The Wichita Eagle is wonderfully
exercised just now en- account Of 'the
recent attack Of leading Populists
against the character Of Mrs Lease" {"
We desire to remind the Eagle that
the only leading Populist that has
made any "attack against the char
scter of Mrs. Lease" is Mrs. Lease
herself; and inssmuch as the Eagle
and other republican papers that are
quoting the Eagles remarks have in
dulgsd very freely in this sort of
thing in the past they shouldn't get
30 excited now. Mrs. Lease has read
so much of this stuff in republican
papers for the past three or four
years that she has probably come to
believe there must be something in
it. Keep cool gentlemen, don't get

Bradstreet, in his review Of January

Bradstreet, in his review Of January
2, makes this statement:
There is reason 10 believe hundreds Of in
dustrisl establishments have begun work
within week or two, although not on full
time in all cases, Of which NO specific mem
tion has been made in print.
Why has no specific mention Of
these things been made in print? Can
the reader guess? We are constantly
told that manufacturers are shutting
down because they are afraid of the
effect Of the Wilson tariff. They can
not manufacture goods under the
Mckinley tariff to be sold under the
Wilson tariff. The people are told
this stuff in order to create sentiment
against a democratic congress. It
would spoil the scheme to make
specific mention" of the establish
ments that are beginning work before
the Wilson bill becomes a law, and
hence Dan and Brsdstreet make no
report of them.
The fact is, the real ground Of COM
plant by the people against this con-
gress involves republicans as well as
democrats. This battle upon the tariff
is q mere sham. Upon all questions
that concern the interests and welfare
Of the people the two parties are o
unit against them. Other causes
than the tariff effect the demand for
manufactured goods as we'll as for
agricultural products, and the people
know it. These deceptive practices
will not succeed as well in the future
as they have done in the past. A
change of small per cent. in the
tariff schedule will not change the
condition Of the people. Prosperity
will not follow the adoption of the
Wilson bill any more than it followed
the repeal of the Sherman law.

Governor Lewelling Speaks in Behalf of
Kansas People.

NpSssAe~ a@SSASA4A
Kansas People,
Addressing the National Council Of
the f. A. and I. u, assembled in Topeka,
February 6, 1894, Governor Lewslling
said:
"GENTLEMEN OF THE NATIONAL FARM

resentstives Of your illustrious order; il
lustrious because it's members have been
and are the stalwRrt champions Of bet
tor government and q more worthy CIVIL
ization. On behalf Of the people of
Kansas, and as the chief executive Of
the state, I extend to you q cordial and
hearty greeting, and express the wish
that your visit to our commonwealth
may be one OF pleasure and profit; of
profit not to yourselves alone, nor even
to the people whom you directly repre-.
sent, but OF profit TO- the whole people.
"Tn a country like ours, that which
benefits the farmer alike rebounds to
the welfare Of all, and when prosperity
crowns his toll the people rejoice.
~ have nothing to say in the way Of
flsttery to you, nor is there sught which
/ would set down in malice against 9TH
ers, but 1t can be said in truth that the
organization which you represent has
proved itself to be the vanguard Of re-
form. Where you have led q great po-
liticsl party has followed. You have
discovered the long-felt want, and the
people have responded with a political
organization which to-day stands boldly
for the rights OF individual citizenship.
Stands for the whole people against ia.
voriteism and greed.
81 wish your meeting here to-day
might be under brighter skies, but it is
no fault Of yours that the sun of pros
perity is obscured by financial distrust
aud the Generalization Of business. 1t
Is an opportune time to join with the
calamity howlers,' for it 10 lamentable
fact that no such distress and distrust
has ever been known in this country's
history ss that which prevails at the
present time.
"Were the distress confined to your
own class or to those engaged in any
particular industry it might be endured,
but it extends to all localities and en-
braces all industries. From man ufRct-
uring centsrS, especially, comes the tale
Of misery and suffering.
Charitable and benevolent ssso oiR-
tiOns are taxed to the utmost. Men who,
if furnished work, would scorn to be
the recipients Of charity, are asking
aims. Station houses are overcrowded
nightly with applicants for shelter, and
these things tell the sad story, while our
national congress Is deaf to the voice of
the oppressed. II this is a calamity

states: There has been large increase
in the number of inmates in the past
few weeks. The prison officials blame
it on the hard times, saying man would
rather steal than stsrve.' These ex-
tracts are from one or two copies of the
same paper, published in one city. It
can be repeated in every large city in the
nation, but it would bs only a repetition
OF q too sad and DER true tale. These

have hastened to tell the world that our

These things are in Kansas, and out Of

to them. But, my fellow citizens, it is
yours to remedy these conditions, and in

of millions yet unborn, to-day I
extend my thanks to your noble
order that it has stood for humanity,

