Regular Democratic Committee,

The regularly elected democratic COM
mitteemen, those who are heart and soul
In the movement to effect change In
the state government, held meetings at
their headquarters In Topeka on the eth
and 7th. Every district in the state ex-
cept Two was represented, and each mem
Der reported as to the outlook In hIs
district. These reports were all OF the
most encouraging character, showing
that nine out Of ten Of all the democrats
Will not only vote FOR, but are working
vigorously for the success Of the Weaver
and Lewelling ticket Many Of mem
gave the result of q poll Of their coun-
tieSy and In no case did it appear that
more than dozen dissatisfied democrats
could be found In g whole county.
The committee paid its respects to ths
So-cslled "stalwarts" In an address,
which they will soon publish. A resolu-
lion condemning Railroad MItchell'S
course was knocked out with the arRu-
nent that as Mitchell Is not democrat.
md never had been one, and as he 10

NOTES..

The committees, the address, the reso.
lutions and the order Of business had ali
been prepared and printed before the
convention began.
W. F. Petition, the Dodge City kicker,
was q member Of the regular democratic
committee, but that body demanded his
resignation and got Il. Pete then went
to the bolter'S convention.
There were not over twenty delegates
who took any active part in the conven-
ton. The others were aS mum as oysters
and as unconcerned as II they were visit
ors from some other party.
The convention passed resolutions
commencing the Kansas City Times for
the course it was taking in the campaign.
This was very appropriate, for the public
comedies the Times to the republicans.
Every stranger who made his appear.
Ance about the state house was offered q
badge consisting Of 9 white ribbon bear
Ing the words "StalWsrt Democracy" and
urged to take 3 seat among the delegates.

tion Proves Dazzling Success.
The so-called democratic convention
met in representative hall, Topeka, on
October z, as per the programme made
out in the railway commissioners office
several weeks ago. It was an event the
like OF which was never seen In Kansas
before. There seemed to be determi-
nation on the part of about six or eight
disappointed Office seekers, and on the
part of as many more salarled railroad
employees to make themselves heard and
felt How well they succeeded will be
seen later.
But what a strange and unique collec-
tion Of statesmen appeared at the con-
Vention, or whatever it might be called.
(In the latter part Of the proceedings the
leaders denied that It was conventional
There was the little crowd Of selR.ap-
pointed leaders who had called the meet
Ing. On the morning Of the great event
they were alive TO the Importance Of their
position, and In the evening they were
still on deck. In the morning they were
busy fitting to and fro between the Cope
land hotel, the Santa Fe general offices,
the state house and republican head
quarters, making arrangements for the
successful carrying out of their plans
Beside them there were several other
classes OF men In the mensgerie. There
were the well dressed, sleek looking
fellows who r presented dozen or 80 of
the leading towns and cities In the state.
They were q jolly, good natured set of
fellows. When questioned as TO the OBJ
5ect Of their visit they would return a sly
wink, pull down the corner of their eve
and say: "Don't you lay awake about us.
When we see chance to take in free
excursion and save the country at the
same time, do you think weIl let It 90
by?"
Then there was the rag-tsg and bob
6aIi-tne hired men who had been in
duced to come in and help swell the
crowd. They didn't pretend to under
stand the situation, they didn't know
what all this "fuss" was about, but they

orders, and when the time came they 8

never uttered a word during the whole 9
proceeding. q
II must not be said that there were no a
lonest men In the motley gathering, for a
here were. There were men who never b
inspected but what they were here to at y

lad not been approached with any in b

publiCans this week. He is to be at
Clay Center Saturday.
John W. Thurston, the celebrated
Union Paclac attorney who presided
over the Chicago convention In 1888,
spoke in Topeka last Wednesday.
The death Of Senator Py fFer's SON was
the cause OF some OF the senator's dates
being cancelled. Frank Herald, Of TO
peka, was called upon TO take his place
at the Kansas City fair.
Reports from Abilene say that the per
secution Of Chairman Breldenthal has
changed 200 votes In Dickinson county
to the Peoples party, and that Foraker's
speech is good for 100 more. The Popu-
lists are TO have rally there on the 2sth.
After taking trip TO Europe, q. w.
Coles, Of Abilene, became Populist, so
the ADVOCATE ls informed by citizen Of
that town. After buying $40 worth Of
tableware and paying sSl duty on il he
came to the conclusion that the con-
Sumer pays the tariff tax in some cases
Ut least. Mr.. Coles made other OBSERVE
lions In Europe that helped to change
bis political notions.

as they heard their leaders say they pro
posed TO vote the straight republICau
ticket.
Finally the convention was called Il
order by Railroad Commissioner Mitchell
with 155 delegates in the hall, and the per
formance began. Itwss strange that the
following named stalWarts, each Of whom
had taken hand in calling the meeting
all rewarded themselves with an assign.
ment to an important position:
A. A. Harris, Of Ft. Scott, chairman
Chss. F. Spencer, of Topeka, secretary
J. 8. Emery, OF Lawrence, chairman com
mittse on order Of business;J. B. Crouch,
Of Hutchinson, the man with the capa-
ciOus mouth, chairman committee on
resolutions; Joseph G. Lowe, Of Wash
ington, chairman committee on address.
Each of these statesmen made speech
whenever opportunity offered, but Rail-
road Commissioner Mitchell held his
talent in reserve until the windup.
The valiant band Of stand-up patriots
dined sumptuously at the republican
tavern on the corner opposite republican
headquarters, and everything glided
smoothly until the afternoon session.
When the order of business committee
came to report It was discovered that
they had omitted to insert q number for
the nomination of ticket. This was as
the bell-weatherS had intended but those
who had come with an honest purpose
began to open their eyes and were dis
pleased. They wanted to know why
nominations" was not in the order of
business. The chair explained that It
had been decided not to make any noml-
nations, and In order to quiet the lndlg-
nation caused by this statement, Chair
nan Emery Of the committee stated that
n case they wanted to make nomlna-
ions 1t could be done under the head of
business.
The bosses then made some more
windy speeches about the way they had
'een sold out In July (not mentioning
be fact that they had since sold them
elves to the republicans, and then pro-
eeded to the selection Of q state com
littee "just to keep up the organization"
When the order Of miscellaneous bust

