Gen. Malone and John Wise, CON
testing delegates to the Republican
Convention from Virginia, had an old
fashioned knock down in the commit
tee room, if all reports can be relied
on. They are ex-rebels, and for
years were Democrats, and now since
they have been converted and joined
the Republicans they occasionally
forget themselves and indulge in
democratic ways. The republicans
have them on probation and they
must drop off those old democratic
methods if they expect to become
good republicans.

The following plank was adopted
by the Republican County Conven-
ton of Phillips county, April q,
1888.
Resolved: That we are unalterably opposed to
trusts, mOnOpOles, combinations and other
sOciatOns that have for their object the corner
ing Of the neccessares Of life and the rObbing of
the consumers and the industrial classes OF the
country, and we hereby instruct the delegates
selected by this convention 10 the district and
state conventions to use their utmost endeavOrs,
in all honorable ways, To elect such delegates to
the national convention to be held at Chicago as
may be IN hearty accord with the spirit Of this
national platform embodying the sentiment here
in expressed.
The following plank was adopted
by the National Convention at Chica-
go, June 1888.
We declare our opposition to all combinations
of capital organized IN trusts or otherwise, TO
control arbitrarily the condition of trade among
the state legislatures in their respective juris-
diCuons such legislation as will prevent the eX-
eCutiOn of all schemes to Cypress the people by
such charges on their supplies or by unjust rates
for the transportation of their products to mar
ket.
We approve the legislation by Congress to pre-
evnt alike unjust burdens and unfair discrimina-
ton between the states
So the Phillips county platform
was about right after all, as the
planks say substantially the same
thing.

INGHRsOLL SPEAKS.
An Eloquent Address From the
Prince Of Orators.
49, e IL a RepubHean.

Col Bob IngersoH in his Chicago
speech said:
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN am a
Republican. 1 belong to the great
est, to the grandest party ever organ
lied by the human race 1 belong to
that great party that IS in favor of
giving to every human being equal
rights with every other and the mis-
sion of the Republican party is not
ended until the great Republic shall
be civilized The mission Of that
party is not ended until every man
beneath her flag, not only has the
right to cast his vote in peace but to
have it counted honestly and in
peace.
I am a Republican because that
party is pledged to the protection of
American labor. The country that
raises raw material and sells it as
such viii always be ignorant and
poor. Why? The labor to raise raw
material IS ignorant labor, but the
moment that raw material is worked
into fabrics, fashioned into beautiful
shapes, that requires intelligence.
Consequently the greater number of
industries we have in the United
States the more intelligent our pOpu-
latiOn will be.

years old He may be President.yet.
Phillipsburg herald. [volume] (Phillipsburg, Kan.) 1882-1905, 1888-06-29
WHO IS THE MAN?


Now, having said this little (cries
Of go On), 1 regard the success Of the
Republican party as the most impOr-
tant thing for the republic. In the
next place no single man, whatever
his services may be, no single man no
matter what his capacity Is, is Of the
slightest importance compared with
the success of the Republican party.
Consequently the next question IS
who is the most available other things
equal? I do not care who you are
for or who I am for. The greatques-
ton is, and that question must be
settled at the polls, not in the whirl-
wind Of excitement, but after months
/ of discussion when the hurrah Is out
of your lungs and sense in your
| brain. That question must be set
/ tied by the most intelligent men I'M
/ der the flag, and when you can do a
| thing easily there is no need of strain
/ ing yourselves.
I would like to see this convention
rise to the dignity and splendor Of
! the occasion and I believe you viii.
I would like to see you put out upon
! the next ticket two soldiers who
/ helped to save our country. 1 would
like to see two heroes pitted against
two democrats. I want two patriots
against two copperheads. Then let
the American people make their
choice. Let them say who they VIII
have and my idea is that the man
who did not want to go to Richmond
during the war should not be sent to
! Washington now. The great thing
I want is success. Not simply for a
party, but for my country, and not
simply for my country but for prin-
ciple, because I believe human liberty
IS more important than any country
on the globe. Now being a Repub-
| ican, being for the Republican party
being for protection, wishing and
hoping for success, I am In favor of
the nomination of Walter Q. Gresh-
am. lGreat applause cheering and
waving OF flags, the Illinois delega-
/ ton standing on top of their chairs
and cheering loudly

ANOTHER REASON.

