committee calls convention to nomin-
ate candidates for state offices, ingalls,
will issue manifesto, declaring that
the people should have q voice in the
selection of senator He will say that
he is willing for the people to settle the
question, thereby practically taking the
fight out of the legislature. He will
urge the Republicans in each county ITO
instruct their delegates to the state
convention 70 insist upon the nomina-
ton of a candidate for senator by the
convention. II is ingalls, intention to
be within reach and appear before the
convention at the proper time and
make one of his characteristic speeches,
with which he expects to carry the body
by storm
I'm case Of success in the conven ton,
Ingalls, proposes TO go before the people
and make a fight, similar TO that made
by Palmer of Illinois, feeling that he
will have no opposition from his own
party 1t has been arranged that GER
tain Republican papers in the east,
who are friendly to ingalls,, will raise
the hue and cry that the party needs
Ingalls, back in the senate. This will
be done about the time of the issuance
of the manifesto. ingalls, hopes 70 in
fiuence the Republican press Of Kansas
in this way.
4" The most of the old line politicians
are against Ingalls, said friend No.
in his letter to friend No. 2, and this
plan is 10 remove the fight from their
influence and give it to the people for
settlement Mr. ingalls, feels that the
people are with him, and it strikes me
that this plan is good politics, and viii
Ill
can candidates will have TO accept Mr..
ingalls, gauge of battle, or retire from
the field. 1t would be ruination OF any
candidate to say that he would not
trust his cause with the people. The
candidate who would ask the legisla-
ture to elect him senator in face of
nomination by a state convention
would be branded as a bolter and con-
signed TO political oblivion.
There Is no doubt that Cy Leland is
for ]. r. Burton for senator, as against
Ingalls,. They fixed it up somehow in
Washington at the time of the national
committee meeting. Burton is to help
Leland in his fight for delegate-at-laTg
70 the st. Louis convention. and in re-
turn Leland is to throw his influence
to Burton in the senatorial contest.
Burton, you see, has strong political
pull. He would be dangerous oppon-
ent in the legislature, which is, as a
rule, manipulated by the politicians.
Mr.. Ingalls, would feel safer with his
campaign transferred from the legisla-
ture to the whole state. ingalls, has the
confidence Of the people. Burton hasn't.
fAdvices from Atchison are that the
scheme TO defeat Leland for delegate
at-large will win. He may pull through
as a delegate from the First district,
but with defeat for delegate-ait-large
recorded against him, it is not likely
that he would be reelected to member
ship on the national committee. This
would prevent a national committee
pull in favor of Burton, or any other
candidate, and give ingalls, the inside
track"

DRILL LET LOOSE
AFTER TEN DAYS M0NKEYING PRO
GRESs is MADE AT Gas WELL.

Hole Showed Depth of Six Hundred and
Fifty-Five Feet at O'Clock Last Night,
and Work was Progressing Very Salts
factoriIy-The Well Visited by Ex-
perts From Neodesha, Who Give the
Citizens Words of Encouragement and
Predict That Good Flow of Oil VIII be
Secured-DriIl is in Black Flint.
According 10 street pariance, the drill
was Jared loose at the gas well, after
the visit of the Eagle reporter, and as
q consequence during the last twenty
four hours the drill descended fifty-five
feet Chinaward, and as a result the log
at the city engineers office showed
record of 655 feet beneath the surface.
For six days there was considerable
pottering, and but little progress made,
and while the men at the well were
filled with hope, and were bringing
to the surface many curioslties, but
their progress was anything but salts
factory, and to a person who knew
nothing about the trials Of boring a
hole in the Arkansas valley, the work
was liable TO give out the impression
that one was nursing the job"
This impression was growing very
fast, and an ominous CRAWL was heard
that bespoke of storm of Indignation
which was about to descend upon some
body's head. That the reports were
hopeful, and encouraging had ceased
10 rest as a diet upon the stomach Of
those who were interested in the drill
ing. They want something besides in
dications, and that something they de-
termined TO have or know the reason
why. When the people Of Wichita are
once aroused something has got TO
move, and as a consequence the drill
and stubborn debris stopped its mon
keying, and this morning the Eagle can
report the most satisfactory days
work since Christmas.
The drill hung around in the neigh
= borhood of 500 feet, and every time the
reporter would inquire as to the depth
be was greeted with the answer that
1--WE can't tell. We have taken no
measurement.
This was different yesterday and
when the usual question was asked the
answer canine, 1855 feet" Not this but
there was log TO show that this depth
had been reached, and every stroke of
the great walking beam sent the drill
deeper and deeper in the ground.
There has been a large amount Of the
trenton rock reached, which is filled
with crude petroleum, but nothing of
nature to warrant a report of a great
flow. The indicat tons are good, and
when the well was visited yesterday by
experts from Neodesha they gave out
much encoura cement from the indica-
tons taken out by the drill and pre-
served in the glass jars.
The following is the complete log, as
given out by the city engineer, from the
fret he n AMI re oh
from the pack sand which continued
until $40 feet were reached. The drill
at 655 feet was working in black flint
which comes near resembling coal slate
except its hardness. The complete log
reads:

O. 7. Bassett says relative to the
present furry on account of the non
payment of taxes, that he too believes
every citizen should pay his taxes.
But. there are taxes that are legal, and
! taxes that are illegal. Taxes on the
water bonds. for instance, are illegal,
and he will not pay them. Moreover,
he says the city council sitting as a
board of equalization bas got into a
more than it is worth. Mr.. Bassett
attended meeting not so very long
ago of the board to object to their jump
ing up his valuations without either
rhyme or reason. He says he found
the venerable city fathers, some with
their feet cooked up over the desks,
other with their legs crossed compla-
Gently, and all leaning back in their
chairs with their thumbs in their vest
arm holes, smoking and taking things
very easy.
In response to lis protests, the
venerable city fathers puffed their
cigars deprecatingly, and said: ooh.
now Bassett, you can pay those taxes,
You know the city is poor and needs
the cash. Come on now, and pay mp"
Mr., Bassett objects to paying what he
considers outrageOusly high taxes for
purely sentimental reasons, to say the
least, and he just won't. He says there
are really about seven thousand people
in Ell Paso, while the city council IS
trying to do business on a basis of %, 900
inhabitants. Methods of administering
this city government need an overhaul
ing. and a,rearrangement,a a readsptation
to existing conditions as they are-not
as they ought to be according to the
aldermanic Imagination.

while advocating this recognition,

to annexation" "
"How, then, would you maintain its
Independence" asked the secretary.
| How would you, for instance prevent
Spanish domination over the island? ;
| 81 would" replied the Alabama
senator, "establish, if need be, a pro-
tectorate. l would follow much the
same policy we are pursuing with re-
gard to Hawaii, and 1 would send an

The secretary made the impression
upon some of the members of the COM
mittee, by the way he pursued this line
of inquiry, that while he was disposed
to hold out strongly for the presidents
prerogative, he was not so strongly
opposed to Cuban independence as he
had been year ago, and would be
entirely reconciled to it if satisfied as to
the future course to be pursued. He
did not dissent strongly from point
that his own report showed sufficient
cause for action, and he admitted that
a state of affairs which permits the kill
ing of American citizens and the de-
struction of American property was
deplOrable.

months in insurgent camp in the
