CoNKL1NG.-It is a question still
whether ex-senator Conkling will take
any part in the political campaign.
Some of his New York friends think be
will. All agree that if he ever intends to
enter politics again, he now has his oppor-
tunity. 1t is significant fact that Alfred
Conkling, the ex-Senator's nephew, is an
ardent Blaine man. He has been in
Bar Harbor for several days of rest and
recreation. During hisIstay there he re-
peatedly called upon Mr.. Blaine and
assured him that he should speak for
him in the state of New York. Alfred
Conkling is fine German scholar. He
intends to. make several German speeches
during the canvass.

GOVERNOR HENDRICKS

Opposed to Changing National Ticket.
DUBUQUE, Iowa, Aug. 2S.-The Herald
publishes the following letter from Gov.
Hendricks, received by citizen of this
city in answer to an inquiry concerning
the rumors affecting a change in the
National Democratic ticket, consequent
upon the ISLANDERS published against Gov.
Cieveland:
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Aug. I'll have
your letter of the 10th inst. | can not
consider with favor your suggestion of a
change in the National ticket The
action Of the convention can not now be
reconsidered. 1t must stand and [ think
it ought to stand. [ do not agree with
you in respect to the probable result |
think the probabilities are favorable to
the success of our ticket. The Cleveland
scandal will not haye weight with the
people, and ought not to have weight 1t
is unworthy the National contest. Three
times Governor Cleveland has stood the
test of a popular canvass. Once for the
office of mayor in his own city, and each
time he received the Endorsement of his
neighbors by vote largely above his
party strength. Whatever there may have
been of the scandal existing before that
is not just either to him or the people
now to revive it. The public welfare
requires that he be judged by his public
record, by his. capabilty and fitness for
the discharge Of responsible and import
ant political duties, and not by old and
exploded private SANDER
Very respectfully yours, etc,

The Newburyport Herald says: "The
public schools do not fit boys for indus,
try in the occupations where manual
skill is required, and the full course OF a
high school tends rather to unfit them
for such pursuits" The Herald also
says that the idle aristocracy and the
pauper who has no skill in any art, are
the chief burdens of society.

Without loss of man or agun, another
great national question has been settled.
President Arthur settled it on New
Years day, by taking in Mrs. Speaker
Carlisle on his arm," and placing her on
the right of the line among the ladies
receiving at the White House. It ap-
pears that this official ceremony confirms
her right to be styled "the first lady of
the land" inasmuch as there is no Mrs.
Vice President and the executive is him
self widower. 1t was cruel blow,
however, to the wife of the secretary of

Spectators last week put corn up z
cents bushel. Wages were reduced 10
per cent in many workshops. Necessity
requires that workmen shall receive less
for their labor, while gamblers require
that more shall be paid for goods. The
law regards spectators in margins as not
legitimate, and will not enforce such con-
tracts. Why is the law so tender of these
useless gamblers that it does not advance
one step and make margin speculation
an offence subject to as degrading pun
ishment as other classes of gambling,
and card gamblers pay penalties of fines
and imprisonment, yet their vocation ID
as respectable and less injurious to the
public than the Wholesale gambling In
food, stocks, petroleum, cotton. ETC.,
which prevails throughout the country.

Breakers Ahead.

