A MUGWUMP.

Colonel C. X. Holiday, the Democratic
candidate for lieutenant governor said in the
opers house in this city night before last, re-
ferring to the resubmissionists, I'VE are the
old-tine Republican party; the men who
are supporting John A. Martin are the old
St John prohibitionists." These words
had hardly got cold when he went on to
saw. "St. John will be home tomorrow to
take the stump against Martin and the men
who are supporting him." Putting the two
assertions together they make bright talk,
or else not. If Martin and his friends are
81. Johns friends why should St. John
want to come and defeat thems
Now what are the facts about John P.
St. Judas. II was announced that he was
coming home to take hand in the canvass,
but his committee, at Topeka, last Sstur-
day, not knowing just what to do tele-
graphed him in New York, and this was his
answer: Il can make more votes against
Blaine and for the cause, by staying in
New York than by coming home"
What would Col. Holiday have US think
of his words. Is not Col Holiday, in fact
ashamed Of himself an attitudes

MORE FROM THE DUDES.

George William Curtis dude committee
has been sending out more overtures to min
listers in this section, begging them to sign a
certificate that they will support Maria Hal
pins man. Rev. J, F. Nessley received a
batch with Cleveland's defense in which he
does not deny the charge but claims he was
only rollicking boy of thirty-fve years old
when he made love to the pretty cloak trim
mer. He had previous to that played the
hanglnan but he got nearly 5000 for each
Irishman that he swung of. Nessley replies
as follows:
MULvANE, Kans., Oct. %. "a.
Geo. W. Greene, New York City.
DEAR SIR:-1 am in receipt of the docu-
ment you sent me respecting the charges
against Grover Cleveland, with request for
me to pledge myself to his sup
port for the presidency. After
the testimony of thirty ministers of Buffalo
and other reliable witnesses who give their
personal observation and knowledge as to
the charges against Cleveland's moral
character, one, he friend of the very lib
eral Henry Ward Beecher, with but two
days in which to make his investigation, to
pronounce them false, is to my mind an as
sumption and arrogance that but few men
would have the force to attempt. regard
the presenting of Cleveland for the presi-
dency as an insult to the moral sense of the
people, and an attempt to cover what has
been proven against him is SO repugnant to
my sense Of honor that / cannot find Ian
guage to express it. Respectfully,
IF. NEssLEY.

FRAUD TELECRAMS.

EDITOR EAGLE: If not considered inn
pertinent would like to ask why the EAGLE
does not publish all Of the important dis
patches which it receives from the Associ-
ated Press. Several times of late, and
again yesterday, find in the Beacon long
dispatch from Albany, New York, an
nouncing the action of The Catholic Tele-
graph, and another, an expose of the comp
trollers department by an ex-clerk. Can't
YOU stand the truth of your own dis
patchess DEMOCRAT.
Our critic, no doubt, thought he had
struck mares nest full of whsngdoodle
eggs. The EAGLE does publish, as . rule,
al the important dispatches Of both day
and night, as furnished L by the Associated
Press. The dispatches 10 which "Demo-
crat' alludes never came to this city
over the wires, and in so far az
they make any pretentions in that direction
they are fraudulent. These dispatches emf
nate from some Democratic headqusrters,
and are published as specials in Democratic
papers east and are in no sense the non-part-
izan news given by the associate press. They
are frauds and everyone who accepts them
as non-partixan OF as an unbiased statement
of the truth is simply deceived.
As to Jerry j. Barker, the ex-clerk, who
makes such astonishing revelations, he was
formerly from Newton in this state, and is
dead beat, fraud, and wholly unreliable as
any public man in Kansas can tell you. We
wouldn't believe him on his oath in any
matter where be was interested to the
amount of . nickel. We don't care what
Democrat papers pubiish, nor whom Or how
they get their matter, but our corrsspond-
ent had better post up ard not 60 Of helf

PROFESSOR HAMMOND.

Our county superintendent of public in
struction. who was renominated, has been
so busy with his Office work that he has
been unable to make such canvass as was
expected or as he desired. Within the year
last past the number of school children has
increased by upwards of eleven hundred.
This necessitated the formation of a large
number Of new districts. The annoyance
and perplexity attending the formation OF
new districts, and the changing Of lines is
well understood. To satisfy all who may be
interested is an impossibility. But Professor
Hammond has done his level best to dc
what was for the best, taking into consider
alton the present and the future. When he
took possession of the Office there were just
eight dollars and forty-two cents of an insti-
tute fund on hand After holding two of
the most successful institutes ever held in
this county, he has now on hand one hun
dred and thirteen dollars. He manages to
save this amount largely by doing the work
of an instructor in the institute himself For
the few remaining days of the canvass he
hopes TO be able to get out and to psrtici-
pate to some extent in the lively canvass.

