CHOSE CHARLIE SCOTT.
The Republican League After an
Uproarious Session
NAMES THE lola STATE SENATOR

at the Head Of Its Organization
stories and Incidents of the After
noon and Evening.
For about two hours yesterday after
noon at the meeting of the State Repub-
lican league things were pretty badly
mixed It would have taken a man with
a compass, a thorough knowledge of
geometry and a mighty level head to
have discovered his own name for
time and every body was helpless. Ordi-
narily Mr.. Sheldon is a very good pre-
siding officer and he was as good d one
yesterday as any man could have been.
! He kept his temper, which is most sur
Fprising. and has nObOdy's blood on his
hands today.
It all began with the election of Off
GERS. The committee on order of bust
mess had resolved to vote by districts,
Ebut some man with a fendish thirst for
misery moved that the vote be taken by
j delegations and the vote began. Charley
Scott and Harry Bone had each been
nominated for president
Everything ran smoothly enough till
the list was completed, but when the
! end was announced at least fifty men
were on their feet in an instant demand
ling recognition. 1t was worse than an up
roar, and Chairman Sheldon was rather
taken aback. 1t was a question of who
could yell the loudest, and the contest
was entered into with will. Nobody
remembers exactly who was recognized
first, others were recognized with such
rapidity. Newspaper men, who were
used to keeping track of all sorts of out
bursts, simply laid down their hands and
waited for the smoke to clear away.
At least fifteen different delegations
lNlaima6 n h2Uo lost thar vOfoa SOr0o
of them were not present when the vote
was called, some of them had just paid
their dollar, and one or two wanted to
change the votes they had already cast.
Aud almost every body in the hall wanted
to talk.
Here is one small incident: A little
west of the center of the room stood an
old gray bearded man trying to get re-
cognition. He was from Jefferson coun-
ty, he said, when he did get chance,
and represented a delegation that had
not been called, though he had paid the
dollar required A motion had just been
carried to the effect that no new delega-
tions should be admitted, and the chair
man ruled that the case could not be at
tended to at that late time, and the
vote could not be admitted All this was
after the old man had lost most OF his
voice and good deal of his patience in
the endeavor of an hour to get the chairs
attention. All this time he had been on
his feet He had been sent to cast those
four votes, however, and he meant to do
it.
Finally the chair consented to submit
the admission of the Jefferson county
mans votes to the house, and they were
rejected. Bernard Kelly was near and
this aroused him. After time he sue

had gained for us in the markets of the

farmers and directly depressing the

We condemn the vicious and un- Ameri-

opposition to the deliberate judgement
OF the American people, and which has
brought upon US individual distress and
national disaster.
''lt is not the province of the league to
formulate platforms or outline policies
and we do not claim any authority to
speak for the Republicans of Kansas, but
as members of the rank and file of the
party we do not hesitate to announce it
as our conviction that the restoration of
the Republican party to power will bring
with 1t return to a tariff policy which
will bring back the commercial prospect
ty which the wise measures of the Fifty
first congress inaugurated; that it will
bring return to patriotic and vigorous
foreign policy which will make our flag
admired and respected in every port
of the globe; that it will guarantee in
the future, as it always has in the past,
the most ample justice to the brave
men who offered their lives that the
Union might be preserves; and that
it will bring back a monetary policy and
a coinage system which will Immediately
add to our currency the product of our
American mines and restore silver to its
old place as one of the money metals,
thus placing the finances of our country
upon basis which will bring confidence
and prosperity to all our people.
