The licit Crop. We talked yesterday with a largo num ber of farmers from different parts of the county who were in the city. Every one of them assured us upon his honor that ho had the biggest crop of oats and the finest corn of any man in his neigh borhood. Attorney General. Mr.

He is a most pleasant gentleman, and has a fine reputation as a lawyer, and will un doubtedly make a strong candidate, and if nominated will fill the oflico with honor to the state and the Republican party. Commemlnble Liberality. Mr. F. Neal, one of our most influ ential and wealthy citizens has recently made tho Baptist church in this city a present that can not fail to be appreciated.

The gift in question consists of a neat house and lot on South F. street, at present occupied by Bov. B. F. Tabor, tho pastor and will bo used from this time on as a parsonage.

Mr. Ncal's lib erality to the church of his choice is cer tainly most commendable and he doubtless realizes that so far as theconscious-ness of contributing to a worthy cause is concerned, that it is indeed more blessed to give than to receive. Uood For 13,000. Thoro is bnt little limit to the big ma jority the Republicans and all well posted Democrats of Indiana figure their state will give for Harrison and Morton next November. Tho very smallest figure put by those who know the state of public feeling and sentiment ot tho, Hoosier state is 15,000.

The Indiana papers are filled with column after column of the views of prominent men of the state who have always worked for, and voted with, tho Democratic party, but who now declare their intentention to vote for the Republican candidates. There has never been, in the history of the state, such a complete political revolution. J. W. IlanRhey.

Thc'edo, (111.,) Record speaks of a ratification meeting held 'n that city last Saturday evening, at which was present Mr. J. W. Haughcy, of Wellington, who was in Alcdo visiting the friends of his boyhood days. Tho Rec ord has this to say; 'John Haughcy, of Wellington, Kan sas, now on a visit to Alcdo, being pros ont, was callod out and spoko for neaily an hour reviewing the political situation He told why ho was a Republican, spoke of the soldiers, their hardships, trials, impaired constitution, ill health, pover ty, tho wholcsalo use of tho veto power to defeat soldiers tensions, nnd said they must now look out for themselves; they no longer had tho Black Eaglo, of Illinois, to fight their battles in tho halls of congress.

Ho turned to the tariff, showed that the treasury was empty when tho tar'f wont into operation, the government unable to pay the interest on the national debt or the soldiers battling for tho life of the nation, and all branches of business wero stagnant. Tho issue was protectiou or free trado; the Mills bill meant frco trade; it mount tho depiction of tho treasury, tho ruin of our manufacturing establishments, tho enforced idleness of tho operators, the financial distress which prevailed every where prior to tho introduction of pro tection 'n 18(51-2. Tho remarks of Mr. Haughcy wcro to tho point, they struck tho key-note, and Bomo of his hits wore recoived with rapturous applause, Cuin. The man who wants to gnin prominence just now can do it cosdy by for-Baking one of tho old parties and clinging to tho other ono.

It is stated that Allen G. Thurman owns a tract of land In Butler county, Kansas. It's a cold day when Kansas fails to make a score ot some kind. Young men who wish to secure a place where they can riso rapidly should cither go to work in a powder mill or get a job as elevator boy in some first class hotel. With sovon presidential tickets in the field the people of this glorious country should certainly be able to exercise their prerogative in a manner satisfactory to themselves.

ft The Hutchinson News is inclined toward the opinion that a man who thinks there is a possibility for KanHtis going Democratic this tall is a humorist. We think he is a fool. The question of how torcduco tho sur plus will not bother the people of this country much longer if the Democratic party are to remain in power. There wouldn't be any surplus to reduce. ft The Wmfiold Courier's editorial column is always filled with spicy para graphs.

Inking into consideration, however, the class of exchanges with which the Courier is blessed this is not to bo wondered at. Bob Ingersol is credited with having said: "I want this republic substantially independent of tho rest of the world." A great many other men are wanting it just now, too, but in a differ ent way from" what the speech would imply. ft ft The Winfield Visitor's Foot Pad goes on tho assumption that where ever he seos a head he ought to hit Nunc. Deponds on where tho head is. If seen where it does not belong, Foot Pad is hoard from.

