Re-Submission.

The Democrats of LeavenwOrth coun-
ty held their Convention last Monday
and nominated a full ticket, Col. Ihos:
Moonlight being nominated for Sheriff
on the first ballot by reclamation. AS
the Democratic Conventions OF other
counties had done before, the LeaYen-
worth Democrats passed a resolution
strongly favoring the re-submisslon OF
the prohibitOry amendment to the peo-
pie. This issue, in the several counties,
will be watched with great interest, as
it will decide whether or not the people
are still in favor of prohibition.

Kansas Agriculture.

The report of the Kansas State Board
of Agriculture for August is received,
and continues to exhibit the agriculture
of Kansas as in most prosperous con-
dition. The yield of all the crops is
turning out better than was anticipated
and the prospects of the farmers are
very fiattering. The movement of the
grain east has already begun and the
returns for it will soon make them feel
rich and prosperous.
The people of Kansas will have So
600 900 more bushels of corn this year
than last. Oats, though injured some
what by the rains, is an excellent crop.
Grass, both prairie and cultivated, is
20 per cent better than last year. SOr-
ghum improved throughout August land

Amusements.

Our amusement loving people are to
be particularly favored next week, and
too much praise cannot be given to Mr..
Harrison BOnebrake, the manager Of the
Opera House, for his successful efforts
to give Abilene three first class enter
tainments during the Fair. On Tues
day andWednesday evenings, Sept. 18th
and 26th, the Fay TempletOn Company
will appear before the footlights of
Bonebrake's Opera House. Tuesday
evening, "MaScOtte' will be rendered,
and for Wednesday evening the audi
ence will be allowed to select from the
repertoire of the company's plays. 1t is
needless for the REFLECTOR to say
that Fay TempletOn will crowd the
Opera House both evenings.
Thursday evening, the 9th, Comley's
Comedy Company will present Amerl-
cas- greatest comedy-tlrama, 1.-The
Princess Chuck" This company played
in the ellis Opera House at Kan
sas City last week, and the ladies
of st. Joseph were thoroughly captiva-
ted by Lizzie Harold, the winsOme SOU
brette. In private life she is Mrs. W.
J. COmley. the mother of wonderful
ten weeks old boy who travels with her.
A st. Joseph paper says: Her rooms
at the Pacific Hotel have been besieged
by callers anxious to see the little Sprite,
who has and will during the season
travel thousands of miles and have
shown their appreciation of her devo-
ton as mother and qualities as an ac-
tress by filling the opera house each
evening and wildly applauded her. On
Tuesday one bOquet was thrown over
the fOOtlights with silver rattle en-
closed for that dear baby boy.

From the subjoined, which we cir
from the IRdependeat OF the 9th instant,
ii will be seen that our neighbors at
Santa Barbara were subjected to a very
unpleasant experience last Monday
night:
The excessive heat of yesterday was
succeeded by even period OF greater
heat and unpleasantness last evening.
Between six and seven O'Clock the wind
began blowing quite n gale from the
north, but was so warm as to be almost
suifocating.
Great clouds of dust and sand We're
borne along by the wind, Down over
the mountains came the wind, heated az
if from u great conhagration near by.
All night long the heat continued
While the winds had subsidized almost
entirely by morning, yet the unpleasant
ness was more or less distressing. The
oldest settlers say that never before was
such a warm night known 1t is too
early as yet to know what effect these
blasts will have upon the growing cereal
and fruit crops. Its thought, however.
that little damage has been done. Much
of the hay that has been cut and was in

that considerable trouble will be neces.

third day of the heated spell, and some
predict that fog will follow tomorrow

WHEN the San Jose Times denounces
the Hon. b. ID. Murphy, one of the Sen.
ators from Santa Clara county, and q
gentleman supposed to be interested in
the proprietorship of the San Jose Her
aid, as wearer OF the Railway collar, il
shows to what farcical extremes devo-
ton to single idea may lead otherwise
well balanced people. Few men possess
the confidence of rational citizens in a
higher degree than Mr.. Murphy; and it
so happens that he is placed pecuniarily
so absolutely above sordid consdera
tons that the suggestion, especially
when regard is had to his high personal
character, that he is unduly influenced
from any quarter, is simply ridiculous.
The probability is that, at the present
juncture, Mr.. Murphy regards it ms high
ly indecent to attempt to influence the
course of the Railway Commissioners by
public clamor, and in that he is right.
Should that body prove to have done
nothing, six months from now, Senator
Murphy, in common with all other hon.
est Democrats, would doubtless be found
joining in temperate rebuke OF their
inaction, which would then have taken
on the phase Of apostaoy to their pledges
and party. Even the Railway Commits
sioners ought to have chance to show
the stuff they are made of.

a Permanent Divorce.

The Republican leaders see, and un.
doubtedly with great dismay, that so.
called temperance is certain to be a
leading factor in the next Presidential
election. The sensible people who have
made success possible for that party
realize that they are between the devil
and the deep blue sea. II they pro-
nounce for tho prohibition crowd they
will lose tho votes Of all the liberal
elements of their pariy-the votes OF
the men who believe that sumptuary
laws in any shape are understandable,
unjust and ineffective. On the other
hand, should they fail to throw n tub
10 the so-called temperance whale, that
element, which is large in tho Republi'
can, but uncomfortable in the Demo
cratic party, will put up ticket OF its
own. From whatever point they Wow
the situation, disaster threatens them
The HERALD has repeatedly pointed out
tho fact that the true keynote to Re-
publican success during twenty years
laid in the German vote, and that vote
they have utterly lost in many Of the
States. There has not been year
since the Republican party came into
existence when n general detection OF Its
German constituents would not have
beaten II in such States as Ohio, Penn.
sylvanin, New York, Indiana and
Illinois. Even Kansas elected Demo
cratic Governor last Fall under stress of
tho temperance agitation. while Iowa,
as result of the adoption of her new
prohibitory State Constitution. elected
five more Democratic Congressman than
had ever before been returned in her
history. The German has now not only
become distrustful. but he is genuinely
alarmed. When, originally, no allied
himself with the Republican party, he
supposed that that organization was all
that its name implied. Its crusade
against slavery helped to confirm this
delusion. But the Teuton has taken
new soundings. He sees his personal
liberty threatened by men whose true
character no had not understood. 1t is
largely this fact which explains the phe-
nomenal Democratic maiorities in New
York, California and other States, and
which converted Los Angeles county
into solid Democratic constituency,
after having given Garfield n plurality
over Hancock. In this State, particu.
larly, with our but partially developed
wine and brandy interests, it behooved
us to take an early and determined
stand against tho thin entering wedge
Of the temperance fanatcism. The issue
has been splenddly met and there is nc
doubt but that the lesson will be re
peated. The German and Latin race
voters of California, in thu main, are
through with the Republican party.
