A FALSE REPORT.

To the Editor Of THE ADVOCATE.
We clip the following from the JeTer-
sonian of April %:
Congressman ]. G. Otis, of the Fourth
district, has decided to not be candidate
for reelection. This leaves the Peoples
party some hope of carrying the district. W.
III. Bennington or Dave OVermeyer can be
elected.
By what authority this report Is circu-
lated we are unable to state.
At what time or place we have given
anyone any intimatlon Of this kind, or
any authority to speak for US upon this
subject Is entirely beyond our knowledge.
It locke very much like a political or
party fabrication. 1t looks like the
plunge Of political dirk into g mans
back, while he is busily employed at
tending to public duties.
In the sense of being a candidate by
trying to pack delegations, manipulate
conventions, or pull hidden wires, to se-
cure the nomination, we have done abso-
lutely nothing; and never expect to do
any of that kind of Office seeking work.
But, Mr.. Editor, in order to counteract
this false report, that seems to have
gained some publicity, we will frankly
say here and now, that if the Peoples
party of Kansas and the Fourth Congress
sional district wishes to favor US with
second term in the United States con-
gress, we can see no good reason for re-
fusing such an endorsement Personally
we have very little TO say about the mat
ter. We have endeavored to honestly fill
the position to the best of our ability.
1t will not be denied by any person
familiar with the situation that usually
after two years service any member of
congress can serve the country better
than during the first term. 1t matters
not how talented any member may be,
1t takes little time to become familiar
with the duties of the position and the
routine of legislation.
We most cheerfully await the action of
the Peoples party convention.

Thirty.Eighth Senatorial District.

GARDEN CITY, Kan, April 30, 1892.
The central committee of the Peoples
party In the Thirty-eighth senatorial
district met here to-day and transacted
such business as properly came before
1t. The district was well represented by
men who are enthusiastic In their sup
port Of the principles which alone can
break the monopolistic band that binds
the common people Of the present In q
condition of serVitude.
All the members of the committee
were free to express their views and were
afforded ample opportunities for doing
so. 1t was unanimously agreed that the
Peoples party in the district not only
had a possibility, but with continued
unanimity Of action, will win the race in
the coming campaign for state senator.
The basis OF representation was fixed
at one delegate for each 100 votes or
major fraction thereof cast for the Peo-
pies party In 1891; and that each county
be allowed at least one delegate. The
following is theapportiontment: Edwards,
4; Ness, 5; Pawnee, 6; Garfield, l; Rush,
8; Hodgeman, l; Lane, 2; Scott, /; Wichi-
ia, 2; Greeley, 1; Hamilton, 1; Kearney,
l; FinneY, 2; Stevens, /; Seward, 1; Has
kell, 1; Grant, 1; Stanton, 1; Morton, 1;
total, 38.
The committee recommends that the
delegates be elected on June II, 1892, to
attend the senatorial convention which
shall be held In Garden City on Friday,
June II, 1892, for the purpose of noml-
mating a candidate for the Office of state
senator. II. H. ARTEY,

WEATHER CROP BULLETIN

Board of Agriculture, in Cooperation
With the United States Weather Bureau
Central Office, Rooms A and 46, KnOl
Building, TOpeka-Bulletin For the Weel
Ending, May Z, 1892.
PRECIPITATION.
The rainfall this week centered In
Shawnee county, where little over sl1
inches fell. The rainfall is light In the
extreme western counties, with none In
the extreme southwestern. It is norma
in Clark and Kiowa, and above the
normal In Edwards, extending thence
northeastward, to the northeastern
counties, the greatest excess occurring in
Shawnee, where it is five and sixteen
hundreths inches above the normal. 1t
Is deficient in .Comsnche, Barber, Harper
and Sedgwick.
TEMPERATURE AND SUNSHINE.
The conditions were about normal in
the western, but deficient in the eastern
counties.
RESULTS.
The excessive rains in the northeastern
counties are retardlng work. In Shawnee
washouts have caused some damage, and
the high winds were unfsvorable to fruit
setting. The conditions from Clark to
Dickinson have been favorable and vege-
tatlon has responded all along the line.
In Comanche, Barber and Harper late
wheat and gardens are needing more
rain and less wind. In Chsutauqus and
the southeastern counties the week has
proved good one for vegetation and the
crops have greatly improved. Apple
trees, generally, are in full bloom and
promise an abundant crop.
REMARKS.
Barber-Early seeded fall wheat is
looking better than one year ago, but is
need ng rain.
Chsutauqua-A grand week for grow
ing crops.
Cloud Cloudy, damp and cold, yet a
fine prospect for big crop.
Comsnche-Ground too dry for break
ing sod; wheat would be benefited by
rain, still the outlook for wheat is ex-
cellent.
Dickinson-Wheat and oats never
looked better; much corn yet to be plant
ed owing to cold, wet weather; good
for large crop of apples and
small fruits; vegetables late this season.
Edwards-The week has been cool and
favorable to small grain, but corn needs
more warmth and sunshine.
Elk-The heavy rain yesterday washed
ut some corn; corn all planted and COM
Cup; oats doing well; wheat not much
good here.
FOrd-Rsin and warmer weather want
ed for all CROPS; wheat and rye in excel
lent condition.
Harvey-The weather has been bene-
fetal to all crops.
Kearney-Wheat, rye and barley look
well, but growth is retarded; several
moist days, however, have materially as
sisted, and few warm days will obliter-
ate any evil effects.
KloWa-PlentY Of rain throughout the
county; warmer weather needed for corn;
wheat doing we'll.
Lsbette-Wheat bids fair to make 70
per cent of q full crop; oats late, but
good; fruit trees dropping bloom badly,
hence the crop will be light.
Lane-Cold and windy; ground getting
