educate his party and through 1.-THE people
would get what they want. He said he
got up a split over in Ohio once and went
into the spit, and that movement was
| going to sweep the deck and he was unfor-
tunate enough TO accept nomination on
that combination ticket and was on deck
at the time the sweeping was done and
went off under the old Republican broom,
since that time he kept his hand on the
right broom handle. He paid a tribute to
all the county Republican candidates and
said he saw no reason why every one of
them should not be elected and he believed
they could be, and that Colonel Hallowell
would receive an ovation from his own
county He said he was told by an old
soldier who saw the act, that at the storm
ing of Montgomery hill, a young colonel,
81 years of age, was riding at the head of
his regiment and in the road at his horses
feet lay soldier boy with his dead cold
face turned toward heaven. That young
colonel dismounted, took out his
handkerchief laid it gently over
that white face, and remounted
and made that magnificent charge
which crowned the brow of that young
colonel with the title of prince, a name
sacred to that awful moment. That boy
was Jim HallowelL That name today is
fionted at by some who do not know its
history. and some who have not the cour-
age to earn such name.
w. S. Morris said he was candidate for
county attorney on the Republican ticket
He did not intend to make speech, he
came out to talk to and see the people and
wanted their support and should try if
elected 10 merit it.
w. T. Buckner, candidate for probate
judge, said ne was glad to be there. He
remembered Brother Bentley's split and
didn't think he would 20 into any more
splits. He was young man then.
Ed Phillips, candidate for legislature,
said he had been paying very close atten-
ton to what his Alliance friends had TO
say. He was a member in good standing
in the Alliance, but was at the same time
Republican and farmer, because he be-
lieved the Alliance should not go into poll
tics as an organization. 1t would destroy
the organization. He was kindly disposed
toward his opponent, and knew no good
reason why Republican should not vote
for him. He had tried hard to do his duty
for his farmer friends
Charles H. Luliag, candidate for clerk,
said he he did not come to talk, he came
to see many Of his friends and was willing
to leave his cause in their hands
The meeting was grand success; every
one seemed pleased with the meeting, the
speakers and with themselves, and from
the beginning to the close the whole meet |
ing was one of good-fellowship. The Re
publican ticket will poll its full vote at

GRAND MASTER MATHEwsoN.

In its comments upon the action Of the
Grand Lodge, l. o. q. F., in electing Hon.
William Mathewson to the position of
grand master. the Topeka Democrat has
this to say of our worthy fellow citizen:
Grand Master William Mathewson, Of
Wichita. who was elected to that position
today, is one of the best known members
of the order in the state, where he has re-
sided since 1852. He was born in Bing-
hampton, n. j., in 1880, and came west in
1S49 crossing the Mississippi river where
Omaha now stands. He was the builder
of the first log house in Wichita, portions
of which are still standing.
Mr.. MathewsOn is considered to have
done as much, if not more for the cause
of the Odd Fellowship in the state, and es-
pecially in the southwestern portion, than
any other man. He is known and every
where recognized as a tireless worker for
the cause and it was but a fitting recog-
milton for his services that he was elected
to the responsible position OF grand mas
ter.
Mr.. Mathewson is the original Buffalo
Bill'' of Kansas, and has store Of remin-
iscences on hand. that, if published, would
make very interesting reading. He is at
present engaged in the banking business
at Wichita

THAT FIRE.

Yesterday the EAGLE was in receipt of a
thousand or more telephone and other
messages inquiring why the paper did not
contain an account of the fire night before
last. The query will probably remain un-
answered until the time when the en-
vironments of the newspaper reporter will
be too hot to make such fire of any i'm
portance. 1t was early in the evening and
the fire department was out in force, the
whistles blew and the bells rang. and all
the upper end of the city was tumult-
uously tossing about meath the lurid light
of the burning building. The hog and
COW reporter was Immediately notified, the
foreman of the composing room called up
by telephone. the joint city council and
political reporter pulled out Of bed, and
still there was no report OF the fire
ever got into type. One of the staff
followed an engine from Oak street 10

ment sent in the full details at the earliest
moment, yet the EAGLE came out yester-
day morning with an extra issue Of a
thousand copies which were ali sold before
the newsboys found out that the paper did
not contain a single word about the fire.
Finally a notice had TO be posted in the
rooms TO the effect that the re-
porter whose business il was 10 make up a
report of the fire had suicided some hours
previous TO the turning in OF the first
alarm. whereupou and after which every

The Republican central committee yes
terday rearranged the meetings for the

changes The meetings that have beer
held have in every case been seed sown In
good ground and in the various townships
the average voter wants another meeting.
The members of the committee who have
been giving the work the most attention
say that this is above all other campaigns
a campaign for speech making. That PEG
pie are very earnest and don't want to
hear ranting but want TO hear facts. A
dry speech filled with facts, or speech
that would ordinarily be termed an eX-
tremely dry one is of more value this year
than the fash kind.

even pleasure for the average speaker to
appear before the public.
