4 CONVICT SENATOR.
John H Reynolds, u kansas, in Columbus
Yesterday.


} ohm III. Reynolds, Of Kansas, ia Columbus
Yesterday.
Jno. H. Reynolds, of Kansas, the own
er of the Atchison (Kan.) Daily Times,
was in Columbus on Monday and deliv-
cred two lectures from wagon stand
ing near the bell tower.
Speaking of his visit, the Enquirer-Sun
says "He perhaps has had the most
unique experience Of any man in the
| United States While serving term as
a convict in the penitentiary he made
race for state senator of the Atchison
district and received twice as many votes
as his competitor. He was sent up in
1888 for the charge of using the United
States mails for fraudulent purposes. He
claims that it happened through the in
fluence of political ring in that county
which he had fought very bitterly
through,the columns of the newspaper,
and finally managed to defeat in a local
contest. By that means he says he be-
came the object of their hatred and when
it was made public that he would run
for the senate, they determined to de-
| feat him by disgracing him. According
ly the charge of using the mails for
| fraudulent purposes was hatched up
against him, and as the United States
district judge was member Of this al
| legged ring he stood no chance whatever,
and was sent to the coal mines for eight
cen months.
| In the course of his remarks he de-
tailed the terrible sufferings of convict's
| life and told his experience along with
| it. He was extremely bitter in denun-
citation of the way in which convicts are
treated, declaring that they haven't as
many rights as so many dogs.
| He made his announcement as a can
didate by slipping a note to friend who
had called to see him in prison, and his
paper was filled with it. The penten-
tiary warden became very angry because
| he had managed to send this note to the
outside and wouldn't allow him any
communication whatever with the out
S: de world, and he did not hear that he
had received the f1attering majority and
been elected until some time afterwards.
Of coursehe was disfranchised and could
not hold office, but he considered it a
vindication.
He served out sixteen of the eighteen
months of his sentence, and was par
doned because of good behavior.
He appeared on the streets yesterday
afternoon in a striped convict's coat,
and went up and down Broad street
blowing a cornet and announcing that he
would speak. OF course he gets some
thing out of all this, for he is selling book
that he wrote in spare moments while
in prison. A large crowd gathered to hear
him, attracted by the novelty of his APP
pearance with a beaver hat and con-
vict's stripes, as well as by the announce
ment that he was elected to the senate
while in the penitentiary.