The selection of Mr.. Hall is to be com

found in the county and certainly none
more worthy of recognition. Mr.. Hall
moved into the county with his father in
1861. and has resided in the township of
Middlebury continuously. He owns, and
until few months ago worked a GO
acre farm in the west part Of the town.
In the capacity of constable he has
served nineteen years, and for the past six
years has be en- deputy sheriff. He has also
been school director and census enumerator
and has represented his township in the
county conventions for many years.
His work will be the caring for a
squad of prisoners from before breakfast
until supper time, watching them during
their working hours. We doubt not that
he will prove q careful and painstaking
officer. With his family he will occupy
one of the houses near the prison built fol
the officials.

Union Meeting for Sunday School Rally.
Pursuant to the call for conference of
city S. s. workers last Wednesday evening
in the Baptist chapel to consider the matter
of S. S. rally, four churches and schools
were represented. The attendance however
was not large enough to warrant formal
action, but resolution was offered express
sive of the sense of those present in favor of
the rally and pledging to it their hearty sup
port. 1t was then suggested and moved by
Rev. Mr.. Hoyt that we have q union meet
ing OF as many churches and people as were
disposed, on Sunday evening and M. H.

the question of the proposed "rally" intro
duced, explained and definitely decided

will feel an interest in the proposed demon

Josie Holman Instantly Killed.

One of the saddest events we have ever
been called upon to record is the instant
killing of Josie, only child of Mr.. and Mrs.
III. w. Holman, which occurred Wednesday
evening.
Just what caused the accident will never
be known. Josie was riding horseback up
on the family horse, which has always been
considered perfectly gentle and reliable.
When in the road near the watering trough
on West Oliver street, in full view of Mr..
and Mrs. Holman and Mrs. Albert West,
who were sitting on the steps of the family
residence, the horse was seen to suddenly
Jump, throwing Josie off. In falling her
foot remained in the strap put upon the sad
die to take the place of stirrup, throwing
her in such manner as to break her neck.
Her fall scared the horse, causing it to run
across the street, perhaps 100 feet, dragging
little Josie until the strap broke. Mr.. VIM.
Cady who was near by at the time and saw
the accident picked her up and carried her
to the house. Medical aid was summoned
but to no avail as the physician said death
was instant with the fall. All stories as to
her foot being tied into the stirrup, that the
horse was frightened by boys, etc., are with
cut foundation. Mr.. Cady says he saw
nothing to cause the accident and that no
one can tell just how it happened.
The grief of Mr.. and Mrs. Holman, Mr..
and Mrs. West, her uncle and aunt, and Mr..
and Mrs. ID. b. Reed, grandparents, cannot
be told in words. The suddeness of the
death came with an awful shock to them
all, indeed to the whole city. The death of
a beautiful child like Josie, even after sick
ness, causes sincere sorrow. How much
more so death In this manner cannot be told
except by those whose family circle has
thus been broken. Josie was a bright win
some girl, the center of affection for the
three families and in whom they were all
wrapped up. The only comfort that can
come to them in such an hour as this is to
know that she is beyond suffering, that she
has answered the Masters call who said
"Suffer little children to come unto me, and
forbid them not. for of such is the kingdom
of heayen." She was general favorite in
the community, especially with her play
mates. Life to her meant something. 1t
was always her desirs to do for others. to
make those about her happy. Few children
of her age understood the worth of this life
and the happiness of the life 10 come as she
did. She was member of Miss Kate Cor
let's class in the Congregational Sunday
school, and had but recently been promoted
from the intermediate to the main school,
leading the class for proficiency In the
course of study. Her age was IL years.
To the parents and relatives who are thus
bowed down by aflliction, the heart of every
one goes out in silent prayer that they may
have strength given them to bear their loss.
The funeral services will be held at the
family residence tomorrow at 10 a. M, Rev,
J. r. Reitzel, her pastor officiating.
