M.H. Lee. residing six miles out from
town,cftlled Saturday and arranged for
the regular visits of the LkADkh to his
home. Mr. Lee bid adieu to old party
iffiliatiotis immediately after congress
assed the resumption of spe-
ie payment not. The men who saw
binger ahead at that elate are few in
uurnber.
Rev. In; A. lledhrook's sermon last
Sunelay niorning created a eonnnotion
in town. He hewed to t|ie line and
let the chips—well we wont say any-
more lest someone surmises that some
of them fti|l iu our yard. Suffice it to
say lie handled the newspaper men
without gloves, yet every word lie ut-
tered was true as gospel.
W. F. Faulk, residing near Eason,
passed through our city last week, en-
route to Shawnee to attend the con-
ference of the Baptist church, held at
that place last Saturday and Sunday.
A People's party club, with a member-
hip ol' 17, was recently organized in
Dist, No. J7, with Mr. Faulk as sec-
retary and Joe 'J'. Jones president.
J. P. Batten, of Fnelicptt, Neb., ac-
ompaniedTiy a friend, "whose name
we (lid not learn, arrived in our city
Monday evening. Mr. llaj,tgn is an
uncle of the Carmony brothers, who
reside northeast of town, and is here
with a view to locating. He is an
intelligent gentleman and one of the
"olel guard" in the reform movement
EmilA. Richter, traveling agent and
correspondent for six German papers
published in the territory anil Kansas
was in our city the latter part of Inst
week and in company with the genial
landlord of the Eureka, house, called
it this office. He appeiinted Mr. Harr
local correspondent for the paper pub-
lished at Oklahoma City, the pioneer,
Mr, Pool, residing some distance out
of town, called Tuesday and subscrib-
:d for the Leader to be sent to his
daughter, Miss Mary Pool, at Council
Blutfs, Icwa. Mr. Pool came across
the big pond and is onto the ways that
ire dark, of those parasites called Eng.
h Lords and ho isn't ignorant of the
loings of the American breed of para-
ites.
Last Saturday the Republican mov-
d into tlie second story of the build-
ing recently vacated by 1).J. Rod
This makes two print shops opposite
our den. It looks like a collusion,
preconcerted arrangement to double
teams oii us. Wo serve notice on the
boys right now, that if they get to cute
we'll hire the ugliest boy in town to
set on our awning and make faces
them,
II. M. Hunnel has returned from Jack
county, Texas, where he spent the win
ter, and has commenced operation
>n his Pottawatomie county farm. Mr
Bunnell says Democrats in Jack coun
j "small potatoes and few
hill.". The stand was poor nndGrover
flighted what there was, with his seig-
norage veto. Mr. Bunnell was delight
d to hear that the Populists are get
ting to the front in Pott, county.
Still they cornel Volume 1. No. 1
if the Chandler Publicist, is on otu
table. It is a seven column folio, ty
pographically neat and ably edited by
IV. 11. and Mrs. C. C. French, and at
its mast head floats the People's party
banner. Wo place it on our exchange
list, breathing the hope that the day
is not far distant when the reform
movement in every county in the tor
ritory can boast of as excellent an
organ as the Publicist.
Drury Knox, a wide awake farmer
residing a short distance northwest of
•own, called Monday and tossed ill
printer a cart wheel for which he will
recclye the Leadeii one year. It
draw us to which Mr. Knox Is most
elated over, the productiveness of Pott
county soil or the rapid growth of the
Pop partv. One alone is sufficient to
cause anyone to burn his old hat. but
lie two combined—Gee whiz! It make
i fellow feel like giving his back num-
ber socks to the poor and going bare-
foot the balance of his days.
A certain business firm in this city
rejoices in, what it states to bo a fact,
ilia! Pottawatomie county faniilie0 can
and do live on' fifty cents a week.
I'hink of people being reduced to such
• traits in a land that teems with wealth
out is short on money. Think ofa
business firm rejoicing over such a
state of affairs without apparently
thinking of the hardships these fami-
lies must undergo, but don't ask us to
publish ti firm name; wo don't want
to give them any advertising, they
have no use for Populists—wont have
the Pop paper about them—are Slier-
