Mr.. Overmyer in opening. said he

too serious in order to be entertaining,

of Kansas to meet his fellow citizens.
who are moved by fear. hope and
expectation that move him. lie was
here as representative of the great
political party of the country. that
come into being with the constitu-
ton, which has stood ever since and
will never fal. until the constitution
falls. Its longevity, he said, is due to
the fact that it stands by the constitu-
ton. lie then briefly referred to
present condition of affairs in the
nation, placing the responsibility
upon the Republican party.
Coming down to the issue in the
state, he said that the Democratic
party of Kansas demands a repeal of
the prohlbitory amendment and all
the Infamous laws on the statute
books passed in pursuance thereof.
Mr.. Overmyer said Kansas first suf-
fered from ar invasion of missionary
talent, and me people were induced
to vote for the amendment which was
adopted by a curious provision in the
constitution. No sooner had this been
inserted in the constitution than
series of laws followed and
more tyrannical than the other. These
laws deprived the people of self-gov-
ernment.
On the subject of woman suffrage,
Mr.. Overmyer said both Republican
and Populist parties have declared for
woman suffrage, but the Democrats
say no, this is wrong, unnatural aud
a domination. Right-minded women
don't want it. The adventures, bold
and brazen women who want it to dis
play themselves. There are no neces-
sary relations between the ballot box
and the right of power to be taxed.
If women demand the ballot it implies
we have been unjust to women, and
ask If the citizen was prepared to
vote himself a monumental scoundrel.
because that is what he would be if he
has been unjust to woman. He de-
clared that the present electorate
would be unequal suffrage
