STATE POLITICS.
Congressman Vincent Seems to
Have Clear Field
In the Fifth District Among
the POpUlists.
HE WILL BE OPPOSED
BY Ex-COngressman Calder
head of Gold Tendencies.
But Gold Standard Sentiment
Hasn't Gained a Voter.
HE WILL BE OPPOSED

1t is foregone conclusion among the
Populist politicians that Congressman
W. D Vincent will be renominated as a
candidate for congress in the Fifth dis
trict by the Populists. The only oppo-
sition which Mr.. Vincent has expert
enced came from H. n. Gaines of Sail
ma who was state superintendent when
Lewelling was governor. Mr.. Gaines
opposed Vincent in the last campaign
but was defeated in the convention.
Mr.. Vincent has not taken any part
in the organization of the campaign,
but his friends have been working in
duStriOuSly and claim they have the
brightest prospects of being successful
in securing his denomination. He ex-
poets to come home in May, perhaps
earlier.
Mr.. Gaines has been regarded as a
candidate for the place but he dis
claims any such intention. He says:
Il am in no sense a candidate. There
is not and should not be any opposition
to Congressman Vincent. He will be re-
nominated and will succeed himself
There has been some talk of Q. B. Hom-
man of Enterprise but he declined and
declared that Mr.. Vincent lis a faithful
and conscientious representative and
should be given a second term" Then
Ed. Little was mentioned but he too,
Immediately declined and said: Mr..
Vincent should not be disturbed. He
is doing good work and will be renOmi-
mated without opposition. There is no
doubt in my mind about Mr.. Vincent
being able to carry the district. He
made a good fight in the last campaign
and deserves a second term"
All the available candidates have
been been brought out and have quickly
declined so thePOpulist politicians ngure
that Mr.. Vincent will be renOminated.
The Republicans will undoubtedly re-
nominate Mr.. Calderhead, who can
ideas, hope to gain any support from
the opposition.

HOW HORTON GOT IT.
Was a Dark Horse in the First Dis
trict Contest.

The Atchison Globe says: 1.-THE First
district Republican convention will be
held at Horton, instead of AtchisOn.
This information fell like a thunder
clap upon Atchison. It was thought
sure thing that the convention would be
held here. At Leavenworth, where 1t
was held two years ago, it was conceded
to be AtchiSon 5 turn next, but at the
meeting of the congressional committee
at HOIton, HiaWestha became a fOrmid-
able candidate, and then came the
most remarkable contest over the selec-
ton of a convention town in the history
of Kansas politics. There were eight
votes, and on the first ballot four were
for Atchison and four for Hiawatha.
This created a deadlock, and for 301
ballots there was no change. Finally
Black, of Jackson county, who had held
out for Atchison, Joined the Hiawatha
fellows on a compromise to SEND the
convention to Horton.
The contest over the location is re-
garded by politicians as the first gun Of
the campaign for the congressional
nomination, which will eliminate at
Horton on April u, the date of the con-
VentiOn. They say that w. J. Bailey,
one of the candidates for congress, is
responsible for AtchiSon'S failure to get
the convention. 1t is said that Brown
county will be be for Bailey, and that
for this reason, he wanted the conven-
ton held at HiaWatha. Both BrOder-
lex and Curtis were believed to favor
AtchiSOn as location for the cOnVen-
ton, but probably did not attach much
significance to the matter. 1t can make
but little difference to candidate
where a convention is held, if he has the
delegates. 1t is said that Q. D. Walk
6r'S candidacy, together with the local
sentiment that might have helped him
had the convention been held here, was
feared by the other candidates, which
may have had something to do with the
selection of Horton The fact that A.
J. White represented Atchison at the
committee meeting, as the representa-
tive of DR.. COpp, the regular committee
man, has resulted in the suspicion
with some that perhaps we did
not get a square deal, as White is not
resident of this place, and has never
been regarded as particularly friendly.
Jim Chisham, who knows a great deal
about politics says this is unwarrant-
ed; that Andy White made an honest
fight for the interests he represented"

BY AID OF KITES
It is Proposed to Photograph Ships
and Fortifications.

New York, March 2.-Wn. A. Eddy,
of scientific kite fame, offers to furnish
tandem kites for the use of the United
States navy at sea. Mr.. Eddy has sent
an application to Secretary Long for
purpose of photographing ships beyond
the horizon line at sea. He said today
that while in Washington several weeks
ago he had a talk with Assistant Sec
rotary Roosevelt, in which Mr.. Roose-
welt suggested that he make application
for a. test of his apparatus. Mr.. Eddy
saws that his experiments have shown
that a kite is much steadier at sea than
on land and that the mast of a battle
ship is an ideal place from which to fly
kites.
He said that in his letter to the navy
department he had pointed out that by
the use of kites carrying cameras
photograph of the smoke of a vessel at
a distance of 43 miles can be taken, and
the presence of an enemy not yet visi-l
BILE above the horizon can be detected.
He alluded to his apparatus as a day
searchlight, and said that it could be
also used from rapidly moving steam
launch to photograph the enemy's for
tifcations on land, a telescope lens be-
ing employed in the camera for that
purpose.
Mr. Eddy referred to the experiments
on Governors Island last year,in which
Lieut.. Wise was lifted ~ feet in the
air. and said that he could operate his
cameras by electricity, and had no
need. to send a man aloft to work them.

