turned P0puAlss you repneQ, les "
Far as voting for Harris is concerned"
Thope that you and every other loyal
republican in Kansas viii withhold your
votes from Morrill, and Blue. They
begged nomination at the hands Of
the republican convention and promised
to stand Bqusrely upon any platform
which we might make.
The convention stood at least three.
fourths for silver and consented to the
first half of the money plank because Of
the crazy quilt platforms then made in
the ssvsn congressional districts, ssand
in the interest OF harmony we silver
men consented to the platform aS made
with the distinct understanding that
Morrill, and Blue, both known ROld-bugS,
would abide thereby. I thought then
and know now that it was bad policy to
make silver platforms and put gold
bugs thereon, but the convention
thought otherwise, just as republican
conventions have been doing 80 long
that We are out Of power every.
where. Yet had hoped that Morrill,
and Blue, seeing Che handwriting on the
wall would profit thereby; but it seems
that my fear that they would not Ia well
grounded, because they at once made
hsste to get on thR aFostrum at Kansas
City, KA&, on Saturday evening, the
10th, and promptly repudisted our plat
form upon which they were nominated
and became more pronounced in favor
Of the continuation OF present conditions
than ever.
And. NO matter what other Eepubli-
cans may do, as for myself have put
up with such conduct just 90 long as
intend to, and / shall refuse my vote To
either Of them. They don't deserve any
KRnssns' vote.
We are now az people bound hsnd

power is in England and not here, ex-
cept as that power acts through its
agents here, and any party that seeks to
continue US upon q gold basis, whore we
find ourselves today through some
body's villiany because no party or man
has ever been delegated by the people
to perpetuate the foul wrong) ought not
to receive the vote Of any man who loves
bis country.
For some time I have been doubtful
il the people will ever get relief from
the republican party, and l am now sat
ished that a. the leadership Of that
party is now constituted we can sxpeCi
nothing from it, and for one l shall 70

ROAD RACERS FINISH.
Record of 20 Hours 81 Minutes
Made BY Williams,

PITTsBURG. Aug. 25. - The bicycle
road race from Buffalo to this city was
won by George E. Williams in the
remarkable time of 20 hours 81 minutes,
reaching here at 1881; Wallin, of Erie,
was second in 81 hours Is minutes, and
Grin, of Cleveland, third in % hours So
minutes. Williams punctured his tire
east OF Wcstfield, and had to take a
heavy machine between ConneautVille
and Greenyille. Williams says he
walked ten miles. The surprise of the
the race was the collapse OF the Buffalo
riders. Klopf fell out, and Wenig and
Seinal quit at Erie.
The team race between picked riders
of Cleveland, Buffalo and this city was
won by the PlttSburg boys, they having
forty points. Cleveland has fourteen
points: and Buffalo nine. The mem
bers Of the winning team to finish were
Williams, Wakefield and Weir. Only
one OF the Cleveland men, Grimm, got
in, and none of the Buffalo riders fin
iShed. Morrill,, of Cleveland. was
taken sick at Beaver Falls, and Blake
and Cleveland, of Buffalo. gave up at
Cunneautville.

MfLLEEs IN THE LEAD.
The Brewers Get Rather a Bad
ThraShing.

The MillerS auspici0usly celebrated
their return home by taking a fall"
out of the Brewers. 1t was a pretty
contest, and the score was close and
interesting for five innings. but in the
sixth inning Barnes batsmen piled
up seven runs by good batting and base
running. Stevens. the star twirler for
the visitors, was In the box, but his
curves and shoots were easily solved.
Hines, especially, had good eye,"
and made two home-run drives,a double
and two singles out of six times at the
bat. ViSner aud Crooks each found the
globe safely three times, and Parvin
made terrific drive over the fence,
with two men on bases. Twitchell and
Taylor took the batting honors for the
visitors, each making three safe hits.
Parvin pitched a fine game. He had
greater speed than usual. and better
control of the ball. The personnel of
the Brewers is quite different than
when the team was in Minneapolis on
the last trip. Twitchell. Goodnough,
Long and Klopf are valuable 'acquisi-
tions. and Manager Cushman believes
that the team will mold its own for the
rest of the season. The fielding of both
teams was good. Hulen's mutf of pop
fly was the only error for the home
team
