However, il vas served at the first gen.

coffee or with Postum, and the vote was
for Postum without one dissenting voice.
The ladies fiOcked about the cook 70 as

the Ma jorities for the Republicans are
Due to the Work of the n etropolitan
Police Commission of Wichita.
Jocelyn and Spencer have troubles
coming yet. 1t is said upon authority
that Leedy will now abolish the metro
pohtan police system of Kansas. A few
weeks ago he said ne wouldn't but there
has been nelection since then, and
there nave been Republican majorities
recorded in every county where the po-
lice system is in force. Leedy decided
to retain the system for his political
good, but ne viii abolish it for the same
purpose If he can see it that way, and il
begins 70 look az il the matter was
dawning upon him in the light suggest
ed. The Populist leaders oe the state
over are in Topeka and they are urging
him to wipe out the metropolitan police.
A dispatch from Topeka says:
with the governor abolish the metro
politan police departments in the vari-
GUS large cities? is a question that Is
agitating the minds OF the other Popu-
list state officials today. Leedy's only
excuse for keeping the police was TO
help his party at the elections; ne open
iy admitted this a few months ago. At
thattime the other Pop official, told him
that the police would do the party more
injury than good, but the governor would
not believe il. Last year the Pops car
rled four Of the six counties in which
cities with metropolitan police depart
ments are located. This year the Re
publicans carried every county contain
ing these cities.
Leedy is now exercised himself. He
realizes that the other state officials
knew what they were talking about. He
has been jumping around today like
chicken with its head cut off, and rumor
has it that he is getting ready to abolish
the entire system. Railroad commission

The Populist loss was in the city Of
