counties. In some Of the counties
clear west, such as Cheyenne for IN
stance, where there are but few PEG
pie, they will be able to get through
as there are antelopes and jack rao
bits to be caught.
The people in the towns In some
of the counties claim that there IS no
destitution that cannot be relieved
by those who are better of. ct III
some of these counties the governor
has on file letters which satisfy him
that sOme people are actually IN a
starving condition, gaunt, hollow
eyed women and children, who have
lived good while on nothing but
corn meal, and in some instances
parched corn.
In the counties along the lines OF
the railroads thousands have already
LETT, being given passes to get into
the eastern part otthe State, where
they could get employment, and
where there is plenty of food and
warm hearts and liberal hands.
There is no doubt that there is
suffering there equal to that in Ire
land, and humanity requires that it
be relieved
The meeting we refer to was or
gained by making n. G. Mcfarland
chairman, and +. r. Baker secretary.
Every one present agreed that some
thing must be done at once, and they
also agree that Kansas must take
care OF its own poor. 1t was thought,
however, but just that Kansas City
and st. Joseph, two cities which
have large trade in Kansas should
be asked TO assist. The governor
estimates that eastern Kansas has
sent into the destitute parts
of Kansas 100000 pounds Of provi-
sions, but he also thinks that all is
wanted to procure all that is needed
is such an organization at will sat
isfy the people that what is given
will reach those in need.
1t seemed to be the general idea
that, there should be State central |
with but little machine
ry. and then auxiliary organizations
IN each of the older counties OF the
State. To effect this organization
consisting OF DIR. McCabe,
VI. Ellsworth, john Martin, w. H.
Rossington and j. K Hudson were
appointed, and agreed to meet at 5
o'clock last evening. Our local col
lr,ns will - ba nlve the result

Yirginia Polities.

The Virginia regular Conservatives
(Democfats) held State convention in
May and elected delegates to the Cincin-
natl convention and also put an electoral
ticket in the field. The Readjuster Dem
oerats refused to affiliate with the regulars
and called another State convention, which
met on Wednesday in Richmond. Han
cock and English were enthusiastically
endorsed and an electoral ticket, pledged
TO vote for the Cincinnati nominees, was
nominated There are, therefore, two
Democratic electoral tickets in Virginia.
The Republicans have an electoral ticket
in the field, also, and are hopeful of sue.
cess on account Of Democratic division.
The Readjusters and Debt-Payers are
nearly equal in numbers, and with the Re
publican vote withdrawn from the Read
justers, the regular Democrats claim they
can carry the State 10 November BY 90
900 majority.
Virginia Readjusters are actuated more
BY the spOils Of Office than by principle.
They held aloof from national politics to
see how the tide Of popular favor was run
ming. Had the Republicans nominated
Grant and the Democrats less popular
ticket than Hancock and English, the
leaders would have adhered to their origi.
nal plan and nominated an unpledged
