Old Settlers Meeting.
ABILENE, January Both, 1886.

ABILENE, January Both, 1886.
EDITORS REFLECTOR
Gentlemen-Persons scarcely ever
write for publication without purpose
and l, in common with mankind, do the
same.
l visited Topeka on Friday, January
10Th, 1886, to be present at the 25th
anniversary of the admission of Kansas
into the Union of States of the United
States and gotten up by the early pion-
GERS or old settlers.
The meeting was a grand success in
attendance and conduct; facts were
brought to light by these old
and stalwart pioneers that have lain
hidden and unearthed through the pub
lished history Of Kansas. Noone could
be present at that meeting without no
ticing the marked ability of the men
who took part; great men twenty-five
years ago and to-day giants in ability
and intellect. l thought as witnessed
the proceedings, this is the last occasion
at which so many of these old and hon
orable pioneers will be gathered tOgeth-
er. Perhaps no state, venture the as
sertion that the whole United States,
could not at any one time or on any oc-
casion, bring together class OF men
equal in talent, patriotism and determ-
nation determined because in the
right, patriotic because freemen and to
the Manor born"
But l noticed one thing did not like
reserved seats for the members of the
Senate and House of Representatives.
If seats were to be reserved for any one
class, why not let the old settlers occupy
them? The Senators and Representa-
tives have reserved seats in their cham
bers, and this is distinction enough
without setting apart seats at the old
settlers meeting. But neither House in
any great number were present and the
seats were filled by Topeka people and
friends to the exclusion of old settlers
and people living outside of the city and
strangers who, like myself, had come
to Topeka to witness the affair.
l left the city feeling Disguised and
satisfied that the same selfish DISPOSE
ton is manifested in Topeka as in othel
parts of the country who display very
little of the spirit fought and commended
for by the early pioneers of Kansas.

The Gazette Of the 1st inst. makes
the charge THAT great minds run in
the same channel" and then charges
the REFLECTOR with using an editorial
from its columns and appropriating it
to its own. We nerer SglC the article in
question in the columns of the Gazette,
and further we have never seen an ar
ticle in that paper, as original, that was
in any way worthy of a place in the
columns of the REFLECTOR. And
again, George the whiskey law violator,
says the article was copied Shy great
many of the exchanges and in each in
stance due credit was given the Gazette"
Now as fact in the case the little ar
ticle in question was published in the
press dispatches of the city papers
without any special credit, and as an
item of state news, and in not single
instance can he truthfully name a
paper that has published the item and
given the Gazette credit for it. George,
this is little free advertising for your
lnknOlcn paper, and now that your
journal has been brought into prOmin-
ence never again accuse the REFLECTOR
of using the brains of your paper unless
it be to use the paper in Sx9 inch slips.
