THE ROYAL VISIT TO IRELAND.

Yesterday morning the Prince and
Princess of Wales, and Prince Albert
Victor, left Convamore House, where they
are the guests of Lord Listowel, and paid
q visit to the Marquis of Waterford at
Gu raghmore, co. Waterford. Their route
lay along the Valley of Blackwater,
and at the towns on the route the
reception given to the Royal party was OF
the most cordial character. Where the en-
thusiasm was not marked, the people
nevertheless showed IA respectful demeanour.
In a few isolated instances there were visi-
bic evidences of antipathy to the irish Elk
e%cutiye, bnt nowhere was any HOSTILITY
evinced towards the Prince, and as a whole
his reception was considered very satlsfac.
tory. The railway stations at Fermoy,
Li.more, Cappoquin, Dungarvan, ana
Kilmacth0mas were gaIly decorated. AL.
dresses were presented at Fermoy anu
Lismore, the latter being from nearly three
hundred labourers and artisans of various
places in the locality, and bouquets were
handed to the Princess at every station by
children or ladies'. At Kilmeaden, from
which place they drove to Curraghmore
through Portlaw, several thousands OF per-
sons filled the roads and gave the Prince
and Princess a hearty welcome. After
lunching at Lord WaterfOrds mansion, the
Royal party returned by the same route to
Convamore. To-day they will visit Cork.
Thousands of persons paraded the streets
of Cork last night, viewing the decorations
in honour of the Royal visitors. The
South. mall and Patrick. Street are fes.
TONED with flags, and from many windows
banners are waving. Policemen are sta.
toned at various points along the streets,
so as to prevent anything like an assault
on private houses. A mob. numbering over
1000 roughs, assembled and marched
through the principle thoronghfares, sing
ing .sGod save Ireland" and smashing the
windows of houses which displayed bunt-
ing. The occupier of one of these houses,
whose d~rawing.room windows were smash
ed, presented a gun, which caused the
crowd to fly with great precipitation.

Judge Garland Dead.

Judge JAMES GARLAND, probably
the oldest Judge in the world, and, it is
believed the oldest member of the Ma
sonic fraternity in the United States,
died at his home in Lynchbmg, Va,
on the night of August 9th, in the 95th
year of his age. He was prosecuting
attorney of Lynchburg for nearly twen-
ty years and judge of the probate court
for fifteen years, and has been altogeth-
er at the bar and on the bench seventy
three years, having only retired in 1888,
when in his 9Sd year, and after he had
become totally blind. In all of his Off
cial life he never had but two of his de-
cisions reversed.
Judge GARLAND became a mason in
1912. He voted for JAMES MADISON
for President and for every nominee of
the democratic party since, having gone
to the polls in a carriage last November
and cast his ballot for CLEVELAND and
HENDRICKS.

The long contest is over and it is
neither LOWE or ALLEN but Col. VIM.
C. JONES who has been the lucky one
to receive the appointment of United
States Marshal for the district of Kansas.
He is an educated gentleman, was Col
onel of the 18th Kansas cavalry, and
was warden of the Kansas Penitentiary
under Gov. CLICK. This appointment
is giving good satisfaction, for the
reason that Col. JONES was selected
for the marshalship because he was not
supported by any Of the leaders in the
great fractional war which had been 60
ing in this state for the Office.

Gov. Hoadly May Run Again.
HE THINKS FORAKER WILL BE DEFEAT
ED IN ANY EVENT.

Gov. HoADLY, while at Toledo on
the 9Th, m conversing on election pros
poets, said: Il think Judge FORAKER
will be beaten. As for myself have
always said 1 would never enter into
the contest for the nomination, and
have told other candidates so. As to
accepting the nomination if it were ten
dered in way which satisfied me that
it was the universal wish of the demo-
ocratic party that 1 should be their can
didate then 1 would consider the matter.
l should then feel hardly at liberty to
decline, but we have not reached that
issue yet, and will not meet it until if
is presented to me-"

1.-THE supreme executive power OF the state
shall be vested in a Governor, who shall see that
the laws are faithfully executed" Art. /, Con-
stitution OF Kansas.
With JOHN WALRUFF'S brewery run
ming Oh full time at Lawrence, open sa-
looms in same city, and at Atchison,
the home of the Governor, Concordia,
Wichita, EmpOria and other towns too
numerous to mention, looks as though
JOHN A. MARTIN was acquiescing with
the whisky men in doing all they can to
show to the people of the state that the
prohibitory law is farce and failure.
How prohibitionists can claim that they
have gained any Roadway for prohibit
ton through the republican party or
are to gain anything through it, is more
than the sound thinking men of to-day
can comprehend. Gentlemen, the re-
publican party is a hypocrite of the
worst type, and it is now doing every
thing that can be done to trample under
foot the principles which you would
have maintained. Can you point your
finger to single instance where JOHN
a. MARTIN ever attempted to have the
prohibitOry law enforced, which is be-
ing violated every day at his own door?
Again, does this not prove that he took
the oath of office with ''lie upon his
lips?" How can you respect such
man and adhere to such a party?

