Topeka has claimed him and until
recently no one has had the courage
TO seriously contest che claim. The
race has been between j. X. Hudson
and A. g. Stacy, and though they
have been, first one and then the
other, just a little ahead at different
points on the track, they have man
aged TO come out neck and neck az
they passed under the wire; 90 that IL
has been impossible 70 award either
one the blue ribbon. But there is
fresh blood on the track. The race
is to be more hotly contested here
after. Stacy and Hudson must look
to their laurels. The new courser
comes INTO the field with a determine
tion to win. His first effort promises
success. IL relates to a resolution
which the editor Of the Weekly In
terror Herald, Fletcher Merideth,
says was passed by the Reform Press
Association at its recent meeting at
Hutchinson. Here is what he says:
After diNgent search we found gentleman
who was present az the meeting and was able 30
furnish us the resolutions In full. The above 10
the hrst part OF the series and here Ia the closing
sweet scented production, which the entire out
1t OF former Democratic, Union labor. anarch-
ist, mugWump, whiskyite, sOrehead aggregation
were afraid 10 publish.
Resolved, That We condemn the Organization
known as tho Grand Army Of the Republic, or
ganized for he purpose Of preying upon che
United States treasury and thereby fIChlng from
the people In the form OF pensions, money not
their due. We also condemn the membership
Of sold organization for pressing upon aud dc.
manding OF the people the right 10 hold office
and be recognized as an active factor In the poll.
tics OK the country, The right 10 vote we do not
question, but their right 10 dictate or suggest DO.
lltiCAl action and political policy we denOunCe,
and we, the representatives OF the reform (Alll-
anee) press, do hereby pledge ourselves to resist
such presumption on the part generally Of the
0X-uniOn soldier, but especially CT the Grand
Army Of the Republic"
IL is scarcely necessary to state that
no such resolution was adopted. No
such resolution wRs introduced. No |
such sentiment was expressed. No
such Thought was entertained by any |
Of Che association. Mr.. Meri-
dith is evidently liar Of great re-
sources His initial effort is q dandy. |
Ho at once takes high rank in his
profession. He is entitled to an even
start and a fair chance with his only
competitors, Hudson and Stacy.
Hutchinson may yet secure the blue
ribbon. The NeSCs has made o few
feeble attempts 70 got il, but has al
ways been digtanced. Hutchinson is
evidently bound to win. We enter
