BOODLING IN KANSAS.
Populists Charged With Getting
Money From Policy Men.

TOPEKA. March 3.-The Topeka Cap
itol, in an editorial today. charged that
Fred J. Close, private secretary to Gov.
Lewelling, Attorney General Little and
James F. Legate, POpulist leader, had
received s4,500 from the policy shop
men of Kansas City, Kan, in considera-
tion of which sum the governor was to
appoint board Of police commissioners
for that city which would not interfere
with the operations of the policy men.
In addition to this the governor was to
veto the Taylor anti-policy bill if it
should pass the house. The charge was
made with such clearness of detail that
it created sensation among the MEM
bers of the legislature. Resolutions
were introduced in both houses today
providing for the appointment Of com
mittees to investigate the ugly allega-
tions. Maj. Hudson. editor of the Cap
itol, in an interview, said that he had
ample proof to substantiate his charge.
Gov. Lewelling, his private secretary,
and the attorney general all deny abso-
lutely any knowledge of the alleged
transaction. The policy shops have
strong lobby here, which is literally
supplied with money.

IilREPRHss BILE DICKEY.
He Brings Suit against the City
for 81, ,O6O95

ThadeuS S, Dickey is bound to make
trouble for the city. When the mayor
insisted upon the council annulling
Dickey's contract for - per cent of the
amount involved in the errors discovered
by him in the special assessment
rolls, the expert accountant swOre
he would get even. Yesterday the
mayor was served with the complaint in
a suit for Sl.060.95. brought by Dickey
against the city. Dickey sets forth In
the complaint that he was awarded a
contract for looking over the assessment
rolls June 26, '9l. During the term OF
this contract he found errors to the
amount of 500. 1l5, and his cOmmission II
aggregated S4,457.25. The council COM
mittee on claims, however. from time to
time trimmed down Dickey's bills, and
allowed him to draw but S3,39j.30 The
difference, Sl.0G0.95. Is now what he
wants the city to pay him.
Had Dlckey's contract been continued
he would not have asked for the amount
referred to, but now he thinks it no
more than fair he should be given what
the committee took away from him.

Do not wait too long before digging

ground and get into the bin. Digging
is one of the most important and ex-
pcnsiye processes in raising this crop.
The perfection and extensive manufac-
ture of digging machines have revolu-
ticniNd methods Of digging. especially
where they are raised as extensive field
crops. 1t is nearly impossible to hire
men to dig them who will be careful
about br,lising and will at the same
time accomplish much, while with the

would otherwise lie unemployed lift and
Lay them practically clean from dirt
along the row, leaving only the picking
up to be done by hand. However, on
many farms the crop of potatoes IS
too small to make the purchase Of n
digger practicable and hand methods
must be resorted To. 1t is work in
which little care counts for much, as
bruised or broken potatoes soon spoil
and it is difficult to separate them FROM
the good ones. The potato fork is about
tho best hand tool for digging and

will be cut. even though care is exer-
cised. In digging with fork be care
full not to set it TOO close to the vine
or many of the potatoes will be struck
or Clipped by the tines In separating
the dirt from them be careful about
brIising. for bruised potato is almost
sure to rot when stored and will cause
those about it to decay also. Judgment
must be exercised in this work as 1t
must be done rapidly. even at the ex-
pense Of an occasional bruised or brok-

The manner of handling while storing

is to carry them in crates from the
wagon to where they are to be stored.
