MCKINLEY AT CANAL FULTON.
He Gives the People OF that Town q Second
Hand Speech.

Hand Speech.
EDITOR DRMOCRAT:-Msjor Mckinley
(alias Young NapoleOn) delivered one Of
his speeches at Fulton, Saturday night.
Well, we heard rehearsal of the speech
he delivered at Athens some time ago,
which was nothing new, as part OF 1t
was delivered by Webster before McKin-
ley was born.
He amused himself part Of the time
assailing the administration for not
using the surplus In the treasury to pay
off the National debt. But where was
he that he forgot to tell the reason why
he voted against the Morrison resolution
to pay out the surplusp He then Criti
cise1 President Cleveland for vetOlng
103 measures, and said that they were
all pension bills. Stop little, Major;
take halt. We thank God that you are
not the only person that ls able to read,
for the voters of this district know that
you are not telling the truth, for they
were able to read about the bills for
appropriations for public buildings that
we're vetoed. Their memory Is not as
poor as you think It is. And the rest of
his discourse was the tariff He believes
In high protection for the manufacturer
but wants no protection for the work
iDgmen- He wants the doors opened
and special invitation sent to the pauper
labOTtrs Of the high protected countries
of Europe to come to America 10 crush
our American workingmen. Exs$ 1S,,;.S ,sssS
The only thing the Democrats were
disappointed In, was that he did not
throw little light on Governor For
aker's new discovery, as we expected to
see him have a life-sized convict that
had been skinned by the Democrats

Upon this lofty plane the Republican
leaders are running the campaign of
1885. That the leaders Of q party should
have 80 completely forfeited the conf

to make 1t Unnecessary to rake the peniten.
tiary for proof of their claims, and only
secure these convict sffidaVits on prom

least of it.

PROUD OF HIS STATE.

The kansan is the most patriotic
man in the world. He believes in
Kansas with an abiding faith. He
never questions that his is the best
state in the union. He thinks its
broad plains are the most fertile in
the world: its pure, dry air the most
healthful. He would rather dwell in
his own sod house on the homestead
and eat corn bread and sorghum than
board in q Fifth avenue hotel and eat
according to a French programme.
His household effects may be mcagre,
his agricultural implements crude,
but with "grasshopper" plow,
drawn by a broncho and steer. and
with spade for corn planter, he
will extract more corn and happiness
out of his acres than the eastern agri-
culturalist, with all his silver mounted
implements and car loads of phos-
phate.
Whatever may have been the past
experience of Kansas, prosperity now
seems to be felt in the very air. Never
in its history has the state made such
progress as during the past season.
People flocked within its borders from
near and afar; business has hoomed
and crops have been immense.
Good crops are all but assured for
this year. With the large amount of
rain which has fallen the past fall and
thus far this winter the smaller grains
are sure to yield well.
Unless something now unforeseen
happens, we predict tide of emigra-
ton to Kansas the coming spring
which will surpass the phenomenal one
of the past season.-Leavenworth
Times.

DOWN IN THE TERRITORY,

From our correspondent letter
dated Darlington, Jan. 18th, We find
that the late blizzard was hardly less
severe down in the Territory than
in Kansas. He says the thermometer
dropped to - degrees below zero and
that cattle drifted badly and were five
DAYS without water. The govern
ment and Indian live stock looks worse
than it did last spring on the 1st day
of March. He says that the herders
of private cattle in the Territory and
Oklahoma district ''churned'' the
stock around so much that the loss by
death is bound to be considerable.
The Agency employees have harvested
about sixty tons of clear six-inch ice,
while the people over at Fit. Reno are
putting up large quantities.
Our correspondent says that an
article appearing in the EAGLE, and
which was copied from the Anthony
Republican, touching the proper dis
position of the Oklahoma question,
meets with the appreciation of the
present residents of the Territory and
which is, i'll the judgment of some, the
only practical way of disposing of the
question.

MEADE CENTER CROWS

Meade county is undoubtedly the
most fortunate county organized in
Kansas for years. The election of the
entire ticket nominated by the peo-
pies convention. the final settlement
of the county seat question and the
unanimity OF her citizens upon ali
matters concerning her interests, go TO
prove this fact.
Meade Center is named by the
voters.the county seat by fifty-eight
majority at the first election. Now it
is the duty of every good citizen TO
forget all past differences and Bit
terness and all pull together Cor the
mutual benefit. Meade Center, in
order to be favored as she has been,
made certain promises which must be
fulfilled and carried out to the letter.
Her people must work together now
and henceforth, and remembering that
she has no rival in her own borders.
forget ali previous rivalry and meet
her sister towns in that spirit of fair
ness to which they are entitled. That

CLEVELAND.

"There is one thing about President
Cleveland" said Senator ingalls, to an
interviewer, according to the AtchisOn
Globe, ale suits the Republicans bet
ter than the Democrats, and we are
going to try to REINFORCE and assist
him against the incorrigible spoilsmon
of his own party. Cleveland is mys-
terious man; man without associates,
companions or friends-no man has
anything to do with him except Dan
Manning. AS soon as the shades of
night come on, they take vehicle and
parade around the city. After dinner
they go into the library. 1 haven't
made up my mind whether Cleveland
is great man or a very small one;
but certain it is that he is an extraor-
binary man."
