Or. ALIENS CANDIDACY.

The gentleman, whose name will be
presented TO the Republican state con-
yention, at Topeka, next Wednesday,
for the nomination for Secretary OF
State. DIR. +. Il. Allen. is not an Off ce
seeker i'm the ordinary acceptation of
that term. His candidacy, if it may
properly be so designated, did not
come of his own motion or suggestion;
but it came of recognition, upon the
part of his many friends living in this
section of the state, of his eminent
fitness for the discharge of
the duties of that honorable
position. True, the claim of location
may have been urged by some in in
ducing him TO consent to the use of
his name, but the moving conviction
was his abilities and the strength
which his name would give the Re
publican ticket. Aud, while it is true
DIR. Allen never held au Office of
great pay or emolument, he has never
theless filed several places of great
responsibility and of great Importance
to the people, and SO faithful, so con-
scientious and SO successful has he
been, and proved, under every trial
that there remains but the one verdict
Of swell done thou good and faithful
servant" He is safe man under
every and all circumstances. As the
honored representative of this people
for several terms in the legislature we
have vet 10 hear the first adverse crit
icism of his speeches, positions or
votes. And DIR. Allen is not pro-
fessional Office seeker or politician.
He in no sense is dependent upon an
office. So far as money is concerned.
his practice as physician is more re-
munerative than would be the Off ce
for which his friends are urging
him.
DIR. Allen has been resident of the
statt ioi iWtHtl Ntdi -, hHo"o iici HE
tory, been with her in her dark as well
as i'm her brighter days, and no man
could better understand her needs or
be more fully alive to the claims and
the spirit of her people and institu-
tions. His selection to the honorable
position of secretary of state would
not only CRAFTY the people ola popu-
lous and influential section of the state,
but add to the strength of the
Republican ticket however admirably
its make up in the other portions, and,
the. delegates from all parts of this
grand commonwealth, are earnestly
most earnestly, solicited TO inquire in
to the truth of the matters above set
forth. and, unmindful of the feeble
ness of our words of praise, give this
candidate from the great Arkansas
valley, united, hearty and trium-
plant support.

People who are not as bad MS
Painted
BLACK Wallace as the Asses
sor Of Eureka county is generally
known, has been renominated, and
several Democratic papers think
that 30 notorious a lobbyist ought
not to be in Office. Mr.. Wallace
has been in Office some years, and
We have yet to hear of anybody &C
cusing him Of crookedness in ac-
counts. He has made a faithful
competent officer, and a renomina-
ton was the proper reward for his
honesty aud fair dealing. That he
is lobbyist no one denies and as
most of his bills 20 through, it
must also be acknowledged that he
understands his business. The
word lobbyist has become a term OF
reproach with people who do not
understand the nature of the work
to be performed. Lobbying has
become regular business, like any
thing else and man may enter the
business and still be . sQuare-deal-
ing honest man. It il almost i'm
possible to put bill through \ Leg
islature without having some one
to look after its interest. For In
stance, bill is introduced and re-
ferred to a Committee if the
members of a certain Committee
are inimical to the author Of the
bill, care will DO taken that it is re-
ferred to some other Committee
where it will have more impartial
hearing. After it is reported back
to the House or Senate the lobbyist
sees that good speakers are on hand
to present the merits Of the bill As
strongly as possible. As these
speakers cannot tell when tho bill
may be called up they depend upon
the lobbyist to keep them posted
and see that they are in their
places, otherwise they might be in
a Committee room attending to
other business. The lobbyist also
sees that all Of the friends Of the
bill are present when the roll is
called, and if they are not present,
secures a postponement Of action
He follows it through all, guiding it
to tho best of his ability past all
dangers until it finally secures the
necessary vote and receives the Ex-
ecutive signature. During this
time he is urging individual MEM
bers to vote for the measure, giving
his reasons for the passage Of the
bill and all this time he has not
done a dishonorable act or brought
the slightest undue pressure. Men
in Washington are hired to make
arguments before Committees IA
yoring certain bills, they are hired
because of their eloquence and reas-
oning powers, but they need not be
necessarily bribers and corruption
lists. The public has an i'll defined
idea that lobbyist is sack bearer
bribing the servants Of the people
to pass thieving and dishonest
measures, and have begun to re-
gard them as class Of men s0?ae-
thing akin to the :Scriptural leper
whose only function is corruption
and pollution. 1t mar surprise
some Of these people to know that
some of the best laws in orr statute
| book required the assistance Of
lobbyists to get them there.
