given the people oiihe State an excellent
administration. His honesty and ability
are unquestioned. His brilliant campaign

The COlCred Vote.

Richard T. Greener representative
colored man and professor in Howard
University, who siumped Ohio last fall
in behalf OF the Republican State ticket
and Blaine and Logan, has written the
following letter: :

Want to Keep Their Arms.

WICHITA. KAN, July San Eagle
special from Fort Reno says the situa
,ion there is unchanged and that many
pf the head men say they are willing to
await action on the report OF the CON-
missioner sent from Washington. About
six or seven hundred Young bucks say,
however, that they will fight if their
arms are demanded. The young Chey-
rnnes have been canvsssing among The
Apsches and Commanches for assistance.
They admit that the accidental killing oi
the young brave 10 the late sham battle
was bad medicine. The medicine men
are working like beavers to keep up the
war spirit. Unless the number of troops
he doubled they will try their luck al
more medicine making within a few
days.

The Keilar Case.

The political and social circles and tri-
angles OF Caldwell have been greatly ag
itated during the past nine days over the
case OF one OWEN KELLAR OF that place
1t seems that KELLAR had passed an
examination before the Civil Service
Board ut Cleveland some two months
sgo, and was placed on the eligible lisl
hy the Commission. About ten days
ago be received notice from the sppoint-
ruent division in the Treasury Depart
ment that be had been appointed to
81 200 clerkstip, and to report for duty
at once. He Immediately laid in sup
ply of store clothes and started for
Washington.
Now, it appears that this mar KELLAR
is Republican, and hal been especially
active during the campaign last fall. The
Democrats were determined that the ap-
pointing power should be advised OF the
manner OF man KELLAR wrs, and they
set TO work to get up some testimonials
as 10 his past record. These papers were
sent to Gen. WARNER, and knowing the
good standing of the men making the
charges, he forwarded them to the De
partment at W Washington with his indorse-
mont. So, when KELLAR appeared, he
was confronted with thescharges OF his
offensive partissnshlp, and he was told
bv the officer who had called him that be
was not wanted. .sga
This brought in the Civil Service Com.
mission,. who insisted that KELLAR
should be appointed for the trial term of
six months, at least, and Secretary MAN.
YlrG, In order 10 avoid a d flculty With
the Commission, gave him the appoint
ment, and KELLAR is now working at
desk Ia the Treasury Department.
In the meantime the Republican or.
gans and street corner blowers Of Cald-
we'll, are shouting themselves hoarse in
abuse and viliacstion OF Gen. WARNER
and the officers at Washington.
We have no personal knowledge of
this man KELLAR, but II It is true as
is charged. fand we have every reason to
believe that it is) that KeLLAR spent all
his time last fall working for the Repub-
lican party-shat be was guilty on seve-
ral occasions OF ungentlemanly conduct
that he was loud aud abusive OF D.m-
ocrsts and Democratic candidates-that
he va, known as the Republican "bully"
and endesvored to intimidate Democrats
I'VE say II all this, or any part Of it be
true, fair presentation OF the facts to
the appointing power is right and prop
er, and lie should not be permitted to re.
main in place day under Democratic
administration.
Blu, what must be the character Of the
man who would apply for and accept a
place under an administration which be
had opposed bv every mears in his pow
or, fair and foulP The spirit OF euch
man must be the most grovelling and
imaginable, and bis brass and
impudence should debar him from the
association ofshonorable men. We I'm
agine that KELLAR will be despised by all
spirited Republicans.