LAST WORD.

The weekly EAGLE goes 10 press TO-DAY.
Before another issue is printed the people of
America will have again passed upon the
great questions involving the perpetuity of
our prosperity as nation, will have said
whether the government of the United
States for the past twenty-five years has
been success or failure. II is a solemn
duty the discharging of what must not only
effect the present but the future. For
months past the issues have been discussed,
and all the interests involved presented from
every political standpoint, and, in the heat
of the campaign many hard things hsve
been said for the purpose of swaying and
prejudicing the minds of men who have for
many years pinned their faith to the princi-
piles and policies Of the party which saved the
nation in its darkest hour and which party has
SO far preserved and guided its affairs. The
Republican party is the same to-day that it
ever was, no matter what may be said of any
member of it and every vote given
against it, locally or otherwise, by Repub-
lican, will be a vote regretted, in our hum
BILE judgment, for after all the great national
party and its policies rest upon the county
and township organizs tons, for there is not
county or township in the land in which
there are not local issues at stake and in
which are not found some man or men en-
deayoring to tear down and weaken the local
organizations of the Republican party.
We have upon the one hand the party of
loyalty led by man eminent for his wisdom
and public services, and, upon the other,
the old disloyal party headed by man
known only for his weaknesses and failures.
These are the parties and the men and there
are no Others SO far as this election is con-
cerned. This being thc case il would seem
that the duty of every Republican is plain,
is to vote the entire clean ticket without SO
much as scratching the candidate for coro-
ner.
As to Sedgwick county and our local Re-
publican ticket the only thing which has
threatened it is the efforts of the dsaffected
to defeat il; the words and work of men
whose only hope of future preferment lies in
the chance Of the Democratic party coming
into power. As TO the county Republican
ticket there is not man whose name APP
pears upon it for whom any apologies need
be made. They are every one honorable,
Trustworthy and above all, men who have
on the other hand the county, senatorial and
congressional Democratic tickets are made
up, more than one-half, of men who have
gone back on their principles and are only
training with the Democratic party because
Of pe-sonslaims and ambitions.
Remember next Tuesday, and let every
Republican be true to himself

A NIGHT OF TERROR.

ID. NJ. Dale addressed the Democratic
meeting at the school house in Maud Mon
day night Although representing the sun
terrified he showed considerable uneasi-
ness, and entirely lost the thread of of his
argument on account Of heavy gust OF
wind striking the front part of the school
building. He almost Immediately closed
his Grafton, and had it not been for the
assistance of Ed. Dorsey and Burt Venable,
the meeting would have dispersed in con-
sternation. 1t was really Kansas cyclona
of human origin. John Z. Lydecker gal
lantly came to the front and pronounced
the benedction, and all went well until the
speakers started on their journey back to
Kingman. Apropos of the Democratic
party they wandered around in darkness,
and finally got into the ditch. Mr.. Dale
lost his Cleveland "tile." The livery man
whhre the orators put mp their team, acci-
dentally got on set of harness belonging to
"a Republican, ann the ponies got lost in the
hsrness.-Kingman Courier.

The New York Sun says that the news
papers which are bowling the most about
Cleveland and starting the most lies about
Blaine are the free trade Republican papers,
the New York Times and Post, and adds:
But il becomes more and more evident
that Cleveland appeals neither to the heads
nor the hearts of the Democracy. The On
~ fervor put into his canvass comes from
those Republican Independents whom he
has nominated to conciliate, and who rightly
feel that they are responsible for him.
While they are hot, Democrats are cool or
determined to have nothing to do with such
a candidate.
The sentiment which prevails among
them in this city and state especially recalls
the attitude of the Democracy toward DIR.
Greeley. They would not regard the cleo
ton of Cleveland as Democratic victory,
nor would they bewail his defeat as Demo-
cratic misfortune. This feeling, too, is
strongest with those who have been the
backbone of the party, among the work
men, among those who are most imbued
with the principles of Jefferson and Jackson
and Tilden.
The Times, therefore, is unjust 10 the
Democratic managers of Cleveland when it
rebukes their listlessness in the campaign.
They are not slothful and uninterested, but
they cannot awaken general Democratic en-
for such candidate. The people
are not with them.

