It was evident to every impartial observer that Benedict skinned Shinn at the recent debate at the Pleasant Hill school house. The people of this vicinity were much surprised to hear the Rev" Shinn make the same political speech that G. II. Anthony has been saying to the people all the fall. The speakers at the late debate at Pleasant Hill widely differed about the reading of the Constitution of the United States.

Shinn states there is a clause that reads thus: "Congress shall have the power to emit bills of credit." Beuedict says there is no such clause. Benedict is right. Ed. Woven wire matresses at Vassar dinger's. 40-tf Duck Creek Items.

Cantrell, Sec'y. 5Ir. Cowgill has had two terms as Register, and has thriveu and prospered while holding it. None of his predecessors have done half a well while in oflice. When Jlr.

Paulen was running as the Republican nominee two years ago, Cowgill's supporters raised the cry that Paulen was a banker and money loaner, and Paulen lost scores of votes by it. Cowgill was even then twice as well off as Paulen, and is now himself a money loaner. Blakeslee is a public-spirited, enterprising citizen a man who voluntarily labors for, and contributes to every worthy public en terprise, anil a more unselfish man cannot be found in Wilson county. He is always ready to take hold of any measure that will promote the welfare of a community or the people at large. If elected we venture to say he won't ask for more than two terms.

He'll never become a court house rat. An eastern newspaper in speaking of the work that the Kansas newspapers have done, says "Kansas newspapers have done much more than anything else to create the good name the State lias abroad. The immense rush of immigration from the eastern States is due to newspapers. A great many people do not fully appreciate the benefit derived from local papers, and are inclined to think that tiie money paid out for their support is a kind of charity. It is nothing of the kind it is the most paying investment a business man can make to advertise his business and community." J.

D. Brown has purchased the Altoona flouring mill and will hereafter operate it. He has had it repaired in various ways and proposes to spare no effort to conduct it successfully and to the satisfaction of all patrons. Mr. Brown has clung to the willows with commendable tenacity; and now that he is on favorable footing and knows where he stands, he will doubtless be able to establish a good business and prosper.

We hope to hear of his receiving substantial encouragement in the way of liberal patronage from the public. Walter P. Clark and Henry Brown, of Clifton township, were in town this week. They say Clifton will give the straight Republican ticket a good majority this fall that the feeling prevails everywhere that the ticket is a strong anil worthy one, and that Republicans see the necessity of voting for their own candidates if they would maintain the prestige of the party. Some bolting Republicans are sowing the wind this fall, and may reap the whirlwind in the future, when they would prefer calmness and harmony.

Bolters establish a precedent which others may use as an excuse to follow, when matters are reversed. We are reminded in this connection of the old saw which says something about chickens coming home to roost. Isaac Dean, the nominee of the so-called Greenback convention for County Surveyor, has always been a true-blue Republican and is still one. He says he would have taken some pride in the nomination had it come from his own party, but coming from the opposition he feels differently. And that's what some people call "a Greenback ticket!

Marshal Short on Wednesday night arrested the character known as "Sal" and a couple of men, on a charge of attempting to outrage the person of a twelve-year-old girl, who it is claimed is "Sal's" daughter. The woman and two men, in an examination before Esq.

Wiley yesterday morning, were fined $5.00 and costs each. Dr. Blakeslee is an educated gentleman, of the most agreeable manners and popular "style," and he is well fitted to successfully discharge the duties of the office of Register of Deeds. If elected he will move to the county seat and fill the office, reports to the contrary notwithstanding. New Postoffices.

The Russell boys are running their threshing machine now that the weather has become "civilized" again. C. B. Jackson will leave next week for Missouri, to bring hither his sister, Mrs. Anderson, to spend the winter.

Our voters should remember that as Fall River township goes this fall, so goes Wilson comity. "A word to the wise," etc. Miss Hattie Aul will leave soon for Missouri, to reside with her parents. Miss Hattie is a young lady of sterling qualities and will be sadly missed. If you want to see a Fall River Democrat look serious, ask him how he is going to vote this fall.

