Democratic league, one of the organ izations which has been fighting stren- uously to compel Tammany Hall to nominate a free silver man for mayor.
 The purpose of the convention last night doubtless was to force Tammany to nominate a free silver man. No one seemed to know just what Henry George would do, but Charles Freder- ick Adams said he thought that Mir. George would wait until all the con- ventions are held and then accept this nomination if there remained suffi- cient reason to make a protest.
 The delegates seemed to take 1t for granted that MT. George would accept if Tammany Hall does not nominate a free silver candidate.

Immediate Blockade of the Ports of Greece
Has Been Ordered.
LONDON. March 16.-According to St
Petersburg advices all the admirals of
the powers in the vicinity of Greece,
except the French and Italian com
manders, have been ordered to imme-
diately blockade the principal Greek
ports. especially the Piraeus (the port
of Athensl. Syria and Volo and an ulti-

to Greece by the admirals of the
foreign fleets. The proposal of the
powers that France and Italy occupy
the island of Crete with mixed force
of p, 200 men has been declined by the
governments OF those two countries on
the score of expense. and the Occupa-
ton will be undertaken by the forces
of the active six powers, although
Germany and Austria will only nom
inally take part in order to show that
they are favorable to the measure.

who taught the people the doctrine of
the rights of the user.
Until he has done something to prove
TO the contrary, l am inclined to be-
lieye that the present senator from the
Peerless Princess is no more creditable
TO Kansas than when as governor he
skinned old Pete Kline out of all his
earthly substance; until he has done
something more than issue flsmbOyant
Egyptian messages, which contain no
message, l shall regard Governor John
w. Leedy as no better than the vul-
| garian, who stood in the state senate
and talked about blowing blood into
the ears of the corporations and hang
| ing the hides of the capitalists upon
the fence to dry.
There is no man who wishes more
ardently than myself that Kansas
credit might be restored to the high
place it occupied before the reformer
came. There is no man who can stand
up for Kansas with more sincerity
than myself have always lived in
Kansas. The cherished memories of
my bOyhoOd linger along its streams
and in its valleys and upon its green
hillsides. The dreams of my youth
were cOlOred by the crescent promise
of its blue skies; the impulses of my
manhood were heightened by the
heroic story OF that early day; aud it
is because ofthese affectionate associa-
tions that | am not ready to extend
the hand of fellowship to the reformer
until he has done something to restore
that which he tore down in Kansas.
When he asks me to stand up for
Kansas, can not help but remember
that the necessity of standing up for
Kansas was never known until the
refOrmer, by his misrepresentation
and his reprehensible conduct in
office, made it perfectly exeusable for
the East to believe anything of Kan
sas.
Kansas will live through the reform
period as she has lived through every
other disastrous period in her history.
What we need today is a return of the
sturdy courage and the profound COM
mOu sense which characterized the
builders of the state.
Grant me to see, and Ajax asks no
MORE" is the prayer which the great
poet up into the lips of his hero in
the darkness which Overspread the
Grecian camp. Grant the people of
Kansas TO see the opportunities they
have been wasting, and to appreciate
the responsibilities of citizenship
which they have been abusing, and
the day will soon come when Destiny
may close the book OF Lamentations,
and open a volume of more gracious
Kansas history.

Retter Than a Doctor.

A lawyer had a great reputation for

How may we as society do better

column. 1 might say the object.
Many thoughts suggest themselves
but since the Bible is our guide book,
and is such an inexhaustible store
house of wisdom, advice and comfort,
the first thought is how much Bible
work are we doing? Have we Bible
classes that meet regularly to study
and thus know what God has for US
in this treasure. There are so many
ways and lines of work, but what are
we doing may be asked by each indi-
vidal member, and if you are success
fully carrying out some plan Or study,
how it is done might help others.
