of course be borne in mind that the

THE STATE CONVENTION.

1t has been suggested that the
State Democratic Conventio n
should meet about the first Of July,
q few days before the meeting of
the National Convention in Chica-
90, for the purpose Of electing dele
gates to the National Convention,
and that it should at the same
meeting nominate q State ticket.
We approve the suggestion, because
we see no need Of two State Conven-
tions when one can do the work that
is required. There are always seri-
Gus objections to long political
canvass but there is no good reason
why the Democratic nomi e g
should actively enter the field as
soon as the nominations are made
Early nominations cannot'strength-
EN- the opposition, if there be oppo-
sition, for it is safe to presume that
the records Of the Democratic nomi-
nees will bear inspection, however
minute and prolonged. We say,
then, let the convention that meets
to elect delegates, also nominate
the State ticket; but let the canvass
open at the proper time.

Mr.. S. J. Tilden said, in a recent
interview, that he would accept the
Presidency his countrymen should
ask him to do so. It will not soon
be forgotten that the old man of Ora
mercy was asked to take the Presi-
dency in 1876, but that he did not
do so. 1t must be admitted how
ever, that Samuel J. Tilden is a
man whose influence is not to be
despised by either of the great
political parties. Apart from the
eloquent clink af his dollars, he is
not an ordinary man.

What we chiefly regret about
the Cash affair is that the officers
of the law in Chesterfield County
could not be relied upon to arrest
the outlaws. What we chiefy like
is the stand taken by Governor
Thompson and the State press, in
regard to the Cashes. The press
is unsparing in its condemnation
this shows a healthy public senti-
ment outside Chesterfield. The
Governor was prompt and positive:
this teaches men to respect him.
and the law he executes. Another
thing we are pleased with is the
fact that neither Of the Cashes is q
Democrat. Now let the Northern
partisan press howl itself hoarse.
Both are independent greenbackers'

The attention of the public hav-
ing lately been directed to the sub
ject of electricity, we hope that
some electrician will enlighten us
on q certain point. We wish TO
know how lightning rods protect,
assuming that they do protect; and
why the rods are required to be
insulated. Why would it be dan
gerous, as we have always heard it
would be, to let the rods touch the
chimneys or houses from which
they are separated by glass insula-
tors? We should be glad to have
this matter explained intelligently.

The county candidates whose
cards have appeared, act on the
assumption that our nominations
will be made by primary election,
and we suppose that they are cor
rect. For our part, we much pre-
fer the plan of nominating by con.
vention. 1t seems to US that large
convention would as fairly repre-,
sent the choice of the people as the
primary election, while being much
less Objectionable in some respects.
We have too many campaigns, and
politics is a nuisance. Two prima'
~ elections, the general State cleo
ton, and the Presidential election
There is altogether too much Of the
thing-even where it is regarded
as a good thing. We are in favor
of a big convention, and we have
no axe to grind.

Communism and Nihilism are
the immediate out-growth of the

goods are unequally, and therefore,
unjustly, bestowed. Of course these

uneven. William H. Vanderbilt is

HOW THEY HAVE LIED.


The Oklahoma boomers have Industrious
ly and unblushingly asserted ever since
their attempt to settle Oklahoma that Sena-
tor Plumb had cattle interests down there,
and thatshe was therefore opposed to the set
tiers move, and responsible for the attitude
of the Interior Department toward Payne.
Senator Plumb made speech a few days
ago AT FL Dorado, when it was asked about
these matters. He made answer BY going
all over the entire question. As TO the charge
that he owned any cattle in the Territory
he said if all the cattle in the Indian Terri
tory were TO turn up dead he would not be
one cent poorer. After explaining the EN-
barrassments Of the Indian committee in
congress upon that question, and telling
just what efforts he had made in behalf of
the settler move, he wound up by saying;
81 believe that every acre from which the
Indian has been removed should be open to
settlement by the people, free from the con-
troll of corporations, railroads or monopo-
lies of any kind, and as fast as it can be
done with justice to the Indians the whole
Territory should be opened 10 the settlement
and control of the white man."

