ST. JOHN. KANSAS.

To the Editor Of the Eagle.~
The county Democracy met in conven-
ton Saturday, and placed full ticket in
the field NJ B. Walker for representative.
j. Frank Guernsey probate judge, c. II.
Higgins county attorney, Charles Campbell
district clerk, Mrs A. B. Wheeler super
intcndent of public instructions and George
w. Vreeland commissioner. The ticket is
a strong one, and considering the split in
the Republican ranks, stands a good show
of election.
The Swartz wing of the republican party
under the name of the peoples mass con
vention, also met and nominated a full
ticket Saturday last, with Hon. E. Ross
Swartz at the head for representative, Gen.
j. A. Cooper for probate judge. John w.
Rose county attorney, Wm. Dixon county
clerk, j. Salmon superintendent of public
instruction and S. A. Martcna commits
Sioner
Four tickets now in the field, those above
reported, with Prohibition and straight
Republican ticket While the county is
clearly Republican, yet there is considerable
solicitation on the part Of the straight Re-
publican ticket At best it is mixed
affair with the odds in favor of Walker the
Democratic nominee or Swartz the peoples
nominee for representative.
Notwithstanding the political ''kickings'
ST. John continues to prosper. Her growth
has been unusually rapid for the past few
months. having almost doubled her popu-
lation since March 1, 1886.

THE ISSUE, SQUARELY.

In this campaign the issue is direct. Both
the Republican and Democratic platforms
are explicit There is no dodging or evas-
ion. Col! Moonlight stands squarely on an
anti-prohihition platform, and Governor
Martin who in 1882 was pronounced an
ti-prohibitioniSt. is now the Jealous advocate
Of the present law.
No one will deny that 4 large element,
possibly more than one-half of the voters
of Kansas desire reSubmission There is
not one valid reason why the constitutional
amendment should not again be submitted
to 4 vote Of the people. \ large portion of
the voters OF Kansas demsnd resub-
mission, and in no way can there be a
final settlement of this question b1t by
again submitting the prohihitory amend
ment to avote Of the epeople.-Kansas Dem
Ocrat
If Moonlight is standing squarely on an
anti-prohibition platform. as you say, and.
Martin is jealous advocate of the pres
cnt law, and Martin should happen to be
elected by thirty or forty thousand ma
jority why don't that settle it? After the
voters have said that they want Martin and
prohibition instead of Moonlight and re.
submission why not drop the subject? In
this country majorities are supposed 10 rule
and when that majority not only once.
twice, but half dozen times speak en-
phatically. that is enough.-El Dorado Re

THE WAY HUTCHINSON LOOKS AT IT
From the Hutchinson News.

From the Hutchinson News.
Hutchinson was honored this morning
with visit from the most distinguished
railroad magnates this world has produced,
viz: Jay Gould, George Gould and A. l..
Hopkins. The party came over from st.
Louis in Mr. Gould's private car. and was
accompanied by Mrs. George Gould, who
was making her first visir 10 Kansas, and
the officials of the Wichita & Colorado, in
Guiding Col. Marsh Murdock. of the
EAGLE. The whole party at once took car
riages for drive over the principal streets,
and were loud in their praises of the Queen
city. Said Mr.. Gould: L am greatly sur
prised at what see here | had heard
much of Hutchinson aud her wide
awake business men, bu; / had
no idea OF the reality Ger
tainly Hutchinson is destined to make a
city. Wichita and Hutchinson viii be the
two large cities of Western Kansas. ;"
But are not the two towns too close to-

Senator Plumb in his speech at Usage
City Saturday showed the policy of the
Democratic claims 10 asoendcncy which,
they claim because they had not paid the
southern war claims and only vetoed ll5
pension bills: the right TO promotion be-
cause they said they would diminish the
number of employees and thereby curtail
the government expense, when in fsct
they have increased the number Of en-

Ing hospitals and asylums for the unfortunate and for other noble and beneficial purposes instead of vast Ing 1t ln making unnecessary mil 1lonalres and manufacturing millions oi needless tramps as is now done by the present improper, expensive and wasteful system of competitive con porate control and mismanagement of American highways by which sys- tenn the middle classes are being ground out of existence between the upper and neither mill stones of cor tending corporate capital and labor. The few rich are daily growing rich CT without work. and the many poor are daily growing poorer with over work and excessive hours of labor. \ very few capitalists with corpora tons now control and are steadily swallowing up all others, with no llmt to their growing rapacity or capacity for such swallowing pro- cess; the great corporations are so rapidly absorbing the lesser by their constantly increasing power for sue eessful competition that there were more miles of railway taken from weak or small companies by their larger rivals in the first six months o1 1883 than were constructed by the entire nation: more miles have been swallowed by strong companies than have been constructed by all com panles for years. There is no limit to this work of destruction by com petition until all lines are owned by one company and operated by one man. To combat this tendency toward one-man power and to cause the people to regain control of their highways as they had in the days of our patriotic forcfathers. before cor poratlons were permitted to exist is the desire of the Grand Army of Labor, and to accomplish it they urge all to form clubs or squads in every ward and precinct throughout America. and work and vote for the National Government to own and operate the railways for the benefit of all as it now does with the mails and Post Office.
