considering that the spring trade has not

The chairman and "Farmer" Smith
at the Republican ratification meeting on
Thursday evening In this city, made
quite a display of the ensanguined un-
der garment, but somehow It failed to
call forth the expected response from the
audience.
There was the least enthusiasm at
this meeting that we have witnessed at
any political gathering Of any party for a
long time. Even the speakers were un-
able to enthuse, and the response from
the audience was very feeble. Some
thing was evidently wrong with the
crowd.
A good crowd assembled at the
meeting In the early part Of the evening,
but its staying qualities were not up to
the regulation standard. Even before
che close Of Anthony's address people
began leaving in squads, and the squads
were not small, either.
Mr.. Burton during his speech ex-
pressed q fervent wish that he could
have that audience out in the Fifth dis
trict. He will undoubtedly have the
same longing for an naudlence in the Fifth
district many times during the campaign.
His remark was an unintentionsl con-
Ression Of the condition of his party out
there where he Is looking for votes.
When someone called for Col. Tom
linson the chairman said 1t was time to
90 home, and the audience agreed with
him and went.

BLOCKS OF TWENTY WILL GO.
The executive committee did not Gd-
journ until late, and discussed at length
the various plans submitted for organiza-
tlon. Governor Anthony's suggestion to
divide the state into blocks of twenty was
given careful consideration, and in ac-
coEdance with his idea, the sub-commit-
too of three was appointed to see that
the work was carried out. This commit
tee will consist Of E. B. Whaley, of To
peka, Frank L. Brown, of Gsrnett, and
DIR. Blddle, Of Emporia. If there are any
intensely practical politicians in Kansas,
the gentlemen who have been given the
shaping of these blocks are they. Whsley

had given evidences of rare cunning in

mittee will probably have Its headquar-

THE MONsTER FRAUD OF THE AGE.

AA MO NANAAbNOA NVAANy OpA ~AO AuS0 Va
Gods salth was there ever organized
among men a combination 80 destructive
to legitimate journalism, 30 prejudlclal to
transmission of legitimate information,
so capable Of moulding public sentiment
In the wrong directio nand imposing In
calculable misfortunes upon the masses,
as that combination known on this CONT
nent as the Associated Press.
With q complete monopoly Of all the
news of the country, an unlimited
power to suppress or distort facts; with
every inducement to psnder to and be-
come the tools of political conspirltOrS
and Capitalistic rogues; armed with an
arbitrary power to crush out every
species of competition; bankrupt such
newspapers as are at war with its meth
odS, and supplant legitimate journalism
by the establishment of q phalanx Of
dictatOrial personal organs, under spoils
seeking management; It must be regard
ed by all thinking persons as capable of
becoming the most dangerous and re-
lentless foe to civilization that has ever
existed among mankind.
A robber who should buy up the pota-
toes and bread in community, stand of
all legitimate competition with club,
and substitute saw dust for diet, would
be killed by the infuriated populaCe
without delay; but corner on news, a
stab at mental liberty, placing q bludgeOn
in the hands of an unscrupulous aristoc-
racy, with which to maui the intelligence
out Of labor; placing the reading public
at the mercy of soulless political leaders
seem by common sensent TO be privi-
leges conferred upon few psmpered
political pets, which are more extysor-
dlnary and more monStrOus than any
thing In the worlds history.
Let Wall street Shylock sneeze,
Cleveland go a fishing, Sullivan get
drunk, or Jay Gould's bull pup have q
fit, when forthwith, to the exclusion Of
everything which interests humanity,
this all important news is flashed across
this continent at any cost, and published
in all the papers under Its thumb as
literature for the home and mental food
for the rising generation; but triaes Ike
railroad wrecks, where humanity is
crushed to death by carloads to appease
the greed of railroad kings, robbiDg
Credit Mobilier rings, conspiracles to
wipe out our national money and fund
the debt into gold bearing bonds for toll
and grief to liquldsts; demonstration Of
silver, that national banks may grow fat
from the sweat Of lRbor,-these may be
suppressed with safety.
Not content to furnish It's news with
out discrimination, and at the same price
to all alike, it creates pools and monopo-
lies among the favored flunkles In each
of our large cities, and for enormous
prices paid, confers upon comparatively
small number Of papers the privilege Of
these options and favors, from which all
others are precluded.
Persons armed with these indulgencies
are thus placed beyond competition, and
licensed under the name of political or
party journals, to conduct sheets 20 mo-
torlously undeserving of patronage as to
require lottery schemes, gift enterprises,
and the donation of dowdy chromoS to

REPUBLICAN FOXES ALERT.


