TO RENO COUNTY VOTERS:

You are aware of the fact that the
republican party in the STATE of K an
sas and especially in Reno county is
crippled to large extent. The free
silver republicans can not vote with
them, then they have nominated the
poorest ticket that ever was nominated
in this county. They have nominated
men on that ticket that are not the
choice Of the voters of Reno county.
At their last convention they sat down
on one of the best men in Reno county,
Jimmie Lewis, who was deserving of
that nomination. What has Walter
Payne ever done for this county that
he should have had that nomination?
Do you suppose that Jimmie's friends
will lay down like a whipped dog and
come ont on election day and vote for
"a man that scbemed and manipulated
things that beat Jimmie LOUIS? say
no. IfJimmie bad got that nomination
l question if the populists would have
put out man for clerk Of the court.
Now at our convention on August 18th
we do not want to make any mistakes.
We want to nominate agOod man, a
man that has more friends in the city
of Hutchinson where he is known shan
Walter Payne has. A man that can
draw more republican, votes than any
other man in the cOBntY and a nan
that would make a good clerk of bhe
court and would always treat you with
kindness in the office OF out of it, that
man is Pay Smith who every body in
this county knows,and has no enemies.
Now let US nominate Fay and we Will
mot make any mistake. b. E.

WARREN FOSTER former editor Of
the GAZETTE, has resigned his candi-
dacy for Congress in Utah which was
rendered him by the popllists short
time ago. At the time Of his nomina-
tion he was engaged in a middle of
the road" policy, but since then the
democratic convention has been held
and adopted so many of the pOpulists
demands that he changed his mind on
the policy and thought under the cir
cumstances lie should resign.

A RENO county farmer was heard to
remark last Saturday, This here durn
rain is gOin' to make us burn corn this

can't get any money for it. So alto

A FEW years ago when we we're COIN
ing considerable silver under the Bland
and Sherman laws, it was urged that
'silver wouldn't circulate" Butsince
the repeal of those laws, ard the gold
has all ibid out, the festive wide
mOuthed gold bug doesn't quite have
the affrontery to face the American
citizen in his poverty ana tell him such
stuff knowing that he will meet there
ply that all the dollars he has, which
are mighty few, are silver.

IT NOW seems to develop that the
forced resignation Of W. P. st. John
of New York from his presidency OF
the Mercantile National bank was only
part of a conspiracy to annihilate every
bank president who dared speak for
silver. H. J. JaQuith of the Hancock
National bank of Boston who was OF
the same breed of men received like
treatment and he DOW declares that
his resignation was forced by Comp
troller Eckels himself on account OF
his financial views. AS delegate to

It's a little amusing to the average
man to hear one republican shouting
that Kansas has no right to get bigger
than the nation and that the campaign
must be made upon the s.. Louis plat
form, and another saying that the only
way Kansas can be carried this year is
for the various candidates IN this State
to talk silver, the st. Louis platform to
the contrary notwithstanding.

IT WAS the good fCEtune of the sditor
OF this paper to attend the State silver
convention at Topeka last week. 1t is
very well for republicans to encourage
themselves with thGtalk that the silver
takers are all either populists or de-
mOerats, but those who attended that
convention know better. In the con-
yention as delegates were ex-republi-
cans who have represented this nation
in foreign lands, e1.candidates for Con.
gress and ex-judges. The chairman
was ex-consul to Egypt. The chaiT-
man of the resolutions committee was
ex-eonsul to Spain, the chairman of
the committee to name delegates to
st. Louis was an ex-republican candi,
date for Congress, Mr.. Pickering, pro.
hibition candidate for governor two
years ago was a delegate. The en-
thusiasm was up to boiling point and II
was very evident that when they

SOMETIMES newspaper is unavOid-
ably placed in a very embarrassing posi-.
ton by reason Of articles appearing on
the patent side which are not in bar
mony with the original editorial matter.
The reform press of Kansas has been
sorely troubled in this regard for long
time and great efforts have been made
to have it so arranged that this evil
would be rectified but so far to no effect.
Last week on the patent side Of the
GAZETTE appeared a sort Of circular
letter to the Industrial Legion from
its president Paul VanderVOOrt of
Omaha the contents of which seemed
to stigmatize the nomination of Bryan
at Chicago as bipartisan trick. Now
in relation to this we wish to say that
while the plan of the Industrial Legion
is a good one, this man VanderVoOrt
is knave, a reputed boodler, man
wholly without political standing in
the communities where heis best known
and very little any where else. There
will doubtless be coolies of Doodle ready
for distribution at st. Louis to have
another ticket put in the field. There
will doubtless be many honest men who
are favorable to such a course in the
convention, and there will be doubt
less men in the convention working for
that result whose former history will
leave them open to the charge of an
itching palm.

IN opposing the endorsement Of
Bryan, Chairman Taubeneck seems to
have reversed himself since last year
when he was for a union en- a silver
ticket and aroused much opposition
among people of his own faith there
for. AS he said to the editor Of the
GAZETTE. "When they seem to be
coming our way we ought to take ad-
vantage. of it." Now when there is
the best possible chance he seems
mYsteriouslY enought to, oppose it.
Taubeneck will not be chairman
again.

