LOOKS MORE COMPLEX.
Who Shall Be Grain Inspector is
the Question Now.
POTTAWATOMIE IS AGAINST MERRITT.

r. F. Antle OF Atchison, is Candidate
since Elk Lieutenant Governor Felt
Failed for Bank Commissioners.
1t is expected that the next appoint
ment to be made by Governor Morrill,
will be that of state grain inspector.
Since the failure of ex Lieutenant Gov
ernor A. J. Felt of the Atchison Cham
pion to get the bank commissionership,
Atchison people have started new boom
for F. R. Antle of Atchison for grain in
spector, but Mr.. Antle is not considered
the first man in the race.
Until last week it was supposed that
the grain inspectorship would go either
to D. w. Naill of Abilene or A. c. Sher-
man of RossvilIe, and as Mr.. Sherman
lives in Shawnee county the politicians
figured that the Abilene man would get
the appointment
On Friday, however, AL Merritt came
down from Wamego and he was here
only a few hours until the story was out
that Governor Morrill, had decided to go
between Rossville and Abilene and give
the grain inspectorship to the Wamego
man.
As soon as word reached Wamego that
Mr.. Merritt was here as a candidate Pot
tawatomie county Republican politicians
commenced to protest
Governor Morrill, has since been visi-
ted by delegation of Republican work
ers from that county protesting against
Mr.. Merritt's appointment on the ground
that he was Democrat until four years
ago and he has been candidate for
Office ever since he turned Republican.
A Wamego man has written to the
STATE JOURNAL. that Mr.. Merritt was de-
feated for mayor of Wamego a year ago
by vote of two to one, and that if he is
appointed grain inspector 2, 100 Republi-
cans in that county will go on the war
path.

dict who will get the grain inspector

The damage suit of Henry l. Call
against H. g. Larimer for $4,000 for

self
1t has occasioned some surprise that
the case has not come up for trial at this
session of the district court Very few
people outside of the clerks office knew
what had become of the case, as an effort
was made by Mr.. Calls attorney to keep
the matter a profound secret, and the
clerk was especially requested not to tell
the newspapers what had been done with
the suit
The suit was an outgrowth of the Ida
Peterson case which was in the justice
courts several months and which was
finally dismissed. Mr.. Call was not con-
nected with the matter then in court and
while it was pending was not in Topeka
1t was while he was away that stories
were circulated about Mr.. Call and the
girl When he returned he brought suit
against Mr.. Larimer for defamation of
character, claiming that he was RESPONSE
BILE for the circulation of the story.
Some time was spent IN taxing depo-
sitions which tended TO exonerate Mr..
Call, and then nothing more was heard
of the matter. It was said that all Mr.. Call

He Be Investigated.
Captain W. s Wait whose term as
member of the state board of charities
will expire next Monday has written
long letter to Governor Morrill, in regard
to the investigation the governor has
ordered to be made of him.
In this letter Captain Wait says that
Charles r Young, the man who swore
to the charges against him is fugitive
from Justice; that he ran away from Con-
cordia to escape arrest Capt. Wait says
in his letter, that the governor in
his appointments has wholly ignored
the claims of union soldiers, and con-
cludes his letter by saying that he will
be out Of office before the investig
committee can be appointed, and wants
to know what the governor will do about
it.
Captain Wait says the charges against
him are groundless, and that most of
them were evidently instigated by the
former superintendent, DIR. McCasey.

back does nearly all the kicking, and
the other seven men? They join in
the general scrimmage and often
times find their way home in an ambu-

The object of the game is to carry
the ball over the attacking goal line
or kick it over, and between the goal
posts to score touchdown and

Is carried. kicked or passed across the
goal and there held.
A goal is obtained by kicking the
ball from the opponents goal, called
"a goal from the field" or by kicking
1t from a place held on the ground by
one of his own side over the cross-bar,
called "a goal from touchdown"
