HOW LrAvEN WORTH STANDS

f. w. Willard, who represented one of
the legislative districts of Leavenworth
county in the last house, was at the Carey
yesterday and to a representative Of the
EAGLE expressed himself rs much pleased
with with the action of the late Republ
lcan convention OF Leavenworth
county I'VE will! elect without Il
doubt" said Mr.. Willard, ''Lucien
Baker as state senator and two
members of the house. In fact / believe
that Mr.. Baker will carry the county by
six hundred majority. He is the strongest
man politically in our county and in ad-
dtion to a solid Republican vote, he will
| receive Il large number of Democratic bal
lots. 1t is the first time in sixteen years
that the Republicans of my county have
been united and there is every indication
that thu entire ticket viii be elected. We
have club composed Of young men 200
strong and in addition every ward in the
city has local club that will vote as
unit He further said that
dissensions had taken place in the Demo
cratic ranks that it would be impossible to
heal; that they were as badly divided as
the Republicans ever were. and that the
ticket the latter had nominated was an
omen of success: that it represented no
faction, but was the voice of every Repub
lican of the county, no matter what their
past belief or feelings may have been.
When asked about the congressional
fight, which is three-cornered one, he
said that he thought Mr.. Broderick, the
Republican candidate. would be elected.
He also spoke very highly of Mr.. Carroll,
the Democratic candidate, and said if the
fight was between the two gentlemen
named, it would keep the Republicans
hustling to elect their man. But with a
Populist candidate in the field it would
initiate against the Democrats and Teo-
pies party's candidate, and made the Re-
publicans stick closer together and work
all the harder.
In conclusion he said: I've want to
show the state that Leavenwoi n Repub-
licans do get tos ether once in Il while, and
when they do they put the county in the
Republican column. where it properly be-
longs"

hought of the possibility Of beiny r

thought of the possibility of being re.
duced to their condition in Case of the
triumph and supremacy of the free trade
idea advocated by Cleveland and Endorsed
by England. He aeterred to the sheep
raising industroy of Kansas and how it
had been practically killed by the reduc-
tion of tariff on wool in 1858. He dwelt
on the effect Of protection on eggs and
made strong'pIea for the American hen
He said that under protection several
millions of eggs had been debarred from
the American market. resulting in an ad-
vance in the price OF eggs to a price never
eGualled before under similar circum-
stances. He also referred to sugar and ad-
vanced some new and enlightiug ideas on
the eff ect of free taade on that commodity
At this point he took up piece of sin
plate about ten inches square and
beat it with his fingers tambourine
fashion at which the audi ence burst forth
in thunnering peal OF applause which
lasted severa. minutes He then went into
the tin question and showed the wonderful
strides the industry has made since the
Mckinley protective law went into effect.
The most pathetic part of his entire
speech was his reference to the condition
of Ireland under the enforced free trade of
England. He described the poverty of the
people in language that melted tears, and
described with the ienderesr and most
sympathetic feelings the miseries of that
unhappy country. But what has been
Ireland's loss. )" said the speaker, .:'has beea
Americas gain. These enterprising peo-
pie, being forced away from tteir
own land by the cruel and tyranical laws
of England bent their steps to our country
and to them we are indebted for the big
gest factories we possess referring to the
McCullys and the other lannon's Irish
names which adorn the roll of Americas
greatest manufacturers. Mr.. Filley, it
appears, made a trip through Ireland
for the Identical purpose of ascertaining
the condition of the country under free
trade and he speaks "by the card" Not
from hear say but from his own
knowledge He then dwelt on the
montary question and wound up with
strong appeal to stand up for Kansas, the
old flag (Which be waved) and that grand
old party under whose wise laws America
has become the greatest nation under the
circuit of the snn.
1t was great speech and one that made
lots of votes for the Republican party.
