DAVID DALE DECLINES

II was rumored Yesterday ON the
streets that ID. NJ. Dale had Withdrawn
from the race for the Democratic nom-
nation for county attorney. The
handwriting on the wall is plain
enough for as sbrewd reader as our
county attorney and he don't care to
make race against reunited Re-
publican party. As for empty hon
ors they don't pay. There has been
considerable done TO make his candi-
dacy successful, even TO the extent of
manipulating the make up of the
state and senatorial ticket. IL David
drops the whole thing now in disgust
a very large factor Of the Democratic
organization will not only be missed
but some of the fellows will begin TO
think that the bottom has dropped out
OF the arrangement. The Democratic
party in Sedgwick county was big n
thing before the Dales came TO the sur
face. We congratulate Mr.. Dale on
his foresight

A LETTER..
The Irish for Blaine and Logan.


The following letter from Hon. J. N
Ma rtheney, of this city, who is travelling il
the interest Of the Ohio Relief association
was received by the secretary of the Contra
Irish Blaine and Logan club of Kansas, o
which Mr.. Martheny is member. He give
his observations, which are interesting, an,
go to show the political current:
WICHITA, Kan, Sept. 20.
David O'Shea, Topeka. Kan:
DEAR SIR: Your postal card of the l6tf
inst. followed me here. Am sorry canno
be with you on the 23rd, as am anxious to
aid in the elevation Of a man with brains to
the chief executiveship of these United
list. / am opposed to legislating in the in
terest of English merchants and manufac
tories. In fact have never entertained the
idea that an English monopolist was BY
nature or otherwise better than those Of
the United States, hence object to free
trade.
In travelling from town to town and care
fully feeling the pulsations of the people, !
find general and gradual improvement.
The disaffected Republicans are seeing that
their best interest is back within that fold,
while many Democrats see the suicidal
policy of the Democracy, is giving to the
English merchant and manufacturer solid
aid and comfort, while at the same time our
consumers, our merchants and our manu-
facturers are damned.
meet scores of Irish voters who have
heretofore voted the Democratic ticket, that
are outspoken and warmly support ng
Blaine and Logan.
One Irishmen. while speaking of the pri-
vate lives of Mr.. Blaine and Cleveland re-
marked that he thought infinitely more Of a
man who would marry the same woman
twice in order to be sure of making it legal,
than he did of a young bachelor of forty
who would promise to marry woman, get
her child, steal it from the bosom of its
mother and clandestinely place her in the
walls of an insane asylum in order to cover
his own crime, so he might go unpublished
BY the courts or evade the just condemna-
ion of the people.
Success to your efforts, for l do believe
he Blaine American policy is good for our
lown trod1cn relatives.
l am fraternally yours,
]. N. MARTHESY.

nounce it publicly in au Official man.
ner. One and an have ask q that the
matter be let drop "to avoid bad feel
ing In the party" and all have been
unable to deny the facI that during the
present campaign Union soldiers
known 10 be such will be considered
as in the Democratic party at the suf-
ferance of the old Rebel and Copper
head element, held in hiding during
the Hancock campaign, and must be
ready to submit TO insult at any and
all times for the part they took in pun
ishing the Rebel comrades ef Mr..
Cleveland's chief advocate.
Therefore it has come TO n question
here q Union soldier. who has been
sincere Democrat, should go in this
campaign.
Ii he act with the Cleveland Demo-
Gratis he must apologize for his war
record; see the Grand Army Of the
Republic insulted, to do honor 10
every Rebel officer that comes 10
Democratic meeting. and acquiescc in
the dictum of the official head of III"
Democracy In this town, that hence
forth "the Grand Army must take
back seat"
In such case / have but one decis-
ion to make:
The Grand Army represents the
salvation of the Union from ruin; the
Cleveland Democracy. as revealed BY
itself in an ungarded moment. repre-
sents the men who would have de-
stroyed their country but for the very
Grand Army which that Cleveland
party now insults and derides.
Ii is time, therefore, for every union
man in America to declare his creeds
as l do mine-that:
"The humblest drummer bow who
followed the flag of the union during
the siaveholders' rebellion is to-day
more worthy of honor in the land he
helped to save than the greatest ora
tor and soldier that helped 10 DESTROY
the country of his birth to pcrpciuate
human slavery"
From henceforth till this rebel spirit
is crushed out forever, and till the
Copperbeads Of 1864 take back seat
in the councils of the Democratic party,
for one shall act and vote with the
party which has need to apologize for
its war record, and which remains to-
day great. in spite of the faults, follics,
and crimes of the meu it has some
times honored with its gifts. Your
obedient servant,

Cattle Men Bounced.

The order of The department is just
as strong touching the cattle men aud
their occupancy of the Indian Terri
tory as it is toward the boomers, aud
SO far as we can see is Just as-rigidly
enforced in one case as in the other.
The order against. the cattle men in
the strip known as Greer county, ly-
ing along the southern line of the Ter
rItory was enforced rigidly and all the
cattle men were removed by United
States forces. One firm removed
owned fifty thousand head of cattle,
and they must either lease Of the
Indians or 90 back to Texas.

The CommIssIonership.

No office more directly interests the tax
payer than that of county commissioner, yet
it is the fashion, in many counties, to place
this office of trust-and it is peculiarly a
/ trusteeship-in the hands of second and
third rate men. Not only are the expendi-
lures Of the county in the hands Of the COM
missioners, but ali the accounts, books and
records of the most important Offices subject
TO their supervision. A commissioner for
| the county is TO be elected from the First
district. For that position majority of the
! delegates nominated Mr.. L. A. Wilson, Of
Lincoln township. Although he has been
long time reader Of this paper and we
knew him and Of him to some extent, yet
We knew little personally of his business ex-
perience and qualifications. A careful en-
quiry into these matters is rewarded with
the most gratifying results. He is not only
sound, very sound, politically, sound and
very sound as mel ghbor and citizen, but
be will come to the Office equipped with just
that experience which is so valuable in the
transaction Of the business of the county,
just those qualifications which caused the
business men Of this city to persuade A. w.
Oliver to accept place on that board. We
believe, but are not certain, that Mr.. Wilson
is an Ohioan. He was resident OF Illinois
however for years, and was the station agent
and express agent and postmaster at Tonica
for thirteen years, when he resigned
his position TO come to Sedg-
wick county, Kansas, to farm
SO that his business training has been of
that character which will make him at home
with all kinds of bills and accounts. He is
at present trustee of his township and the re-
turns he made of the property and assessed
values of that township show as an account
ant and systematic book-keeper he has few
equals in this or any other county. One
county officer remarked to us that L. G.
Wilson's returns were the most complete,
scrupulously neat and correct of any
township returns he had ever seen. Of
course the Republican party of the county
was lucky in securing such man for the
board of commissioners. Mr.. Wilson not
being politically ambitious and having no
political complications he win come into his
Office unembarressed and ready to act only
for the best interests of the tax payers with
out regard to party or favoritism. so far as
we can hear there has not been even a criti- |
cism of his nomination from the Democrats |
of his district. That he will be elected there |
seems NO doubt and that he will make q
splendid commissioner seems equally GER
tain.
