MY COUSIN, THE SENATOR.
Billy Buchan Related Through Mar
riage to Marcus A Hanna

Billy Buchan, who wants to represent
the Second district in congress, figures
that he would be the strongest member
that could be sent from the state be-
cause he is confident that Mark Hanna
would assist him in everything that he
attempted.
The reason is, that Mrs. Buchan, the
estimable wife of this shrewd politician,
is a cousin of the Ohio senator.
The Second district convention will be
composed of SO delegates. Buchan will
start in with probably 81; Jack Harris
will have %; BowerSock will have II;
Smith of Linn z; Gates of Bourbon 10.
The three leaders claim that they will
win because of holding the key to the
situation" The lowest men say they
will win because the others will have to
come to them, being unable to secure a
nomination without effecting a compro-
mise.
the crowd and may win in this year of
deals and combinations.

Branch for 10 years in Atchison and
Greenleaf is making substantial i'm
provementS in his Greenleaf residence
property.
An annoyance which the Central
Branch company ought to remedy, is
frequently holding the west bound pas
senger and mail train at Yuma, to con-
meet with the mixed train on the Pros
ser branch. There is no good excuse
pany shouldn't leave Prosser an hour
earlier and make the connection on
schedule time. The frequent waiting is
annoying to passengers.
The Greenleaf railroad boys are con-
templating recruiting company among
themselves and tender their services to
Secretary of War Alger. Recruiting is
now going on. Among them the follow
ing officers will command the company:
tain; w. A. Priest, engineer first lieu
tenant; Chas. Veal, engineer, second
lieutenant, and B. Martin, yard switch
man, orderly sergeant. The several ex-
ira brakemen who live here will be
made corporals.
For the first five days last week there
was hauled out of the Central Branch
country through Greenleaf 1872 cars of
stock, as follows: Monday As car loads;
Tuesday, AZ; Wednesday, "a; Thursday.
&c; Friday, II. From Greenleaf to Atch-
handled. Stock cars have been so
scarce on the Central Branch division
that a train load or two of cattle have
been driven from Lenora and shipped
on the Rock Island.
c. L. Hewitt, formerly agent of the
Central Branch at Scottsville has been
promoted to the Cawker City station.

PAYING IT'S INTEREST.
Santa Fe Despite Heavy Expenses
Makes a Good Showing.

Since the beginning of the present ifs
cal year the Santa Fe road has relaid
its main tracks between Chicago and
Kansas City, except 115 miles between
Fort Madison and Marceline, with IS
pound steel rails, which cost $275,000.
This was paid out of the earnings and
charged to operating expenses
Notwithstanding this and other heavy
expenditures of the same nature, the
road has earned in the ten months of
the year already passed enough to pay
the full years interest on its general
mortgage 4 per cent bonds and 4 per
cent on its adjustment bonds.
