struggles with Death with fortitude,
patience and trust. He had more than
once stated to the writer his readiness

OFFICIAL PAPER OF ALLEN COUNTY,

Topeka. JAN. ID. 1895.


Yesterday was Republican Day in
the Capital city of the State of Kan
sas. Flags were floating everywhere,
the streets were crowded with men
who wore blue clothes and Grand
Army badges, and in the lObbies of
the hotel groups of happy men were
talking about the glory of the coming
of the Lord, and singing Marching
Through Georgia. and "GlOTy Halle
lujah." The inaugural procession
started from the Copeland hotel at
eleven o'clock and moved through
masses of cheering people 10 the west
door of the State House. The retiring
officials and their successors and other
officials and guests of honor were con-
Quoted to the Hall of Representatives
where another cheering crowd await
Ell them. The usual preiiminaries
lei up to the event most eagerly
awaited, the inaugural address Of E.
n. Morrill,. And what a relief ii was
from the executive utterances that
have discouraged andhumiliated Kan
sas for the past two years. 1t was
full of the old State pride, the old
courage, the old enthus iasm, and
hope and good cheer. There was a
summary of the marvellous record of
the past thirty years, showing an in
crease in private and public wealth,
an advance along all the lines that
lead to the highest and best civiliza-
ton, which have not had parallel in
this OF any other country. And there
were some emphatic declarations to
the effect that the way to get living
was to earn it, and the way to get rid
OF debts was to pay them. All the
way through, the address had the
true ring OF sturdy manhood and stall
wart Kansas Americanism, and the
great audience cheered 1t to the echo.
Alter the address, and after the
oath of office had been administered
to all the officials-elect, Marshall's
Band led the audience in America
That was supposed to end the pro-
gram, but some good Presbyterian Re-
publican started, Praise God from
whom all blessings flow, land three
thousand people sang it as if their
lives depended on it.
In the evening there was recep-
ton and a bali, according to program,
and both Functions" attracted crowds
of highly entertained people.
1t was Republican day.

it for the purpose of this election at

Senator O'Bryan said: 81 don't know
what the rest of the Senators are 60

The time had arrived for something
critical. and Lieutenant Governor
