HONORED At HOME.

er Of Moral Social and
Political Reform, Addresses
The People Of Wellington.
Wednesday evening before sunset,
people began to pour into the opera
house, coming early to secure seats
to hear Rev. J. d. Botkin expound
the principles for which he has sacri-
feed popularity and a coed salary.
He has been denounced, sneered at,
lied about, misunderstood. feared,
ridiculed, called a demagOgue, an Of
tice-hunter. But his friends believe
him to be at least a man of honest
convictions, and they ask men to con-
slider his words fairly, and reason to-
gether as men and women, brothers
and sisters. fellow cOuntrYmen, whose
will helps to decide the political des-
tiny of great nation. Some thoughts
require figures and apply to the head
but Others come directly from the
heart, and can be understood only in
the heart capable of feeling them.
Mr.. BOtkin pleads the cause of the
poor and oppressed of our land. He
is not an excuse maker nor a hero
worshipper. He stands for the great
principle of justice and equal rights
to all Gods children.
Caman'S military band was engaged
for the occasion, and it is needless to
say that they acquitted themselves
grandly.
The stage was elegantly draped
with flags, and portraits Of Abraham
Lincoln and Thomas Jefferson
adorned the walls, suggesting that
"POpuliSm is Abraham Lincoln re-
publicanism and Thomas Jefferson
democracy"
Portraits Of Governor Lewelling
and Our Jerry" Simpson also Occu-
pied prominent positions on opposite
sides of the stage.
Mr.. BOtkin touched considerably
upon local affairs, cOnfesSing that he
had lately been assOciating with
Judge Naugle, and asking permission
to go to Topeka this week. He took
occasion to explain why Mr.. Campbell,
of the Monitor Press and Standard,
really don't have time to hunt UT
the truth-he is riding two political
horses going opposite directions, and
that keeps him busy" He went
boldly into the main issues of the
day, and held the audience in rapt at.
tentiOn for two hours. The opera
house was packed, the seats, aisles
corners, doors and windows were
crowded with people.
After the close of the address, q
cOlOred trio composed of Will Curd
Sherman Teal and Grant Bass, rem
dered some touching old plantation
melodies, which were greatly appre,
ciated. 1t was intended to have q
quartet, but there was some misun
Outstanding about its organization.
A collection was taken which wa.
turned over to Mr.. BOtkin, 1898
The expenses of hiring the opera
house and securing the band were
raised by the Peoples Progressive
club, taking subscriptions before thu
meeting.
The VOICE will not attempt to Civ,
a synopsis of his speech this week. but
will publish it in full next issue.

trlct court yesterday and were charged
by Judge John w. Willis. Theodore L..
Schumacher was appointed foreman by
the court. In addition to calling atten-
ton to matters as required by the stat
utes, Judge Willis informed the grand
Jurors that in performing their duties of
formulating accusations against persons
suspected OF committing crime i'll the
county, they, as part of the judicial
branch of the state government. are to
make diligent inquiry into all public
OtfenSeS. Liberal audience should be
given to all citizens where POSSIBLE,
whether they appear by the consent and
permission of the county attorney or
nut. In examining the condition of the
various institutions in the county the
institutions in body and not by ap-
pointing committees as has been the
custom in the past. The charge OF the
court embraced as a special feature the
calling of, attention to the part of the
penal code that refers TO the morals of
children and the protection Of such
from dangerous employment. The Sec
lions were read, and are as follows:
ANY person who wilfully causes or
permits the minors life to be endan-
gered, or its health to be injured, or Its
morals to become depraved, or willfulIy
causes or permits the minor to be placed
i'll such situation, or to engage in such
an occupation that its life is endan-
gered. or its health is likely to be in
jured, or its morals likely to be i'm
paired, is guilty of misdemeanor."
The jurors were then charged TO espe-
cially inquire into offenses against child
abor, where children under sixteen
years of age are kept at work before z
o'clock in the morning or after O'clock
IL the evening. The law relative to
dangerous machinery and the protection
of employees by screens was also specially
mentioned.

grand jurors repaired to their room and
put i'll the remainder Of the day in work.
The first case taken up was the homi-
eide of the Italian, Ferrari, who was
shot few weeks ago OH the upper flats

of witnesses were in waiting in the ante
room during the Investigation of this
case.

marked: II told them that revolver
was loaded" The grand jury room
door was opened from the outside, and
County Attorney Butler was seen
standing with smoking revolver in his
hand, looking rather startled. He
waved his hand to Mr.. Donnelly to
close the door. 1t was learned
that-the county attorney was exhibiting
the revolver with which Fer.
rari was shot when it was discharged
accidentally. Fortunately no Que was
in front of the gun, and no hurt re-
suited otller than to Startle the grand
jurors and bring most OF them to their
feet. @ -s..-v
