FIFTH DISTRICT GOSSIP.
Populists Are Talking About Con-
gressional Candidates

While a fight is being organized in
the Republican ranks against the re-
nomination of Congressman Calder
head in the Fifth district next year,
the Populist situation in the same dis
trfct is in an extremely uncertain con-
ditiOn. There are a number of talked
Of candidates. but none of them have
thus far openly announced their candi-
dacy and there are still several counties
to hear from.
If Mr.. Calderhead is not defeated for
denomination by F. L. Williams of Clay
Center it would be natural for eX-COn-
gresham Vincent to be nominated by
the POpulists. But it is by no means
certain that Mr. Vincent would accept
the nomination. It is still an open QueS-
tion with him whether he wants to go
back to congress or not Friends are
urging w. D. Vincent to get into the
race, but there is a boom for governor
lurking around and it may be trOtted
out for Mr.. Vincent before the next
POpulist state convention meets.
Judge w Glass. of Marysville, has
been on the list of mentioned" but
Judge Glass believes that a bird in the
hand is worth two in the bush, and as
he has just been elected to a four year
term on the bench he is loath to give
it up to make an uncertain race for
congress.

Vincent was elected the majority given
him by Saline county was greater than

What renders the situation complex,
however, is the uncertainty of the in

has announced that he intends to set
tie down in Abilene and practice law,
but there is a strong suspicion that he
may shy his castor into the political
ring and become a candidate for con
gress in the Fifth district.
1t is by no means certain, however,
that Col. Little would become a candi-
date for congress, even if he makes up
his mind to go into politics again. Some
of his friends predict that he viii look

BEFORE THE BAR.
Notorious Buckner Family Again In
Police Court

Ella Buclner, The Queen of Smoky
Row" kept police court grinding for
an hour and half last night just be-
cause she and her husband, the motor
iOus George Buckner, persist in running
a dive on Smoky Row
Both of them carry collection of
scars extensive enough for a veteran Of
three wars. Beer bottles and lamps
instead of bullets and sabres made
them. When they have no one else to
fight they fight each other. Not long
ago the Queens head stopped the flight
of a lamp. Both the head and the lamp
were damaged. Then the husband and
wife made UP and all was quiet for
time. 1t is not unusual for the neigh
bOrs to hear the Queen yelling for dear
life because some one is getting gay
with a razor But such things hap
pen every day, or rather every night,

George and Ella Buckner for running
a disorderly house. The trial COM

NOTED TRESPASS CASE.
Settled by Arbitration After Being In
the Courts Eight Years.

Chippewa Falls. Wis, Nov. 22.-The
celebrated trespass case brought by the
John r. Davis Lumber company of
Phillips, Wis, against Fred Weyer-
hauser and the Mississippi River Log
ging company, was settled here by ar
bitFatiOn today. The case has been in
eight years.
In 1891 the Davis company bought a
section of land near Phillips from the
Mississippi River Logging company
and after the purchase the latter com
pany disputed the location of the line
and cut a portion of the timber on the
land. The Davis company insisted that
the line ought to remain where it was
assumed to be when they bought the
land. Mr.. Weyerhauser finally agreed
to pay the Davis company $3.50 cash
to have the matter dropped.
