The Iola register. [volume] (Iola, Allen County, Kansas) 1875-1902, 1894-10-12

hThe REGISTER bulletin board wa
the first to announce to the people tn
glad news that Allen county had cap
lured the first prize given at th'
Wichita Fair FOR the best county
display OF fruit. The premium i
Sl0O and we all have right to bs
proud of ESPECIALLY the HOrticul-
tural Society, which made the dis
play and Mr.. Lawyer and Mr.. Pan
coast who went over with it. In adj
dition to this prize. We took first prem
ium on four single plates and second
on three plates. SO Allen county is
again in the band wagon. Mr.. Law
yer said that it seemed impossible for
a great many people to believe that
the fruit actually grew in Kansas, ii
anything else they had ever seen
here. He says also that a plate of
persimmons and paw paws that MIR
Pancoast took along attracted no end
of attention. He thinks the display
we made was worth a good deal more
than it cost as an advertisement OF
Allen county.
| We nOtide by Oklahoma papers that
A. T.. Scott was nominated for the
Territorial Council,-an Office corre-
spending TO the office of Senator in a
Stately Republican convention
held at Oklahoma City last Saturday.
The nomination was made, mot by
acclimatiOn," the papers say, "but
with a rOusing cheer and with greater
enthusiasm than was ever before wit
messed in an OklahCma convention,
the delegates rising and waving hats
and umbrellas, and cheering vOciier-
Ously.n Mr.. Scott had not been q
candidate for the honor, and the NOM
inati0n was made in spite of his pro-
test, the convention refusing to consid-
er any other name. The district has
been heavily Democratic, but there
seems to be a fair show for the Repub-
licans to win this year. The same
convention that nominated MIR. Scott
for the Council, nominated Harry St.
John, son of our Ex-Governor, for Rep
resentative.

enee of a large and brilliant assem-
blege. The principal address was

Chas. +. Scott, ON behalf of the donor,
formally turing the building over to
Hon. ID. a. Valentine as the represen-

At the banquet which followed the
formal exercises other speeches were
made, and the occasion was a memoir
able one.