A republican resubmissiOn state con-
vention has been called to meet at To
peka on the Goth of August flor the
purpose of consultation, and to place a
state ticket in the field if deemed ad-
visable." The call is signed by GEO.
W. VEALE, GEO. w. MARTIN and JO-
Ell HUNTOoN.
This is an added complication to an
already greatly mixed campaign, and it
promises to be very serious one.
A fine field is here given to the NOR
alist. 1t is well known that the repub-
lican party embraces prohibition as its
most important tenet. 1t even says to
the prohibitionists: do not leave the
party; you can only hope to successful
ly advance your principle through our
organization. And the prohibition
lists remained. But the anti-prohibition
republicans are now leaving the party,
and the moral question is this: "Will
the republican party hold fast to the
prohibitionists, or will it desert them
In an effort to hold it's second and larg-
er wing?' This is a hard question,
very perplexing to the republican man
ayers as well as interesting to the NOR
alist. The grand old party" may yet
have sufficiently strong moral vertebr9
to renounce its two;faced attitude and
declare itself the prohibitian party,
pure and simple.
Of more particular and immediate
interest, perhaps, than the working out
of an abstruse moral problem, is the
political effect of this detection of anti
prohibitionists from the republican par
ty. That is tOlerably certain.
In all human probability Gov. CLICK
will be his own successor.

Mr.. Blaine and Irish-Americans.

From the Boston Pilot, probably the
ablest edited Irish journal in this coun-
try, we clip the following, which is
called to the respectful attention of
those republicans who are claiming the
Irish-American vote for Mr.. BLAINE:
Heres richness from the New
York Tribune, which paper has spent
good deal of its money and employed
the time of its Smalleys for years past
in attempting to defame everything IT.
ish. The Tribune says
Snow great bodies OF workingmen and hosts OF
Irish voters declare for Mr.. Blaine There are
special causes now, OF course just as the fall OF
sOue peddle starts the avalanche that was ready
TO break loose; Mr. Clevelands nomination Is Oh
defence OF naturaliZed Americans wren lmprlS-
Oned in England and his sturdy American policy
in foreign affairs have especially pleased the
Irish voters"
This is amusingly impudent. Ha. ha!
Mr.. Blaine's ''manly defense" consisted
in allowing American citizens OF Irish
birth to be arrested, imprisoned, i'll
treated, insulted and misrepresented by
English policemen, while he looked on
approvingly and instructed Minister
Lowell to approve the English outrages
as legal.
Minister Lowell, when appealed to
by the unfortunate prisoners, answered
that he could not interfere in their be-
half. ''Unless / am instructed to the
contrary by the Department OF State,
he wrote. 81 must take this view OF my
duties.'
At this time Mr.. Blaine was Secre-
tary of State. Lowell was following
his instructions to the letter.
On the End of June, 1881, Danlel
McSweeney, a citizen of San Francisco,
while on a visit to Ireland with his
family, was arrested and imprisoned,
and no charge made against him. lie
demanded a hearing, trial, protection:
No one answered. Mr.. Lowell read OF
the arrest, but never moved finger.
The imprisoned mans wife wrote to
Secretary Blaine: but he did not even
give her the courtesy Of an answer.
Mr.. insolvency wrote from an English
jail to his daughter
seYour mother wrote to Mr.. Blaine about my
case, but that gentlemen did not deign even re-
ply Ihave heard nothing whatever from him. J"
Not only was this utter ignoring of
the rights of citizens the policy of Mr..
Blaine, but when Lowell voiced the
patent falsehoods of the English police,
denying Mr.. McSweeney's citizenship,
his conduct was approved. Secretary
Blaine said to a brother of one of the
imprisoned men: Mr.. Lowell has
pursued his instructions with energy
and sagacity, and in full harmony with
his Government"
If Irish-Americans are going to vote
for Blaine, we propose to have them do
it with their eyes open. 1t may be that
many will do so through the anti-lrlsh
expressions of such papers as the Bos-
ton Herald, which stupidity and inSolent-
ly advocates the exchange OF the hun
dreds of the anti-Cleveland democrats.
But it is the duty of the Pilot to tell
the truth about both candidates, and
let Irish-American citizens vote as they
please.

Patrick Collins Speech.

