BARNEY KELLY,s WORK.
His Energies Still Devoted to Getting Even
With the Adlni u istration.

With the Administration,
Rev. Bernard Kelly is giving his en-
tire time to the old soldiers of Kansas
and is attending from two to four reun-
ions each week. Some times he speaks
twice day. While Mr.. Kelly has been
severely roasting the present state ad-
ministFation in his speeches he has not
named state officer. 1t has not been
necessary A general excoriation of
the "redeemers' who promised SO much
reform and who have done nothing in
that direction calls forth hearty ap-
plause
After Mr. Kelly's speech at Parsons,
where he paid special attention to Col.
Dick Blue for going back on his silver
speeches last year, and the state admin
istration in ignoring old soldiers in ap-
pointments, the state house crowd de-
cided that something must be done.
O. Z. Hill. Governor MOrrill's executive
clerk, was sent to the Cotfeyville reunion
to counteract Kelly's influence. He was
armed with list of old soldiers that had
been appointed to Office by Morrill,
The first man Hill tackled was A. C,
Reynolds, editor of the Sedan Times
Journal.
Hill pulled his list and commenced
reading the names of soldiers appointed
to Office:
''sol Miller. Troy. T. w. Eckert, Ark
ansas City"
"Stop right there" said Reynolds, and
after breaking one of the command
ments, he walked away where he could
silently mediate. SOL Miller and
Eckert, soldiers" he mumbled to him
self as he thought of the veterans
friend" in the state house.
Hill manages not to meet up with
Kelly at the reunions. If the parson
ever gets a chance at the administration
representative he will probably make
things lively. 1t would be a contest
worth travelling many miles to see.
