Editor Tribune: At a meeting of the ministers of the city, Monday morn October 24 th, 1892, the following address to the voters, was unanimously adopted Whereas, The legislature at its last session, the manner provided in the constitution, submitted to the electors of the state a proposition to hold a constitutional convention to revise, amend or change the constitution; aDd provided that the electors should vote for or against the proposition at our general election of the present year. And Whereas, Three main reasons were assigned for the holding of such a convention, viz; First, there should "be a change of the judiciary article 6f line over the rock of "good fellow- full of misrepresentations concerning riNAL SETTLEMENT. shin," falling into the slough of "social relations" and so on ad libitum any this law will be scattered broadcast, and in every way possible Kansas All parties are herebv notified that the thing to catch the big hearted, good will be turned into a terrible battle undersigned will present her aooounts to the probate court of Bourbon county Kansas, and maKe final settlement as Administratrix of the estate of Enoch Grant, de natured Democrats, who are too often ready to forget duty and chase off af ceased, on the 22d day of Njvember, 1892, field, and such strife as has not been seen 'since the days of the rebellion will come to our otherwise peaceful ter sentiment. ana wi(f asK lor an allowance lor attorney's fees and for compensation for services ren' dered.

tir to distrust on account of its hypocrisy deceit and political dishonesty. A plain example of what scratching ticket will do can be Been in the election of last fall, where the majori tocfe and! FMire ties of the Republicans elected In this county ran from seventy-five to 600 this big discrepancy is the result if our "neighborly politics," nothing more or less Two years ago we out voted the Re Of ttL publicans in Bourbon county on coun- surveyor (a candidate by the way, that made on the part of the Republi cans, no special plea on account of any of his "relations" with us) 376 votes we have these votes here to stitution prohibiting the manufacture and sale of intoxicating iiquors except for medical, scientific and mechanical purposes. And Whereas, Granting that the two first reasons for a constitutional convention are valid and a change is needed, we have a plain and inexpensive remedy; without the ititerven- tion of a very expensive constitutional convention, viz: "That propositions for the amendment of the constitu-tion may be made by either branch of the legislature, and if two-thirds of all the members elected to each house shall concur therein such proposed amendment, together with yeas and nays, shall be entered upon the Journal and the secretary of state shall cause the same to be published for three months preceding the next general election for representatives at which time the same shall be submit-to the electors for their approval or rejection and if a majority of the electors on said amendment at said elestion shall adopt the amendment the same shall become a part of the constitution." And Whereas, Such propositions have been submitted to the state and have been approved or rejected by the state easily and without expense, therefore Resolved, We deem it advisable that the vote should be in the negative, for the the following reasons First. The expense. In a recent article in the Central Christian Advocate, October 12th, 1892, it is stated that the cost of such conventions in other states where they have been held is as follows: Illinois, Kentucky, $211,404.28 Ohio, in round loons Oil day and they will be here on the 8th 1 November.

Who does not know that If now the delegates were being elected to the constitutional convention, the one great question would be, "Are you in favor of or opposed to the prohibition of the manufacture and sale of intoxication liquors in our state And men would be elected or defeated on this one issue. Would it be safe Would it be wise? Therefore, fellow citizens, we have thought advisable to ask you to consider the question, and when on elecr tion day you cast your ballo', see that it reads "Against the Constitutional amendment." One word of warning. Beware- of printed, tickets that have only "For the Constitutional Convention" on them.

We are your fellow citizens in the interest of our fair state. J. E. Brant, P. E.
