HIAWATHA FOR HARRISON.
A Lively Meeting and Joint Discus
sion Saturday Night.

When the Abilene speakers who had
been advertised to address the people
of Hiawatha, arrived at their destina-
ton Saturday night they found not
only large audience in attendance
but found also some Union Labor
speakers on the ground determined to
force their way into the meeting. The
LabOrites had attempted to hold a
meeting the first of the week and could
get nobody to attend, so they took sd-
vantage of the Republican meeting to
get somebody to talk to.
The Republicans, though recognizing
that the Labor fellows had no business
in the meeting, inasmuch as they had
not been invited, nevertheless agreed
to divide time with them and have a
joint discussion of the political ques-
tions of the day.
Mr.. Chambers presided and intro
duced L. f. Smith, the Union Labor
candidate for State Senator Smith de-
voted most of his time to stale rehash
of the old Greenback party's doctrine
and abuse of his opponent, darkness.
o. L. Moore followed him and by a
solid array of facts and argument
showing the fallacy of defunct green
backism, and then proceeded to trea-
the Union Labor party to dose of sta
tistics that was sufficient to do Smith up
in good shape. Mr.. Moore then de-
voted his time to logical and unan-
swerable discussion of the living issues
of tie day, devoting his arguments
principally to the fallacies of Democrat
ic tariff reform. B. NJ. Anderson was
the next speaker and he worked off a
sickly, sentimental wall about the suf-
fering and calamity of Dickinson coun.
ty. j. P. Campbell was fully equal tc
the occasion and made the argument(?
of Anderson look very sick. The dis
cussiOn was grand victory for the
Republican speakers and the UnioI
Laborites were about the sickest mis-
sionaries that ever got showed under
They demonstrated to the entire salts
faction of the hearers their paucity Of
ideas and inability to offer any valid
| argument for their party.
The Republicans of Rinehart town
ship are ''all right" for the straight
Republican ticket and every appearance
of Union Labor orators in the vicinity
increases the feeling for Republican

A BRIGHT LIFE ENDED.
Death of Mrs. n. C. Hemenway, of
Hope, at Ellinwood, Kas.

Sad news was received Friday after
noon in the shape of telegram from
NJ. C. Hemenway at Ellinwood an
nouncing the death of his wife at that
place this morning. Mrs. Hemenway
went from her home, Hope, about two
weeks ago on a visit to friends in Ellin-
wood. She was taken i'll with pneu-
monia and on Tuesday her husband
was called to her bedside. Her death
took place, as stated, this morning.
Mrs. II. was one of the best known
and most popular ladies of the county.
She was the only daughter of Samuel
Channon, formerly prominent farmer
of Southeast Dickinson but now of
Lost Springs, and came here with her
parents when quite young. Gussie
was bright girl, vivacious, attractive
and accomplished and made friends
everywhere. For time she was a
teacher in the county schools. About
seven years ago she married NJ. c.
Hemenway and the young couple
moved to Ellinwood, where Mr.. H. was
afterward engaged in business.
In 1885 they came to Hope where
hey have since resided. Mrs. H. was
sister-in-law of Mrs. E. C. Adams
and relative of Mrs. F. A. White,
of Abilene, and the families of A. M.
Crary and c. M. Teats, of Hope. Two
children are by her decease left moth
erless. Mr.. Hemenway is now a prom
inent merchant of Hope and proprietor
of the Hope Dispatch.
This sad death removes from earth a
kind and devoted christian wife and
mother and a much-loved neighbor and
| friend. All who knew her admired
her for her many noble qualities of in
tellect and heart.
We, in common with her scores OF
friends, extend to the sOrrOwing rela.
tives, earnest and sincere sympathy in
their sad bereavement.
The remains were brought to Abb.
lene over the Rock Island Saturday
The funeral services were held in the
NJ. E. church, Rev. Zimmerman Offici
ating, and the interment was made il
the Abilene cemetery.

Look out for Demo-
cratic lies on the eve
Of election when too
late to be answered
by Republicans.
Political Chat.

W. S. Anderson is practically elected
already. His opponent is cutting no
figure whatever in the campaign.
The Abilene Harrison and Morton
glee club are winning laurels by their
fine singing. They are in much de-
mand.
John W. Gibson is candidate of
whom the 69th district may we'll be
proud. He is without fear and with
out reproach."
Is Mr.. MalOtt going to pledge him
self to work for lower interest laws?
He has not yet done so and apparently
does not intend to,
There is growing disgust with the
Union Labor windbags. The party
will come out away at the lower end of
the list next Tuesday.
A striking transparency in the Hope
rally procession said: ''VOte the
straight ticket if it is a mile long,
That is the watchword for this year.
Let every Republican observe the rule.
The high school commissioners are
important officials in Dickinson county
this year. Messrs. Ellison and Hoag
ale gentlemen of unquestioned worth
and should receive overwhelming ma
jorities.
B. M. Anderson, the U. L. candidate
for Representative in the 69th district,
has issued proclamation" to the peo-
pie. 1t is about as long as the Presi-
dents message and about as idiotic in
its statements.
Dickinson county never had better
commissioner than J. W. Baker and the
second district will put him again on
the board by more than the former ma
jority. We are glad of it; for it proves
that he is appreciated.
J. W. Gibson is in every way the
equal of his competitor for Represen-
tative in the Goth district. Then he is
a Republican and for that reason alone
he is entitled to the hearty support of
every voter in his district.
One of the Democratic campaign lies
that has been put forth is that the Re
publican candidate for probate judge is
L. A. Peck, the Carlton merchant who
failed in business some time ago. 1t
does not take very extensive knowl-
edge to discriminate between B. W.
Peck, the farmer and school teacher,
and L. A. Peck, the merchant, but the
uniformed in distant parts of the
county are thus being imposed upon.
