NO BLOOD IN THE CASE.
From the Kansas City Times.

CIIy II1ncS.
A dispatch from Wichita announces that
Marsh Murdoch has been visited by large
circle of friends who have persuaded him that
the future interests of the party and incident
ally of the state demand that he shall SO far
sacrifice himself as to become the Republican
candidate for governor. After powerful con-
sideration he is said to have consented. Cn-
der these circumstances the campaign may be
said to have opened. A preliminary contest
will be waged in selecting the place of meet
ing. If Wichita gets the meeting it Will be
first blood for Murdoch. If Topeka captures
it no conclusions can be drawn, for that city
claims the convention by right of precedent
and inheritance

The following is some ancient lore re-
garding leap year. 1t printed in an
almanac of 1895 and in the publication
1t is credited to a book on "Courtship,
Love and Natrimonie:" "Albeit it is
now become part of common lave in re-
gard to relations of life, that as often as
every bissextile year doth return, the
ladyes have the sole privilege, during
the time it continueth, of making love
unto the men, which they doe either by
wurdes or lookes, as to them it seemeth
proper. and moreover no man will be
entitled to the benefit of clergy who
doeth refuse to accept the offers of a
ladye or who doeth in any wise treat her
proposal with slight or contumely."

These Three, And the Greatest, Wichita

From the Satina Republican.
We see no reason why Wichita should
not some day make as large a city as
Kansas City. With western and south
western Kansas irrigated and proper
railroad facilities to the gulf, Wichita
being located in the center of one of the
most fertile sections in the United States,
she certainly ought to make maguifi-
cent city. There is room for three large
cities in Kansas: One at the eastern
border which is represented by Kansas
City, one in the central ard northwest
which is represented by Salina and one
in the south and southwest represented
by Wichita. Topeka will always be a
beautiful city and a city around which a
great many interests will cluster, it
being the capitol of great state. But
the three cities named will evidently be
the great commercial cities of the state,
and since all the flourishing cities Kan
sas cannot become commercial centers.
let every city and citizen work for Kan
sas and the building of these commercial
centerS,

The Mound City Clarion says that
kansas is the very best milk producing
country in the world, and yet has no
milk condensing factories, though it
could very profitably operate these in
stitutions." This is true, not only as to
milk, but also in large measure as to
fruits and vegetables. These are pro-
duced here in the greatest abundance
and of the very best quality, and yet
thousands of dollars worth are permitted
to go to waste every year in almost every
county in the state for lack of facilities
to take care of and utilize it to the best
advantage. Much of these products could
be put upon the markets in the large
cities east and north and in perfect con-
dtion, but for the exorbitant rates of
freight charged by the railroads, which
practically shuts them out; but canning
factories and evaporators would over
come this disadvantage and even help
the producers to greater profits.

Appreciation of kindly Service.


From The Atchison Champion.
There are many thankless tasks in this
world and perhaps the most so Is the
judge on the bench. Every day brings
some vexed question before him that is
sure to result in the enemy of one party
or the other, and the cases where ag-
grieved parties afterwards thank the
judge for giving him justice is so rare as
to be notable. While judge of the dis
trict court of Atchison county, W. ID.
Gilbert sentenced boy 10 the reform
school until he should attain his major
ity. He is now out of the school and has
returned to Atchison. Recently he called
on the Judge and told him he was glad
he gave him so long n sentence as it
would be the making of a man ont of n
worthless boy who bid fair to make a
first class criminal. He had given up
all of his old habits and now with a good
trade thoroughly learned could go forth
in the world and lead an honest, upright
life which he proposed now TO do. The
young man speaks very highly of the
reform school.

 Frank L. Wright, on the Jessie

 Wright Is taking out excellent ore
 which runs S.30 ounces per ton in
 gold. He is working from ten to
 fifteen men.
 Jno. $. Jones, who has been build ing l0-stamp mill at tEe head of ] Chapparal gulch, started , stamps. and Is running day aud night. His dam full of water also developed 1 about one inch of water now flow ing from his big tunnel across tho gulch from the mill. This water is ! piped to the mill, and, added to that taken from other sources. he will probably have enough water now to run steadily.
 Woods, Mccoy & Clark are work ing the Sheridan mine. under lease. and are taking out some nice ore. Clark also has lease on the north 6UO feet ot the Jessie mine, and is prospecting for an ore chute. The Silver Belt mill and mine has shut down Tor the present. The mill will be changed so as to work gold ores from the upper part of the district.
 Henry Lang has just made ship ment of ten tons ofore to the samp- Ter at Prescott, and also fifteen tons to Jones mill for treatment.
 Wells X Packard. who have the Dividend mine bonded. have reach. ed 100 feet in depth. The ledge is still long and rich. It is the inten- tion of these gentlemen to continue to depth of POO feet, and if the | ledge holds it's width and value l they will probably build mill upon | the point of the hill below the mine.
 Quite number of chloriders of different parts of the district are taking out ore in small lots, but the general grade Is above average.
