Brahmin Priests Last Lecture Proves
the Most Interesting.

The lecture of the Brahmin priest last
night at Plymouth Church was claimed by
many to have been the best of the series
The lecturer chose for his subject, THE
Belief in Reincarnation," and for over an
hour he expounded the belief Of over a
quarter of the inhabitants Of the globe
After dealing with the tendency of the Hin
docs to see in all life a soul, he said that
mans instructive feeling of Immortality
added to his sense of ethical necessity for
previous existence made him adopt this
theory. He concluded: "Reincarnation,
then, was built on the instincts Of the hui
man race 1t had for it's foundation man s
desire for Immortality Its Superstructure
was his idea of moral responsibility which
did not cease with death. Thrown on the
rich soil of the Hindoo mind IL grew till 1t
subordinated all other beliefs. True its
long road of births and deaths was a weary
one to travel, the way was dark and cheer
less, misery and pain were the vehicles;
but il has it's consolation in the yearning
of the soul toward God, and in the widened
sympathy which included not man alone,
but the whole created world" After the
lecture the audience propounded such Ques7
tionS that they were in doubt ana
much additional information was added.
The lecturer announced that tomorrow
night he would deliver his last lecture In
the city on 1.-The Manners and Customs of
India" for which only small admission
xyouId he charged.

Two Political Rallies.

To the Editor of the WORLD:
EMPoRIA. Kan, October 5.-Thinkiuo
that the people of our community would
be Interested in knowing the feelings of
the people in other parts of the state, l
shall briefly describe two political raj
lies, which have recently occurred here.
September 81 and % occurred the
great populist rally of the Fourth dis
trict. A number OF speakers were pres
ent and entertained the people from
time to time, with the same old role of
calamity, intermingled occasionally
with the choicest bits of secondhand
sarcasm. The vast concourse of people
addressed from time to time would num-
Der from three to five hundred, with the
majority of them earnestly engaged in
telling their nearest neighbor, that the
speaker was striking the nail on the
head this time, or something of equal
Importance.
October B was the Republicans day.
No great demonstrations were made, but
axactly at the time announced, the
train, bearing Governor Mckinley,
"Ohio's favored son." arrived on the
ground,
Thousands of people had gathered to
hear what the valiant supporter of
Americas prosperity would say. In
this they were not disappointed. Though
the governor would stop with us but 20
minutes, he gave us clear, plain, log
zeal, American speech from an Ameri-
can standpoint.
In few plain words he uttered and
impressed upon the minds of the peolpe
more economic truths, than the popu-
lists have been able to PROFOUND since
the organization of their party.
The only demonstrations of the day
were few canon salutes, which COM
pare most significantly with the strong
truths uttered by the honored guest, in
this the beginning of the campaign.
As whole, the populist's great rally
would remind person more of model
schools gala day, than anything else,
while the assembled thousands of the
thoughtfully enthusiastic people who
had gathered to hear Mckinley, could
but convince the onlooker, that the peo-
pie of the great state of Kansas are go
ing to redeem her from her present state
of hallucination. Yours,

A Most Remarkable Affair.

| OAKLEY Graphic.
The populist judicial convention fol
the 23d district, which held its first
meeting in this city early in the sum-
mer and adjourned subject to the call OF
the chairman, was reconvened here last
Wednesday. After a good deal OF
wrangling, and getting badly ratified and
mixed, the convention adjourned sine
die without either nominating a popu-
list or lndorsing Saum, the democratic
nominee. The convention consisted of
twenty-four delegates, nine of whom
wanted to indorse Saum, two didn't
want to either nominate or indorse, and
thirteen OF whom wanted to nominate a
| straight popuist. But the trouble with
the thirteen was that they could not
unite on candidate. During the course
OF the wrangle we heard more accusa-
lions back and forth of dishonesty and
boodlelsm than we ever heard in our
lifetime of republican conventions.
This remarkable CD circumstance in
the party of reform (?) and purity %.
But the most wonderful thing about
this remarkable gathering was the
speech of Secretary of State Osborn at
the beginning of the afternoon session.
The little secretary was the special rep
resentative of Chairman BreidenthaI on
this occasion and he worked hard and
earnestly among the delegates to induce
them to turn down populist and in
dorse Saum, the democrat, in spite of
the fact that he had assured David
Rathbone on the train coming up that
he was not going to do anything against
nina. A fine specimen for minister
of the gospel and ''reformer!" In
his afternoon speech, however, he let
his proverbially unruly mouth get clear
away from him. He besought the dele
gates to lay aside local ambitions for the
good of the populist party in the
state and nation. He assured them
that if they Endorsed Saum, it would
cause the election of the popufist state,
congressional and legislative tickets;
whereas if they did not indorse Saum it
would cause the defeat of the populist
state, congressional and legislative
tickets. He continued that unless
every populist, every democrat and
every enemy of repubEcanism in this
state voted the populist ticket from top
to bottom the republicans would win
complete victory in every department.
1t was the most abject ante-election
confession of defeat we ever heard His
speech was listened to with dumb
1t, however was only in
the same strain as letters that Breiden-
thai, Congressman Baker and other
leading populists have been writing to
these delegates for several weeks. They |
mplored them to indorse Saum, saying
that unless they did they would defeat
The entire populist ticket and leopard
re the chances of Weaver being elected |
president in 1896!
A most remarkable confession!