Visitor. ft ft The cowardly shooting of Mayor Kcn-yon and Judge Furry at Cjuda Springs on tho 4th of July hns arroused much feeling against the illegal disiK-nsei-R of prohibited intoxicants in that part of the county, and it is to ba hoiicd that the violators of the low will be summarily dealt with. Tho state of Now York has passed a law substituting electricity for the rope, Tho gentlemanly and honored murder er will now, we presume, lx driven to the place of execution in a couch-niid-four and after carefully adjust his necktie and addressing a few humorous remarks to tho assembly, will touch an electric button and be paiul(ssy transferred to the realms of the sweet beyond. Nico, aiut it? ft At the Detroit and Milwar'tee depot yestarday a knot of waiting passeiiKers wero talking politics, when a young man with a crape band on his white hut came up and said: "Whar" was Harmosan? Yes, sir, whar' was he?" "What do you mean?" asked one. 'I mean that the Republican party nominated Harmason at Chicugo.

He is a good man. Victory will perch upon his banner. Bet you $10 victory 'l." Do you mean Harrison?" "Yes, sir, I mean Harrison. Mun says I don't mean Harrington lies! Good man. Victory will perch.

'Rah t'r Lincoln and McClellan!" Detroit Free Press. A PIUoui Calamity. The boy stood on the back-y ard fence whence all but him had fled, the flames that lit his father's barn shono just above the shed. Ono bunch of crackers in his hand, two others in his hat, villi piteous accents loud ho cried, "I never thought ot that." A bunch ol crackers to the tail ol one small dog ho'd tied; that dog in anguish sought the barn and mid its ruins died. Tho sparks flow wide and red and hot, they lit uon that brat, they fired tho crackers in his hand eke those in his hat.

Then camo a burst of rattling sound the boy! Whcro was he gone? Ask ol the winds that tar around strewed bits ol meat and bono, and scraps ol clothes and balls and tops and nails and hooks and yarn, the relics ol the dreadful boy that burned hla father's barn; Prompt und courle- Til 13 CITY 0F FRANK E.

Haughey, who has just returned homo from a visit to Iowa and Illinois, informs our reporter that the heavy rain storm which visited those states on July 4th, damaged the oat crop to such au extent that thousands and thousands of acres will bo almost a total loss.

When Senator Ingalls delivered his fa moiis Abilene speech on woman snn'rngi a year ngo be stated that in one seiiHo negro suffrage bad been a failure.

That tho vote of the colored man had been almost totally suppressed in certain southern states, and at the same time the roliels were counting them in obtaining increased congressional representation. The total vote of Oregon this year a little exceeds (50,000. This is tin; nnmber of persons voting in tho election of tho single memlier of cong.iess for one state. Georgia hns ten representatives in the present congress. The total vote Cast for these ten members was 800, and but 1,950 votes were recorded against them.

Kansas sends seven representatives to congress, with 51,971 votes. Mississippi sends tho same numlier, with votes. In South Carolina, AJn.haina and other southern states the conditions are about the same as in Georgia and Mississippi. In other words, says tho Oregonian, the south gets its representation in congress and in tho electoral college on the basis of a large population whoso vote is suppressed, coerced or thrown out of tho count. Thus 153 in the electoral college arc assured to the Democratic party without another effort than that required to write the certificate of election.

Forty-eight more in tho north would give Cleveland another term. In tho Louisiana election in April last tho governor issued orders to force or fabricate Democratic majorities, and when Ingalls in tho senate denounced the astounding spurious majority that was produced, Senator Eustis arose and insolently told him, 'It's none of your That is, the South, by ballot box, steals thirty-eight additional members of congress, and imposes a 'fore quarter of Democratic beef, on tho coun try for president. Tho northern Democracy is thus able to concentrate its whole efforts on three or four northern states in every national contest, and yet in the language of Senator Eust is, of Louisiana, 'It's none of your business' whether tho sovereign staleof Louisiana Bteals nn election or robs the ballot box.