To the Editor of the Daily Eagle
Apropos Of the assertion made in Friday
Beacon, that the utterances of the clerical
bigct Burchard in presenting an address to
to Mr.. Blaine had the effect of alternating the
Catholic Republicans of this city from the
Republican party and to cause them TO pull
of their badges. | desire to state that the
Republicans referred to are still in line and
wearing their badges. / confess that the
! language OF the address at first staggered
me, but when | come to reflect that neither
Mr. Blaine nor any Of the managers of his
canvass were in anyway responsible for H.
i see no reason why any Catholic should de-
sert Mr.. Blaine or the Republican. party
simply because bigoted crank made uso
of insulting expressions in presenting an adj
dress. The spirit Of the address in question
does not harmonic with Mr.. Blaine's senti-
ment as expressed in a letter concerning his
family and religion. written March the 10Th.
is.6:
my ancestors on my fathers side Were. as
you know. always identified with the Pres
byterian church, and they were prominent
and honored in the old colony of PennSyl-
vania. But l will never consent to make any
public declaration upon the subject. fer two
reasons: First, because | abhor the intro
duction of ANYTHING that looks like a relig-
ious test or qualification for office in n re-
public where perfect freedom of conscience
is the hirthright Of every citizen: and, sec
ond, because my mother was devoted

presidencies speak disrespeotful
word of my mothers religion. and no pres
sure viii draw me into any avowal of bostil-
ity or unfrienliness 10 Catholics, though
have never received. and do not expect, any
political support from them" If Catholics
feel agrieved at the language in question let
them turn TO the other side and what will
they find. Bragg's insulting utterancas ri

the most bisNtod anti-Catholic writers in the

STILL DEFIED
THE CITY ADMINISTRA-
TON REFUSE TO
MOVE.
Their Organ Insults Men who
Would Protect their Homes
and Families
BY Appe aling to Party Prejudice
and by Charging Occult
Motives.

The appeal of the citizens committee to
the mayor and council 10 clear the city OF
the dangerous and unlawful element which
is nightly robbing our people goes I'M
needed, and the sentiment which called the
, meeting of citizens forth is deiied. The fact
that the movement was solely in the interest
of good government and mutual safety,
added TO the fact that still again night be-
fore last the r1bbcrics went on as usual, and
all reinforced by the plain and undeniable
morning, it was hoped that some
thing would be done yesterday.
But there was not. The mayor IN the morn
ing concluded that it was not safe to longer
ignore the demand for action, and went so
far as to say and to notify the EAGLE that a
proclamation would be ready for publication
last evening. No proclamation came, nor
was any issued. Why, the citizens of Wich-
ita need not be told. The men who have
been manipulating the affairs of this city for
years, simply would not permit it. They
cannot afford to have that class driven from
the town. The official paper of the city and
the organ of the Democratic party, still far
ther insults the people by saying that this
desire to protect life and property. is
only partisan move. Was ever such an in
suit flung into the faces of people? If
partisan move will free this town of the
thugs and robbers that infcst it by the score
and the hundred, then in the name of fright
cned women and children let the partisan
move 20 forward. We tell this city admin
stration and its organ that if there Is any
partisanship in the whole business it is upon
the other side; that i; is in the interest of the
party TO which the Beacon and the city ad-

To the Editor Of the Ddiig Eagle:
The best of the wine was reserved for the
end of the feast We have had some good
meetings at Derby this fall, but it was re-
served for Judge Peters 10 arouse the most
enthusiasm. am ike the lady who had
used many superlatives in describing beau
tiful objects; when she looked at the sub
Unity of the Niagara Falls, she said
"What shall say? I've used all my adjec-
tivcs.
The judge was escorted to the place OF
speaking by the Mulvane Post bsnd, and a
number Of our most prominent citizens. He
was introduced by DIR. Tucker
and gave US a mastery speech
on the issues between the parties
He was eloquent, fair, logical and witty
made many happy hits and no enemies. He
talked as if he were one of us, and not SUI.
perior sort of being whom it was our duty
to worship. Time and again he was inter.
rupted by yociferous applause. Whatever
man be thought of his politics, there were
none that did not recognize his earnestness
and believe that Judge Peters would not DC
all in his powar for his constituency.
| think there is no doubt but that Rockford
will roll up an old teme majority.
The faithful Mulvane Post band played
some fine martial music and many an ole
soldiers heart beat faster as he heard again
the music TO which he had gone forth tc
fight and to conquer. Our thanks to thu
band.
Much Of the success OF the meeting wa
due to the exertions of those stalwart young
Republicans, Samuel Waugh, james McCo.
and John Bingder.
