Prescott, Ariz.. Sept. 26.-(Special cor respondence of the RepublicanD-Dr. McCandless and family have decided to leave the town. and locate in Califor- mia for a year or longer. Dr. McCand less son expects to graduate next year from the medical department of Ann Ann Arbor University. and will then join the family in their new location.

from the contention at present exist
ing in the latter county.
Wilson-co. Republicans can display
good, common political sense and at
the same time show a laudable local
spirit by keeping aloof from alliance
with or extending compliments to
.Neosho-co. candidates, when it comes
to choosing delegates to Chauute
next Friday. The feeling should be
that this district must have the right
candidate; that If Neosho-co. cannot
furnish him Wilson must be granted
a fair and just opportunity to do so.
Elect delegates to the Senatorial
convention who are unpledged to any
Neosho-co. candidate and thus be in
position to act untrammelled and for
the best interest and the final success
of the Republican party in this Sena-
torial district.

The Senatorial Situation.

We give below an article that ap-
pcared last week in the Wilson Coun
ty Citizen on the senatorial question
which doubtless reflects the views OF
the Republicans Of Wilson county:
The township caucuses in Wilson
co. for the choosing Of delegates to
the Republican Senatorial convention
will be held next Friday afternoon,
the Goth. The convention will be held
at Chanute on the Monday following.
There has not been general and fer
vid interest yet manifested in the
Senatorial question IN Wilson-co. In
the first place, local politics in this
county has not been forwarded by the
holding of an early county convention.
Secondly, Neosho-cOunty has been
claiming since four years ago that
this year was her turn to furnish the
candidate for Senator. While wilson
co. Republicans have not entered up.
on debate or argument in DENIAL it is
true that they have not formally con-
coded this point or claim. This coun-
ty has, however, been quiescent, await
ing the showing which NeoSho might
make in It's methods, the degree Of
harmony attending its action, the uni
ty of Republican desire and purpose
for the achieving of ultimate success
in November, and then to note the
character aud standing of the candl-
date Ne0sho-co. might ask WilSon-co.
to spprove and support.
These are things which the Wilson
co. delegates owe it TO their party to
earnestly and carefully consider when
they 60 to Chanute on the 23d
Neosho-co. has three avowcd and
active candidates for Senator. Each
has portion Of the delegates thus far
selected. Word comes that much fric-
ton has been created, as well as per-
sonal feeling and local antag0nism, so
that no matter who among he NeU-
sho candidates may be chosen, there
is serious danger Of such general sup
port not being given him by all fac
tiOns and localities in that county as
will assure the nominee the full parry
vote. There are NeJsho.co. politi-
clans who have been fearing this stu
alton for some time. 1t is now al
legged to be almost at the point of real
ization.
Wilson-co. Republicans want to
vote for Il candidate for Senator who
can be elected. If NeOsho-co. is to
name the man she must present an
acceptable onc-one whom
all her own Republican voters can
cordially and sincerely and untedly
fight for throughout the campaign.
Wil:on-co. is prepared to offer a
candidate as strong and popular as
can be found in the district. Neo-
sho-co, would probably sustain him
more enthusiastically than she would

Burglary

The store of Bloomheart Wright &
Co. was broken into last Tuesday
night and number of articles of
clothing were taken. They gained
access to the store by prying up a
back window The thieves were very
considerable evidently only taking
such articles of clothing as they could
wear. One of them being barefooted,
he had evidently fitted himself out
with new pair of shoes and taken an
extra pair or two for Sunday. An
attempt was made to track the thicv-
es with dogs but nothing could be
done.
