Ex-Governor Robinson came down from Lawrence last Friday. The governor is in favor of uniting the entire opposition to the republican party and wiping it out of existence in Kansas.

A. R. proceedings last Friday with big flaming badges and tried to "work" the gate that is to get in free on the strength of their organization.

J. C. Stewart, carried the mail last Monday for the last time. July 1st the contract pa3sed into other hands. The man who takes Mr.

Stewart's place was refused the postmastership at Centro polis because there were inditements against him for selling liquor, but they have put him in a more responsible position than that of a little post-office.

No charges at the gate. By Order of Committee. Last Thursday gentleman George T. Anthony telegraphed Russel A. Alger who was at Winfield, to go to Kansas City and come back on Friday noon train so that he and Curly Har rison could receive him with the beat ing of tom-toms and a great flourish of trumpets.

Russel couldn't see the ob ject in riding all night on a railroad train for the sole purpose of being "re ceived" so ne ignored Anthony's tele gram and came in on the four o'clock train from the south, went to the hotel and went to bed like any other sensible man would. A new counterft-it ten cent piece is in circulation which so closely resem bles the genuine that it can easily be passed. It differs, from the usual counterfeit in that a genuine silver plating covers the German silver which forms the body of the coin. This gives it a ring very nearly like that of good money, and also does awav with the greasy feeling by which counterfeits are detected. The coin bears the date of 1887.

The milling is not so deep on the counterfeit and the edges are much sharper than those of a genuine dime. Missouri Pacific road and moved his family to Osawatomie yesterday, the end of his run.

Yesterday morning about ten o'clock it was discovered that the agents of a wholesale liquor house in Kansas City was about to transport their goods from the depot to the room on Main street and open up. In pursuance to an arrangement previously made, the M. E. church bell was rung and the citizens turned out enmass to combat the arrangements and prevent the opening of an original package house in this city.

Rather a warm discussion ensued for a few minutes between some of our citizens and the package agents and Joe Mathias in the rear of the building which was interrupted by the advent of Sam Hogan's one horse wagon loaded with the stuff. The horse was unhitched, the wagon backed, turned about and started in the direction of the Santa Fe depot, but when it got just out of the alley one wheel broke down and the boxes were transferred into J. T. Black's wagon and taken to the depot and billed to the consignor at Kansas City in Geo. T.

Anthony's name who paid the freight. Two of the package men and their attorney, J. W. De-ford, took the 3:15 train for Kansas City, while the others (one oi more) remained in the city. These are about the facts in the case, briefly stated.

What will follow is unknown, but it is evident matters are not settled yet. There is a firm determination on the part of the citizens of Ottawa that the package house shall not open in this city and it is our hope that none will be opened.

Ex-Gov. Robinson took the whole very good naturdly. Republican. Ex-Gov. Glick came to Ottawa solely to call on Ex-President Hayes.

Having been raised boys together these two distinguished gentlemen had a very pleasant visit together at the hotel, took the same carriage for the park and the ex-president insisted upon the ex-governor taking the platform with him. This excited the gan-greenous jealousy of the stony- hearted Anthony, who penned the above, out of spite, malice and hatred for any man who cairies respect and who is honored more highly than himself. Ex-Gov. Glick does not force himself into prominence nor does he make a consumate ass of himself every time he appears in public, as does a certain ex-governor well known in this city and who inflects himself upon this county Oiry (Soodls -AND- CLOTHING if you are looking for Shoddy or Trash This is not the place you should look. 18 'If ears Of experience in furnishing goods to the people ol franklin County has taught us that fact.
