HE IS FOR STANLEY
Cash Henderson Is for a WI
chita Man All the Time.
WICHITA AND STANLEY
Is the Plank Which He Will
Support This Year.

"I shall cast my vote for W. z. Stanley
for governor Of the best state in the
Union" said Cash Henderson yesterday.
How long have you been Democrat"
was asked OF Mr.. Henderson
''seventy-fve or eighty years, guess"
he said with laugh.
THE Democrats. in my opinion. do not
appreciate the idea of a home man. Every
Democrat IN this county and southern
Kansas should give their vote 20 Stanley.
He IS home man has the home interests
at heart and Wichita viii be taken care OF.
We viii get something Il Stanley is elected,
and there is no question in my mind but
be WIZ have a handsome majority"
How much VII MS majority be?''
From what / can learn from the travel
ing men, who go from one end Of the state
10 the other ana meet al classes OF people,
# is my opinion that Gene Stanley Will
get at least Is. 900 majority. 1 put it at
the minimum. Really. think il VIII not be
far off from O. coo.
Stanley is going to be the next gov
ernor, and there is no question about il.
He is going to ,et Us have our own way
here. He knows it would be useless 10 90
otherwise. l believe 1 am as liberal in my
views as any man in this city. 1 have
large interests here but l am going to vote
for Stanley. I am satisfied with him. I
know him personally. Have known him
for twenty-five years. This town ought to
roll up the biggest majority ever given
Wichita man, and am going to be one
OF them help do it.
7 voted for Leedy two years ago, but I
can't vote against Stanley. I am a Demo-
crat, but before Democracy am for Wich-
ita, first, last and al 1.-The time. This city
and county Will give the banner vote, as it
ought to DO. l have met fifty men who
voted for Leedy who are for Stanley this
year, and you must remember that I
haven't got any time 10 run around finding
out how people are going to vote. If this
county don't reverse that 1,50O majority
we gave 70 Leedy 1 shall be wonderfully
mistaken IN the character of the Wichita
people. We have always stood by our
townsmen in every kind OF a proposition
and we will again. My motto is Wichita
and Stanley"

versation between Anderson and Miskel

tax payer and am not disturbing any

said: Il judge he was a. sober man. We

DR.. JOHNS LECTURE
An Eloquent Plea Against Agno-
ficiSru

The lecture of DIR. John at the First
Methodist Episcopal church last night
on the subject Did Man Make God, or
God Make Man?" was one of the most
eloquent and logical arguments ever
heard here upon any question DR.. John
is president of De Paw university, In
diana, noted for his exhaustive research
as a scholar, his terse and convincing
style as an orator.
His lecture last night was in the nature
of an answer to agnosticism as preached
by Ingersoll. He met the great question
of the agnostic, 81 don't know" with such
exhaustive and accurate proof of history
and science as would seem to leave no
room for the question in the minds of any
who heard the great doctors plea. He
met also the question of veracity applied
TO the miracles mentioned IN the scrip
lures.
His closing thought was that II man
made God, man coming from the earth
or from the dust must return simply to
that again. If God made man, the ulti-
mate destiny of man would be- his return
again TO God. The doctor was given
magnificent hearing.

lack Of water"
The Executive Board Of the Fedora
ton Of Trades Unions OF New Jersey
has resolved to urge the State Labor
Congress, which will be held in Pater-
son on August Is next, to request the
political parties at their State conven-
tions to designate the candidates for
United States Senator so that the
voters, when they vote for State Sena-
tors and Assemblymen, may express
their preference for candidate for
United States Senator. Governor Voor-
hees killed their labor bills by vetoes,
and several were killed in the Senate
and Assembly. The Executive Board
dencunces the partisan construction OF
the labor departments 4 the State. All
the members Of these boards, not some,
it declares, should be in full sympathy
with organized labor.
A general meeting OF the Cincinnati
laundry proprietors will be held in con-
ference with Father Mackey and Rev.
Mr. Robertson, when terms will be
made that, it. is believed, all the laun-
dries in the city will accept for their
employees. How the general public may
aid in the good cause is indicated In
the following: Laundry difficulties
would be greatly obviated if the public
would take their work to the laundries
on Monday or very early in the week,
so as to avoid the intolerable strain on
Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.
If the public will be careful and con-
siderate in this regard it will render a
humane and valuable service to large
body of overworked employees, mostly
women and girls, and confer no small
favor upon employers. 1t is would call
at the various laundry offices early in
the day or evening for it's work it will
relieve a large body of Office girls from
very long and oppressive hours of Ia
Dor.
The English miners demanded an in
crease of 10 per cent, and the confer
ence, which was convened to consider
this claim, embraced the area covered
by the Miners National Federation
(31S,000 mem. AS the outcome the
following suggestions were adopted, to
be laid before the owners and the
workmen in the districts in the fedora
ton area: l. That the present rate OF
wages be increased as from October l,
1898, by two and one-half per cent on
the standard, and that the wages re-
main at that rate until January 1, 1899.
2. That for period of two years from
January 1, 1898, the rate of wages shall
not be below 80 per cent above the rate
of wages of 1883 nor mere than rs per
cent above that rate 8. TIT from
January 1, 1899, to January 1, 1901, the
/ rate Of wages shall be determined by
Cancellation board within the above
named districts. 4. That the concilia-
ton board to be formed shall be on the
lines Of the Cancellation board formed
under the Rosebery agreement.
