J. candidate for Governor on the Prohibition ticket, spoke at the recent soldiers' reunion at Oswego in part as follows: "I would suggest that we turn our thoughts --back for a moment and note the changes in this magnificent country that have occurred within the lifetime of one generation.

"In April. 1857, 1 came up -the Missouri rhrer from Jefferson City to Kansas City on a steamboat called the Polar Star. Trains at that time were not running any farther than Jefferson City. I remained a resident of Kansas City for three years. There was an event that occurred during the fall of 1857 that I wish to mention.

It was election day in Kansas and about 80 men passed through Kansas City that morning' well mounted and armed. These men were from Clay county in Missouri and were going few miles south of Westport to Little Santa Fe in Kansas Territory to vote and that dav they assisted in electing Mobillon MeGee of Kansas City, a a member of the Kansas' Territory Legislature. McGee county, afterwards changed to Cherokee, was named after this chap. Another free state man and myself went over td Wyandotte to see what was going on over there. The polls were located about where the Banking Trust Co.

IS now located on Minnesote avenue, Kansas City, Kansas. We found the, vote being slowly polled. Soon there came in sight about 100 men similarly mounted and armed from Platte county, and each swore in his vote as a citizen of Leavenworth county, Kansas, (which then included Wyandotte county). Of course, the next Territorial Legislature was overwhelmingly pro-slavery. But these outrages were read of and commented on throughout the northern States and public sentiment against the slave power was rapidly forming.

Those mounted men did a work that day in creating public sentiment they little dreamed of. It is often said that history repeats Itself and after a lapse of 49 years we find another invasion of Kansas, this time by the brewers and wholesale liquor dealers of Missouri, who put up their immense capital, their political influence against the laws and constitution, the manhood, the womanhood and even the innocent childhood of Kansas and even defy the Governor in his capital city while his partisans hold a convention and renominate him for a second term of the same grade of loyalty, the same grade of law enforcement and the same sense of honor in regard to his oath of office and without, a word or promise of better things In the future. They adjourn to. the Copeland House, the Republican headquarters where Governor Hoch meets and greetg his partisans, with only a few feet of space and a partition between him in the office of the Copeland and the Copeland bar, where his partisans stand three lines deep waiting to be served with beer."

COMMENDS THE CAPITAL To the Editor of the Capital: I will say that the first reason I like the Capital is on account of its temperance stand in not even printing whisky advertisements. No man can be' a true church member and make a good newspaper with a full page whisky bottle for an image. I would to God that every temperate person in Kansas would refuse to take a paper containing whisky advertisements. In the second place the Capital has taken a commendable stand on the Snuare Deal question, but one thing more should be considered in this Square Deal movement, and that is the lumber question. Lumber has become so high and scarce that some action, should be taken in the United States Senate to bring about a reduction in price, as this affects all classes.

FRED MESSENGER. Roxbury, Kan. Notice P. A A. SI.

All master masons are requested to meet at the Hall of Golden Rule Lodge No. 90, 900 N. Kansas ave. at 1 o'clock this afternoon to atend the funeral pf Cyrus M. Klstler.

HALL, W. M. OBITUARY. The funeral services of the late Cyrus M. Kistler, who died yesterday morning at the home of his daughter, Mrs, Charles F.

Heartburg, at 1315 North Monroe street, will be held this afternoon at the Second Presbyterian Church at 2 o'clock and the services will be conducted by the pastor, Rev. J. S. Glenden-ning. The remains will be buried in the Rochester cemetery under the auspices of the Golden Rule Lodge No.

90. A. F. A. of which lodge he was one of the oldest members.

Mr. Klstler was born near Logansport, and was over 73 years old. He came to Kansas in 1S57 and located on a farm about three miles north of the city in 1858, on which he lived until late years. The patent to his homestead was signed by James Buohan-an1 who was President at that time. Mr.

Kistler took an active part in the struggle to make Kansas a free State. Mr. Kistler and brother, George, were participants of the. battle of the Blue. About twenty-five years ago Mr.

Kistler retired from active farm work and moved to North Topeka and engaged in the grocery business, building a store on Kansas avenue. He was one of the oldest settlers of Shawnee- county and is one of the old guard that came here in early days and have watched the progress of the country from time to time. Mr. Kistler is survived by three daughters, Mrs. Fred Tomkins of Potwin.

Danvers of Oklahoma City, who has been here several days on account of his illness. Eight Thousand Pounds for Wagon. Streets Injured by, 18,000 Pound Loads. FOR HETER INSPECTOR Council Will Consider New Office. Mayor on Legislative Committee.