On our first page we publish portions
of a speech which was delivered by
PATRICK COLLINS, an Irsh-American
LAWYER of Boston of distinguished abil-
ity, before the County Democracy of
New York last week. Mr.. COLLINS
reviews Mr.. CLEvELAND's official acts
and puts them intelligently before the
people. We trust that our readers will
read the speech and make themselves
familiar with the facts of the false
charges which are brought against Mr..
CLEVELAND. When once known Mr..
CLEvELAND's acts will need no de-
Tense.
He stands now, as he will stand at
the close of the campaign, the strong,
able and upright champion of democrat
ic principles and honest government.
Attacked in an infamous and cowardly
manner, we yet wish to urge upon the
people the eminent fitness and qualifi-
cations of GROVER CLEVELAND for
the high trust which his party will con-
fide to his keeping.

Chapman Chips.

The Cleveland and Hendricks club,
and the Blaine and Logan club, both of
Chapman, met Saturday evening last,
on the elegant Boland lawn. BY agree-
ment the clubs had their speaking from
the same stand, alternating. The dem
ocratic speakers were, Messrs. Hen
bricks, Pierce, Lifts, ST., Gore, Ketner
and Warnock, and the republicans had
Burton and Carpenter. There were
two or three men and boys who so far
forgot themselves as to use improper
and, in one case, indecent language,
while speakers were on the stand. The
democrats deeply regret this occur
renee.
The meeting was largely attended,
there being over four hundred people
present. The democratic club thanks
the large number of gentlemen who
came from Abilene and Junction City
among whom were Banker Kirby, Edi-
tor Strother, of the REFLECTOR, and
many others.
The Chapman Star Band has the sim
cere thanks of the democratic club for
the music rendered in their behalf. The
meeting was adjourned with a vote of
thanks to the speakers.
Should the democratic club again
publicly convene. all are invited to come
and participate in the exercises. The
next regular meeting Of the club will
be on Saturday evening, Aug. 9th, 1884,
at O'Clock. T. J. FOLEY,

The State Election.

The vote in this state for Governor
will in all probability decide whether
prohibition is to go or remain part of
our constitution.
JOHN y. MARTIN, the republican
nominee, stands upon prohibition
platform and has further declared that
he opposes re-SubmiSsiOn. He is as
much of a prohibitionist as ST.. JOHN
ever was, and all the objections which
were brought against Mr.. ST.. JOHN
can with equal truth be brought against
Mr.. MARTIN.
We are told by political republicans,
who also profess to be prohibitionists,
that prohibition will not enter into the
campaign. This statement is nothing
more than subterfuge used to mislead
the anti-prohibition vote. Granting
for the sake of argument that the ques-
ton will not enter into the canvass,
what have we then? Simply that the
obnoxious law will remain with its full
train of attendant evils.
Those persons who are in favor of re-
submission can enforce their disappro-
val of the prohibitcry law in no stronger
way than by voting for Gov. CLICK.
His reelection would tell the Legisla-
ture of the State in peremptory Ian
guage that the amendment was obnox-
ious and must be resubmitted; and it
would be resubmitted..
The issue has been made by the en-
phatic declaration of the republican
nominee that he would oppose result
mission. 1t is MARTIN and Prohibi-
tion," or '.GLICK and ResubmissiOn."

Like an armed warrior, plumed
knight, y is a simile which Mr. ROBERT
INGERsoLL perpetrated upon a patient
people when he nominated Mr.. BLAINE
for the Presidency in 1876. A number
of well-meaning enthusiasts in Abilene
have been taken with the idea and are
organizing mounted club, in which
the gilded t1appings and pomp of war,
the flowing plume and shining lance will
bear conspicuous part. When the pa
triotic members of the club are swell
tering in their ridiculous harness, let
them remember that the nearest MIR
BLAINE ever approached knighthood
was when he read Tennyson's liking
Arthur" or charged upon the southern
brigadiers after the war had been ended
ten years. The only enterprise in
which Mr.. BLAINE proved to be a
'dead-head'' was the great civil war
His substitute, for various and weighty
reasons, failed to represent his chief at
the front. Mr.. BLAINE cannot be even
called a knight by proxy.
