1t is, perhaps. proper to say that
the meeting of the Cleveland and
Carr Club above referred to was one
of the most largely attended in its
history. The meeting wag duly pub
lished aud all members who were not
there-and the number Of such
must be small, because the meeting
was large should have been present,
Besides, the committee had several
sittings at which protestants could
have filed their protests before the
resolutions were published. The
committee followed the Instructions
of the Club in public meeting assem-.
bled: that is all.-ED.

The mar was ugly, but the city
editor of the Western Wind stirred
him up in two minutes.

1t is, replied the man at the

Didn't this paper say I was a
liar? and he began prancing-

It did not.
Didn't it cay l was a scoundrel?

A Surprise Picnic

A few friends and acquaintance de-
cided to give Mrs. Petticord and her lit
tie daughter Mabel, a surprise before
their return to Columbus, Ohio, which
has been their home for the past twelve
years, this being their first visit to the
wild west" as it Is called. So bright
and early Wednesday morning, with
faces aglow with delight, were driven
toward the Gypsum hills, but the youn-
ger ones land some of the older ones not
excepted), knowing the baskets were
well filled, commenced, before we had
gotten very far, proposing to have some
thing to eat, so after telling stories to
the children and quietlng the older ones
who were getting hungry on account of
the imagined dainties in the baskets,
it was determined to drive out to the
first nice shade tree, which, fortunately,
was but short distance ahead. Then
the edibles, ect., were unloaded. The
little grove consisted of several trees, so
the horses occupied the shade Of one,
the children another and the older ones
a third to prepare the picnic dinner. A
freezer, ice and cream had been brought
so we went to work and made some de-
licious ice cream. Our guide said if we
needed fire he would get some Kansas
wood and start one. Mrs. Petticord
wished to know where he would get the
wood as there was none in sight. If she
had lived in Kansas for the past twenty
or thirty years, as has the writer, and
occasionally had to rustic fuel or have
! no dinner, she would have known the
kind of wood he referred to. Owing to
the thoughtfulness of the ladies no fire
was needed, as they had provided an
| abundance of iced-tea, lemonade and
ice-water. Little Mabel truly enjoyed
herself, as did all the children. A swing
was fixed up for their pleasure. After
dinner had been served and all satisfied
and rested it was proposed to go to the
top of some of the highest hills. The
team was then hitched to the wagon
and we proceeded on our journey, and
after going as far as we could drive we
jumped out and proceeded to foot it the
rest of the way. Mrs. Petticord and
little Mabel gathered quite collection
of rock and cedar twigs from one of the
highest bills to take home. After view
ing the scene until all were satisfied we
returned to the wagon and started home
ward. Nothing of Importance occurred
on the way home except Mrs. Petticord's
failure to capture prairie dog. We
drove by the Government experimental
farm on the return and truly that which
is growing there presents lovely sight.
All enjoyed the trip and will long re-
member the day pleasantly spent on the
Gypsum hills. A FRIEND.

Convention Notes.

The cut, dried and shocked air of that
county convention would indicate that
the republican party is ready to be
stacked away for the winter.
One of the refreshing signs of the con-
vention was Bro. Huffaker's broad
gagged smile of approval of everything
that occurred. 1t was equalled only by
his smile sardonlc at the two previous
conventions.
Mr.. McNeal deserves the congratula-
tions of all his populist friends for his
sincere manner Of telling them they
were not sincere.

The report was ready written on a
typewriter, all cut and dried, and con-
sisted seemingly of the least repulsiYe
morsels of the opening speech.
The convention then proceeded to
nominations. This, too, was merely q
cut and dried pro forma affair, as the
slate was public property before any
nominations were made. and nobody
felt encouraged to fight the fight of des
peration with an army of forlorn hope.
The nominations were as follows:
For representative, E. Sample, by Z.
T. Noble.
For district clerk, M. L. Mcclure, of
Kiowa, by Jno. McGregor.
For county attorney, A. l.. Noble, by
] Aleck hopkins.
For county superintendent, Miss Lola
Berry, of Eagle, by T. A. AcNeal.
For probate judge. Mr.. Griggsby, OF
Elm Mills, by Loren Edwards.
Mr.. Griggsby responded to his NOM
inatlon in few nicely chosen we'll
wOrded remarks, after which, the con
vention having performed its futile Ger
emony, adjourned.
The delegates of the 3rd commission
er's district met and chose Mr. David
son, chairman, and, and Jno. Lamport.
secretary.
MIR. T. A, Walton, seemingly, nei
well posted as to the inwardness of the
thing, namely, giving uncle Dan free
swing, moved that they proceed with
nominations. At this the delegates
called one another into corners to "ex
plain" and caused Bro. Walton to see
the absurdity of his blunder and with
draw his motion. After which a mo
ton was passed to adjourn the meeting
and leave its future call to the chair.

man chosen was e. G. McCoombs. TIC
