\ LETTER RELIEF FUND.
Kansas Farmers Show Gratitude for High
Prices OF Wheat.

|
Newton, Kan, Aug. 10.-A Letter
Melief fund has been started in good
faith by Harvey county farmers
They propose to lay aside one cent
for each bushel out OF the proceeds
or the sale Of the new wheat and give
the money to the Letters in appreci.
alton of the fact that they doubled
the price Of corn and wheat. Tho
movement originated with Capt. f.
D. Barnes, a leading Harvey county
farmer, who issued the following
proclamatun:
"Mr. Letter the elder is selling
valuable Chicago property and mort:
gaging more to raise millions of dol
lars to meet the losses incurred by
his son IN his efforts to keep up the
price of wheat during the past croE
year. | notice, also, that lie had tt
give up one charitable enterprise
that had been costing him about
Sl 900 per month to maintain. The
operation Of making very dear wheat
IN foreign countries created Il de-
lnand TOR cheaper brcudstuI1. We
had, during the high price Of wheat
in tie past year, an immense amount
Of corn. The expectation OF corn in
consequence OF high-priced wheat.

this country. 1t taught the Euro.

with cooking Kitchens attached, fol
that same purpose, and if wheat bad

years proceeding, corn in k;lnsa:
would not have been worth over II
cents d b@lSncl ...~
"ln view, then, OF the great gail
the farmers have received from tic
Letters in their efforts To sustain Ulll
grain prices and the opening up tx
the world more fully than was cycl
done before our other great staple
corn, it would be most fitting to show

The Proclamation of Capt. Barnc:
was enthusiastically received BY tho

The election boards OF the several
precincts in this city and county con-
sist Of three qualified electors in each
precinct, one inspector and two judges.
These election boards are appointed by
the board of county commissioners.
Tie board Of county commissioners
consists OF Mr.. Ryan, Mr.. Boyce and
MIR. Nicke.son, two fustonists and one
Republican. Mr.. Ryan is a candidate
for reelection.
The election boards have already
been appointed. In making these ap-
pointments the fusion board Of county
commissioners was careful in every in
stance to see that two out Of
three members of every election
board in this county are fu-
sionists Mr.. Nickerson. the sole
Republican member Of the board OF
county commissioners, was not even
allowed to name one single inspector
Of election in his own or any other
district. although a Republican board
of county commissioners had permitted
Mr.. Heaton. fusionst and the mi
nority member of the board. TO name
the inspectors in his own, the third
commissioner district. AS rule the
inspector Of election calls off the vote
when the ballots are being counted.
The action Of the present beard of
county commissioners is arbitrary and
unjustiflable to say the least.
But this is not all. The fusionists
have issued instructions TO at least
some Of the fusion members of the
election boards that the two clerks OF
election, who receive their appointment
from the election board, must both be
fusionists
When the Republicans were in power
in this county, at least one member Of
each election board was always either
q Democrat or Populist, and this Dem
ocrat or Populist member Of the board
was always permitted to select one OF
the clerks of election.
The election clerks keep the tally OF
the votes when the ballots are being
called off by the inspector or one Of
the judges. AS the certificates Of cleo
ton are based wholly upon the tally
kept by the clerks. 1t can be readily
seen that when both clerks Of election
belong 10 the same party. opportunity
is given for committing most fragrant
frauds.
The Post-IntellIgencer calls public at
tention TO this unprecedented and
most outrageous abuse Of au nority by
the fuslouists. and warns Republicans
in every precinct of King county 10 be
on their guard.
