What has become of our Harrison and Morton club? It seems as though all interest has been lost and the cause forsaken, if the republicans of our city cannot stir up enough enthusiasm or patriotic feelings to attend these meetings, they should not own to a membership of such an organization. Next Friday night is the regular meeting night, and we hope to see a large crowd iu attendance, The Seward County Democrat claims that when Hon. W.

H. Pay, the republican nominee for representative, was editor of the Macon Press, a "scurrilous republican sheet," published at Macon, he advocated hanging every democrat that was guilty of stealing a hoi se. It is evident that Mr. Pay did not accomplish what he considered justice, ns there are several democraes still living in Missouri. A certain individual in this city who runs a cert urn stage line from this place to a certain point south of here, committed a case of forgery here, one day this week.

By the request of some of his friends we refrain from mentioning his name or the particulars of the case, as it has been satisfactorily settled to thepnr ties concerned iu the matter, but a repetition of the case, will cause full particulars to appear in the Chronicle. E. D. Steen, of Danville, Illinois, traveling agent of the C. B.

Q. R. was in our city this week, looking after his interests. Mr, Steen proposes erecting a brick building two doors north of the Star Grocery on Kansas avenue, two stories high, 24x80, providing he can secure the rent of the building for a reasonable length of time. The rent will be secured and the building erected as soon as the material can be got on the ground.

This is about the manner and conversation that only lambert" will be greeted with, when he knocks for admittance at the heavenly throne: St. Peter. "Who is this?" Lambert, very important. "It is the publisher oldest newspaper in Liberal." St. Peter.

"That's all very good, sir, but may I ask the name of your paper?" Lambert, very indignant. "Why, the lbader, of course." St. Peter. "What! that smeared up mugwumpsheet? Here.Satan.takehim." When the county central committee comes to settling its advertising bills, it may look for as large, if not a larger account from this office, than any other in the county. We have thu far, and expect in the future, to work with all our power for the election of the republican county ticket, and while we do this, as ia the past, the Arkalon News will set back with a sealed mouth waiting for the candidates to come around and replenish its purse with a little of the "filthy." The News will say nothing, and even on matters of such importance, but what it expects pay for.

The Seward County Democrat has been removed to the upper floor of the Witt building on Washington avenue. Its editor had possibly heard that Mur-ry Myers contemplated another trip to Stevens county, and "Stripper" thought it best to be so situated as to barricade his sanctum so the General would not have an opportunity to eat that famous letter. 1 Taking the leader for our authority, the people of our city are in a bad way for home newspapers. He says the respectable people of our city will not read the Chronicle because of the many vulgar expressions used in its columns each week. These same people have only the Democrat left then to peruse each week, as it is impossible to read the leader as it is so bungled and botched up by its printer, dear lambert himself.
