and the Republican party has that to do.
We must watch our own institutions and not
others.
VIII the Democratic party manage affairs
iE wsy as that will give labor chance:
Their efforts have so far failed. When we
had high tariff we had better times than
when a low one. Henry Clay said that what
ever arguments could be made for or against
protection tariff brought good times and a
free trade hard times. He said that as long
as these facts remained SO he was in favor of
a tariff
! believe the day is far distant when the
children Of poor people can not go to school
on account of poverty. II it ever does come
our institutions are in danger
! What shall we say of Kansass We are all
for Kansas and all for Sedgwick county
against the field. We are all enthusiastic
over the state and enthusiastic over our
party. The state ticket is a good one. be-
lieve Governor Martin to be sincere good
man. As said the Democrats are good on a
still hunt. They have instituted ''Moon-
light" march. 1t will be long march before
they get there.
They always lay back and l. to take the
advantage of US. They say to us we ought
not begrudge. If they had majority OF a
hundred in this county we would get a divide
once in century. There is no reason for us
to elect their ticket. Your duty and mine is
to stand square up to the nominees Echeersl
I am glad Valley Center has representative
On the ticket. You have nominated good
man. Who will say Arthur Carpenter is not
able TO represent your district welig
The above remark was responded to by a
member Of the assembly, who said they
would say so next November.
"Here is a representative young man," the
speaker continual, ''and it is your duty to
elect him"
The highest compliment ever paid our can
didate for probate judge was by his opponent
who said it would be his highest aim if elect
ed, to leave the Office in as good condition as
he found it. Well, may he say that. He has
performed all the duties of the Office in a
commendable manner. Everything is In
good shape. If both the candidates are good
citizens as they are, aud the Democrat does
not hope to do the work OF the office any bet
ter than the Republican, why should the Re
publicans vote for the Democrat.
The nominee for district clerk has always
proved himself a good citizen and an honor
able man, and should receive your support.
An honest man who is the Republican
nominee is good enough for me- They will
make an effort to get us to trade Off some Of
our candidates but want too say that the
Republicans have no trading stock on hand
C'rolonged cheer)
Mr.Jones, candidate for countyattorney was
given'a handsome majority al tho conven-
ton and now it is your plain, cold duty to
elect him.
The candidate for public instruction is
practical, educated man. He is well ac-
quainted with our school system and viii
make a good official.
Now l ask you not to forget that work
must be done before election day and it viii
not Go for anyone to remain idle. Let work be
done, and victory all along tho line is as
sured."
The speaker on leaving the floor was
given n good round of cheers, which were
followed by cell for Carpenter He re-
sponded by saying he was home, and he
would give way to the other candidates.
Mr. Jones was then called, who said, Il
was not billed for a speech tonight"
At this moment some one said ''you are
billed for the next county attorney" '>Upon
the citizen," the speaker continued, there
are come duties, as we'll as upon the society
in the aggregate. Every man shonld attend
the primaries. This routine work has been
disposed Of The nominations are made.
Whether they are your choice don't know
The man on the ticket from your town, il is
claimed, is young. l guess he is. That is to
his advantage, and is rather compliment
than otherwise
As to myself, made fare race for the
nomination., and believe the party will elect
me. 1t will be my highest ambition to per
form the duties of the office well.
There is another man and that is |
Judge Jewett. Did you ever hear man say
against him! 1t is universally ad- /
mitted that he has made good official Why

marks in relation to the county ticket, and
