ELLIS.
After the Hays City meeting We
went back to Ellis, at which place,
owing to the governors severe cold, o.
L. Smith made the principal speech to q
reasonably well filed opera house. Quite
q thunder storm came up just at night
which kept q great many away. The
governor only talked about fifteen min
utes and was loudly spplauded by the
labOring men present. This ID q rail-
road town. One good result oe these
two meetings in Ellis county Ia that lS8
more people will DO ADVOCATE readers
in the county.

Another town in Kansas that has not
q house large enough to hold the people
who would like to hear the governor
speak. Such was the case here whom
the governor spoke at 1:S0 p. m. The
people are wide awake TO their interest,
and you could hear the people remark
often on the street as I did today: 81
have cast my last ballot for the 6. o. p.,
or the d. o. p and will now stand by the

with flowers aud flags, and over the
stage was q floral motto, "Wslcoms to
our governor. Just as the governor was
introduced, two little girls dressed In
white, Misses Eulsh Gray and Edna
Rockefeller, stepped forward and pre-
sented him with two handsome boqusts.
Almost as large an audience crested
our speakers in the evening 40 during
the day, and the evening meeting was
not called or advertised until that very
day. Mr.. Atherton, republican CRndi-

the governor and friends very nicely In"

evening Governor LeWelling addressed
400 people here and his speech was well
received.
SCOTT CITY,
Governor Lswelling lectured in the
Christian church at Scott City, August
10, to thoroughly packed house. The
audience embraced the best and most
intelligent class Of people, and paid the
closest attention to the distinguished
speaker. His subject was christian
Socialism" and he handled it well, pre-
senting many interesting phases which
gave it new life and interest. The
church was properly decorated with
flowers, and handsome boquet worn
by the governor was presented to him by
the ladies.
LEoTI
Lsoti, the county seat Of Wichita
county, is situated at safe distance
from Denver and Kansas City not to
materially injure the growth Of either
city, but politically the citizens Of this
county will surely retsrd the growth Of
the republican party in Kansas, because
it has the reading, thinking men to do
it with. Her citizens will read and
study economic questions, and whenever
you get an intelligent man to do that,
you mighty soon get him away from the
g. o. p, and then, too, the county has
about half dozen of the hardest Popu-
list workers in the state.

SpOiIs . Good Story.

rThs following letter from Case BHOdsE-
i0&, republican member OF congress rom
The First district, knocks the wind all out
Of another fine republican story. Kansas
republican papers have been telling how
Curtis and BPoderiOk stood up in the house
and worked for the amendment to include
Kansas and Nebraska in the list OF gtatG8
10 which "deserb" lands were donated un-
der certain conditions for irrigation puR-
poses. Mr.. BPOderiok here states thas hO
was not present Rt all when the discussion
took place. They have told US chat BPetz'g
argument defeated the amendment, and
that Bretz obtained the figures he used In
that argument from Jerry Simpson. Mr..
BPOderiOk spoils this story. He also OK
presses the opinion that the amendment
would have done no good had 10 been
adopted, and plants himself sQuaPely upo1
the broad POpulisS doctrine that irrigation,
20 bO effectual, must be undertaken and
managed by the general government. The
following is his letteP.-ED.
HoUsE OF REPRESENTATIVES,,
WASHINGTON, D. G.,
August %, 1894.
Hon. ", H. Biddle Topeka Kansas:
Ny DEAR SIR:-YOur esteemed favor,
with monthly report OF trsssurSr's Office,
received. Am very thankful for the
same.
On the day Of the discussion Of which
you write was busy with some COM
mittee matters and had no sort OF notice
that the question was coming up. Lt
often 30 happens here that important
questions axe sprung upon the house
without any previous intimstion. Az
you understand il 10 impossible TO have
all kinds of data and proof at hand. Do
not think, however, that Mr.. BrStz's AE
gumsnt defeated the amendment TO
place Kansas and Nebraska In the List Of
states allowed to try this experiment,
but the committee on public lsndS. Mr..
McRGe, whose advice the house viii
generally follow on questions Of this
kind, defeated the proposition. But my
opinion Ia our state has not been in-
jurod. The only way irrigation can bS
made practicable is by system Of ressr-
voirs along the eastern foothills to the
Rockies, and this should bs done and
controlled by the general government,
otherwise Color ado, Wyoming and the
Dakota would receive sll the advantage
and Kansas and Nebraska would be left
in the "dry." I voted to include Kansas
and Nebraska, not because thought
tkis Of itself would be Of any substantial
benefit, bat because l thought 1t might
lead to something which would help to
solve this water question.
Again thanking you for your courtesy,
I am very truly yours,

SHARON SPRINGS.
Here we met o. L. Smith, Of Phillips
county, who is looking after the work in
the Sixth district, and it is being we'll
looked after, too. This little town is
county seat Of Wallace county, and con-
tsins whole host Of live, active Popu-
lists. There was not building in all
the town to near hold the crowd. 1t is
just surprising how the people come out
to the meetings. We are told that our
meetings are all from two TO three times
as large as the republican. Among the
many good things that the governor
talks about is irrigation, and not the
kind that Hale talks about, either. Mr..
LewellinV will write the next message
to the legislature, not because he is
going to be elected land he will be) but
it 80 happens that the next legislature
will convene before his term Of office
expires and in that message he will rec.
ommend an appropriation to establish
experimental irrigation stations in
Western Kansas, which every KRnsaR
knows will be done.
wINoNA.
OF all the towns We have visited we
must say this one has set Of the incest
business men we have met, When the
governor arrived, about 4 o'clock p. M,
committee Of the citizens, composed
Of all political faith, welcomed him and
his party and escorted them to the hotel.
The chairman OF the reception COM
mittee, H. P. Smith, welcomed him by
saying, Governor, we, the citizens Of
Winons, welcome you as the governor Of
Kanses, Of which we are 80 proud. We
recognize you as the governor OF whole
people and not Of party"
r. r. Smith, proprietor Of the WinonR
hotel, made happy bit when he seated
the governor at the table with P. r,
Mitten, editor Of the Winons Clipper
(republioan), at his right, and Frank
Hickman, democrat, at his left. Sur
rounding the table were other stsunch
republicans like Captain Mcknight, and
our true Populist, II. P. Smith. Once
again say we are proud Of our recep-
tion at Winons-like sll other Of our
meetings.
When we reached the city hall we
found 1t profusely decorated with
flowers and wild grasses, sll the work
being done by the ladies. Here, too, the
republicans accompanied the governor
on the rostrum and listened rs Bttentively
to his able arguments as any Populist
in the house. When we left WiuOna, we
all felt that we had made more personal
friends, ii not political, than at any
point in the state.
OAKLEY.
Here about 800 people greeted the
governor. One could hardly believe
that so many people could be found in
this sparsely settled country, but the
enthusiasm OF the people is unboundsd.
While we have never carried Logan
county our workers here assured US that
We would increase our vote in that
county. From Oakley we went on to
Grainfeld, Cove county, where the gov
ernor spoke the same evening to house
that was crowded to its very fullest ca.
pacity. At the close OF the meeting the
central committee held q meeting.
