OUR democratic-rebel friend John
Eskridge, called in at THE NEWS office
to-day with face beaming with smiles.
to leave with us the information that
Emporia was now well-governed-by
democrats. John is correct-from his
view of the case. There is little Won
der, however, that democratic presi-
dent is in the White House at Wash
| ington, when honest and competent re-
publicans are so scarce in Lyon county
that democrats have to receive all the
city appointments in Emporia. If
democrats are good enough to fill all
positions of trust and emolument in q
republican city, it stands to reason that
democrats are equally well fitted to fill
the Offices of the state and nation, and
no republican citizen of Emporia should
find fault with Grover Cleveland here
after, until he has done his best to see
that republicans rule the city he resides
in. IT is shame and disgrace tc
every republican voter in Emporia that
I council can hold Office in this city which
deliberately overlooks the claims of 8
majority of the voters and make nearly
every one of their appointments from
the minority party.
