A prominent Prohibitionist of this city,
who has hitherto taken an active part in
the Prohibition movement here, Repub.
lican Prohibtionist, by the way, has
determined that the Republican lasso
thrown over the Anna convention shall not
encompass his neck and though he had
firmly intended to cast three solid votes for
Mr., Logan, has determined now to pay
that compliment to Mr.. Sidney Greer, one
of the Democratic nominees. And he says
he may also vote for Captain Murphy.

army of poor people who are suffering for
all the comforts and many of the necessar-
les of life in the state of Kansas which
Governor st. John says is in a prosperous
condition. 1t is probable that aid will be
asked of citizens to assist the family on
their way home, in which case liberal re.
