public is promised a chance to patrOnize
three league teams next year. Unless
some one is bIuning or making some large
miscalculatiOn there will be interesting
times about the season when the flowers
begin to bloom again.
President Ban Johnson bids definance to
the National league with the announce
ment that the American league will be
doing business on the south side next

BOOM FOR MADDEN.
Emporia Democratic Paper Wants
Him Nominated For Congress.

The Emporia Democrat publishes the
following:
There seems to be a very strong and
almost universal desire on the part of the
Democrats and POpuliSts in this part Of
the state to bring John Madden out as
a candidate for congress against J. M
Miller Four years ago when there was no
possible chance to elect a Democrat or
POpuliSt, Mr.. Madden accepted the nom
inat1On and made one of the most remark
Two years later when there was a chance
to elect a congressman, Mr.. Madden in
the interest OF harmony. stood aside IN
order that a Democrat might be nonllnat-
ed.
AT present on the congressional ques-
tiOn the Republican party here IS split
wide open There is now and probably
will be in the next campaign, perfect har-
lists. If this condition of affairs continue
to exist there is but one thing to do, and
that is nominate Mr.. Madden for congress
from this district. He IS entitled to the
nomination and he can be elected If
that is done. the Democrats and POpu-
lists will have something to work for in
the Democrat and Populist parties, Mr.
Madden is in perfect harmony except ex-
panslon, and while good many Demo-
Gratis are opposed to it, there is posi-
of his party on this question The last
few weeks have developed the fact that
many of the ableSt Democrats of the ma
tiOn are in favor of expansion. While
counties the nomination belongs to John
Madden as man. Without saying any
thing to the discredit of any other man
who might be nominated, ne can go out
of Lyon county with 500 more votes than
any man who can be selected While Mr.
Madden has not consented to enter the