Better not do it though unless you are well armed. Anthony Bivens and Miss Eva Coulter were married not long since. In their voyage down life's dim and changing way may they have smooth sailing. Divine service is conducted by Charles Mitchell every two weeks at "Taller Oh excuse me. "District forty pardon please; Mt.

Zion we mean. The Secret. Of course it is a source of wonder to many why the Democrats endorsed the G. B. nominees.

The answer is very simple. The Democrats in the first place are controlled, manipulated and represented by a few men in Fredonia. These "few" desire above all things else to elect a Sheriff and keep the Register in office. These two with the County Attorney, would make three of the most important offices in the county filled by Democrats. The "few" therefore, by the aid of some unprincipled, pretended Greenbackers, got their Democratic candidates foisted on to the Greenbackers as nominees of the so-called G.

B. convention. By this trick they expect to catch the Greenback vote for them. Under such circumstances it wouldn't he safe to put up straight Democratic candidates, for fear souk; fool Democrats wouldn't understand the situation, and the vote would be divided. So they "endorsed" the Greenback ticket after making it up for the G.

to nominate Rev. C. J. Adams will preach his final sermon in Fredonia next Sabbath evening at the Congregational church. The early part of next week he will move to Winfield, where Mrs.

Adams will remain, while Mr. A. goes East to seek a new field and a new home. In departing from Fredonia, Rev. Adams will leave a community that entertains for him both respect and affection, and he will be attended by their sincere well-wishes.

It is a matter of deep and general regret that Mr. Adams has decided to go elsewhere. He is a man of the most charitable impulses and noble sentiments, steadfast and true to his convictions and faithful to the principles and teachings of the lofty cause he labors in and by his moving away Fredonia will lose a minister whose place cannot be easily filled. The position in which honest and sincere Republican-Greenbackers are placed in the pending county election is a peculiar one. They are asked to vote for a Democrat for Sheriff; a Democrat for Register of Deeds; a Republican for Treasurer, who would have preferred a nomi lation at the hands of the Republican convention, but could not get it; a Republican for County Surveyor and all for what? For the mere possibility of electing as County Clerk a man who claims to be a Greenbacker but cannot tell the difference between Republicans, Democrats and Greenbackers; a man who is incompetent to do the work of the office, if he should be elected.

Artful Dodger. Some time since a man named Johnson was fined for drunk and disorderly conduct, and went with the Marshal to a store where he expected to get the money with which to liquidate. In the store he gave the officer the slip and has kept out of the way since until yesterday, when the Marshal caught sight of him and gave chase. Johnson struck out south, and meeting a man he hurriedly inquired, "How far is it to the edge of the corporation Marshal Short, borrowing a horse from a passer-by, overhauled the runaway just on the "edge of the corporation" and brought him to town, when he paid up and was released. No wheat buyer in Wilson county has paid better, if as good, prices for wheat as Dr.

Blakeslee, and the farmers will substantiate this statement. He has never "pooled" with anybody. How does he compare with Cowgill, who loans money and has sought to combine with other agents in keeping up high rates of commission on loans? Which is the least selfish of the two? Which the most' truly a friend of the farmer? Pardon. The petition to Gov. St.

John, asking lor the pardon of Kobt. Niblack, convicted at the last term of the District Court for this county, has been generally signed by the people in and about Guilford, where Xiblack lived. If the facts are according the representations of good men who have known Niblack a long time, there is much to induce any one to sign a petition for his reprieve. Mr. Cowgill has been twice elected Register of Deeds by the aid of Republican votes," and ought to be eoutent.

Two terms ought to satisfy him, an'-how. Xo man has ever been elected more than two terms in this county to as good a paying office as that of Register a half dozen years past. It ought not to take an old soldier long to decide whom he prefers for Register of Deeds Dr. Blakeslee, the Republican nominee, or Cowgill, the candidate on the ring-tail ticket. Blakeslee went into the Avar at its breaking out in 1SG1, and served until its close, participating in the last battle, the taking of Spanish Fort and Fort Blake-ly, at Mobile.

