Kansas regiment from the beginning

two battles since that date but has

Was writing to the Sarcoxie folks this
afternoon, sending the kids few lit

lieve you can.
In our campaign from Manila to
San Fernando, covering a period Of
about four months, experienced all
the war care to, and think it will dc
for the rest Of my life. The hard.
ships endured are these: Living on
hardtack and canned beef with black
coffee when we had a chance to make
any; marching through rice fields,
swamps and bogs, and sometimes
swimming river too deep to wade.
The sun is terribly hot during the
day and sleeping in wet muddy
clothes behind a rice-dike with Maus.
er bullets singing overhead is not
comfortable at all.
We always made our advances in
the day time and our enemy always
did their attacking at night, so you
see we were busy much Of the time.
At Caloocan received slight
wound from Remington ball, and
when we were capturing Malolos,
while running through bamboo
thicket, thorn caught my left eye
and hurt 1t severely. Aside from
those small scratches went through
the whole campaign with no serious
results, and expect to return home ai

TIPToP RESOLUTIONS.
The following resolutions were
adopted unanimously:
The Republicans of Dickinson coun-
ty in convention assembled reaffirm
the principles Of the national Repub-
lican platform Of 1896, which carried
into practice by the level-headed,
manly and progressive administra-
ton Of President Mckinley, have
made this "a good time in a good
country" and have placed this Nation
where by right it properly belongs
the leader among the powers Of the
world.
We congratulate the national ad-
ministration on its magnificent sue
cess in carrying to victory the Span
ish war after the shortest, sharpest
and most brilliant campaign known
in history, and we believe it can be
trusted to solve the great problems
growing out Of that war wisely and
well.
We extend our heartiest praise to
the Twentieth Kansas and especially
to our home boys, Company l., for
their glorious bravery on the field of
battle and hope for their safe return.
| We condemn the un-American SEN
timents Of all who are giving "aid
and comfort" to the Filipinos in their
rebellion against the American flag
Where Old Glory has been planted
There must it stay; it never yet has
retteated before an armed foe and it
LAever shall.
4 We congratulate the Republicans Of
the Nation on the advanced position
they are taking against the encroach-
ments Of the trusts made possible by
Democratic legislation, and look now
as in the past to the party Of protec.
tion and business prosperity to enact
such laws as will prevent injurious
trade combinations and enhance the
best commercial interests OF our
country.
We commend the business-like ad-
ministration Of Governor Stanley and
are proud Of his successful efforts to
lift the management OF Kansas state
institutions above the plane Of parti.
san politics.
We heartily endorse the nomina.
ton Of Judge 0. L. Moore for reelec-
tion as Judge Of the Eighth Judicial
, district. His services on the bench
have won general commendation, re-
gardless Of party. and have earned
the support Of every citizen who be-
) lieves In the impartial, unbiased and
Just administration Of law.