GOLD is again going out of the cOun-
try and out Of ihe treasury at she rate
of one to three millions per day. The
gold reserve IS below ninety millions
and talk of more bonds is again in the
air. However a SOnd issue won't come
mot till after election. 1t is already
announced that the banks win come to
the relief OF the treasury. To be sure
they never did such thing before, but
then there was,neyer an eleetion close
at hand before when a bond issue was
imminent Last year the MOrgan-Bsl-
mont syndicate brought gold into the
treasury and staved off the bOnd-issue
for a while, but that was in obedience
to the terms oftheir contract, and they
were roundly paid for it. Pity tits
that we don't have an election every
to bring these bankers to the re-
lief of the treasury-that is if We can't
have any other, better relief.

The redolence of steaming hypOc-
racy was never more palpable than in
the present republican campaign for
lower freight rates. With the record
of chat party in the last three legisla-
lures ON railroad legislation, one would
not think they could find etfrontery
enough in their whole poultry yard to
organize a timid peep. During these
three Legislatures they quasbed every
populist measure brought to thelr notice
in either house when they had the
majority to do so, and in all of them
only one republican measure gOt out of
committee and it took pOpulistS votes
to even do that. This is one Of the
schemes of the gold standard men who

SPANISH INQUIsITIoN
Rerired-Al It's Worst Features Intro.
duced In the Philippine Islands.


duced In the Philippine Islands.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 25.-News
from Manila, brought by the steamer
City of Peking, from Hong Kong. shows
that the Spaniards have resorted to tor
ture Of natives and half casts Of the
PHILIPPINE islands which surpasses in
cruelty that practiced by the Chinese
mandarins in cases Of the mast atrocious
crimes. They are also charged with
conflscating the estates of wealthy half
casts and deportinG these wretched VIC
Tins TO Fernadino on the west coast OF
Africa, place which has climate that
will quickly prove fatal to the stranger.
These statements are not given on the
strength of reports OF refugees. James
w. Davidson, a well known cores
pondent was recently commissioned by
tne Hong Kong Press to go to Manila
and cautioned him to evade the press
censorship, and in several letters which
he smugggled through the lines he tells
OF what he has seen and what he has
heard on good authority.
According to him, the istruments OF
torture used in the Spanish inquIsition
three centuries ago have been kept in
the monasteries OF Manilla and were
brought out recently, and used to extort
confessions from native and Mestizo
suspects who have been arrested and
have been kept in Jail In Manila sub
jected to hideous treatment. Mr.. David
son also intImates that the leading pow
ers of Chrlstendom will be called upon
TO interfere and put an end to torture
which revives the worst features OF the
Spanish inClisition.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 25.-Prirate
advices received In the city to-day from
the American Colony at Metaltonca in
the state Of Pueblo. Mexico. gave de-
finite Information of assassinations by
Poems which the Mexican government
has. until now, been able to keep se-
cret. There are several Californians in
the colony, and In view of recent events
they are fleeing to this country for their
lives. The Mexican government has
sent troops to the colony In the hope
of capturing the assassins, whom dur
3ng the past four months have murder
ed three Americans in cold blood.
The colony was formed about four
years ago and numbers two hundred
souls. A tract of 100000 acres of land
was secured at Metlaltonca. midway
between Tatnpico and Vera Cruz. Most
of the colony were prosperous farm
ers of the United States, who disposed
of their property and invested the pro-
ceeds in improving their tracts In ethe
colony. Over 5000 was invested in
improvements, and the raising Of coffee
was begun. President Diaz and the
Mexican government afforded the col
onists important aid. and every en-
couragenent was offered for the in
vestment OF their capital. The pros
perity of the colonists aroused the ha-
tired Of the MeXicans. who perpetrated
series of robberies. Cases of arson
followed, and finally three murders
were committed, all within q month.
The victims were Thomas Gomez, G.
Delny and Charles Plllson.
1t Is understood the state department
has been made acquainted with the
facts and that the Mexican government
would be called upon to make a thor
ough investigation Of the facts and to
afford American citizens the protection
they need.

met tonight to decide which was the
superior In the weller weight class. All
previous encounters had been " Inter-
estinS as they had been exciting and
battle royal was expected. The crowd
was not as big rs had been counted on.
but there were probably 2,OC0 people
IN the building when the preliminary
bout was put on with the inevitable
Charlie Hovcy as announcer and Tim
Hurst as referee. Jem Mace, the old
time English champion occupied q seat
on one Of the ring boxes and he was
the center OF attraction before the sport
began. Ett fs
The big event OF the night was then
in order and the spectators were all on
edge to see what the result would be.
Ryan entered the ring accompanied by
Jimmy Handler, Fred Smith. Tom
Brady and George English. Smith was
escorted by Charlie White, Tim Nc
Grath, Bill Crowley and larry Black.
The men met at catch weights, but there
was very little difference In their
weights. The fight was nearly even up
to the eighth round when Ryan forced
1t and held Smith to the ropes until the
gong released him. In the ninth Smith
sent his right hard on the face. making
Ryan's right eye bled freely. Ryan
swung left on tho face and Smith slip
ped to the floor. They began slugging
right and left on body and face and
Ryan seemed to have slightly the better
OF the argument. The referee saw that
the men would coon reach their limit
and stopped the bout after two min
utes and forty-four seconds had been
used UP In the round. he then declared
Ryan the winner. and when the an
nouncer gave the decision there We're
many cries Of discomfort and htsses.
The result was unsatisfactory to the
majority Of the spectators and the par
tisarls of both men were willing To have
them meet again in order to decide
which.is the better man at catch or shp-
ulated weights.
