Seneca NeaOS, September 10: "Sst-
urdsy was a great day for the cause of
free silver. Senator Peffer and j. ID.
Botkin were ip the city, and their pres
ence drew great crowds. The WigWsm
was the place of meeting, and Senator
PETER spoke first. We all know what
a forceful speaker he is, and on this
occasion he did credit to the cause he
represents. He never abuses, and
never misrepresents any point on which
he desires to represent the people. One
of the best Informed men of the Sen
ate, he is never at loss to express
himself, and on the question Of finance
he made himself unusually plain and
explicit. Mr.. Botkin is man that
proves every statement he makes as he
goes, and on this occasion he took the
Congressional Record as the basis of
proof. Mr.. Botkin is one of the finest
speakers we have, and is doing fine
work in the cause of the people. A
large crowd attended the meeting and
paid close attention to his remarks. 1t
was Vote-making day"

Schoonover, as he broke to them the
bread of National life and prosperity

He showed the people the sbsurdity of

DODGE City, September l0.-The re-
ception given Jerry Simpson here to-
day was such as to effectuslly disprove
the assertion that the silver "craze" is
dying out. Notwithstanding the very un
satisfactory condition of the weather,
which was very pleasing to the Repub-
licans, over 1000 people by actual
count heard Jerry at the rink. The
pRrcde was a splendid one. In 1t was
wagon drawn by four white horses
in which rode seventeen young ladies,
sixteen dressed in white and one In
yellow. The Bryan Marching Club In
two divisions and a company of forty
mounted men were features. The

The writer had the privilege of attend,
ing Prof. William Stryker's meeting at
Dexter (Cowley county, on the evening
of September g. The two rooms of the

fessor spoke for nearly two hours,
holding the closest attention of the
audience, He started out by showing
how the present conditions were Grip.
pling our schools, churches and fra
ternal orders. He quoted history to
prove the effects Of a constantly con-
tracing currency, how 1t concentrates
the wealth of q nation In the hands of
the few, who, in their inordinste greed,
corrupt the government and finally
overthrow it. The same conditions
exist here in an incipient stage that
proved the ruin of Rome, Greece,
Egypt and other degraded powers
which once led the world In progress
aud education. He touched up the
Mexican dollar "object lesson" In a
fitting manner. Although the Pro-
fessor claims to be an amateur In a
political canvass, he makes first class
speech, srgumentative and unanswer-
able. His genial ways and unassum.
ing bearing please the people with
whom he mingles. There is no ques-
tion but that he will be the next Super
intendent of Public Instruction, and a
good one. Dexter is awakening and
already shows substantial gains for
the free silver cause. A cousin of w.
J. Bryan lives here-A. Bryan by name,
and is a most jealous worker. He has
many enthusiastic helpers, among them
several who have formerly worked in
the Republican ranks.

MARYsyILLE, September Hon,
J. ID. Botkin spoke here to-day to a
very satisfactory crowd. Nearly all
who heard him were voters. His
speech made a particularly good i'm
preston because of the fact that it
contained no abuse, no ridicule- just
plain, cold arguments and facts. He
did great good here and satisfied his
hearers that he is a fit man for the
high office for which he has been
named.

all of the positions he took"

here to-day. A parade of over a mile

The crowd was the largest assembled

absorb their food until II is digested any

their Shaker Digestive Cordial is meeting
