Hopeful Wasn't There.

As we reached the top of long hill the
driver looked back over the road and ut
tered grunt, and as we turned our heads
we saw strange figure half a mile away
on the back of a galloping mule. Three
or four minutes later 1T was near enough
to be recognized as a woman, who was
mounted man fashion on the animal As
she reached us she pulled the mule up
with a whoa, nowl" and after getting
her breath she asked of the driver:
Say, now, hev you got a passenger
aboard named Hopeful Davis?''
''NO such man, ma 'am,'' replied the
driver.
''Man with reddish hair, bow backed,
squint to one eye, about 40 years old, - she
continued as she carefully eyed she three
passengers on top of the coach.

The ballot was taken for the long
term and it resulted the same, its an
nouncement being greeted with another
long and loud demonstration.
At 1915 D. m. the house adjourned
and the hall was used for a jollification
meeting with the crowd singing Praise
God. from whom all blessings flow
The vote in the senate for the long
term stood 10 for McKissOn and II for
Hanna, the same as on the ballot for
the short term. With the II in the
senate and Sc in the house, Hanna had
just the requisite votes for his election
with all present, but with the absence
of Representative Cramer CDem.), who
is dangerously sick, Hanna has one to
spare.
A remarkable scene took place in the
senate chamber when the vote from the
house was announced, the Republican
senators inspired by the announcement
stood in their chairs and upon the floor
and shouted themselves hOarSe with
calls for Hanna and victory. Nothing
like it was ever seen in the Ohio sem
ate chamber.
What's the matter with Hanna %
they shouted, and the answer came
back: Hes all right
1t was several minutes before the
house vas cleared.
The senate and house both adjourned
until 10 o'clock in the morning, a joint
resolution was adopted to meet in joint
conference at noon tomorrow to can
vaSs the vote cast today for senator.
McKisson had a majority of two in the
senate today and Hanna of three over
all in the house, there was no election
de jure but there was a de factO cleo
ton. There is nothing to prevent
changes tomorrow from the votes of
today but none is expected as the can
vaSs was close and thorough.

SKETCHES BY NJ. QUAD
Sust a Business Call.

Some of the boys had told the man in
charge of the cattle yards at Abilene that
the duffer in charge of the freight outfit
over on the hill had referred to his personal
appearance in disrespectful way. The
cnttleman thereupon twisted the tails of
three or four refractory steers and an
nounced that he would go over and make
the freighter eat grass or fill him full of
lead. He didn't go at once, however. lie
waited until he got real mad and until he
could clean up his guns and sharpen the
point of his bowie knife and tell about the
number of men he had killed down in
Texas. He might not have gone at all had
not his crowd suggested that he had a dig
nifty to maintain and that the eyes of the
civilized world were upon him. After de-
laying the matter as long as he could the
cattleman announced that he was ready.
He buckled on his guns and showed a knife
down his boot leg. He looked ugly. He
looked ferocious. There WASH t the slight
est doubt that he thirsted for gore and
hankered after graveyards. There was
only one reason why the boss of the cattle
men should call on the boss of the freight
ers. That reason was death.
The freighter was a small man of hum
BILE looks and quiet demeanor. He sat I'M
der wagon eating his dinner when the
cattleman came staggering up, expecto-
rated over his left shoulder and hoarsely
demanded:
HAS this yere outfit got n man at the
head of it-a man as wears bOOts?"
''She has, was the quiet reply.
''Does be know gun from a steers
hind leg?''

even question of parties 1t arises
high above both and involves the con-
servatlon of our Republican system of
government. The simple question is:
Shall the peoples rule, as the founder
of our government, be ended?
When the peoples agents cannot be
trusted to execute their expressed viii
that moment marks the decadence and
fall of the republic.
We appeal to Governor Bushnell to
exert his influence now to stay this
threatened assault upon constitutional
government. We, as his constituents,
cling to the hope that he will not fail to
heed the voice of the party which twice
elected him governor; the voice of the
mighty people of the state of Ohio, and
the obligations of good citizenship and
good government, all representations
to the contrary Notwithstanding; and
that he will draw the line of his oppo-

as to justify the hope that he will in

violating the instructions given by the
people to their representatives. It is
true that he has no vote in the selec-
ton of a senator; he has no vote on
any other matter subject to legislative

We must reject the reports that any

WHY DID LUEBBERT SKIP.
4 Mysterious Proceeding Y
Should Be Cleared Up.
Which

When the preliminary trial of H. Ed
wards and F. Anderson, the confidence
men, was called before Justice Guy.the
man who had been robbed and who
gave his name as E. r. Luebbert, did
not appear.
As he was the only witness upon
which the men could be held, the case
was continued, and the men will pro-
badly be discharged when the case is
called again Wednesday.
The disappearance of Mr. Iuebbert
was somewhat remarkable, for he told
the county attorney that he would re-
main until after the preliminary hear
ing.
The two confidence men had about
$780, besides what they took from Lueb-
BERT and it is safe to say that, they Will
not have it when they leave Topeka.
When the two officers from Justice
Guys court went to the city prison for
the confidence men, they were told that
they were in conference with Chief
Steele in his private office. While they
were waiting for the conference to end,
Luebbert came down the stairs from
the office of the chief, and made a bee
line for the hotel, where he paid his
bill and left as fast as he could go.
Some time after Chief Steele brought
the confidence men down and turned
them over to the constables who had
been kept waiting an hour. A long
enough time elapsed between the exit
officer with the confidence men
to give Luebbert time to get to
the depot and take the train.
When the case was called for trial,
of course Luebbert could not be found.
Chief Steele seemed greatly surprised
at his disappearance. About o'clock
in the evening he called upon Deputy
County Attorney Galen Nichols.
Z would just like to know who was
behind this business of hustling Lueb-
bert out of town." said Steele to Mich
OILS.
That is something I would like to
know myself" said Nichols. THE re-
sponsibility rests between the police
department and the sheriff's Office
Chief Steele said no more, but the
sheriff's Office has been saying ever
since.
The question now is, what transpir-
ed at that conference between the
confidence men and Chief Steele and
Prosecuting Witness Luebbert, and
why did Luebbert leave so suddenly
after the conference?
When the confidence men were ar
rested they offered Sergeant Owen all
the money they had to be let go.
