Saturday was another day when
few old-time politicians of Medicine
Lodge called a few moss back republi-
cans together from different portions
of the county to sanction a cut and
dried scheme, the original author Of
which is nearer Queen VIctorla's throne
than Barber county. From this stand
point it was success but from no 9th
CT. For awhile it looked as though the
Medicine Lodge delegation, of II, would
have the whole thing to itself but at
about 2:30 when Chairman Nixon cali
ed the convention to order few strays
walked solemnly in.
The convention was organized by
electing Oscar Haberlein temporary
chairman and Harry Glenn temporary
secretary. On motion the usual COM
mittees were appointed and a recess of
thirty minutes taken giving the COM
mittees time TO report.
In order to economic in space, we will
only give the names of one committee,
namely, the committee on resolutions:
a. l.. Noble, w. r.. Julian, f. j. Saun-
ders, J. X. Osborne and George Eckert.
The committees were out about As
minutes, giving the managers time to
six things" after which the conven-
ton was again called to order.
The report of the committee OIL Gre
dentials was first received and, accord
ing to the committee, Deerhead was
the only one not represented. How
ever, Lockard had no representation
probably because there are no republi-
cans in that precinct.
The committee on permanent organ
iZation recommended that the temper
airy organization be made permanent
and before the convention knew what
had happened, Mr.. Haberlein was ad-
ministerlng a dose of fermented oratory
TO the faithful. But the victims sat
patiently and heard it out. His bray
ing was confined mostly to the ''incom-
potency and dishonesty of Barber
county officials, charging them to have
been an outrageous expense TO the
county, none of which can be proved
by the records or otherwise. The con-
vention applauded him when he sat
down and the committee on order of
business made the following report as
to nominations and other business.

two, which means that there are always
boomers, and that there may or may not
dc skirts also.
This discourse is mainly upon skirts,
because knickers have no longer the fas-
cination of faddism. woman who was
trying to smoke a cigarette remarked
plaintively: II wish this nasty thing was
proper, then / could throw il away"
knickers have become so proper that the
fin de steele girl, who cares only for the
thing that is a trifie risque, doesn't have
to wear them. They will stand on their
own legs in future to be worn or not to be
worn, as they prove or fail to prove them
selves the most practical garments for
cycling. s..t.--.
The woman whois able to pay from $50
10 $50 for thoroughly up to date and
thoroughly conventional wheeling dress
is out on the boulevards this spring in a
pepper and salt melton skirt, made to
open on the sides instead of i'm the back,
and coming down TO the top of the shoes.
This skirt is scant or full, according to
the riders figure, and Is lined with very
heavy silk or with farmers satin. Under
IL she wears boomers -er, very possibly,
equestrian tights, buttoning just below
the knees. A single button cutaway coat,
with shirt waist or a silk blouse, gives
her the smart look so necessary to her
peace of mind. Her headgear is Scot
fish cap with two quilts, and on her feet
she has low russell shoes meeting leg
gings.
The woman, or her tailor, would give
these explanations: Melton is the most
durable of materials; pepper and salt
shows no dust; the Ieegings match the
skirt and meet the tights or knickers, so
that no sort OF accident can cause any ex-
posure; the Scottish capis bright coored.

1 IHE Dattlc next year.
II had not. been Mr.. Hills intention to
outline his position categoricaily. Such a
| step might. indeed. savor OF indleicacy.
But he has been obliged latterly to let it
be known TO his zealous supporters in the
rural portions OF his own state that no is
| not presidential candidate. Surprising
as it may be to many who have watched
the senator's career with interest, he has
deliberately taken himself out Of the
field.
IL may be thought little odd that in
his recent letter on the presidential pros
poets Mr.. Hill did not state his own posi-
ton more definitely. For that omission
there are two reasons. In the first place,
Mr.. Hill could not advise against the Sc
lection of New York man without re-
fiectinR upon his own state. The sena-
tors view, as outlined to personal friends
and repeated in political gatherings, Is
that New York is now looked upon as the
stronghold of the money power. and that
any man put forward by the Empire state
would arouse the hostility of n strong ele-
ment in the South aud West. Again, Mr..
Hill could not dsclaim any intention to
be president without seeming enormously
egotistical. 1t will be recalled that Mr..
Cleveland has authorized q repetition of
the statement tnat ne VIII not DC candi-
date next year. For Mr.. Hill to follow
with a similar declaration would be in
the nature of an anti-climax.
Mr.. Hills position on the income tax
led TO curious exchange OF views when
he was in New York. Here is the CONVEX
sation, as repeated in the democratic
clubs, not verbatim, but in substance:
"Senator, you are making many enc
mics by opposing the income tax"
"Well, making enemies is gentle
art.n
s'"But is IL expedient?"
"To do what you think right is always
expedient. A man, as Bismarck says,
should act in any lawful way that he con-
stderA good for his country, oven in the
face OF a majority"
Whatever may be the result of the po-
litieal maneuvres now in progress, il is
not likely that Senator Hill will lift
fipgerln them. Ii is certainly fact that
he does not want to be the next democratic
candidate for the presidency. But the
effort to spread this belief affords It's propa-
gators what is known in politics a mon
key and parrot sort of time, figure of
speeoh now very freely applied to the po-
litical situation in New York.