LONG IN THE SEVENTH.
Capt. Cannon of Garden City Points
Out a Weakness.

The congressional committee of the
Seventh district will meet at Hutchin-
son Friday for the purpose of selecting
a date and place for the convention,
of which Chester L Long hopes to be
the nominee for congress in the coming
campaign.
There are some Republicans in the
district who do not have the great re-
spect for Longs ambition that he would
wish. Among these is Capt Charles
Cannon of Garden City, an old soldier,
who says that he has letters from nu-
merous friends throughout the western
part of the district, in which they assert
that they will not support Mr.. Long in
the coming campaign.
Captain Cannon says: Mr. Long in
dispensing the postofices in our dis
trict has practically organized it
against himself He has frequently
promised all the candidates in partic-
ular town his support for the postoffice,
and then, turns around and selects a
man who has never been mentioned in
connection with the place This has
caused some people to grow tired of
Long and they have lost their opinion
of him as a leader. On the other hand
many believe that he is only follower
He is not the idol of the people as his
managers would have you believe but a
mere political hanger-on because he
wants Office. Public idols are things
of the past. We want a man who win
work and not pose"

BOSTON MEN INDIGNANT.
Wish to Know Why the Harbor of
Rockland, Me-, is to Have $780,
OOO-Boston Harbor Only
100000

Boston, March 2.-Strong pressure is
pelng brought to bear on the Massa-
chusetts congressman by the Boston
chamber of commerce in the hope that
the struggle to secure an increase in
the harbor appropriation may prove
successful There has been cOnsidera-
bic telegraphic correspondence between
the president of the chamber of COM
merce and Congressman Moody, who
seems to be doing the fighting for Bos-
ton The strongest argument that the
local people bring on the subject is that
Rockland, small seaport town on the
Maine coast, secures $500, 900, while Bos-
ton receives only $10O, 600.
Secretary Preston said, today. that
the Boston people were fighting against
great odds, owing to the strong infu-
ence welded by the Maine congressman
but that the Boston chamber of COM
merce will do everything in it's power
to bring about the much desired result.
A letter was sent today to Congressman
Moody, in which he was urged by the
chamber of commerce to continue along
the lines of yesterdays work, and that
the Boston business men were support
ing him to the best of their ability.

He charged that much of the opposi-
ton to this measure in the country
press had been reused by the publish
founded in fact
It has been charged, Mr.. Loud said.
that this bill was in the interest of the
express companies.
IF we don't get this business said
he, I don't care who gets it"
Mr.. Loud displayed to the house a
great amount of the literature with
which congress had been flooded by the
opposition to the bill and he produced
evidence that most of it had been in
spired directly by publishers who were
the benehciaries of what he termed the
governments bounty"
Mr.. Loud was besieged with questions
toward the close of his remarks. He
spoke for about two hours.
Mr.. Moon (Dem.. TENN, followed in
opposition to the bill. He declared that
the congress should discharge it's duty,
not to the press of the country, but to
the people. He conceded that there had
been an abuse of the second class mail
should be excluded from this privilege,
but he contended that in striking down
the evils this bill destroyed much of
the good. If the existing law and it's
construction cost the government $780,
DOC, 900 annually, the people were the di-
rect benef1ciaries.
Mr.. Perkins (Rep., Ia.), supported the
bill He had been inclined, as news
paper publisher. to support the bill be-
fore the amendment proposed by Mr..
Loud had been offered. Now he felt
that this amendment would remove any
objection any legitimate newspaper
could have to it.
Mr.. Kitchen CDem., N. c., attempt
ed to make a general political speech,
but was called to order by the speaker,
who announced that hereafter he pro-
posed to hold members strictly to the
subject under consideration by the
house. The rule, he said should be en-
forced impartially against both sides
Mr.. McAIillin, (Dem., Temp, sug-
gested that the enforcement of this rule
which he considered a departure from
the practice of the house, might lead to
the denial of the right of speech.
The speaker said that during his 20
years service in the house he had never
seen any danger of such a contingency.
At D. m, the house adjourned.

LOUD BILL UNDER FIRE.
Vote Will Be Taken at 4 O'Clock
Thursday.