It is evident that the city concil does not propose the paving, shall be, in-! jured by the hauling of heavy loads on the paved streets. An ordinance limiting loads to 8,000 pounds was passed and a resolution adopted requesting the Edison Company do its heavy hauling on its street car tacks. For some time the paved streets have been Injured by the hauling of heavy loads of coal by the Topeka Coal Company which has the contract for fur nishing the Topeka Edison Company with coal. It has had extra heavy wagons made and loads them with 18,000 or 19,000 pounds. It Is all three horses can do to pull the loads.

As a result of these heavy loads the stone block paving on Seventh street between Kan sas avenue and Van Buren street has been injured and the brick and asphalt paving has also been injured. The ordinance passed last night makes it a misdemeanor to haul, loads weighing more than 6,000 pounds on a wagon which does not have three inch tires, and more than 6,000 pounds on a wagon load with from 6.000 to 8,000 pounds. It prohibits hauling more than 8.000 on one load. The penalty is a fine of not less than $20 nor more than $300 for each offense. The police department will see that the ordinance is strictly enforced.

The resolution regarding the heavy loads was introduced by Mr. Nipps. It follows: Whereas, the heavy loads of coal hauled by the Topeka Coal Company to the Edison illuminating Company's plant on Van Buren street between Seventh street and Eighth avenue have done great damage to the brick, stone and asphalt pavements of the city Therefore, be it resolved by the mayor and city council of the city of Tope ka, that the Eidison Illuminating Com pany be and hereby is requested to make arrangements to haul coal to Us electric light plant in regular freight cars over the street railway. The railway company puts up the plea that it can not do this because It would' be compelled to do the hauling at night, and says this is an impossi bility. The matter of having a city meter inspector was brought up last night by Mr.

Swendson who said that the people were asking that some action be taken in the matter. "I have no doubt that the gas company is reading the meters right and is fair," he said, "but the people would to know and there is a resolution in the hands of a committee regarding the matter. I would like to know when the committee will make a report." Mr. Nipps stated that if there was a demand for the report the committee would attend to the matter and consider the resolution at the next meeting. Councilman Griley, chairman of he com-? mittee to inspect with the chief of the fire department the opera houses and other buildings, said the committee would go with Chief Wilmarth and inspect the New Grand at once.

The fire marshal had been so busy lately' that he had not the time. Councilman Simms introduced a resolution providing tat the salary ot the firemen be raised ten per cent. He was so pleased with the work of the firemen at the marble works fire yesterday after? noon that he took this method of showing his appreciation A resolution regulating the speed cf automobiles within the city limits to 12 miles an hour was introduced by Councilman Shimer. It was referred to the streets and walks committee. An ordinance making it a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of not less than $5 to chase, worry or kill squirrels within the city limits was passed.

The council was requested to close th alley opening into Fillmore street be tween Ninth and Tenth streets The request was referred to the streets and walks committee. A petition was received requesting the paving of Lincoln street between Seventh and Eighth streets with brick. The council was' requested to open the alley between Madison and Monroe, and Fifth and Sixth streets. According to estimates submitted by the city engineer it will cost to repaint and repair the roof of the clty hall and the Auditorium. The city clerk was instructed to advertise for bids for the work, the bids to be received before next Monday night.

An ordinance providing that people, desiring to connect property outside of a sewer district with a sewer should pay $10 was passed. In the past connections have been made without charge. This custom was unfair to the people' in the district who were taxed for the sewer. An ordinance appropraitlng to pay Interest due November 1906. was passed.

Councilman Green made a motion that the mayor be chairman of the legislative committee of five which was provided by the council at last meeting. His motion was carried.

NEW PAVEMENT TORN UP BECAUSE OF LEAKS Five-Year. Clause Does Not Prevent Water Pipes From Breaking. Two permits were issued yesterday to cut holes in the new paving on Kansas avenue in order to repair breaks in the water service pipes. One permit was issued to Warren M. Crosby and one to Sam Radges.

When the applications were made to the city engineer he refused to grant them on the ground that ail people who used city water on Kansas avenue had been notfiied to see that their pipes were in good condition, and that the city council had, passed an ordinance prohibiting the issuance of a permit for five years after the paving was laid. Mr. Crosby and Mr. Badges took the matter up with Mayor Davis and he granted, the permission, "it is unfortunate that we have cut the pavement," said the it is better to do it now than after the paving company has The company can repair the paving so that it will not show. The water pipes are leaking and the only way to stop the leaks is to take up the pavement and do 'the necessarx repairing." City Engineer McCabe was much opposed to granting a permit.

