alludes in the above paragraph.
The program committee have re-
ceived q letter from Capt. J. b. john
con, Of Topeka, stating that he will
be here and address the Republican
Club at its next meeting, April "a.
Capt. johnson IL one of the ''rOusing-
est" political orators in Kansas, and
we want to give him q rousing audi

made next week.
At the meeting of the Republican

We neglected last week, to call at
tention to the fact that we recently
printed 2 600 real estate papers for the
Neosho Valley Land Agency. These
papers contain a great deal of informa

which Lacquer was recently elected.
Last Saturday while he was blowing
in the field, masked man rode up to
the fence and fired two shots at him
with revolver, then galloped rapidly
away. The balls struck unpleasantly
near him but none of them took effect. |

ness with which a hound pup gets
away from the vicinity of a humble

1t begins to look as if the President
would be given an opportunity to veto
