The committee has got $4,000 to ex-

as much more by subscription among
General Logan's old friends, so that
the statue will be costly one.

Topeka. Dec. 8.-The peoples
party politicians have practically had
possession OF the town this week, and
until the 81, 900 voted by the last legis-
lature to conduct the state house inves-
tigation Is exhausted material for the
caliApaign OF 1892 will be daily ground
out. The leaders IN the new movement
have made the announcement that ne
fusion will be made and that their
headquarters will he kept open until
after the campaign. They have dis
cussed the state and national campaigns
and majority OF them believe that
both nominating conventions should be
that the head OF the national ticket
should be Union soldier and
that the second place should 60
to a southern man. Weaver
OF Iowa and Polk. OF North Carolina Is
about the Kansas peoples party idea.
The union OF the north and south will
make taking campaign cry in this
state and 1t will be worked for all II Is
worth II the republicans spring the
bloody shirt. The peoples party poll
ticians recognize that they will have to
do some good campaign work il the ma
tional ticket Is carried. NoJwithstand-
ing their loud cries OF straight ticket,
they expect help from the democrats.
In addition to the sub.alliance or
CARNATIONS, they will form peoples
party clubs, and the executive commit.
tee. with S. w. Chase ut its head, will
have charge OF THE work. Chase Is ex-
pected to do Just what Dimbould neg
lected 70 do. II McGruth intends to
desert the peoples party his action In
nominating Chase for the executive
committee craftsmanship is unexplaina-
BILE. Chase has already gone to work
in earnest and the political conditions
OF c7ery section OF the state will be
known by him within two months.
the state house investigating COM
mittee will DO worked by the peoples
party central committee for all 1t is
worth. In addition to finance, trans
p)rtation and land, the peoples party
in 1892 will force 'turn-the-rascals
oIt' campaign, and men like Mayor
Nicely OF Leavenworth will help them.
Roth Chase and Dumbould will work to
reorganize the peoples party on fight
ing basis during the next two weeks.
The alliance has German, Swede and
Russian lecturers and these will be
given work to do. The statement
sent out from Topeka that
Dumbold would haye nothing
more to do with the work OF the
peoples party central committee Is q
mistake. Dumbould wanted to resign
because OF lack OF time to devote To
politics. out the committee would not
listen to him and he was given charge
OF the campaign work as OF old. DICK
Chase's position as chairman OF the
executive committee is to do the work
outlined by the central committee.
Dumbould is one OF the brainiest men in
the new party and Chase is one OF the
best workers In any party. He Is tire,
less and never shirks, and for this rea-
son he was given the place.

EMPoRIA, Dec. 8.-The coroner's
Jury this morning rendered verdict OF
death by accident in the case OF Charles
Calvert, q normal student who was
killed Saturday evening last by David
L. Stanley, also normal student. The

dent was caused by D. L. Sample, an
other student, putting two cartridges
into the chambers without warning the
other students.
The pistol was picked up and care
lessly snapped by Mr.. Stanley, as he
had done but few minutes before, and
the result was the almost instant death
OF Calvert the ball striking him In the
right temple and penetrating TO the
brain and to the opposite side OF the
head, where it lodged just beneath the
skin.
The body OF the dead youth was yes
terday conveyed to Muscotah, Atchison
county. Over o thousand normal
students followed the body, in double
file to the depot.
Stanley was wild with grief, and for
time 1t was feared that he would lose
his mind. His home Is at Colbert
Lincoln county, Kansas.

bed Near 80. Louia.
ST. LOUIS. December S.-A bold and
successful train robbery took place on
the st. Louis & San Francisco road at
Glendale, ten miles from this city,
shortly before 10 o'clock last night.
The robbers had their plans we'll laid,
and they escaped with money and valu.
ables to the amount OF $4,000. The
Adams Express company was the vic
tim, and from the manner in which the
robbers did the job it is evident that
they intended to make clean sweep Of
the express car. They used dynamite
with fearful effect. both on the car and
on Messenger J. T. Mulrennen, who had
charge OF the car.
Six men participated in the robbery.
When the train reached Old Orchard II
is supposed that four men boarded the
express car, two climb the front plat
form and two the rear. The other two,
it is believed, boarded the train at
Glendale.

e We wonder if Henry George will
ever forget that memorable anniver-

part of a seventeen-column grafton
at the California Theater? He began
his Grafton late in the afternoon.
After he had spoken for an hour or
SO the gallery began to manifest I'M
mistakable signs ofimpatience. The
orator deemed it timely to skip a
hundred pages, and conclude with
the peroration. This was deftly
done, and then, getting fresh wind,
he began:
"A thousand years hence who will
fight for liberty?"
"A thousand years hence who will
write for liberty?"
"a thousand years hence who will
speak for liberty?"
The pause at the last liberty in
spring interrogatory was broken by
a voice in the gallery, which rang
thus through the theater:
