Spontaneous Combustion.

A fire alarm at Mt. St. Joseph's
college aroused considerable excite
ment in north Abilene this morning.
A large quantity Of soft coal had re-
Gently been stored in the cellar of the
residence adjoining the college and
while the sisters were ut breakfast it
was found to be on fire. Mother
Bernard, as always, was equal to the
occasion and soon had a fire brigade
organized and extinguished it before
any assistance arrived. No harm
was done beyond the loss Of some
coal and the necessity of moving it.

sPEAK1NG.oF POLITICS.
The Campaigns Interesting Features
Lively Times Ahead.

The past week has developed little
new in county politics. The Popu-
lists, owing to the withdrawal OF
Messrs. Cranston and Pottle. did not
hold their primaries as arranged for
Thursday and the ticket is now COM
plete. 1t Is a collection Of weak sis
tiers throughout and the managers are
doing some lively pulling and haul
ing to get it in good running shape.
A good deal Of comment unfavorable
to Brother-in-Law Crawford has been
aroused by his treatment Of his Office
assistant, Andy Kline. Kline Is A
Woodworking young man who has
toiled in Crawford's Office for years in
the hope of gratifying his life ambi-
ton to be a lawyer. 1t is said that
Crawford either to make his own vic
tory over Cranston more sure or in
order to add IS to the campaign fund
persuaded Kline to enter the race for
the Pop nomination for attorney.
Kline put up his hard earned money
in good faith and then Crawford and
the rest Of the leaders laughed at him
and guyed him. OF course he stood
no show and now he and his friends
are decidedly angry as they see how
he was made game Of by one who
should have helped him instead of
working" him, 1t seems to have
been very paltry piece of business
for great statesman (D like Craw-
ford.
One of the Populist strongholds
was that good, honest, intelligent
farmers ought to be elected to the
State legislature. Now, if they are
true to first principles we are right
with them on that score. 'Spose we
all get together and send 0. l..

The Abilene News presents a ridc-

to cram Populist mess down the
threats Of the straight Democracy.
The News in its wind attempts to get
its brother-in-law into job where he
can make decent living has made
itself both contemplate and ridicu-
lous.- Hope Crescent
The heaviest load on the Pop ticket
is admitted to be Brother-in-Law
Crawford. He has been turned down
by one party or another for years and
years, never yet was successful. Now
he has bobbed up as a candidate again
with Democratic endorsement and the
Pops themselves are dead tired of him.
Chapman Standard; S. 5. Smith is
making friends all over the county
and will be elected to succeed himself
by larger majority than he received
last fall. "0ur brother-in-law' won't
be in it when the votes are counted in