ton dsmpened the ardor of the delegates

the contributions soon ceased. The ex-
hibition was over.
THE NIGHT MEETING.
Thursday night the Grand opera house
was thrown open for the stalwart ratifl-
cation which had been advertised. Dele
gates were invited to seats on the stage,
and the seats in the parquet were ocCu-
pied by the most prominent republicans
in the CITY. 1t was altogether good
looking audience and the distinguished
statesmen had their speeches prepared
to suit the occasion.
Orations were made by Chairman
Rossington, Crouch (he with the capa-
cious mouth), Lowe and Harris. The
first three endeavored 10 impress the
audience with the idea that they were
still democrats, and 1t was left for Harris
to overwhelmingly cap the climax. He
did 80 with the dramatic uttersnce of |
declaration that he intended to resent
The action OF the regular convention Of
nis party "by voting the republican
'icket from top to bottom" This decla-
'ation brought out a storm Of applause
rom the republican audience, while the
delegates on the stage turned pale with
iisgust. Even those who agreed with
he speaker In sentiment did not want
ne scheme publicly exposed in this
manner. After Harris subsIded the meet
ng adjourned.

HAMPSHIRE for Finley.
RoMNEY, w. VA, August Is


To the Editor oJthe Regis,ey.
SIR:-Ir recent issue Of your paper
Democrat" writing from st. George,
spoke favorably of Hon. John B. Finley
for State Senator from this, the
Twelfth District. We desire to lift our
voice in Mr.. Finley's behalf, too. There
are a number OF men in the district who
could represent US creditably, but we
know Of no one so we'll qualified as MIR.
Finley. who is at this time available
and able TO make race.
Mr.. Finley now lives in Tucker, but
he is originally Hampshire county
boy. He is full of life and energy; is a
constant worker; has had wide range
Of business experience; has served one
term successfully in the House Of Dele
gates and is thus prominently better
qualified for the place than any other
man who will accept the Democratic
nomination. We hope that our conven-
ton which meets at MOoreteld on the
the cath inst, will nominate Mr.. Finley,
because we would then know that all
our interests would be honestly served.
In the last Legislature he was consider
ed a very efficient worker. His exper-
fence would make him more 50 now.
All the essential qualities OF Senator
are found in Mr.. Finley, and If the
Democracy Of the Twelfth district
places him on the ticket 1t will make no
mistake. 1t is not mere idle talk to say
that he-can carry the district by larger
majority than any other candidate now
in the field. he is known by all classes
OF people throughout the dristrict, and
all respect him for his pluck. energy,
honor and fairness. VOTER.

Special Correspondence Of ne REGISTER.
CAssvILLE, w. VA, August 15.-The
Republicans OF Monongahela adyer-
tised extensively that they would have
a pole raising, and that the great Dove
ner, Of Wheeling, and other prominent
speakers would deliver addresses at
Cassyille, August 18th.
The day came round, clear, bright,
but only about fifty men and boys turn
ed out 20 hear the eminent speakers.
Capt. Dovener really admitted that the
consumer pays the duty upon goods i'm
ported, but advised his hearers TO buy
American made goods, and they would
have no duty 10 pay. Suppose we do
so Captain, then we would be
compelled 20 pay bounty
20 the American manufacturer almost
equal to the duty upon foreign goods.
Aud we have got 70 foot the bill to run
the government, aud II we don't pay 1t
as duty we will have to pay it as di-
rect tax. So we would better pay the
duty upon foreign goods than to pay
bounty 20 the American manufacturer
ment. Besides, II we buy only Ameri-
can manufactured goods then we would
cease 10 exchange with Europe, and
what would we do with our surplus,
products of the farm, such as wheat,
corn, oats, cattle, hogs, etc. Don't you
see, Captain, that il would reduce the
price OF our products down to mere
nothing, and we would (the farmers) be-
come bankrupt? Oh, no, Captain, we
are a little too smart 20 take such advice.
Barton Jones, OF Morgantown, was an
other of their speakers. Bart said:
THE Democrats are inquiring who the
Republican candidate for Governor
Davis-iS." He said the first know Of
MacCorkle, the Democratic candidate
for Governor, and who Is big
raw IriShman weighing $50 pounds,
stabbed a small American known as u.
y Marshall White at Charleston" Now
Bart please tell rs what he stabbed him
with, was it corn cutter, a cheese
knife or a pegging aul. Now Bart did
he stab him at all? Did you not dream
it, Frank Cox who made speech here
four years ago, told Us that the for
eigner paid the duty. Sometime after
a prominent Democrat asked Frank If
he really told Us so, Frank said he did.
The Democrat said Frank you know
that is not so. Frank replied yes, but l
made them believe it. Republicans Of
MonOngalia do you agree with Mr.. Cox
that you believe every absurd and false
statement that he and other Republican
speakers make. Abraeam Lincoln said
you can deceive all people for time.
A few all the time, but you can't de-
ceive a majority Of them all the time"
Thank God the people are getting their
eyes open.
