A K1owA COUNTY EPISODE

Mr.. G. Z. Fullington came up from
kiowa county the past week and he tells
of an interesting little episode which &C.
Cured in that section of the state a few
days ago. 1t seems that the Alliance down
there look at joint discussions with the
same terror that the calamityites do here,
and although they are frequently chal-
lenged by Republicans to discuss the is
sues Of the campaign fairly and honestly
before the people, it is very difficult
matter to find an Alliance man who has
the temerity to stand up against the
truth.
J r. Hare is the Alliance candidate for
representative in that county, and j. w.
Davis is his Republican opponent. the
Alliance candidate had several
times been asked to discuss the
issues with Mr.. Davis, but for
some reason best know to himself had not
responded. Last week on Monday Mr..
be gone q week. This had become gener-
ally known, so on Monday afternoon, at
about train time, the Alliance people very
bravely issued challenge to the Hon.
Davis to a series of joint discussions to last
all week. The calamity people were OF
course confident that Mr.. Davis could not
accept on account of his trip, but their
chagrin can be imagined when MIR. Davis
gave up his proposed trip and accepted
them before they could say Jack Robinson.
The meeting opened that night, and al
though Mr.. Davis had only few hours in
which to prepare himself, he SO completely
walloped his wailing opponet that it was a
pity. The discussions were declared off by
the Peoples party managers after the first
few meetings which proved so disastrous
to their man.

CLOTHES LINES ACROSS ALLEYS.

1t is against the law to string a clothes
line across any street or alley. and yet this
is frequently done. 1t came near causing
a death yesterday morning, and in that
case the guilty party would have been
made to suffer. Mr.. l. c. hickman WAS
driving through an alley with a heavily
laden wagon. His little boy, Parm. about
years old. was stealing ride by hanging
on to the rear of the wagon. While going
through the alley the wagon suddenly
came in contact with an almost invisible
clothes line, which caught one of the
heavy boxes. throwing it backward to the
ground. The box fell on the little bog.
The little fellow was not seriously hurt.

The Republican meeting on Monday
night in the Garfield hall should be
made the biggest political meeting held
in Wichita this year The Hon. Joe W.
Ady of Newton and Hon. Ed Sample of
Medicine Lodge will be the speakers. Mr.
Ady, as is well known, has worked with
the people of Wichita on the railroad-rate
question, and there is no other man in the
state who is better posted on this all-im-
portant q uestion of rates than is Mr.. Ady.
Mr.. Ady will devote large portion of his
speech to the railroad question. He is a
brilliant speaker and has few equals in the
power of eloquence. Mr.. Sample. who
will occupy part of the evening is a first
class speaker, and be can pour hot-shot
into the enemy faster than most any man
in the country. There will be grand
torchlight procession in the evening, and
all loyal Republicans should turn out in
this parade. Everyone is cordially invited
to Garfield hall to hear the issues discussed
from our own standpoint. Speaking will
begin at o'clock.

THE BURKES.

The Edmund Burke society held a very
Interesting session at the Garfield on last
Monday evening. The new officers having
been instslled the president, Mr.. Will
Ayers, was introduced and in neat
speech thanked the society for the honor
conferred upon him. reviewed the work of
the past and outlined his policy for the
present term, prophesying even better
work than heretofore
Professor Griffin delighted the audience
with a recitation, THE lady of Seville"
The banjo solo by Miss Alice Norton was
executed in most artistic manner and
elicited much applause.
he paper by Dale Snively on the timely
subject 1.-The Man for the Moment" was
entertaining and we'll read. He called at
tention to the fact that at every great
crisis in history whenever civil or relig-
ious liberty WAS in jeopardy. and a great
leader was needed, that man has appeared.
L. w. Butcher wrote of The Relation
of the Criminal to Society" and handled
the subject in his usual able manner. He
took the position that Instead of being
confirmed in crime by harsh treatment
the better nature of the criminal should
be appealed to. He should be surrounded
by influences whose tendency is TO elevate
rather than degrade.
The quartette then sang the beautiful
lullaby song, by 10 Land" accompanying
the words with appropriate movements of
the body.
The debate on the Campbell maximum
freight rate bill bristled with facts and
arguments; the speakers, Messrs. Ayers
aud Blake, acquittiug themselves very
creditabiy.
Quite number of visitors from the
East Side were in attendance. The way
into the Burke hall is not up a winding

appreciate this as well As the excellence