"Every property owner and tenant along Kansas avenue was notified and urged to put in new service pipe where it was needed," he said. "They-were also urged to have an Inspection made; From now on- you can expect -to- see holes "torn in the new asphalt on the excuse that there is a leak and it aeeds repairing People objected to the gas company -up the avenue to put In, new pipes and now it is evident that it was the best thing that could have- been done. The city should have had the1 same thing done with its water Sam Radges said that he thought the cause of the leaks was that extra pressure had been put on when the Crawford theater burned. "The plumbers say that such is the case' he remarked. Ornllst anil Aorlrt.

When the trusty, bearing his morning meal, unlocked the door of his cell yesterday morning, Lie wis Vaughn, -a youthful negro who has bean feigning insa.nJty for sometime, made a desperate dash for liberty, an3 was subdued only a hard struggle with Jailer Patterson and H. T.

Music, the trusty who is serving a term for manslaugiiter. The fight was all over the jail corridor and office while the criminals confined in the lower cells, many of whom knew Vaughn, and who were led by a negro named Black, who was recently found guilty of highway robbery, cheered Vaughn and cursed the officers. Vaughn was ir.ally overpowered and thrust back in his cell after assistance had been secured from the sheriff's office in the court 'house. The prisoners below who were making trouble, were ordered back to their cells by Jailer Patterson. They paid no attention to his command and when he stepped inside the cell room he was met with a volley of, flying missiles.

Fearing an attempt to escape on the part of the prisoners, who are the most desperate tharacters in the prison, Patterson drew his revolver and sent a bullet into the crowd. Although none was wounded, the shot had the desired effect and the men walked into their cells. Vaughn kept up his shouting and crying all yesterday afternoon. Two physicians who examined him declare that toe was not insane and rendered the opinion that he was simply trying, to avoid serving his sentence in the reformatory to which he was sentenced for shooting his wife. POULTRY FANCIERS WILL MEET TONIGHT There will be a meeting of poultry and pet stock fanciers of Topeka at the office of the Kansas Parmer at 7:30 o'clock tonight for the purpose of taking action relative to the proposed show to be held here in January.

A meeting of the members of the Topeka Poultry Association was held last week at which a majority of the members voted to hold a show. It is the intention to give the exhibition probably some time the latter part of January or early in February. This was 4ar4i4it tinnn in nrdpr that the State shOW at Wichita might have the proper support poultrymen over the state and lo-', cally. The plan now Is to have an not merely of poultry including pigeons, but dogs and cats, as welL lng between socialism and plutocracy. And CoL Harris is the candidate against Governor Hoch.

What feelings and recollections that fact arouses in a Populist who was on the inside of the party breastworks at the time the Legislature of 1897 was in session. During that session I was clerk of the Judiciary commit- tee of the Senate. I took the place for the sole purpose of observing legislative I methods, and studying the men In cower at that time, and forecasting the future of the party. Those of us who were really in earnest, realized that the fate of the party hung upon the work of that Legislature. "The climax was reached in the passage of the Harris railroad bill.

When it became evident that the bill would pas as it came from Senator Harris's committee, there were hundreds of little 'conferences In the State House and the expressions mode a thousand times that that was the price Senator Harris paid for a seat in the ynited States Senate. "I was one of a number called by Governor Leedy to express an opinion upon the advisability of vetoing the. bill I strongly recommended th veto. Gov ernor Leedy had many faults, but he had many virtues, and the people of Kansas ought to be magnanimous enough to do him justice The passage 0f the Harris railroad bill -was the beginning of the end of the Populist Party in Kansas. I could name scores of men to the Populist Party, who expressed the opinion, that further ef fort to bring the desired changes by a new party were in vain.

Most of them have returned ott heir old party affiliations, or found refuge in comfortable places. In private life. It is the man who made PopulUm a "business' that bong on and has ever been a unionist "I have no doubt about what the people of Kansas will do In this election. The State Is keening step with the national administration. The great mass af voters of Kansas have the courage to do the right when tbev see It.

I for od can se no reason why the Fooulist of the old day should cast a vote for Senator Harris, for he. rtor thn any ten men tn tn 8tt--xepi the tlntd Dercrt! attorney for the Missouri Pwctfc Pllw romjMnr. who was evr-the tedft friend of the Senatorilld the work that finish the prmnfft rrty.
