COUNTY PRISONERS
TO BE PUT ON THE ROCK PILE
Public Roads to be Bedded With
Stone.

Yesterday forenoon the county commits
sioners formally took up the matter of
piking the wagon roads that lead into
Wichita. This is one of the most import
ant undertakings for Wichita and Sedg
wick county that has been commenced
for years. The long stretch Of sand on
Maple street road coming into Wichita
from the west by the Masonic home has
been the subject of more complaint than
any other one thing Of local disadvantage
in the county.
The commissioners yesterday took &C
ton to ship in stone. The county prison
ers will be put to work to breaking it,
after which it will be hauled out and put
on the roads leading into the city.
Work will commence first on Maple
street road on the West Side and 1t viii
be scattered with rock for two miles out.

COMPANY OF COLOR
Leedy Says He Cannot Accept
Them.
BARRED BY ARMY RULES
Committee Will Wait on Him
tuesday,

telegram from the company of col
failed to get any reply. and committee
of Wichita citizens waited on him yester-
day IN regard to the matter. He said he
would be glad to have the Wichita COL
ored patriots mustered In, but the United
States army regulations forbid the mus
terIng Of colored troops into a white regi-
ment. But for that he would be glad 10
accept the Wichita company. Monday
night a meeting Of the colored company
Will be held in Judge Enoch's Office. and
a committee appointed to 60 to Topeka
TO inform the governor that other states
have colored troops. Only recently COM
pany OF the Sixth AIassa chusetts color
ed was mustered in. the only colored COM
pany in the regiment. If = person appeal
TO Governor Leedy fails, the company
VIII offer to the war department direct.
W. A. Belts. one Of the prime movers
in the organization Of tho company, said
yesterday:
I'VE are getting along very well, and al
though we have received no reply as yet
from the governor. believe he will do the
proper thing by US when he has opportu-
nifty to consider the matter carefully.
You see right now the governor is be-
sieged by an army of patriotic offce-seek-
ers and they consume most of his time
and no doubt make life burden for him
for the time being"
How about the rumor that Governor
Leedy refuses to muster a colored com
pany into white regiment?" the reporter
asked.
Il have heard Of no such refusal Some
of our friends who consulted the governor
yesterday in regard to the matter, were,
as I understand. informed by Mr. Leedy,
that in his opinion the war department
would not permit colored companies Of
volunteers in white regiments, and that
It would be impossible to get a colored
regiment in this state. In my judgment
the governor is mistaken. for It was only
two weeks ago that a company of colored
men with cOlored officers was sworn into
the Sixth infantry of Massac husetts, and
is known as company L, Sixth infantry,
NJ. V. NJ. With the exception Of company
L the entire regiment is white and is now
in the service of Uncle Sam. I believe
Kansas could furnish a regiment of pref
citizens. but if not allowed a regiment
why not battalion of four or six COM
panies Of cavalry?
1T is only natural that coIored men
should feel a deep interest in freeing Gu
ba and standing as they always do, loyal
20 "Old Glory" and I am yet confident
that Governor Leedy win treat the color
ed volunteers fairly, and give them an
opportunity to rally round the flag.
The colored men composing the COM
pany have in no way dispaired and most
Of them feel confident that they will vet
smell powder in this Spanish-American
war. They will hold a meeting in Judge
Enoch's Office tomorrow night and a com
mittee Will be appointed to wait on the
governor, and if no provisions can be
made to receive colored troops. the COM
pany will then tender its services direct

GOES FOR SEATON
Prohibition Gibraltar of To-
peka For AtchiSon Man.
TWENTY-FIVE DELEGATES
Are Added to SANKEY'S Vote
in Montgomery and Wilson

A special tho the Eagle from Topeka
last night says:
In the Shawnee county primaries held
heretoday, John Seaton carried every
ward in the city of Topeka and Potwtn.
The latter is the prohibition Gibraltar of
Shawnee county. but Seaton's victory was
compare lively easy, probably more on &C
count Of the close organization of Sea-
tons forces and the long and industrious
campaign Seaton has made than anything
else. Dave Mulvane managed the Seaton
fight, and Marshal Billy Sterne the cam
paign OF Hessin and the forces opposed 10
Seaton. When the county convention is
called 1t Will be found that Seaton has
practically every delegate in the body.
The sentiment here tonight among the
enti-Seston men is that the result Of to-
days primaries Will be Of advantage to
the candidacy Of Stanley.
County conventions were held in Mont
gomery and Wilson counties yesterday,
and the Eagle was advised by specials
that the twenty-five delegates are for
Stanley for governor without any special
favor for any Of the candidates for other
places on the ticket. This puts the total
number of votes for Stanley so far as
delegates are elected at about LAO.