Many old soldiers in Wilson county can testify to numerous favors and acts of kindness from Dr. Blakeslee because they had been soldiers and suffered wounds received while in the service. A man of more generous feeling and warm appreciation for the blue-coated troopers, never ran for an ollice in Wilson county; and no citizen of this county entertains more reverence, and love, and pride for the cause in behalf of which they fought, than the Republican candidate for Register of Deeds. Can any of the friends of Mr. Cowgill truly say as much for him? Can they say he ever gave aid or sympathy during the war or since to anything that represented or stood up for the blue? Hundreds of soldiers have doubtless voted for Cowgill in the past and thereby elected him to a good oflice two terms, lie ought to be satisfied, and they ought to now vote for Blakeslee, a man who was with them, but has never before been in a position where they could give him a boost.

Fire and Robbery. A man by the name of Collins has been boarding at the City Hotel for some time. Wednesday evening he took a stranger to the hotel with him, and said he was trying to break him of drinking. In reality, he was getting the man drunk, and at bed-time they both retired to Collins' room. At about 12 o'clock some other boarders in the house discovered that the building was on lire, and raised an alarm.

Going into Collins' room, it was found to be iu flames. Mr. Gwin, the proprietor, promptly smothered the flames with a blanket, and all the appearances indicated that Collins had placed a lighted caudle in the bowl of a lamp, taken the stranger's money and decamped. The stranger's valise had been opened. If the lire had not been discovered for ten minutes later, the man who was to have been cured of drinking would have been, and that effectually, too.

Nothing has been seen of Collins. Mr. Tattle, the Republican nominee for County Clerk, is a gentleman in every particular, and one in every way entitled to the support and confidence of the people of Wilson count', irrespective of party. He lias had an experience in book-keeping and in business pursuits which make him well qualified for the ollice. Industrious, temperate anil upright, he would discharge the duties of the position of County Clerk faithfully and promptly, and so demean himself in all respects as to merit and receive the approval and good will of every citizen who appreciates the qualities of true manhood.

From Coi.okado. D. L. Stafford, formerly of Talleyrand township, who went to Colorado last spring, makes a remittance of $2.00 for the Citizen, and in his letter notes the following "personals:" "Jot King and family passed Rosita on the 13th, enroute for their old home in Xeodesha township. Capt.

Chitwood and family seem to be happy, living two miles from Rosita. G. W. Laudreth is keeping store at Bassickville. Mat.

Gilbert resides at Trinidad. J. M. Gilbert is atRosita and has an interest in one or two very good Tom Mcintosh has always been a Republican, and never compromised his political convictions for the chances of oflice. He is true grit in this respect, but is clever and accommodating withal, lie is an old soldier, serving during the war in the Fifteenth Kansas Cavalry, and carries with him the permanent scar of a wound received at the battle of Westport, Missouri.

Hence Tom is a true-blue Republican, and will receive the cordial and hearty support of hundreds of those who carried the sabre or musket, for re-election as Sheriff. Personal. Gen. Dornblaser got home Wednesday, after an absence of several months with the surveying corps of the St. Louis, Wichita Western railroad.

He has, in fact, been iu the employ of the railroad company since early last spring, and has been one of its most useful and trusted engineers. Yesterday Mr. Dornblaser started to Georgetown, Colorado, in response to repeated calls, to take a job of engineering that will last until the severity of winter interferes. It looks ominous to see Mr. Coy and his supporters making such prodigious efforts to get control of the County Treasurer's ofiice.

Xo candidate, for that ofUce, nor the backers of a candidate, ever before made such a struggle for success. Harry Jenner is a safe man. He is competent, faithful and scrupulously honest, and is deserving of a second term. W. 0.

Ilartshorne, of Thayer, who went to Colorado last spring, passed through town Wednesday on his return home from the West. He gave the Citizen a call and left a bottle of soda watei from the famous mineral springs at Canon City. Mr. II. had in his wagon a black-tailed fawn which he was taking home for a pet.

One of the most profoundly happy men we have met since the late Ohio election is Andy Unlit, of Guilford, who was in town Tuesday. The election in the Buckeye State pleased him more than any political reflilt since the election of Abraham Lincoln in 18C0..
