and surviving widow,
The Emporia weekly news. [volume] (Emporia, Kan.) 1881-1889, 1884-08-28

EmpOrIs should go en- masse to the
Great Western National fair ana the
Grand Old Settler meeting at Bismarck
during next week. The rate OF fare on
the railroad Is wonderfully low, being
only one cent per mile and the expense
Of attendance will consequently be so
slight that we can all afford to enjoy the
pleasure. 1t will be positive delight
TO many of our older citizens to meet
hundreds of others of the old pioneers
and rehearse the thrilling experiences of
early days in Kansas, while everyone
will enjoy the addresses by such promi-
nent men as General John A Logan,
Senator John J. Ingalls, and many 9TH
ers. The Bismarck Fair, we are posi-
lively assured, will not only exceed all
previous efforts but Will be far In adj
vance of any other fair in this section Of
the country this year and it will be q
source of profit az well as pleasure for Is
many as possible OF our citizens to at
tend and see the displays of stock, sgri.
cultural products, etc.
We hope Emporia will be we'll repre-
sented at the great gathering of Kansans
and that very large number of people
from. this city and county will spend one
or more days at the fair. Such gather
ings and enterprises are credit to our
state and our people should show their
appreciation by large attendance.
The Emporia weekly news. [volume] (Emporia, Kan.) 1881-1889, 1884-08-28

There is one thing above all others
upon which the management of that
greatest of great expeditions, the West
ern National Fair prides itself this year
and that is the fact that Its display oil
live stock will not only surpass and cx.
eel beyond comparison every similar ex
hibitiOn In the west this year, but will
actually be one of the grandest and mOst
magnificent aggregations of noble specI
mems OF horses and cattle Of sll varietie:
and breeds that was ever gathered to
geiher in this country.
Il ia extremely fitting that in Kansas
which is fast becoming the greatest stoch
state in the Union, this marvellous dis
play should be made and the introduction
which il will give our people TO high
class stock will be worth thousands o
dollars TO the state. As matter Of fac
in this as IN many other ways the man
ayers of the great Bismarck fair are pub
of direeasactors.

RESUBMISSION.

A good deal of noise is being made
about resubUission. The friends Of
whisky have thrown out the challenge
and the prohIbitIonists accept it. The
battle Is 70 be fought in the election OF
members of the senate and house Of
representatives.. Il takes the vote of
tWothirds Of the members 70 submit she
matter to the people. We predict that not
One-third of the next legislature will be
In favor of resubmission, and that after
the election Is over it will hardly be
heard of again. If there was any chance
for it now the fool WhiskYibes-the saloon
keepeTs-WOuld destroy it before the
election. The noise made by
the submissIOnIsts and that eIngu-
lar decision of the sup
pieme court which virtually snnuls the
constitutional amendment haa set the sa-
looms to going. Whisky seems to be
having free run and where there has
been sobEieiy and quiet there Is now
drunkenness and broiling. In major

might have been some chance for resub-
mission had 1t not shown ITSELF in time
for the people TO hit il Ia fresh place IN
the election of Legislators this
fell. The people of Kansas are
against whisky. and the saloon
keepers will have themselves TO thank
for the sorry figure resubmIssion
will cut in the next legislature. We
have observed this matter with some
care, and every time whisky shows its
mug it gets black eye. 1t may beat
the people on tricks, and gain an Oeca-
siOnal temporary victory, hut where
there is any genuine attempt To enforce
the law It invariably retreats and hIdes
its head from the public. So it will at

The attention of the fool-kilIer Is
called to q little matter needing his

Mr.. Morris Sargent. Of New Bedford,

Miss Anna Mcintyre, aged 81, living at

The Investigation of the affairs OF the
Wall Street bank show that less than 8

The committee is still At work, however,

ink stand or two.
In his speech at Meriden, Connect
cut, Ben Butler said: "I am proud Of

The only industry Butler has been en-.
gagged In is the use of his chin. That is
not new industry. Sam Wood has
been at it in Kansas for thirty years.
Globe Democrat: One widow is gen

Democratic party this year finds one of

the Widow Butler on the lett. Between
the two it is having hard time Of 1t.
Mr. Cleveland read in some school
book that the president Is the executive
officer, and he put It iD his letter OF ac-
ceptance. The Democratic papers are
so struck with the profundity of the
thought that they are beside themselves
with joy. "Hear him talk" they say.

which prevails among the Democrats
We quote the following rather remark

The executive committee was In.

hard TO find in Louisiana, yet there is 9

BOW IT Is GGEE-

The chances are ninety-nIne in one
hundred that not one in ten of the per :
sons attending the u ,mocratic side
show at Topeka, called as a "resubmis
sion convention" has ever read the con-
stItutiOnal provision concerning amend
ments. Article XIV. of the constitution
of the state Of Kansas provides as fol-
lows:
section 1. Propositions for the
amendment of this constitution may be
made by either branch of the legislature
and if Iwo-thiTds OF all the members
elected 70 each house shall concur there
In, such proposed amendments, together
with the yeas and nays, shall be enter
ed on the journal. and the secretary OF
state shall cause the same to be publish
ed In at least one newspaper In each
county of the state where q newspaper
10 published, for three months preceding
the next election for Representatives, al
which time the same shall be submitted
TO the electors for their approval or re-
lection; and If majority of the electors
VetIDg on said amendments at said cleo
ton shall adopt the amendments, the
same shall become part of the cOnstitu-
tion. When more than one amendment
shall be submitted at the same
time, they shall be SO submitted
as to enable the electors Ia
vote on each amendment separately
and not more than three propositions to
amend shall be submitted at the same
election"
1t will be seen, by a reading of this
provision, that no state officer has any
power or authority whatever in submit
ting constitutional amendments to vote
Of the people. The legislature alone de.
cides such questions. If two.
thirds OF both branches of the
legislature vote to submit q
constitutional amendment to vote OF
the people, the secretary of state is re
quIred to give notice, by publication, o.
the proposed amendment. the people
vote upon it. and that ends the matter

his speech: "If you want to know where
