OF Bernard Kelley and Jim Troutman
which one says ''sic 'ems"
A foregone conclusion: The Alliance
defiance lacks science.
The First district had more than its
share of Moonlight, last night.
There will be time enough to talk OF
Judge Thatcher for the senate after 1897.
Justice Brewer has been assigned Justice
Millers' circuit. A Kansas man never for
gets the state
Senator Ingalls, will begin his second
generation of service in the senate on
March the fourth, 1894.
A week or so after the results of the
election are known, the feuds, such as
they are, will begin to develope.
Senator Ingalls, is the only public man in
Kansas who has to tie string to his hat
when he is making public speech.
Jay Gould and his son George sat on the
| platform at the Perkins meeting at Par
| sons, the other night-not, however, by
special requst"
There was more than one man at the
polls yesterday who had to be informed
that Senator Plumb was not to be voted
for at this election.
Senator Plumb spoke at Wellington yes
terday afternoon and then the crowd fol-
lowed him down to Arkansas City where
he spoke last night.
Sol Miller says that if John Klopenstein,
candidate for superintendent of Atchison
county, was born in Ohio, Germany may
as well be abolished.
Father Rice and Bill watched each other
through the long hours last night Filial
and paternal attention, however, is not al
ways synonymous with love.
Senator Plumb was announced to speak
after Farmer Funston at Kansas City the
other night. 1t is one thing to speak to
an audience and another to hold it.
In point of population Kansas has adj
vanced from the twentieth place in the list
of the states to the nineteenth. The sure
ness of Kansas is not always as slow as
that.
Opinions differ. Sherman doesn't like
Wagnerian music. An Alliance calamity
shrieker declares that "Sherman's march
to the sea is the blacklist page in American
history"
Il reiterate the interrogation, said a
pompous old gentlemen with red side
burns at the polls last night, 'What has
Ingalls, done?" well, l will tell you"
said a dapper little man with a high plug
hat. che has gone and got elected again"
eff you should send your boy to the back
yard to perform certain work and he should
return without having accomplished it,"
shouted a calamity orator when berating
John j. Ingalls,, ''what would you do with
him? repeat it, what would you do with
himy" ''Send him backp' shouted an old
farmer, and the distant hills rang back the
echoes of tremendous applause.
For the last month he has been up every
night into the morning hours, he has
drunk, smoked, talked himself sick He
has patronized rascals, button-holed
debauchees and clapped the dissolute dog
on the shoulder and called him a good fell
low. And for it all he has been elected
constable" Still this same man will at
times call his wife impracticable, whim-
steal and unreasonable.
The United States survey of the lands of
the Iowa Indians. whose reservation is on
the Nebraska line north of Brown county
is nearing completion. The survey made
two years ago was not received by the de-
partment. The allotments for the Iowas
will be made soon, the Sac and Fox In
dams of Missouri, have already taken
their allotments. The residue of these
lands will in short time be offered for
sale.
From Professor Shows weather report
for October: A delightful autumn month,
with temperature slightly warmer than
usual and rainfall nearly double the aver
age amount. The cloudiness and wind We
locity were slightly below the normal !
values. The first severe frost of the sea-
son, when the mercury for the first time |
fell below the freezing point, occurred on |
the 27th-one week later than the average !
date. This long absence of freezing tenn
temperature from the air above the ground |
explains the unusually long continuance |
Of the bright autumn foliage. Rain fell in |
quantities on six days. There |
were two thunder showers. The entire |
rainfall of the ten months of 1890 now COM
pleted, has been 81 &c inches, which is O. 90 |
inch above the average for the same |
months in the preceding twenty-five years.
The total run of the wind was l0. $40 miles,
which is 523 miles below the October aver
lge This gives mean daily velocity of
$50 Ga miles and a mean hourly velocity of
l46I miles. The highest velocity was 80
miles an hour, on the 18th from 2 to pm.
From present indications it looks very
much like the 81 told you 500 if this cam
Daign would be delayed day or two.
