The travelling public is complaining
great deal Of the bad railway con-
nections at Winfield between the
Santa Fe north bound train from
Guthrie and the west bound Southern
Kansas from Kansas City. The pas.
senger on the main line arrives st
Winfield just forty minutes too late
to make connections with the west
bound Southern Kansas, compelling
passengers to lay over in Winfield
twenty-fOur hours. Winfield is a
mighty poor town to pass the time"
10, and consequently a majority Of the
people either 20 to Wichita or walk
over to Wellington, where they wait
for tue train the following day.
II the Santa Fe could arrange its
time card so that the train from
Guthrie would arrive at Winfield
forty minutes earlier it would save
the travelling public many lnconven-
fences. The travel on the Panhandle
division is very good at present, and
II it keeps up the change will likely
be made.

are drifting along on the high waves
OF prosperity while the farmers OF
this part Of the state do not enjoy
prosperity quite so well, as we raised
but a small amount OF wheat aud
most OF US have to buy our -four. So
prosperity you will see very readily
has struck US 10 the wrong lend.
Our corn crop is short, but however
as it is spotted prosperity abroad in
our land We will just keep quiet and
not grunble; perhaps we may have
small spot strike US after a while, as
some Of our very wise heads here
already have shifted 1t in the ali but
1t Is not yet visible to the man Of
Ordinary intelligence.
l write this to let you know how it
is with US in this part Of the state for
fear you should think prosperity was
general in or state.
| did not write this for publication
but, however, you can do as you
please. see my time is about up

Announcements.
THE SENA TORLAL SITUA TON

The change OF candidates in the Sena'
torial race in this district will give quite
q different coloring 10 the situation. The
withdrawal Of Mr.. Ashcraft, Of Meade,
and the selection OF Hon. ID. r Murray
In his place almost assures US victory
In November Mr.. Murray is acceptable
10 all Democrats and popular with all
men, while 30 much could not be said oil
his predecessor. Mr. Ashcraft came into
the race hampered by a number Of
things. The Populists did not want him
because they claimed that he had de-
serted them. The Democrats were not
over jealous for him at any time. In the
very start they felt that he could not
carry the strength Of his party. AS the
election grew nearer this fact seemed to
be more apparent. 1t was wise step
therefore for Mr.. Ashcraft to get out OF
the race. We don't suppose any one has
any personal feelings towards Mr. Ash
craft in the matter, but politically they
could all see his weak points. He acted
judiciously in giving way and selecting a
man who is in a position to unite the full
strength Of the party. Mr.. Murray is
that man and no better selection could
have been made In adjusting the diff
ferences the party and Mr.. Ashcraft's
friends who have been loyal to him will
see way in the future for political re-
ward for him. Just at this juncture,
however, defeat was almost certain. The
point was to avoid this il possible and for
Mr.. Ashcraft to get out Of the race This
he has done and we commend him for it.
His friends in Meade will at once appre-
ciate the situation and come up with a
solid Democratic vote for Murray. Brock
enridge was not bidding for the Senator
ship this year, but Mr.. Murrays accept
ance simplifies the situation. All Dem
ocrats will support him. The Populists
themselves do not oppose him, and hence
his chances for election are two fold in
advance OF Ashcraft. Mr.. Murray is a
statesman, a lawyer and man in every
way equipped for the position. The
NEWS does not need to extol him
before the people. The people know
him and know him we'll enoughto give
him their united support and thus make
the election OF a Democrat from this
district, TO the State Senate, assured.
