MET AN OLD FRIEND
John Gribi Picks Up a Home Paper In the
Districts of Colorado.

John Crib has in his possession a
relic of his recent trip, overland on
bike, to Denver, that he will not part
with for love or money. 1t is a copy of
the Eagle. Money could not buy it,"
said John to an Eagle reporter last
night. Il was riding between Lamar
and Las Animas on the high dry and
sandy plains of eastern Colorado and
could not find well, a brook or a shade
tree in all that distance. l could neither
get drink of water nor a tree to shelf
er me from a blazing sun. / was never
so thirsty in all my life and / honestly
thought l was going TO die. / was
Scorching along at a terrible rate IN
hopes of getting some water soon when
l saw a paper blowing towards me and
1t finally caught in my bike. I got off
to take ii out of the spokes Of my wheel
and as L did so 1 noticed one of the head
lines that spoke about somewhere where
there was a beautiful running brock and
lots of shade. My, thought I, wish 1
was at that place wherever il is, and as
l sat down to read it j saw that the pa
per was the Eagle and soon found out
that the shady place referred TO was
Linwood park. The thoughts of it re
freshed me. l put the article in my
pocketbook and 1 will carry it with me
all the days of my life. 1t was like ac-
cidetally meeting an old friend at the
north pole or some other out of the way
country.
John has no idea where the paper came
from but it probably fell out OF a railway
train thirty or forty miles away and
wandered over the prairie before the
breezes for six days. for It was that
Cd when John got it..

DEMOCRAT PRAISES FLYNN
Chas. III. Eagin of Oklahoma City Reports
From Washington.

Charles H. Eagin, who has just return
ed from a visit to Washington, has
nothing but prases TO say about our
delegate to congress, says the Oklahoma
City Journal He said:
During my Sojourn of two weeks in
Washington 1 made close inquiry with
a view of ascertaining how our dele
gate, Dennis Flynn, stood in the estima-
ton of the people there, and 1 must say
that l was much gratified to hear the
very favorable expressions of opinion
from all classes of men bearing testi-
mony to his industry, his faithfulness,
and his untiring energy in all directions
in behalf of Oklahoma and Oklahoma
people. It seemed to be the universal
sentiment there that Flynn was well
known in Washington as the spokesman
and champion of the people of Oklaho-
ma in every matter OFF public interest
and in addition that he seemed charged
with the performance of private errands
and special business for every citizen
of the territory who had any business to
transact in any of the departments and
that he was never too tired or too busy
to attend to the request of his constit-
uents- Every person with whom talk
ed without distinction of party express
ed the hope that Mr.. Flynn would be
returned to congress as the we'll earned
reward of his energetic and conscien-
tious performance of the duties of his

BOB ACCUSED OF 1T
What a Wichita Democrat Says Confiden-
TALLY to New York sun.


Colonel Bob Coates is accused by his
brethren of writing a letter to the New
York Sun in which he says:
"Win you allow me to congratulate
the Sun upcE its noble and patriotic
stand in tne present presidential con-
test? 1t is the great American newspa-
per. Fearlessly independent. intensely
American, and always loyal to the best
interest of our country, no person was
left in doubt as to what the Sun would
do after the Chicago convention.
THE fight this year is not confined to
Democrats and Republicans upon well
established principles, but is has mar
rowed itself down to a terrific struggle
between patriotism and Jacobinism,
between conservatism and radicalism.
and between national honor and nation
al chaos. Party lines should be obliter-
ated, and the patriotic element of the
TWO old parties, which have opposed
each other in friendly rivalry for SO
many years, should come together in
another historical contest for the main
tenance Of the Union and the suprem-
acy of law. The great republic is in
danger. Revolution is stalking broad
cast throughout the land. and anarchy
has made an open assault upon the cap
ital at Washington. Free silver is not
the only issue. 1t is only a mask that
conceals the incendiary projects OF Till
manism and Altgeldism.
"Out here in Kansas we know what
Populism means. 1t is a demoralizer of
business, a destroyer of public morals,
a debaucher of official honesty, an as
sassin of public credit. 1t is the parent
of reputation and the progenitor of an
archy. 1t commenced its assault upon
the prosperity of Kansas six years ago
with the following sentiment as a war
cry: Raise less corn and more hellp
and it is needless to say that it has been
doing an excellent job in this respect
ever since. Kansas is a state of great
resources and wonderful recuperative
powers, but it is very doubtful if the
state can recover from the bhghting and
effects of Populism in
twenty years.
Every Populist in Kansas is enthus-
istic for Bryan. He is universally re-
garded by the widest and craZiest of
the creed as one of their own. This is
the reason why the writer, a Demo-
crat for thirty years, who never waver-
ed in his loyalty to the old party of JEFF
ferSon, Jackson and Tilden, will cast
his vote for Mckinley. No good Demo-
crat who loves his country and its ira
ditions can afford to do otherwise In
the language of Mr.. Watterson, there
must be no compromise with dishonor.'
1t would be lasting digrace for even
one single state to ratify Tillmanism at
the polls

GRAND JURY WILL INVESTIGATE
County Convention in Missouri VIII
HIVE Its Aften tiOn.

Kansas City, Sept. 7.-The Star thIs eV-
ening says:
The use of money in the recent demo-
cratic county convention at Independence
will be brought to the notice of the grand
jury and it is likely that one nominee
Of that convention may be indicted for
bribery of delegates.
Ever since the day of the convention
there have been rumors that money was
used Some Of the defeated candidates
and their friends made charges openly
that they would not have been defeated
if their opponents had not bought dele
GATES. 1t was said that the buying and
selling was done so openly in the con-
yention that the delegates Of q ward, or
a group of delegates from different wards,
would pool together and appoint one OF
their number as a broker to take so
many dollars for the delivery Of so many
votes for any candidate.
