The Democratic convention Of
johnson county convened at this
place last Saturday 10 appoint del
sgaies 10 the Congressional con
ventiOn to be held at West Liberty
to nominate = candidate for Con
gress. This county instructed for
T. Y. Fitzpatrick. Tom has been a
good member and should be re-
turned. Green Meeks, John p.
Wells, Charles IIowes and u. H..
COnley were appointed a. delegates.
b. II. Conley, wife and child have
been spending several days visit
Judge A. p. Cooper, Of MagofIin,
the father OF Mrs. Conley. They
report a pleasant visit.
On last Friday night at o'clock
Conley's school house ON Jennies
Creek was consumed by fire. 1t
was evidently the work Of an in
cendiary. II is thought that the
perpetrator Of The deed will be
brought to justice, as suspicion
rrsts on a certain official, cireum-
stantiaI evidence being very strong
against him.
Lieutenant J. X. Dixon, Corporal
Jay VinsOB, and Privates Walter
Bruce, Frank Hines, Frank Bar
rIngtOn are here now enlisting re-
cruits for the Third Ky. regiment
Of volunteers. The following have
been sworn in and started on Tues
day to Chickamauga:
Tygart f. VinsOn, James II.
George, James VanhOOse, FredeT-
lex Baldwin, William /. MeClond,

J. Spradlin, AIonzO F. VanhOOse,
Jay F. Brown, Benjamin F. Rule,
Dennis b. Conley, John IL. Ward,
Burns Castle, Ira s. Cantrill, Geo.
VIM and Lewis Ferguson.
We think this speaks well for
Lieut.. Dixon, as he arrived here
last Saturday evening, and has not
been away from town. He was a
brave soldier in the great civil war
and his head has been silvered Ov-
er by the frosts Of many winters,
but he marches now like a youth
OF eighteen summers. The boys OF
company VI like their officers. At
about one o'clock Tuesday the
whistle OF the Jennie George an
nounced that the time had arrived
for the volunteers to get aboard to
start for Chickamauga. Lieuten-
ant Dixon marched the soldiers,
and many citizens Of the town went
to bid the boys farewell. Wives,
mothers, brothers, sisters, sweet
hearts and friends were present to
bid farewell to the brave vOluD-
teers. Many tears We're shed, and
many persons turned away with
sad hearts, but the young men, re-
Numbering the Maine, and being
filed with patriotism, went brave
~ on.
We wish the boys success as sol
oilers and hope TO welcome them
back home in the near future.
Widow Borders is very sick with

Judge G. w. Mckay and Hon. Chas.
II. Apt, OF Pratt, filed the Boyle date
last Wednesday, in this city, Mr.. Apt
made the principal address in the after
noon and Judge Mckay made the prin.
cipal one Of the evening, although both
spoke twice. The audience in the at
ternoon was rather small on account
Of The busy season. Not moro than IS
were present. At night the courthouse
was we'll filed. Messrs. Mckay and
Apt made excellent talks. Judge Nc
Kay, of course. is recognized as one of
the ablest men and deepest thinkers In
the state, and it goes without saying
that his speech was of q high educa-
tional order. MIR. Apt Is q democrat
and an able talker. His speech was
along reform lines generally. He Is a
firm believer in the initiative and refer
endum and government ownership of
public franchises and produced some
forcible arguments In behalf of these
measures. This was our first opportun.
ity Of hearing Mr.. Apt although we
have heard of him as campaign speak
er frequently. We only give voice to
the feeling of those who attended the
meeting when we say that Mr.. Apt is
one OF the brainiest men in Southern
Kansas and is capable Of doing great
work on the rostrum.
