Our hustling neighbOrS see what an
advantage is to be gained by having
the road, and their effort to get it
shows commendable enterprise on
their part. But, neighbOrs, when
Garrard county people 60 catin'
they 60 catin', and you are too late
to get on the band wagon. Our folks

We were very agreeable surprised
Monday to find our people warming
up and realizing the importance of
securing the Southern road for Garrard
county. When the road was first
talked of, there seemed to be luke
warmness among the people, but we
find this was caused by their belief
that the scheme was too good to be
true. Having been convinced that
the road is to be constructed, the
people are now enthusiastic on the
subject and little other talk was heard
on the streets. We heard expressions
from many over whose land it will
pass and nearly everyone of them ex-
pressed themselves as willing to give
the right of way, only claiming the
actual damage the road would cause
Them. TIE RECORD has said all
along that GaFrard had very few, II
any, people who would want to gonge
their own home people, and the man
ner in which land owners are coming
to the front in this matter goes to
prove our assertion.
As is always the case, some few wi !
throw cold water on this effort to get
the road, but chronic kickers sot n
kick themselves into the disgust 4
hustling people, and any effort to
pump land owners full Of hot air will
prove futile In this case. The people
realize the fact that the road means
the making of the county and II we
miss it we are forever shut out.
There has been much talk about the
road being run through Danville and
Stanford, but we are prepared to say It
win, most assuredly, be built through

POPULIST WRANGLE.
Disagree at Fort Scott Over Endorsing
a Republican Nominee.

Fort Scott, Kan, Aug. 26.-A dis
agreement between the Populist judi
cial district committee of the Sixth
district and the Populist county COM
mittee of this county has evolved an
anomalous situation in regard to the
judicial nomination. The POpulist cOun-
ty nominating convention recently
elected delegates to the judicial con-
vention and instructed them to vote for
the nomination of Judge Walter L. Sim
ons, the Republican nominee for judge.
The judicial committee today formally
disputed the county conventions auth
Ority to elect such delegates and called
another county convention for the pur-
pose. The secret of this action is that
the judicial committee has decided to
run W. o. BashOre, a former Populist
editor of this city, for judge.
The idea is to have the delegations
from Crawford and Linn counties un-
seat the SimOnS delegation and seat the
BaShOre delegation from this county
The county committee claims that the
judicial committee has no authority to
call a county convention. The judicial
convention is called to meet in this city
convention will meet here tomorrow
and indorse Judge Simons.
Judge BashOre was formerly Judge
of the Mckee district west of Wichita
and was defeated by Judge Mckee The
judicial committee, which is opposing
the action of the POpulist convention
of this county, is composed of Senator
Ryan, Crawford county, chairman; H.
A. Pritchard, Bourbon county, secre-
tary, and J. T. Poore, Linn county,
treasurer.

The witness concluded with saying:
THAT is all, Monster LIE President, re-
member nothing else"
Captain F'reystaeter was then re-
quested to definitely give his recollec-
tions concerning the production of a
secret document at the court martial
of 1894. His manner was quiet and col
lected as he replied: mot only did I
see them, but assure you tnat Maurel
had them in his hands. And what is
more, 1 assert that he made commen-
tary on each document as it passed
through his hands, Immense Sensa-
tiOn.)
HE JUST COULDN'T.
Col, Maurel, very pale, nervously pro-
tested against the use of the word
commentary" which caused much
laughter.
Il could not have acted as Captain
Freystaetter asserts" said Maurel, Il
was too conscious of my duty to allow
myself to influence in any way the
judges, whose president I was and if
what Captain Freystaetter has just
said in regard to me had been done in
my presence; if the president had at
tempted to exercise pressure on me as
a judge, if he attempted to influence
me, Notwithstanding his age, rank or
functions, would have reminded him
of his duty. I would not have waited
five years before coming forward to
provoke an audience in open court.
Il have finished. 1 will say no more
in reply to Captain Freystaetter."

HOT SHOT FOR OTIS.
Wounded Soldier Tells What
Men Think of Him.

o. E. Parker, returned hero of the
Philippine war, and a member of the
Twentieth Kansas volunteers, is in To-
peka for a few days, having stopped off
here on his way to his home in COffey-
Vile Mr. Parker is staying at the home
of J. NJ. Sherburne, at No 1924 Polk
street, North Topeka. AS a lasting re-
membrance of the war, he carries the
marks and results of an encounter with
a MauSer bullet, which tore its way
through his left shoulder and in COM
ing out went through his right arm,
paralyzing the arm from the elbow
down and it may be years before he
regainS the entire use of his right hand.
Between the 10th of February and
the 25th of March, Mr.. Parzer's com
pany was engaged in skirmishes and
several small fights, while part of this
time they were under a flag of truce.
On March 25th, they started to MalOlOSD
and in the battle OF Toloujon river, Mr..
Parker was wounded and taken to the
hospital From that time until June
oath, he was recovering from the wound
and on that date he left Manila on the
transport Morgan City, for San Fran
cisco, arriving there on July oath. On
the transport We're 493 other sick SOL
diers, including 67 Kansans.
In conversation this morning, Mr..
Parker said: Il am on my way home
and 1 am glad of it. I never expect to
enlist again to leave the United States,
but if could ever be of any service to
my country here, you may be assured
that snail offer my services, although
my discharge papers credit me with a
three-fOurths permanent disability.
Il want to say right here that the
boys are all in love with Colonel Fun
ston, or rather General Funston, as he
now is. He is the gamest little fighter
that ever lived, and would not hesitate
to walkup to the mouth of a loaded can
non if it was in his way. He knew ev-
cry move of the enemy, and was at the
head of his boys all the time. When he
was made a general, the boys all hated
to see him go away from them, as ev
cry one of them had grown to love him
for his kind treatment and bravery.
''As to Otis, I have very little to say.
The boys have very little use for him,
and they all feel that he is not the
right man in that place. He has kept
the volunteers on the firing line con-
tinuously, with no thought of their well
fare, while the regulars fresh and fit
apparently doing nothing. There was
no reason for the way in which he has
been treating the volunteers, for he had
plenty of men in reserve to fill their
places.
Il did not bring many relics and
keepsakes of the war home with me, as
the report was given out at Manila that
the custom house officials would not let
US bring them into the United States.
When we got to San Francisco, we
found that this was not true, so we
wrote right back to the other boys that
they could bring theirs, as we did not
been. The boys are so anxious to come
home that they are almost desperate
enough to capture a vessel and start
for Kansas"
