A fragmented Kansas era column surveys prohibition, resubmission, and political feuds, praising Wichita's enduring central role. It references Topeka politics, trust battles in Illinois, Italy's Abysinia protectorate, and local flood of opinions, ending with Wichita's claimed unshakable future.
A noisy Kansas debate mocks Resubmission with claims of political bluff. Editors, judges, and Republican leaders clash over prohibition and enforcement, while figures like Sol Miller and Noble Prentis are cited amid sharp attacks on hypocrisy and factional tactics.
A Kansas reader notes skepticism of the resubmission movement while The West and the Speaker Ship debate centers on an aggressive Western position in the Republican contest for the speakership. The Philadelphia Bulletin argues the West fields four candidates, labels the East as dominant, and cites twenty five years of sectional balance. It contends the real strength lies in Western figures like Keifer and Colfax, challenging claims of Western factionalism.
A fragmented notice outlines the death of notable figures including Lincoln McGlellan and Pendleton, hints at political upheaval, and recalls a bizarre election era. It describes a week of accidents in Barber county, with a wagon crash injuring a lady and a rider hurt, plus a horse incident and nearby Creek crossing hazards. It also notes a Santa Fe and Rock Island freight alignment and a political commentary on a Kentucky figure's death-tinged missed Russian mission.
The passage details luxurious fabrics, lace, and porcelain in an ornate dining and tea service. It highlights floral patterns, embroidered covers, and damask cloths, noting German, Mexican, and Chinese influences, plus decorative bows and nymph gravure motifs. The vivid decor emphasizes beauty and craftsmanship of the wares and textiles.
