The Goodland republic. [volume] (Goodland, Kan.) 1891-1907, 1898-10-14

Saturday the republicans held their
county convention.
The memb ers OF that once grand old
party assembled at the court house to
administer the county affairs Of an Or
ganizatiOu that in the time Of Abraham
Lincoln won the love Of men by reason
OF its splendid principles and espOusal
Of justice; but that in the recent war
with Spain has as splendidiy demon
strated the fact that the name Alger-
ism has come to mean a synonym Of
incOmpetency, which is steadily but
surely Transforming the love Of its
heretofore ardent WOTshippers into
that Of hate.
At 1:30p. N. 7. u. Simmons, perman-
ent chairman, called the meeting to
order and expressed the purpose of the
occasion. r. j. Jones acted as secre-
tary. After the disposition of prelim-
mary matters, and reports Of several
committees, came the report of the
committee on resolutions. OF course,
it was antithical-the resplendent
glory Of McKinleyfsm, both in peace
and in war; placed against the bedab-
bIed escUtcheon Of POpUlism; and de-
claTed that th6 criticism on the man
ner IN which the recent war was prose
Cuted was uuWaTTanted and unjust.
Shame on such A declaration
The convention now proceeded to
nominate county candidates. DR.. A.
a Shelley being the only candidate
placed before the convention for repre-
sentative, was nominated by acclama-
ton Iowa and Shermanville townships
we're not represented.
John Baker of Lincoln township, and
Frank Jones of VOltaiTe, we're ballOted
upon for county superintendent. Mr..
Jones received the nomination on the
first ballot.
The names Of H NJ HestOn, John
Arendt and William HOgebOOm came
before the convention as candidates
for clerk of district court. Three bal
lots were necessary TO a choice, result
ing in favor of Mr. HestOu.
For probate judge, p. 5. Darling,
Thomas Butt and j. D. Wareing, as
pired Mr. Butt withdrew his name,
and Mr.. Darling won out on second
ballot
E F. Murphy being the only man
named for county attorney, the con
7entiOn grew grave and halted between
two opinions. Two years ago Mr.. Muir
ply made speeches in favor Of free
silver, and seemed to stand on the
Planks not hewn out by the republican
party. OF course his action was to be
deprecated by every good republican,
and after a lengthy discussion, he was
baptized and taken on probation.
The commissioner delegates retired
to the jury room and nominated Icha-
bod Warner for commissioner of the
Second district
j. W German was nominated by the
republicans Of the Third district for
commissioner
The waning interest Of the meeting
was somewhat restored by expressions
Of party fealty from those who had
grown hidebOund in the ranks. One
gentleman whose hair Is silyered by
the lapse OF time, arose, and with the
fervence Of prayer, declared that he
belonged soul and body to the republi-
can party Another lOyalist unable
longer to restrain his ardOr, confessed
that he was a gOldbug, through and
through, with no gold to back him!
Brother, beware, the republican prin-
ciples teach that every gold certificate
must have gold behind it for redemp-
toni

The shooting OF Private Godfrey
in Charleston by negro a short
time ago has brought about a
crusade against vagrants in the
city. It's the old story of locking
the stable door after the horse
escapes, nevertheless some good
must be accomplished by partial
banishment of the scum of idle
and vicious negroes, which has for
years floated on the troubled waters
of vice in certain quarters OF the
metropolis of the State. 1t would
he well, however, to turn some at
tention TO the actual murderer.
while driving out the horde of pos
sib,e evil doors, lest, as IN The war
with Spain, the chief issue be for
gotten.

TWELVE MILLION BALES.

Based on agricultural reports
received, the cotton crop for the
season of1S9S 80 is estimated ia b.,
in round numbers, Il, 2,000,000baleE
These esiimateS,as Il rule ARE sub
stantiated by the actual yield.
W ith good surplus on hand from
the IL 100000 bale crop OF last
year. the chances for better prices
are slim indeed. 1t is true that
new channels of commerce have
recently been opened up, which
will to a certain extent aid in
consuming the product, but in the
face of such an enormous yield the
effect will be scarcely perceptible.
Whatever argument to the con
trary is advanced there is no rea
sonable doubt that the small de-
mand for cotton is due 10 over
production. Repeated attempts
at organized effort TO cut down
acreage have resulted in failure,
so that the only chance we see is
for each farmer, without talking
about it, to reduce his cotton crop,
and raise an abundance of pro-
visions. We know of several who
have tired this plan, and in every
instance it has proved a success.
While not much money is made,
the farmer can at least keep out
of debt. The day of planting
enormous crops and working them
on credit is past, and the sooner
our farmers realize it, he better
they will succeed in their business.

Al Critical l'Tinle

SICK Or NELL, A RUSH Aaal
Am DAy.

The Packers at the Battle of Santi-
ago de Cuba were all Heroes.
Their Heroic Efforts in Getting
Ammunition and Rations to the
Front Saved the Day.
Pc Butler of pack-train No. 8,
writing from Santiago de Cuba, on
July 23, says: ave all had diar-
rhoea in more OF less violent form,
and when we landed we had no
time to see doctor, for it was a
case of rush and rush night and day
to keep the troops supplied with
ammunition and rations, but thanks
to Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy, We were able to
keep at work and keep our health, in
fact, | sincerely believe that at one
critical time this medicine was the
indirect saviour of our army, for if
the packers had been unable to work
there would have been no way of get
ting supplies to the front. There
were no roads that a wagon train
could use. My comrade and myself
had the good fortune to lay in sup
ply of this medicine for our pack
tram before we left Tampa, and |
know in four cases it absolutely
saved life"

A GROWING EVIL.

It's little out of our line to
discuss through these columns
matters pertaining to religion, but,
having the welfare of our people
at heart, we could not refrain
from clipping from contempt
rary the article on Mormanism
published in this issue. This IS a
great and growing evil, and the
hold that these self styled Latter
Day Saints have obtained among
our people during the past few
years is alarming in the extreme.
Ten years ago the religion of
the Danites was unknown TO US
save Dy vague report ofthe Noun
tam Meadow massacre and the
polgyamous indecencies of the fol-
lowers of Joseph Smith and Brig
ham Young IN far off Utah.
BY almost imperceptible de
grees this monstrous farce of a
religion has crept onward till now
there is not a State or territory in
the union where Norman elders
are not planting the seeds Of the
noisome weed of :heir religion.
Indeiatigable and insensible alike
to persecution and rebuff, these
zealots do their "missionary"work.
and in the most specious and insi-
dious manner bring the evil TO our
very doors.
How to deal with this menace
to orr christian civilization is one
Of the most perplexing questions
that confronts the church of God
and the State as well. Legisla-
tive statutes seem but 10 work to
their advantage, while mob vio-
lence enllsts sympathy IN their
behalf. The most effective way
TO strike a blow at their encroach.
ments seems 10 be through the
ministry. It's among the igno-
rant and illiterate classes that these
strange, new doctrines fl nd foot
hold, where minds unframed are
powerless to combat an argument :,
and the sleek-tongued decei7ers
find them an easy prey.
Itis the duty of our preachers
TO go among such people and ac-
quaint them with the fallacles Of
this religion and to educate them
enough to open their eyes to its
denominations. An exposure of
the enormities in the guise Of re-
ligion perpetrated by false teach