Malone has opened the republican
campaign in Virginia with a PROPOSE
ton to pension rebel soldiers as one of
the planks of his platform. Blaine has
sent him words of encouragement and
the whole republican party will rejoice
if he comes out victorious, and mourn
if he should be defeated. If he sue
ceeds the next Republican National
Convention will attempt to bride the
South by inserting a similar plank in
its platform. If the republican leaders
can find no other way to save them
selves from defeat, they will bargain to
pay the Confederate debt and pension
Confederate soldiers.-CarliSle Pa. Vol

Another Soldier of 1912 Gone.

Josiah Cook, brave and true soldier
of 1912, died at the poor house last Fri
day night. He was buried in the pot
tiers field at the cemetery Saturday af-
teInOOn. Perhaps the pearly gates
opened as wide for him and the JOY
among the angels were as great as if he
lad n :. king and received kings
burial. Yet he went to his grave I'M
honored, unwept and. unsung. This
man whose services had been recognize
ed as honorable and faithful, whose
body was furrowed with leaden scars,
whose deeds, though not carved in brass
or marble, had won for him the title of
"a good and obedient soldier" and
whose conduct had caused him long
years ago to be placed upon the govern
ment roll as pensioner, is forced by
his inhuman children into the county
poor house and there left to die with
no relation or acquaintance to wipe the
death damp from his brow.
Since the above was put in type Post
No. SO, e.. A. R., took the matter in
hand and late last Tuesday afternoon
the remains of the old soldier were
taken up and re-interred in the soldiers
burying ground, thus giving honor and
respect due to a brave soldier of 1872.
At the grave detachment fired a sa-
lutte over the remains, and Rev. Mr..
Welsher, of the Baptist church, made a
most touching and eloquent address.
The deceased was 9S years of age.
Since the resolutions which will be
found in another column, passed the
meeting of Post No. So, last Tuesday
and were published in the daily Gazette,
explanations have been made and the
members of the Post disclaim the idea
of wantonly attacking the official char
acter of any one Of the County Commits
miSSioners; and we are informed by a
prominet member that meeting of the
Post will be called as soon as practical
BILE when the seemingly insinuations
in two of the resolutions against one
of the County Commissions will be re-
considered and reparatiOn made. The
REFLECTOR sincerely hopes that this
justice to the wounded feelings of one
of our justly popular County Commits
SiOnerS will not long be DELAYED.

it is somewhat of a coincidence that
both GRANT and LEE died at 63 years
of age, and that the fatal disease in
both cases began with the throat. Gen.
LEE was attacked with an affection of
the throat during the Gettysburg cam
paign, which later assumed the form
of rheumatism of the heart, of which
disease he died. Both were for months
in advance aware of their approaching
death. All know the heroic patience
with which Gen. GRANT awaited the
end; and those who were nearest LEE
during his last sickness testify that he
had no wish to recover.

The right of possession" is what
republican office-hOlders rely on. They
and those under whom they claim have
been in possession over twenty-one
years. Yes, but it has not been undis-
puted possession. Suit has been entered
against them regularly every four years.
Judgment was obtained against them
in 1876, but they induced a corrupt
court to set it aside. Judgment was
entered against them again in 1884 and
execution ordered Oh the 4th of March
last, and now writs of ejectment are
being served by Sheriff Cleveland and
his deputies.-EG.