Control.
Special correspondence to the Kansas City Star.
Topeka, Kan, July 15.-The RepubIi-
can candidates met their central commit
tee yesterday afternoon and organized for
che campaign. Jim Simpson, Of Nc
Pherson county, was elected chairman,
and Frank L. Brown, of Garnett, Secre-
tary. The campaign decided upon was
Of the Indiana variety, with blocks Of
twenty instead Of blocks Of Ave for voting
squads.
After the candidates had met In the
Copeland parlors and decided upon the
chairman and secretary they made their
report TO the committee, and then some
one called for suggestions from the can
didates. Ex-Governor Anthony, the
nominee for congressman at large, re-
sponded to the invitation. He said he
regretted that outsiders had made their
way into the committee rooms, for this
might be the only opportunity he could
have Of speaking to the entire committee.
However, there were some things which
might as we'll be recognized. The Re-
publlcans had hard fight on their bands
and should organize TO meet it.
AFTER THE INDIANA FASHION.
There was one thing he wanted TO
suggest, Mr.. Anthony said, and that was
che organization Of the state In voting
squads or "blocks of five, " II the commit
too pleased. There had been lots Of nom
sense written about this sort of cam
palgn organization. It was the only
Sensible thing to do, but he would sug-
gest squads Of twenty. II would mot be
necessary to speak Of them az "blocEs Of
twenty" The Idea was TO have one Re-
publican In each voting squad Of twenty
who would be held responsible for the
manner in which all voted, and who
would see that they came out to the polls.
This work should be placed in the hands
OF a subcommittee Of three selected
from an executive committee Of nine, and
should have the best politicians in the
party.
In addition to this Idea Governor An
thOny had another. II was to have
state convention Of Republican editors
under the control Of the central commit
tee, and an organization perfected by
which one committee could draft short
editorials Of one stick or perhaps two,
and have them appear each week, the
central committee paying for the compo-
sitlon and such other compensation aS
might be agreed upon. The haphSzzard
way in which the Republican papers had
been conducting the canvass should be
stopped, and they should be shown that
It was not smart to make filings at such
Republican measures as the Mckinley
bill.
The convention Of editors provided for
viii be selected by senatorial districts,
and one editor viii represent each dis
trict.
SIMPSON WILL RUN THINGS.
There was nothing left for the central
committee to do In the selection Of
officers. The candidates took the whole
matter in charge. Lynch, candidate for
treasurer, Bruce, the candidate for audi
tor, and Davis, the candidate for school
superintendent, wanted DR.. Blddle, Of
Emporla, but five candidates stood by
Simpson, and he was reported as the
nnRnimona nholcA. There were several

Smith read these lines dozen times.
So it was back in 1879, was it, that New
Hampden's fairest daughter made him
feel that he had largely overdrawn his
account of happiness with the world?
Well, he had rather lost sight of her
since then. He knew she had been in

HAD HIS NERVE WITH HIM.
They Had Everything Apparently All Cut
and Dried.

"AL impecunious acquaintance Of
mine has firmly implanted himself in
the affections of his father-in-law by
pure nerve" remarked Judge Blume to
a party of friends. He met the object
of his affections at a summer resort in
Wisconsin and they fell in love. She
was the daughter of a State street bus
mess man who takes SIX figures to count
his fortune. The old man did not seem
to have very good opinion of the
young man, who was a clerk in dry
goods store. But he permitted him to
bask in the sunshine of his daughters
smiles without great opposition. One
day as the old gentleman was sitting in
his study the young man hesitatingly
requested an audience.
We'll, well, what is it?' he gruff1y
asked, lowering his paper and glaHcing
severely at the bashful young man.
"I-please, sir-I want to marry
your daughter
"'You--what have you got to support
her with? How can you keep her in
the luxury to which she has been accus-
toned? You have nothing
"'Well-we have been talking it
over, sir, and we think that if you will
give us that house on - street, together
with a couple of stores, we can live
very nicely on the interest. We
thought-we thought that perhaps
perhaps you might give me junior
partnership in the store
THE old gentleman gasped for
breath, turned red in the face, and then
burst into an immoderate fit of laugh
ter. The young man was badly scared
but he held his ground.
"Oh, such nerver howled the old gen
tleman, as he rolled in his chair with
laughter. "Why don't you ask for the
whole store and be done with it? Well
