STOLE A MARCH ON THE PoPuLisTS
Democrats and Republicans of Kansas tx
eeuttve Brilliant Coup.
TOPEKA, kan, Sept. 10.-The latest
political sensation comes from Stevens
county, in southwestern Kansas. Last
year Stevens county polled in all 2eO
votes, giving the Populist ticket about
$50 majority. Ten days ago the Peo-
pies party central committee called the
primaries for electing delegates to
county convention. Little interest was
manifested by the Populists and when
the polls opened they discovered that by
a thoroughly organization of the RepuS
i;cans and Democrats their primary had
been captured by the opposition. When
the delegates met at Hugoton it was
found that four-ffths Of them We're
either Republicans or stalwart Demo-
crats. They proceeded to meet in con
~ention and nominate full cousl. y
ticket, composed of Republicans as.s
Democrats. Int calling themselves tue

A Benefit Ball to Be Given to Help out the
Finances-Committee Appointed
to Attend to Things.

A COursing club meeting was held at
the court house Saturday evening and
an adjourned meeting at the Office of
Ennis & Walkers implement house,
Tuesday night Frank Robinson was
chosen chairman and M. B. Tomblin,
secretary. The following COMMITTEES
we're appointed:
Finan ce:-Tom Grier, A. Wittelsho-
fer and William Walker, jr.
General Arrangementt:-F II. Smith,
Billy Ennis, w. r. Morton and Frank
Robinson.
Printing!. H. Stewart, E. F. Ten
nant and j. II. TAFT.
On the BaIl:-E. A. Douglas with
power to appoint other committees on
the ball.
The meeting of the Kenmore Cours-
ing club at Goodland will be of some
benefit financially to every citizen of
Sherman county, and will advertise this
county and Goodland as it was never
advertised before. Of course it will
AXE some money to carry out the pro-
gramme, as now laid out, but it wi II al
be returned to the pockets of the dona-
tors with big interest.
Goodland has a reputation, that is
widespread, of being liberal and pro-
gressive city. This reputation it can
not afford to lose. Now these men who
are coming here to course over our vast
prairies for the first time are men of

monious action with contempt and will
form an adverse conclusion that will
take much to wipe out.
The terms by which Goodland secur-
ed this meeting were dead easy, COM
pared to what Hot Springs, S. D., had
to give to get the National Coursing
club meet at that place. That city gave
the 5000 asked, gladly, and did not re-
pent of its bargain, Goodland pays $500
and, we are confident, will not repent
of its bargain. The spectators will leave
more money, at the hotels and livery
stables alone, than the amount asked.
The advertising alone is worth more
than the 5000. The sport is worth more
than the $780, The profits to our mer-
chants is worth more than the $500.
The advantage to the farmers, by hav-
ing the jacks killed off, is worth more
than the 300.
AS Sherman county will not have its
annual fair and as the anniversary cele-
bration did not take place, this meet
ing will fill in nicely for the recreation
that every class needs before taking up
the routine of winter life,
Let our citizens give with an open
hand and each strive to make the COM
ing event more than a success, so that
our coming guests will leave us with
regret, carrying away with them the
impression that Goodland is what it
really is-the greatest little city in the
west.

A special meeting of the Local Board
of Health was held in Council! Hall

was attended by DR.. James A. Steuart
Secretary of the State Board of Health
aud a number of physicians of the
county. Questions pertaining to hygiene
and sanitation were freely discussed.
County commissioners Andrew Anderson

Secretary of the meeting. Among those
attending were: County commissioners

was thoroughly considered as were all
other measures affecting the public health
The existence Of several nuisances
detrimental to health in several towns
of the county was brought before the
Board which will take steps toward their
abatement. The law requiring all
children attending the public schools to
be vaccinated prior to their entrance was
freely considered and strongly endorsed

infectious disease occurs in family all
of it's members should isolate themselves
as far as possible, and under no consider

be permitted to attend school, as in this
way the disease could be widely dis

A Great Accommodation.

Beginning with Monday, the tn inst

now passes Elkton about $50 a. m. will
stop at this station. This will be q
great accommodation not only to , nar ss5fis
coming to Elkton to attend court but to
alrthe patrons of the railroad going to
Philadelphia. The present morning
train, at SIG. is too early especially for
persons living in the country, and the
train is a very slow one. With the
change the train service on the P. w. &
B. is absolutely perfect. We hope this
stopping of this train will be perma
nent arrangement, at least during the
winter. We congratulate Supt. Brooks
on this accommodation. Railroads are
for the public convenience and the com
pany which caters for the public is sure
of it's reward,