WASHINGTON. March 2.-The house yes
terday entered upon the consideration
of the Loud bill relating to second-class
matter. The bill is identical with the
bill passed by the last congress, but
Mr. Loud, its author, gave notice OF an
amendment permitting the transmits
sion at pound rates of sample copies up
to ten per cent of the bona fide circula-
ton of the newspaper periodicals. This
amendment removes much oppOsltlon
to the bill Mr.. Loud made an exhaus-
tive speech in it's favor, claiming that
the government practically paid a sub
sidy of $4,000, 900 to the prOprietOrs of
publications which now got access to
the mails at pound rates as the cost OIL
transporting mail and its handling av-
eraged eight cents per pound. Mr..
Moon (Dem., TENN, spoke in oppos1-
ton to the bill and Mr.. Perkins (Rep.,
Ia.), in favor of it. The debate will
continue until Thursday, when the vote
will be taken at o'clock.
Second-class mail matter, by the bill
is restricted to newspapers and periodi-
Gals issued at least four times a year
from a known office of publication and
publications issued under the auspices
of benevolent or fraternal organlza-
tiOnS trades unions or others having a
membership of not less than one thOus-
ant. All publishers whose publications
are admitted as second-class mail mat
ter are required by the bill before de-
posting such mail matter in the post
office to separate it into United States
mail sacks or bundles, states, cities,
towns and counties, as the postmaster
general may direct.
Mr.. Loud chairman of the pOstoffice
committee, who had charge of the bill
explained before the debate opened that
the committee would offer an amend
ment at the proper time to allow the
transmission of sample copies by news
papers and periodicals not in excessive
of ten per cent of their bona fide circu-
lation. He yielded before taking the
floor to Mr.. HinFichsen CDem., Ill }, who
presented some resolutions adopted by
the Illinois press association endorsing
the bill with the amendment of which
Mr.. Loud had given notice. He read a
letter from Mr.. Day of the National
Editorial association, which declared
with this amendment the bill would
work no hardship to the newspap erS,
and met with the approval of the press
association of Illinois, Indiana and
Michigan. Mr.. Loud then took the floor
and submitted a general argument in
favor of the bill, dwelling particularly
upon the vast saving the bill would eff
feet annually. The deficiency in the
postal revenues was steadily increas-
ing. In 1896 it was $4,000, 600; last year
it was So, OOO, 900; this year it would be
a million and half mOre-an because
it cost the government S4S, 900 900 to
transport the second-class mail matter
of the country which yielded to the gov
eminent a revenue Of but $S.000,000.

The most important excretory organs
of the body are the kidneys. When they
fail to perform their work properly,
serious arrangement of all organs or
the body is sure to follow. It is impos-
sible for the body to retain effete mat
ter in its system and not become thor
pugly poisoned Impure and impOver-
shed blood, which IS unit to nOur1sh
the body, is the result, and, unless we
get rid of the poison by the prompt and
proper care of the kidneys, Bright's dis
ease or some other kidney trouble will
be induced, and eventually produce
death
The great medical discovery, Nor
rows Kidneoids, in yellow tablet form,
are made to meet every stage of the
disease as it may arise, by destroying

when it is fully under way, to suppress

Of the present century, not even DR..
Koch's Lymph, for the cure of con-
sumption, is doing so much for suffer-
ing humanity as MOrrOW'S Kidneoids.
Diabetes is another most common
kidney trouble, ranking next to Bright's
disease in it's terrible destruction. The
first symptoms, are failure of strength
and emaciatiOn. The mouth is pasty,
skin dry and hard, the bowels are con-
stipated, vomiting is frequent, the vision
besOmes dim, memory and intellect fails
and the temper becomes irritable.
In diabetes as well as Bright's disease
no medicine compares with MorrOWs

MANY ARMED MEN
Guarding Lake City, South Carolina
From the Wrath of the Col

Columbia. S. c.. March 2.-No male in

county, the scene of the burning out and
shooting of the Baker family slept last
night. Every road and path leading into
the town was guarded by armed whites,
who anticipated an attack by negroes. Ru-
mors of negroes arming had reached them
and a coIored girl brought word that the
town would be attacked and burned last
night. Negroes have been getting guns,
it seems but there was no demOnstra ton

citizens it was decided to keep indefinitely

ARIZONA ORANGE-GROWING
Experiments Have Been Quite Sue
cessful- Fruit Ripens Earlier
Than in California

Phoenix, Arizona, March 2.-Arizona
proposes to grow oranges. In this in
dustry the Salt Rivers valley leads at
present in the territory. 1t has long
been known that oranges could be
grown in the valley, but only in recent
years has there been any extensive
movement in the direction of tree plant
ing. There are eight hundred acres
planted in oranges in the valley thus
far, and the success which attended the
industry will result in the planting of
many new groves this spring.
OF the eight hundred acres, about
five hundred acres are now in bearing
and the others will soon begin to pro-
duce. The varieties of oranges grown
are about equally divided between the
Washington navel and seedlings. Here
the fruit ripens earlier, as a rule by two
or three weeks than it does in Califor-
MIA
