A New Political rlecca.

Friday nights Kansas City Star cen.
tained the following interesting cor
respondence from Wichita:
Chester I. Long, congressmaR.elect,
who moves 10 mysterious way his
schemes to unfold, has established
headquarters at the little town Of
Attica, in Harper county, where the
faithful come daily to commune With
him. Attica is twenty miles east Of
Medicine Lodge, Chester'S home, and
the train schedule permits pilgrims
to make the trip from Wichita aud
back the same day. Chester comes
down from Medicine Lodge every day,
returning at 5o'clock and, according
to his custom, he shrouds his stay In
mystery, and unless they be members
Of his personal cabinet, receives his
visitors one at time behind locked
doors and the conversation is 10 husky
whispered notes. This is Chester'S
way. Everything is on the "a. t."
when he calls conference, and below
a third floor the curtains are drawn.
This thing has been going on for ten
days and the secret only came out
through the inquiry Of travelling
man, who saw Chester at the Attica
hotel yesterday aud asked the land
lord wha, was going IN. The principal
visitors are Seventh district patriots,
but the conferences bear on state pol.
itics and through the agency Of Mort
Albaugh, the state chairman, Topeka
is in close touch. Statesmen who
make regular pilgrimages to this
short grass Mecca are Mort Albaugh,
Orie Morse, Andy Richards, Billy
Morgan, Lit Crum aud postmasters Of
the larger Seventh district towns.
Yesterday afternoon Mort Albaugb,
who was here with the new governor,
received telegram from Andy Rich
ards, and he made all haste to catch
the fast mail train for Topeka.

every ten cigarette smokers were tur1-
ed down. Doubtless that was the
cause in most Of the cases Of the re-
jected 5000. The Wilson Times. lately
referring to the rejection OF so many
Of the youth who volunteered in North
Carolina for the present war, said
this. and it is another important testi-
mony against the deadly cigarette
that Stays its thousands:
The deadly cigarette, il is said, was
the cause OF the rejection OF many OF
h applicants for enlistment in the
volunteer army from North Carolina.
The slowness with which the compan-
les were recruited because OF the re-
lection Of so nan by the surgeons
might have caused the report that
went abroad that North Carolina
would not be able to furnish her COM
plement Of men.
AT any rate, the remarks Of the
surgeons who examined the men
should cause my cigarette smoker to
think a long, long time before he con-
sumes these health destroying agen-
cies. If our people grow up into a race
Of cigarette smokers they can't help
but degenerate in mind and body. Use
the cigar and pipe, they are far health
