LOCAL POLITICAL NOTES.

On Sunday morning Sept. Is, the
X. G.. Times contained this dispatch:
Colony, Kan, Sept 12.-L. C. Boyle, the
brilliant young orator of Fort Scott, and
candidate for attorney general on the fusion
ticket. spoke yesterday. delighting an i'm
mense audience. Mr.. Boyle made friends
and votes at this place, score of repubn-
cans having declared their intention of vot-
ing for him"
as matter of fact Mr.. Boyle was
not in Colony at all and of course did
not make any speech. This is good
illustration of one of the ways that
free coinage is sweeping the coun-
try"
-
And now it is reported that Frank
Doster has had his deposits trans
muted into gold. They are all afraid
of their own medicine.
-
From the great glee with which the
silver people talk about the advance
in prices to follow free coinage, some
clever satirist has suggested that
future advertisements will run some
what as follows: "Great Bargains.
Prices of all goods advanced fifty per
cent The dearest store in town.
Everything marked up. Special lot
of Women's hats, price $3.50, now 60
ing at $780," etc. etc.

D. o. MCCRAY, of Topeka. one of
the best known newspaper men in the
state, and until recently a free silver
advocate, has returned from a trip to
Mexico. He went to Mexico to study
the condition of the laboring people
and agricultural classes, and he says
among other things: SIN the ten days
spent in the agricultural districts 1
saw more restitution, poverty and
want than have seen in twenty-five
years in the United States. Scores of
the half clothed, hungry poor came in
from the country to meet the traveller
at the railroad stations to sell their
wares or beg for one centavO. Poor
old women look with pleading eyes
in your face, and in the Spanish
tongue, implore you Sin the good
Lords name to give something to
starving humanity

The Republican meeting at Hum
bOldt last Monday evening was a
most gratifying success. Germania
Hall was crowded, and the Republi-
cans of Humboldt showed themselves
to be aroused and enthusiastic. Col.
Harris mOdestly disclaims any ability
as an orator, but his "talk" was the
talk of a sound, sensible, patriotic
man with wide business experience
and level head, - man who can be
trusted to look after the best interests
of the Second District in Congress.
He was followed by Capt. Ewing
whose address wrought the audience
to the highest pitch of enthusiasm.
1t was a good meeting.
~
G. n. Lamb and Charley Knowlton
had rousing meeting up at Carpen
ter's school house on Tuesday even
ing. The Repu blicans in that neck
of the woods are lined up tight as a
drum and will give good account
of themselves on election day.
-
The Geneva primary will be held
from three to five tomorrow.
-
Owing to the storm last Friday
evening the attendance at the Nc
Kinley meeting was small. Those
who were brave enough to get out,
however, were amply repaid for their
trouble, as they were instructed and
entertained by splendid speech by
Mr.. J. H. Crider, of FIT. Scott. Mr..
Crider is man ofintense convictions,
and he expresses himself with force
and clearness that carries his audi
ence with him. We trust that we
may have him again in lola under
more favorable skies.
-
Hon. Z. s. Reed, candidate for
State Senatar from the WiIson-Neo-
sho district, and Hon. A. l.. Wilson,
of Cherryvale, have promised to make
some speeches in Allen county. They
are both strong men and when they
come everyb body in reach ought to
hear them.
-
There are now seven Presidential
tickets in the field, viz: Mckinley and
Hobart, Republican; Bryan and Sew
all free silver Democratic; Palmer
and Buckner, gold Democratic; Bryan
and Watson, Populists; lowering and
Johnson, Prohibitionist; Bentley and
Southgate, National ProhibItionist,
and Matchett and Mcguire, Socialist.
="
The people who attend the meet
ings addressed by Hon. g. II. Lamb
are loud in their praise of the splendid
speeches by the Republican candidate
for State Senator. They say they are
logical, argumentative, eloquent, and
yet so courteous in lone that no one
can possibly take offence. They are
vote-winning speeches,
and are not only making friends for
Mr.. Lamb, but strengthening the
party.

burg Wednesday was far and away

A story comes UP from California OF q
gold strike~in Auburn, Placer county. II
was made In the Marguerite mine. owned
by comparatively poor people. and all res
idents of San Francisco. Like most big
discoveries, that OF the ore in the Mar
guerite mine was made almost by aeci-
dent. The Marguerite mine Is really a
part OF the Old Salzae that was worked
so probably In 1860 At the time II yielded
vast amounts OF the yellow metal but
suddenly ''petered." and the promoters
pulled out for Virginia City, little think
ing that within FIVE feet OF their shaft
there was a fortune concealed in the
rocks Some OF the ASSAYS show a valua-
ton Of SIS. 600 ton. Several tons have been
extracted, the lot showing. SAYS the Call.
an average value OF over s. 900 per ton.
Since the big discovery the ledge has
been fenced In and men placed on guard
day and night. The little bit that has
been taken out VIII aggregate about so. 900
and the ore is 30 fine man could almost
carry a fortune in his pocket
