Rev. E. Leonardson, state organizer

urday and Sunday. He made speech
Saturday afternoon on the street corn

courthouse. He had a good audience
at night, the room being well filled, but
Hail Columbia" from start to finish,
and occasionally made a side-wipe at
the peoples party. According to his
Interpretation of the prohibition de-
mandS there are only two things de-
manded by his party which the peoples
peple's are not also demanding:

peoples party ia Kansas who are in
favor OF both demands than are opposed

suffrage plank put in the national plat
form, and we believe female suffrage
would Go more to enforce the prohibit
tory law than any other one thing. The
women would vote against men who
were favorable TO the traffic, and thus
till our Offices with men vic would Ell
force the law. Mr.. LeOnardSon said
