

A terrible storm visited southeastern
Kansas last Friday afternoon. A reg
ular cyclone passed near Girard, de-
stroying everything in its course. A
number of houses and other buildings
were completely demolished, killing
one man and severely wounding
number of other persons. The storm
was accompanied by rain and hail, the
hail being very large. At and In the
vicinity of TT. Scott no damage was
done by the wind, but the hail storm
was the heaviest ever known there,
breaking windows, seriously injuring
stock and doing great damage to the
fruit trees. At Garrett the hail storm
was also severe, breaking window
glass and injuring fruit trees. At OF
tawa the storm was q regular cyclone,
which extended for about three miles,
and in its course demolished several
houses, and injured q great many more.
No one was killed, but quite num-
Der were severely wounded. The de-
Dot at Ottawa was badly damaged. and
some cars were lifted off the track and
dropped at the side of it, severely in
juring one of the passengers. 1t seems
almost miraculous that SO many per-
sons escaped uninjured who were tn
the houses that were totally wrecked.
All over the eastern part of the State
rain and hail prevailed, but no serious
damage has been reported, except as
above. In some places the hail meas
ured from five and half to six inches
in circumference.

The Republican papers in the State
that have been helping in the Grant
movement are just now engaged IN
explaining why the State convention
Mt Topeka last week sent Blaine dele.
gates to the Chicago Convention. In.
stead of giving the true reason, which
is that a large majority of the Repub-
licans in Kansas are in favor Of the
nomination of James G. Blaine, they
are framing all kinds Of absurd excuses

The Texas State convention that Sc
lected delegates to the Chicago Con-

as a unit. And it turns out since the
adjournment of the convention that a
majority of the delegates are in favor
of Blaine. Not 80 much of Grant
boom in Texas as was at first reported.