WHAT SENATOR PLUMB SAYS

Senator Plumb is entirely confident Of
Blaine and Logan's election. He believes
both New York and Indiana will go Re
publican. When asked his opinion of the
political weight of the Cleveland scandals he
replied that they would seriously damage
the Democratic vote in November, and the
Republican ticket will receive the benefit Of
q positive though quiet support by the Cath
Ole priesthood. Mr.. Blaine's canvass OF
Ohio, Senator Plumb says, evidently in
creased the majority in that state over what
il would have been had the people not been
able to see and hear him. The senator be-
lieyes that Mr.. Blaine's tour Of New York
state this week will exert decidedly stimu-
lating effect upon the Republican vote

in Ohio end other states has been the readi-

NEW YORK IRlsuMEN.

All the efforts of Democratic managers to
curb the revolt Of the New York working
men are fruitless. The anti-C Cleveland Irish
Americans Of Kings county have just pub
lished a statement of their reasons, as life
long Democrats, for voting against Grover
Cleveland in the coming election. They
specify nine points against him, covering in
vigorous and tersc language the formidable
array of vital objections which are playing
such havoc among the laboring classes. and
among those who are opposed to British in
fuenee in American politics and in Ameri-
can tariff legislation. The document closes
thus: For these and many other reasons
5000 Irish-American citizens of Kings
county, who have never before voted for a
Republican nominee for president or vice.
president, will vote for james G. Blaine and
John A. Logan 1t can have no other eff
feet than to give renewed impetus to the
Cleveland revolt, which is already
everywhere rapidly spreading.

REPUBLICANS READ.
A Final Summing Up of the Cam
psign About to Close.

The Republican State Central Committee
has issued the following address:
HEADQUARTERS REPuBLlcAy STATE
CENTRAL COMMITTEE,
Topeka, Kan, October %, 1884.
To the Voters of Kansas:
When this reaches you, but few days of
the campaign will be left for work. The
state has been canvassed as never before.
Not less than two hundred meetings have
been held under the auspices of, or in con-
nection with the state central committee.
The principles upon which the Republic
can party bases its claims for a continuance
of power have been freely discussed on the
stump, by the press, and in documents of
more than ordinary value.
As result it may be truthfully said that
no issue of national or state policy has been
neglected, and there is not voter in the
state but that can intelligently cast his bal
lot.
Upon the other hand, our opponents have
traversed the state, and made their CAIN
paign upon some phase of the whisky ques-
ton, and that alone. The Army Of Lib
erty" has sent out its adjutant generals in
all quarters of the state, organizing its secret,
oath-bound political organizations, which
have no test of political principles except
opposition to men who favor the enforce
ment of the laws of the state
The Republican party presents rs its NOM
inee for president, james q. Blaine, man
whose life has been spent in the service of
his country. He has assembled step by step
from the legislature of his own state to con-
gress, when for three successive terms he
filled the most important position in that
body in such a manner as to merit the vol
untary endorsement of his political oppo-
nents. His state next advanced him to the
highest position within their gift-the senate
of the United States, from which position
the lsmented Garfield chose him as his chief
advisor, a position which, in the American
system of government, is second only TO the
In all these positions he has
proved himself the equal of any of
his predecessors, and to-day stands in histo-
ry the peer of Webster, Clay, Douglas, Sew
ard, and the great statesmen of American
history. The Republican party presents as
its candidate for vice president the ideal vol
unteer soldier of the war, John A. Logan,
For nearly a quarter of a century identi-
fed with the legislation Of the nation, and
for four years at the head OF our noble
heroes who saved the country in its tine
of peril, both our candidates are men who
may be chosen by the young men of the ma
ton as models Of our social, private and
public life. Our opponents present Grover

WHAT DID HE TAKE US FOR?

Col Holiday insulted the intelligence of
the people of Wichita when he declared in
his speech here that Geo. w. Click would
be elected by twenty thousand majority.
There is not Democrat even in Sedgwick
so dumb as TO absorb such nonsense. As to
that, there is not Democratic politician in
Sedgwick county who believes that Click
will be elected by any majority. 1t is fool
ishness to suppose that Geo. W. Click has
any show of an election. "How many fish
have YOU caught" said man to youth at
the end of rod. THE ore that's nibblin'
and FIVE more will be SIX" said the boy.
