THE Alliance meeting held here
Tuesday was supposed to be a secret
meeting, but when the question of
supporting Banker Moore for Con-
gress came up the topic proved so
exciting that some of the speakers
lifted their voices until it was no trick
at all to hear them down on the street.
One of the speakers who was thus
overheard was very cmpbati-
cally opposing Mr. Moore. What he
wanted to know was how the Peoples
party, which made the repeal of the
National banking law one of its chief
demands, could support a National
banker with the expectation that he
would vote to repeal the law which
would destroy his business. He had
the documents, he said, to
show that Col. Moore was vice
president of a National bank at Law
renee and he also had the documents
TO show that lie had SD, 900 loaned out
at two per cent interest. He had at
tended the convention at Garnet on
purpose to defeat the endorsement of
Moore and he had succeeded, with
the help Of 81 other men, after a hard
fight. He didn't propose now TO have
ali that work overthrOwn and to be
sold out by seven men. This was the
gist of his speech, as reported to us
by che vino heard it. and from the
tone of it there seems little doubt that
whether or not the speaker supports
MT.Funston, he certainly will notSup-
port Mr.. Moore Aud from all we can
hear the Peoples party men in this
county will back him up in it. They
say that the issue was made Sqnarely
in the Garnett convention and the
proposition to endorse Moore was de-
feated. And now to have small
committee deliberately set aside the
work Of that convention is an attempt
at boss rule that they do not propose
to sanction by their votes. a few of
them may not vote at all, but the most
of them will vote squarely for Mr..
Funston whom they are compelled
to recognize as an honest and able re-
preventative and whom they know TO
be farmer like themselves. We be-
lieve Mr.. Funston majority in Allen
county will be greater than it ever
was before

al of Mrs. DAVIS father, Mr.. Baxley,
week before last. Mr.. Baxley made

was born in New York in 1920; went
from there to Pennsylvania, from there
to Nebraska. back again to Pennsyl-
vania, then again to Nebraska, thence
to Kansas in 1879, buying the Luther
Sape farm, where he has resided ever
since. His life has been one of hard
toll up to within a few years ago,
since when he has been in failing
health. He died of Inflammation of
the bowels; he was sick only about a
week. He leaves a wife and several
children to mourn him. His death
seems almost a personal loss to us.
He was a true friend, man of kind
heart and generous impulses,
staunch and consistent Republican
and a good citizen. No more shall we
see his tall form and feel the warm
clasp of his hand -. Ben Davis, who

II appears that the REGISTER was
mistaken in the statement that Mr..
Cash, the Peoples nominee for Pro-
bate Judge, was "hauled OFF, the
ticket to make place for the Democrat
ic nominee. The statement was made
upon what we deemed good authority,
but since it is shown TO be bad author
ity we cheerfully withdraw it, as we
do not wish to treat any man or any
party unfairly. The fact that Mr..
Cash withdrew Voluntarily and not
upon demand of the Democrats does
not change the situation at all. 1t
only shows that the Democrats did
not have as much nerve as wethOught
they had.

Orial remarks about the sell out, OF
which the following are samples:
1t has been asserted and never de-
MED that Col. Moore said he would
spend $4,000 to gain a seat in Con-
