SENATOR EARI.ES SUCCESSOR.

As stated in Fridays paper Gov. FL

The vacancy caused hy the death Of
Senator Earle to serve until the meet
ing Of the I.cgisl sl,turr. He is quoted
as saying that he will cndravor to
place himself in the place of the poo
pie and make such appointment as
would meet their approval.
This he may bc able to do but ii will
he very difficult matter to say Nhum
the people would lcct if left to Il pri-
mary.
There arc many good men and able
too who would be delighted to receive
the appointment and also TO be pcrmu-
ncnt successor to Judge Earle. And
We do not blame u ON. There seems
quarters favorable to Congressman Me
Laurin for this p sti II. but we are
Mt SO sure that he would he the choice
of the lcoplc.
Then EN-Gov. Evans is quoted rs
saying he will be in the race in case
there is primary and Senator May
field, of Bambcrg. we understand, is Il
pronounced cancidatc for the place
and there are numbers Of others fig
uring on it, and trying to deal the
cards for a winning hand. Then Scnu-
tor Geo. S. Mower, Of Ncwbcrry, might
bc an availabIc irun~-learncd, conscr-
vativc in his views and very popular
wherever h own, he would put up Il
strong fight If he were To determine to
enter the race.
At present if there hc II primary the
race is not won hy Il long ways. We
very much regret the necessity Of an
other campaign this summer but in the
prescul conditions it seems almost in
evitahlc. We hope the best man may
win and that South Carolina will have
Il representative in the United States
Senate worthy to ill the place made
vacant by the death Of the lumrntcd

last evening at B. of L. F. hall and
made further preparations for their

interest and enthusiasm shown by
those attending. There were Is ladies
and q gentlemen in attendance last ev-
ening, and every one took part in the
promotion of their purpose. The OBJ
ject of this meeting was principally to
decide upon the decorative designs and
appoint proper committees to attend to
the decoration. Some of the ladies who
made very good suggestions along the
line of decorative designs were: Mes
danes Charles Weddle, Sherman Lup-
her, VIII Jones. W. 5. Murray, Robert
Boswell, Sherwood and Richard
Meade. After the different ideas of
scented, Mesdames w. s. Murray, w. H
Hart, Richard Meade, Frank T. Irland,

on decoration. Mrs. Charles Weddle
and Mrs. w. S. Murray were appointed
to go to Wichita and secure fancy pa
per for use in decorating and any 9TH
er articles required in making the prop
er designs. Instructions have been re-
ceived from the Topeka authorities

parade must be led, and not driven or
ridden. This precaution is taken to
prevent accidents. Following these in

statement made by Herman Mack, the
husband of Mrs. Augusta Mack. who,
with Martin Thorn. is charged with the

Der of years.
Mack states that his wife made living,
through Illegal operations, involving the
mothers of children. He said that she
was an associated midwife, but that she
never had diploma.
At one time, Mack states, there was as
many six dead infants preserved in
spirits in bottles in their house. He also
states that she murdered from two to
three children every year.

ISOLATED in all the details with number
of physicians. He also drags in under
takers names, charging all of them, both
physicians and undertakes, with COM
plicity with his wife. He says they aided
her in making away with the bodies of
the children. Mack further alleges that
many of the children We're born dead, the
result of Mrs. Nack's illegal business.

FoRNEY,s BOOMERANG.
How His Resolutions AgainstGovern-
or Leedy Were Turned Into an
Endorsement

Senator Forney of Belle Plaine, who
came to Topeka early this week to as
sure Governor Leedy that he was not a
candidate for governor himself, was dis
appointed and made an effort to see the
governor at Arkansas City yesterday.
Senate Forney is in a peculiar posi-
ton just ar this time and he is very
DESTROYS of .'squaring'' himself with the
administra ton. In the Sumner coun-
ty convention Mr.. Forney, treasuring
an ambition to become a candidate for
governor himself, strongly supported
resolutions against Governor Leedy- The
fight was short and decisive. Before
the committee which had charge of the
resolutions Senator Forney made a Sc
cret fight, but the chairman of the COM
nittee took the fight upon the floor of
the convention and succeeded. after a
brief struggle, in defeating the propo-
sition to denounce the administration
and secured the adoption OF resolutions