ANOTHER REASON.
Ordinary labor is always cheap.
Labor commands a price in the pro
portion that the mind is mixed with
muscle in the proportion that thought
is mingled with effort. The people
who want us to raise raw material for
England to manufacture, simply vote
for the poverty and ignorance Of
America and for the wealth and in
telligence of Great Britain. I am in
favor of the protection Of American
industries because it Will develop
/ American brain, because under that
/ system we can raise the most beauti-
| full things beneath the stars great
men and great women. Where men
pursue but one industry they become
stupid. Where the industries are
! diversified every part Of the brain is
/ developed and we have use for every
! aptitude, for every talent, and for
/ every kind of genius. I am in favor
of American protection because I'm
! der that policy we have become the
favor of that policy because we are
the most ingenious people who ever
| lived, because, on the average, we
nave LllOIO SClLo0 UIlCl1l tl4LN ECOklC Jl4Ctt
I have ever happened to meet. 1 am
in favor of that policy because here
in the United States we have on the
average better homes, better clothes,
better food and better schools than
any other nation. 1 believe the
hearth-stone is the foundation OF
America. I believe the fire side is
| the alter of the republic. I am in
favor of that policy that viii put a
roof over the head of every mechanic
am not only in favor of the Re
publican party because it is in favor
of protecting industries at home, but
L am in favor Of that party because
it believes in education because il
believes in protecting the rights o.
American citizens everywhere. 1 an
for that party because it gave free
dom, not only to 100000 of people
but to thousands Of millions Of PEG
pie yet unborn. I am in favor Of 1
because you can be a man and be
long to it.

BORN MARCH &c, 1874.
DIED July "a, 1888.

No year has ever passed without some
one dying whom we knew and loved
Every succeeding wear marks its number
and name upon some tombstone in our
cemeteries. Again the silver cord has
been loosed and death claimed as its
prize the noble youth whose presence
enlivened a happy home and made glad
aid Joyous his associates, The golden
bowl has been broken, and as we stoop to
gather up the shattered fragments of his
young life our tears rain upon the earth
where he dreamless sleeps beneath the
falling leaves. Death stationed no herald,
whose bugle notes warned us of his COM
ing.
On the threshold Of life he touched this
young heart pulssting with its hopes and
ambitions, transforming IT into an iclcle.
The proud form which bravely breasted
the winds of heaven and commanded the
admiration of all who knew him has been
laid away in the worlds great wardrobe,
the coffin. How welcome now to our
hearts is the inspiring thought OF life
beyond the tomb torn from US as are the
loved, beautiful and piOus ard borne
away to the quiet slumbers OF the grave.
How overwhelming would be our Rrlei
aad inconsolable our sorrow If In thlE
surance Of sublime and lofty faith that
the spark Of sentient existence goes not
out IN death but that Immortality blooms
and triumphs beyond the grave; and that
when we NAY be called hence. we shall
have loved ones to welcome us ~ We
cross over the river and rest under the
shade of the trees. A fond father looked
IN the coming years to see his hey climb
ing flames dizzy ladder until he should
become q hero in the Arena Of Life. A
mysterious providence has thwarted hls
plans, to day by faith he can view hin on
far nobler plain marshaled amid the
angelic hosts wearing the Crown of Life.
A loving mother looks at the vacant
chair in which she had pictured her fair
boy as q man sitting when age should
have scattered the silver threads abO re
her brow as the pride and comfort of her
declining years. She can rejoice amid her
weeping that he is beyond all grief and
care, outstripprng Mother, Father, and
other loved ones IN reaching first the
heavenly home. Safe in the arms Of Jesus
he will from the Jasper walls watch for
their coming.
The familiar football /. missed, the
well-known vioce is hushed forever, the
places that knew him will know him no
more Yet hi; influence and example
will live after him and has left its i'm
press upon our lives. The ri Ter upon
the White Horse aimed his shaft at a
shining mark. The divinity that shapes
our ends would have US know that he
loeth all things we'll. May we with quiet
and submissive spirit bow beneath the
Christening rod. AS we chiSel his name
upon the marble shaft that shall mark
his resting place, may it be with re-
solve to emulate his virtues and like him
leave an honored name behind w, as a
reminder that we too have been bless
ing to the world in which God has placed
US, scattering roses and sunshine across
the paths of those about us.

cotton seems already all picked. 1t is
unusually early for the cotton to be
cleaned from the fields.

do the best we can for our readers.

men that come to this town remarked to
AS Sunday that when in this part of the
State he always endeavors to spend his

BY We are sending out statements to
those of our subscribers who are behind
on our books and whom we can not cons
Venicn'ly see. We hope they will re-
Spond promptly, as We need the money.
We expect those who come to town to
come in and pay US without being re-
cd in Scotland Neck and that our office is
over the Drug Store.
1t is ext ected that the total number of
exhibitors from all countries 10 the Pari
ENpo>i inn n 1889 will resch 30, O0G. The

October 81, l~S0. 1t is estimated that
l2,0OO, 600 persons Will enter the grounds
and bull lingS. Some idea Of the magri
tude of the exhibition may be gained from
the fact that the totai area of bull lngs
and enclosed grounds which is to be
Ii gated by electrioiry, is 5000, 600 squar C
feet. The space allotted to the United

200 yards from the court house green and
make it a convenience for the people of

easily be run to the court yard, which
would be quite an Improvement for the
town.
We learn that the ci' izcnS " i'll proba-
