ouR ooxoHxss1rAr.

When the Convention met at Fl.
Scott last Thursday to nominate can.
didate for Congress from the Second
District, the only name mentioned
was that Of e. 81. Funston. For the
third successive term he was nomin.
ated without opposition and by accla-
nation.
When Mr.. Funston was first chosen
after hard Struggle, to fill out the un.
expired term of the lamented Dudley
Haskell in the spring of 1884, 1t was
doubtful If his most sanguine friends
would have dared predict the success
that followed. He was renominated
at Paola in the fall Of that year be.
cause 1t was no more than justice that
he should have one full term. He was
again nominated at Ottawa two years
later because the opposition could not
combine on any one Of his three or four
rivals. He was nominated at Ft.
Scott last week, without any prelim-
mary canvass, without any special
effort on the part of his particular
friends, because it was tacitly admitted
everywhere that he is the best man in
the District for the place.
This pre-eminence is the result of
honesty, of faithtulness to the interests
of his constituents, and of hard work.
Mr.. Funston has few of the arts or
graces of the mere politician. He does
not know how to ''flatter and speak
fair" He is not much of a hand-shak-
er. He is simply a bluff, everyday
American, with q faculty of doing
with his might what his hands and
head find to do. When he was pri-
vate citizen on his farm he made FARM
ing his business and he made 1t pay.
When he was elected to Congress he
devoted himself with his whole mind
and strength to the performance of the
duties of his high office.
He will be reelected this fall for the
fourth time by au increased majority,
and he will return to the halls of Con-
gress worth. FROM experience, four
times as much for his constituents
as he was the first time, or
as any new man would be.
The Second District has done we'll in
by Hon. E. H. Funston.

invariably replied with decorus irony,
and additional evidence Of his disloyal-
ty. He left voorhees, in that great
presence, to some an object Of pity, to
others an object Of derision. and no one
to do him reverence. There has been
no such scene in the Senate In all its
history. The galleries and floor Of the
Senate were densely crowded bv those
who had come to hear Mr.. Ingalls,.
The day will be q memorable one In
the history of the Senate. 1t was o
proud day for Kansas and proud day
for Ingalls,.
