GREAT MEETING.

Saturday night she people of Grant and
many from adjoining townships met en-
masse in the Park school house for a last
political rally before election. Republic
ans, Democrats and Peoples party sat
down in brotherly love to hear the truth
expounded by Hon. Rodolph Hatfield.
The house was overlooking. Many ladies
were present and a number Of voters were
compelled to stand during nearly two
hours, while Mr.. Hatfield. rapidly, clearly
and convincingly exposed fallacies and
proved the right of the Republican party
to lead the nation. 1t was by far the larg
est political rally held in this part of the
county this year, and the close attention
and "old time" enthusiasm portend well
for the ticket in Grant.

ANTE-ELECTIoN BETH Nc.

The betting around the pool rooms was
slow last night. Republicans were doing
all the betting or at least were making all
the offers to bet for there were really no
takers comparatively speaking. Seventy
to fifty was offered that Ault would be the
next sheriff of Sedgwick county but no
body seemed to care TO take it. A SO bet
that Moore would be the third man in the
judicial race was peddled about for two
hours but in vain for there was no Demo
crat present who had the nerve to accept
it. Twenty-Five to five were offered on
Reed, but this bet, like the others was not
taken at late hour.
The bets that were made were principal
" on Ohio with a few on Iowa. Mckinley
was the favorite and those who wanted to
bet that he will carry Ohio today were
more numerous, by far, than those who
wanted to bet that he wouldn't. The
feeling last night was that the entire Re-
publican county ticket will be elected. The
election of the entire Republican ticket
was conceded by all the leading Democrats
last night as early as 8 O'Clock but the Al
lance men would not cOncede the election
of either Reed or Ault but practically cou-
coded the election of the balance of the
ticket. They felt confident that Babb and
Slower would be elected on their ticket
They seem to be encouraged by the fact
that all the shrewd politicians in town
both Democrats and Republicans are
acknowledging that the fight is between
the Republicans and the Alliance in those
two offices.

He was apparently ~ a great hurry. and
hastily etc his breakfast and started Tor

entering the car two men noticed his
coughing slightly and then leaning bis
head on the back Of the seat IN front %

to him. as they supposed he was merely
clearing his throat OF some Temporary 90

VICTORY SURE IN sUANER.

Major Ferguson of Wellington, was IN
the city yesterday on his way to ElDorado,
where he was billed for aspeech last night.
He felt good over the prospects for the Re
publican ticket in Sumner county and ex-
pressed himself as being satisfied that II
would be elected from top to bottom lie
said the Republican sheriff was practically
elected and that with all their ability to
claim everything the Alliance conceded
his election. The Democrats it appears
are going to vote for him in body on &C
count of his personal popularity and far
ness to them during the two years he Las
been in office. His official career Is, 1t
seems a very good one, never having let
a prisoner escape from the Jail, which Is
rare thing in Sumner county or never
failing to catch but one thief during the
two years he has been in office.

FROM THE TERRITORY.

Mrs. Hendrickson and her daughter re-
turned home Sunday night from Fort
Supply, l. T., where they had been for
some weeks visiting Colonel Bryant and
family. They report verT pleasant and
enjoyable time Colonel and Mrs. Bryant
and the officers and ladies of the garrison
did all in their power to make the time
pass pleasantly. something in the line of
amusement or diversion being on the taps
every day.
Fort Supply is at present garrisoned by
three companies of the Thirteenth infantry
and two troops of the Fifth cavalry, all
under command of Colonel Bryant. A
fine regimental band one of the best in the
army, adds greatly to the pleasure of all
and was particularly attractive to Mrs.
Hendrickson who is used to more life than
territorial post would otherwise afford

Hon. Rodolph Hatfield and Senator o.
H. Bentley spoke 10 a fine Republican
meeting at Caldwell last night The pres
ence of the distinguished speakers was
sufficient to draw large house of enthus-
iastic people. many ladies and some ALI
auce men. A meeting lasting three hours
was held and all the issues of the present
campaign carefully, fairly and logically
discussed The speakers spoke for the
financial credit and the good name of Kan
sas. They laid special stress upon the
great harm the calamity howl has done to
the state Many of the candidates on the
Republican ticket were present and they,
as well as the people went away well sat
isfed with the meeting.
The Republicans in Sumner county are
in line and they are confident Of electing
every man on their ticket. With the
present enormous crops of Sumner county
which are not excelled by any county in
Kansas, there is no room for calamity.

MRS. SMITHS WOUND NOR SERIOUS

Sunday Mrs. DR.. Smith and her daughter
and grandchild were thrown from their
buggy al the corner of Lawrence aud
Lewis streets and it was thought for a
time that Mrs. Smith was seriously hurt
but fortunately, and very much 10 the
qualification OF her numerous friends. her
injuries were found to be, upon examina-
ton, not near so serious as was first eX-
pected. The team which they were driving
was frightened by two boys running a
race and in short turn the buggy was
turned over throwing the occupants 10
the ground Mrs. Champions wrist was
sprained while the baby was uninjuTed.
Mrs Smith was taken home and DR..
Crosby summoned who dressed her wound
which was confusion on the left side of
the head. The alarm which was ct first
felt was created by the belief that the
ladies' skull had been broken DR. Crosby
says that while the wound is painful IL is
not serious and that ne expects Mrs. Smith
10 be well again in few days.

A. o. U. w.

The anniversary service of the A. o. U.
W., held in the First Presbyterian church,
was well attended by the public. The
center of the church was held for mem
bers of the A o. U. W., which was tolera-
bly, well filled by them and their ladies.
DR.. Winters preached good sermon in
which he read the general principles of
the a. o. U. w. as preface to the SER
mon. The sermon was feast of spiritual
good things, well delivered by the doctor,
and as well received by the audience. Such
services are of great benefit to any order,
and from the numbers attending we think
it reflects great credit on the order and the
spiritual feelin g of its members.
