Near Montour, Ia, is an Indian reser.
walton, where large number Of the Sac

day their annuity was paid. Fifteen
thousand dollars in gold WAS distributed,
each member Of the tribe receiving Ell.
actly $3.50 A. his or her share. In
order to avoid the trouble Of making
change proposition was made to some
OF the chiefs to pay them $40 and for
them to return the odd penny. This
they refused to do They are exceed.
iagly suspicious Of the Government
agents and demanded the exact change.
The suspicion seems to DO mutual, for
the agent, instead Of paying out the
money, gave each Indian check, after
which he was escorted to bank, whore
the exact change was handed to him.
This was done to prevent the willy Indi.
an from getting two annuities the strong
family resemblance making that trick

HIS PUBLIC SERVICES IN KANsAa.
It was quite impossible that gentle
man of such activity and general adapt-
ability to public service should long re-
main in obscurity, and in few years
his local prominence led his fellow citi-
zens to call upon him to fill position Of
greater responsibility. In 1876 he was
nominated and after an enthusiastic
campaign in his behalf, was duly elected
to the lower house of the Kansas leeisla-
ture, on the republican ticket. Here he
at once rose to prominence and his splen-
did abilities were recognized by his
colleagues, and he was appointed upon
some Of the most important committees
of the house. This confidence was not
misplaced, and he proved himself ono Of
the hardest working and most useful
members of that body.
In 1877 vacancy occur ID in the Of
fee of lieutenant governor of the state,
and the state republican central commit
tee, after looking carefully over the
ground for the best and most available
material, selected L. q. Eumph-
rey "a the proper man
to fill the vacancy, and in the place
he discharged the duties with such dis
tinguished credit and ability that he be-
came conspicuous figure before the en-
tire state. In 1878 he was nominated,
practically without opposition, for the sue
ceeding full term, and was elected by
the full strength Of the party, receiving
square majority of 4O,6S5. As still
stronger proof of bis hold upon the con-
fidence and esteem of his constituency,
he was returned to the state senate i'm
lrediately upon the expiration of his
term as lieutenant governor. Upon the
floor of the senate he has been one of the
most conspicuous members, logical de-
batter, ready speaker, an energetic
worker. He never occupied the time or
attention of the senate unless he had
something of general interest to say, and
he was always listened TO with respect
and consideration.

such good anti-ssloon work in that city,

of Seneca, the nominee for lieutenant gov
ernor, known all over Iowa and Kansas as
candy Felt" is one of the most popular
and best known of the latter day statesmen
of Kansas. He was born in Ontario county,
New York, December 81, 1888, and conse-
quently is in his fifty fifth year. Until his
fifteenth year he worked on the farm and
attended the district school. After that he
taught school and thus earned the necessary
money to complete an academic education
at Hamilton academy, New York, after
which he came to Iowa where he taught
school until the firing on Sumpter, when he
enlisted and served faithfully in the
ranks unit! taken prisoner at Belmont, Mo-,
from where he was taken to Libby prison
and enjoyed the hospitality of that institu-
ton for eleven months and twenty days.
when broken in health by starvation and
sickness he was parolled and sent to the
Annapolis, Nd, hospital, where he remained
three months and was finally discharged at
Corinth, Miss. He then returned to Iowa
and the balance of his life has been mostly
spent IN the profession of journalism.
In 1880 he removed to Seneca and pur-
chased the Seneca Tribune, which soon took
leading place among the weekly newspa-
pers of the state.
Four years ago Mr.. Felt was nominated
and elected as one of the republican presi-
dental electors of Kansas, and during that
Morrill,, member of congress-, spoke in
nearly every township in the First congress
sional district.
In 1885 Governor Martin appointed him a
member of the state board of pardons,
which position he now fills.
As campaign speaker Mr.. Felt has no
superior in the state. Quick, witty and
logical, he captivates his audiences and
makes his points so clearly as to silence OPP
position; while as an officer he is painstak-
ing, diligent and method cal, and in the new
field of official duties to which he will be
elected in November we predict for him un-
bounded success.

the good suggestion that manufactur-

democratic policy of breaking down the
tariff system, should put up Harrison

inspiring effect. Every such flag would

When prize fighters and fast horses we're
put in contest years ago, they were stuffed
with alcohol to give them vim. Since the
Injurious effects of stimulants became
known, it has been almost any kind of di-

Late years, the diet has been mostly rice,
mutton, potatoes, potato yeast bread, and

athlete, pedestrian, fast horse, or over
worked person in our large cities now, that
does not use the latter almost continually.

warks of the state. He was married in
1872 to Miss Amanda Leonard, Of
Beardstown, Illinois. and is peculiarly
blessed in ali his domestic relations. His
family consists of two bright boys, who
are as thoroughly Kansan as it is posi-
BILE to become, and his aged mother who,
at an advanced age, is still in posses
sion of all her faculties, able to read ex-
tensively, talk politics, and demon
strates the fact that she is an uncom-
promising republican.
In-1868, only few months before he
started to make his home in the west,
Mr.. Humphrey was admitted to member
ship in the Ohio bar, and upon arriving
in Kansas, pursued the practice Of law
with unvarying success and profit.
From that date to the present he has
continued to grow, until he has become
one of the strongest and most promi-
nent lawyers in the stKte.
Before finally settling in Kansas, he
stopped for time in Shelbyville, Mo-,
where he became one of the editors OF
the Herald, one of the most important
republican papers in that state, and rem
dsred invaluable service in organizing
the republican T arty in that section. He
had displayed extraordinary talents as

tastes in this direction, when he finally
