The Iola register. [volume] (Iola, Allen County, Kansas) 1875-1902, 1893-04-28

Col. III. l.. Moore, who wants to be
congressman, was here Monday and
Tuesday and was much besought by
those who want to be postmaster. He
called on the REGISTER, of course,
and we promised to look after his in.
terests down here, in return for which
he promised to endorse our applica-
tion forthe postoffice. He also promised
to endorse for the other offices in the
county anybody that we would re-
commend. From which it will be seen
that Col. Moore is certainly a most
promising man. He thinks the stall
warts are not in it, but he is free to
confess that the offices are not coming
to Kansas in the shoals that he would
like to see. He thinks-that is he
says he thinks-that he will win his
contest against Funston. But he isn't
betting any money on it. He expects
to be candidate for congress next
year, but he has not made up his mind
yet whether he will run as Demo-
crat or POpulist-or both. When
the Colonel was boy he belonged to
the party that would get the squirrel
and he has not got over it yet.
The Odd Fellows anniversary ban
quet and social on Wednesday after
noon and evening, was pronounced
success. Representatives were here
from the Lodges at NeoshO Falls,
Yates Center and Chanute, besides a
number of invited guests from the
city. The banquet, under the skill
full management of the Daughters of
Rebekah, was elaborate and complete
in every detail, -One of the most per-
feet every served in lola. After the
banquet the Lodges and their guests
repaired to the Opera House where
they were entertained by a splendid
address by Major Foust, a most anus
ing recitation by Miss Jennie KelsO,
music. Afterwards there was dane
ing and a good social time which
was much enjoyed. The occasion was
success from beginning, to end and we
hope that the Odd Fellows will have
another birthday sometime.
Judge J. S. Emery, of Lawrence,
was in town Tuesday and spent
good share of his time in the REGIS
TER Office. Judge Emery is a prohi-
bition, high tariff, sound money
Democrat! A political curiosity that
deserves to be embalmed. He eft"
with John Brown and Jim Lane in
the ancient days, and he has had his
say-a highly original say-abOut
everything that has been done in
Kansas since. He is down on the
Populists, of course, and will see to it
that there is a straight Democratic
ticket in the field next year if he has
to be a candidate for all the offices
himself. He went down to see our
stone quarry and he thinks there is a
fortune there for somebody.
/E'The Fair is colossal, stupendous,
immense writes A. c. Scott, from
Chicago. sit far surpasses my wild
est conception and is undoubtedly
without any kind of hyperbola, the
biggest show on earth. Every
American citizen, at least, ought to
see it. But it will be far from COM

Persons who are subject to attacks
of bilious collie can almost invariably
tell when to expect an attack. If
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Di-
arrhea Remedy is taken as soon as
these symptoms appear, they can
ward off the disease. Such persons
should always keep the Remedy at
hand, ready for immediate use when
needed. Two or three doses of it at
the right time will save them much
suffering. For sale by Evans Bros.
