pendent and intelligent voters OF klnsis
Since this club issued its fDrinrr address ana too1
bold stand against uIadiieisGt. bosss AMI all ths
other inns Matched BY the 81, John taciion aud
tackled onto the tail Of the Republican kite, We have
witnessed all over the State such revolt against
the head of the ticket never before known in
political warfare. The slumbering enbers of diseou
tent have sprung into blaze. and the Ohio election
has but added fuel to the flames The grand old
Republican party of Kansas will yet be united anil
march forward to new victories, but never until
John p 81 John. the Jonah of the Republican ship.
is cast into the sea- thanks to the brave men who
dare to think and act their own convictions.
John p ST. Joks's defeat is diss0S. CERTAIN. Al
ready we hear The tread of the columns
They are rallying for a cause a. grand as was ever
fought for on the field Of battle personnel liberty ,
tRot1ckt NO bossis1n
We make no warfare on the doctrines of true teln-
perance and morality but We do condemn this wind
CALLED and suayined hobby of bogus prohibition
What has il aecomplisheii IL has increased the
consumption of hsuor and added ifty per cent To-
the number Of liquor dealers in the State. II has
taken from the cities the power to control this trn
fc: and robbed them of their revenue.
Ii has increased litigation and contention in the
Courts where the liquor dealers escape and the tN
PAYERS put up for the costs
II has driven sixty thousand pcople from our
State and blocked immigration.
During a period Of unprecedented emigration Of
the aboring Glasses from the old country. Kansas
the garden State of the West. received practically
none of these people. The tide of Immigration
parted at the Mississippi River. one column hOwing
nOrthw westerly, toward Minnesota. WISCONSIN. Ne
braska and Dakota The other column toward the
southwest, to Colorado. Texas. and New Mexico.
While Kansas lost in population, these States and
Territories constantly increased.
