BY Soldier Tow nshlp Parties.
Frank and Amos Goodman, and Con-
stable Wright Of Soldier township, have
commenced a suit in the district court in
which Justice Grover. Constable Smith

PENDANTS. The petition accuses Justice

fair verdict in a replevin suit aud hiding
the appeal bond until after the time had

enjoined from annoying the plaintiffs.

A DEMOCRATIC RALLY.
The Meeting At Hamilton Hail Addressed
by wo Leaders.

Topeka had its first Democratic rally
on Saturday night at Hamilton hall.
There was not very large mum Der pres
ent but those who did attend heard
thoroughgoing Democratic doctrine.
J. J. HIT acted as chairman, and the
speakers were Joseph G. Lowe of Wash
ngtOn county, candidate on the Demo
cratic ticket for attorney general, and
David Overmyer Of Topeka, the caDdi-
date for governor
Mr. Lowe was the first speaker and
denied that the Democrats were respon-
slble for the present hard times. He
said that the only question before the
people Of Kansas was which party can
best care for the interests Of the people.
aud that the Democratic party was the
only one which could best administer the
affairs of government
Mr.. Overmyer made one of his vigor-
Gus speeches and held the attention of
the audience to the last He com pliment-
ed President Cleveland and the lower
house of congress, but denounced the
senate for its dilatory tactics. lie said
that the head and body Of the Democracy
were in the west and south while the
tail was in the east and that frost would
soon come and bite off the tail and it
would fall into the lap Of Republicanism.
He said the stand taken by the Populists
was a good one if they desired to excuse
themselves before the people as they de-
handed things they knew they would not
get lie said that the only friend Of sill
yer is the Democratic party.
He said that Governor Lewelling liken-
ed himself to Jesus Christ but that he
saw one difference, Christ rode into Jer-
usalem upon ass, but the governor
rides into Topeka upon a pass he said
he would not argue corporation matters
with a man who has a pass. because he
could only see what the railroads want
him to see. The reason why Governor
LewelIing wanted the government to buy
the railroads was because some of the
railroads were perfectly willing to sell.