Preamble and Resolutions,
HEADQ'RS ABILENE POST No. 63 G. A. X.
DEPARTMENT OF KANSAS,


DEPARTMENT OF KANSAS,
ABILENE, August 10, 1895.
Al regular meeting OF Abilene Post No.
63, q. A: H., Monday evening, the following
resolutions was unanimously adopted.
Whereas, In the All Wise provisions of a
Divine Creator Providence has seen fit to
call to his final account worthy veteran of
the war of 1872 Josiah Cook and;
Whereas, 1t was his lot in his last hours
here on earth to be left without the hand of
a relative, friend or acquaintance to minister
to his wants or kindly wipe the death damp
from his fading brow, and;
Whereas, We are just informed of the
humlliating fact that one Lyman Cook who
purportS to be son of this veteran entered
into an agreement with his father to accept
him in charge the remainder OF his natural
life, and induced the father to convey his
property to him, and;
Whereas, This ungrateful wretch of 4 son
permitted his father to become an inmate of
the poor house of Dickinson county lust one
month previous to his death. Now, there
fore be it,
Resolved, That we mourn with the patrt-
OTIS of our land the departure to a world I'M
known OF any who are of that hOnored band
who now number less than one to every eight
millions of our present population.
Resolved, That we, as Post of the G. A. r.
do most sincerely regret that we were not
informed as to the identity OF this man until
subsequent to his burial in the Potter's field
Resolved, That it is the unanimous voice
OF this Post i'll order To amend IL wrong and
atone so far as in our power now for this
gross lnJuSIlce 10 an OLD cOmrTide in arms
that detail he made by the Post comman,
der to disinter the remains and reburv them
in the ground belonging to thig Post, and
that proper honOrs be paid to his memory:
and suitable monument erected to mark
the last resting place of this time honored
veteran of the war of 1872
Resolved. That we have portrayed in this
death one OF the most striking lessons of
MANS inhumanity to man." That the rela
tives of our endeared citizen are deserving
OF eternal censure and Punishment from the
land their own father fought to save more
than seventy years ago.
Resolved, That we deprecate the conduct
and reprehensible action of those in au-
thority, in ordering the remains Of this vet
eran buried in the Potter's field. and then 20
upon our streets and speak of our doing
honors to Grant and permit a soldier of the
war of 1912 to be buried in the Potter's field !"
when we were wholly ignorant of the pres
ence in our midst of one of these time hon
ored and battle SCARED veterans
Resolved, That copy of these resolutions
be spread upon the records of this Post.
Resolved, That we hereby exonerate
County Commissioners BlevinS and Kandt
from all blame in ordering the burial of the
remains of Josiah Cook in the Potters field.

The New Railroad.

The Wichita Eagle says: The execu-
tive committee of the board of direc-
tors of the Omaha, Abilene & Wichita
railway, having provided the money
necessary to cover the preliminary ex-
penses, have employed an engineer and
an experienced corps and ordered an I'M
mediate survey of the line between
Abilene and Wichita. The orders for
the corps to run all the preliminary
lines necessary to the determining of
the best. most direct and practical
route for heavy and fast trains have
been issued. No reasonable expense
will be spared in determining the best
and most feasible route. In the mean
time. petitions are out for an election
for subscription to stock. AS soon as
the engineer had made his profiles of
the line between here and Abilene, he
will, we understand, go on with the
work as far north as Washington, or
the state line so that the work will be
i'll shape to contract as whole, or in
parts, as the directors may deem the
wiSest.
The Marion Record says: A meeting
of the directors of the Omaha, Abilene
s. Wichita Railroad company was held
in Marion Wednesday. There were
present: DR.. C. G. Fairly, Geo. A.
Alackwilder, J. V. Mofitt, n. F. Neider-
lander and w. w. Levey, of Wichita;
J. f. BOnebrake, of Abilene; Dell w.
Valentine, of Clay Center, and Hons.
S. T. Howe, r. NJ. Crane and F. II.
Kollock, of this county. These gentle
men are all sanguine of the success of
the great enterprise. The afternoon
and part of the night were consumed in
considering the interests of the project,
and then the meeting adjourned, to re-
convene in Wichita, Tuesday Aug. 18th,
the president of an eastern construction
company will be present to negotiate
with the board for the building of the
road. Verify, this project boometh.
The only question as to its success
seems to be the matter of necessary aid
along the route, and there is little
doubt on this point The people all
along the line have long felt the need of
this great trunk competing line, and
they intend to have it, if it does cost
something.

should be kept out of the Oklahoma

the cattlemen stay all over the Indian

In the republican platform we find,
"the laws must be enforced, if it de-

and yet, in the face of this, the republi-

The presidents proclamation against
fencing the public lands has the true
ring. He orders all unlawful Enclosures
at once removed, and the president in
sists that the public lands should be
held for actual settlers. This procla-

are glad that the people have presi-

1t is estimated that Mrs. GRANT will
have an income of $4,000 or $16, 900 a
year, independent of the income arising
from the trust fund of S25O,OOO. In
that sum of money the general possess

wife life interest or whether he has
