mouth disease, now raging among the cat
tie of Woodson county, seems to nave at
tracted the attention of the people to aD
alarming extent all over Kansas and even
in the adjoining States. Correspondence
and kilograms are constantly pouring in
upon Gov. Click, making inquiries regard
ing the nature of the disease and what is
being lone to stamp it out and prevent its
further spread. Several requests come
from citizens of different parts Of the
State making the Governor call a session
of the Legislature; but that is not likely
to be done. In the first place, notice
would have to be given and there are sew
eral vacancies in the list Of Representa-
tives and Senators that ought to be filled.
A telegram received from Hon, E. H. Fen
ton, Congressman-elect, stated that he is
ON the ground and recommends the Legis-
lature to be called at once. A great many
surgeons throughout the country are send
ing remedies which they warrant as being
sure and effectual cures. The Governor
and several other parties will leave for the
diseased districts on a special train to-day.

papers on file in his department touching
the character of Charles S. Garfield and
w. B. Moore who are expected to be called

obtain them, copies could be procured
from the department hereafter. U. H.

correspondents at which the resolution OF
