SUPERINTENDENT CARLETON.

The Inter Mountains advices from
Helena yesterday were to the effect that
State Superintendent Carleton has come
out in an open letter, severing his con-
nection with the peoples party n de-
claring his intention to hereafter affiliate
with the republicans. Mr.. Carleton has
long been identified with the populists as
one of the leading lights in that political
organization. In 1896 he was jointly
nominated by the populists and demo-
Gratis for the high office he now holds,
and was an influential factor in that
campaign in shaping the results of the
election.
Though the text of the gentleman's
letter is not before us, and we cannot
speak with authority as to the reasons
assigned for the change of party affilia-
tions. it is fair to assume that he has
become disguised with the political
methods of the democratic party. and
clearly foresees that through such lead
ers as Swede Murphy the populists are
likely to be again bound hand and foot
and turned over to the democracy to
drag bourbon chestnuts out Of the fire.
The bravery exhibited by the democracy
in 1898 has entirely disappeared. and 1t
realizes its inability as a party to stand
up before the wrath of an indignant
public in the coming campaign, unless it
a persuade the populists to hold it up
on one side and the silver republicans
to hold it up on the other side, and give
it IN opportunity to prove that 1t is not
wholly destitute Of human sympathy.
Mr.. Carleton is but one Of thousands of
self-respecting populists and silver re-
serve in the capacity Of q crutch for q

our Washington correspondent with be-

apologize for the offensive statement

that he told the truth: after declaring
that this paper was trying to "besmirch

the Pension Roll.

Nashville, Tenn, March 29.--Com-
missioner of Pensions II. Clay Evans
reached here yesterday to confer
with his Nashville friends in regard
to his candidacy for delegate-at-large
from Tennessee to the national re-
publican convention. Speaking of the
war pension claims following the
Spanish American war, Mr.. Evans re-
Marked
"rhere has been a considerable
number of claims filed as direct re-
suit of the Spanish-Ameriean war,
about 1000 Many of these claimants
have recovered, their disabilities hav-
ing been of a temporary character,
malaria and the results OF malarial
poisoning. When they came home
from the war they felt that their
health had been shattered and filed
claims for pensions. There have been
about 1000 pensions granted so far
growing out of the war. The casual
ties known as battle casualties We're
rot great during the whole year 1898.
The regular army, which did the most
of the fighting, had only 80 amputa-
tons and 10 of these We're fingers.
So far as know there was not a
single amputation in the navy as a re-
suit of the war,

RAILROAD CONTEMPLATED.
Plan to Build u Line In Western Iowa 10
Connect the Northwestern and Kansas
City Southern.

Omaha, Neb., March 2o-lt is com
mon talk in railroad circles here that
Il scheme is on foot to build n line OF
road in western Iowa to connect the
Northwestern and the newly reor-
ganized Kansas City Southern prop
erty. Two routes are under consld-
Grafton. One is to run from Des
Moines to Wintcrset. Creston, New
Market, Shambaugh, College Springs,
and intersect with the Omaha n st.
Louis at Blanchard, which connection
would make direct line practically
from Des Moines to Kansas City and
connect the Northwestern with the
Kansas City Southern. The other
route is from Des Moines to Winter
set, Greenfield, Corning, Clarinda,
College Springs, thence connecting
with the Omaha & st. Louis at Elmo,
Mo.
Promoters and contractors have re-
Gently been making careful study
of the country through which II Is
proposed to extend the new railroad.
Either of the proposed lines would
run through rich country and af-
ford valuable transportation accom-
modations to the section interested,
as direct accommodation would be
furnished with Chicago, st. Louis,
Kansas City, Omaha, Des Moines and
the territory tributary to the Kansas
City Southern line,

FREE DELIVERY.
POST OFFICE PASSES
THE $4,000 MARK.
The Town Is Now Entitled to Free
Delivery Once more and Efforts
Will Be Made to Get It-Rural

The postoflice receipts for the year
ending March 81 have overrun $lo,-
600. The amount cannot be known
until after the books are balanced
this evening but yesterday was sew.

1t is the first time since the boom
DAYS that this has been done and it
speaks volumes for the increasing
business Of the city. The business OF
Abilene is on the most substantial
basis ever known and everyone has
reason to rejoice on the advance be-
ing made.
Under the law the postoffice depart
ment may whenever towns receipts
are,oyer $4,000 order free delivery.
1t is optional with the postmaster
general but the rule has been that
where the town shows signs Of being
permanently prosperous and where it
| is believed that the increasing re-
ceipts are not merely the result OF a
boom, to order the free delivery sys-
TEN. Postmaster Waring will take
the matter up at once and endeavor
to secure a resumption OF the free
delivery which was once SO popular
Businessmen should take hold and
push on the matter and Abilene will
be strictly in the swim again
Postmaster Waring is also working
for two rural delivery routes-one
southwest and one north to Industry.
These routes when established have
proved very popular and exceedingly
helpful to the towns from which the
route agent starts as he transacts a
great deal Of shopping for the people
along the route. Congressman Cald-
erhead is favorable to the matter and
it is probable that the routes will be
secured.

had but fifty cents in his pocket, lie
went to Topeka and got job shifting
scenes in an opera house as starter.
He worked his way along, finally ap-
pearing on the stage and afterwards
managing company Of his own. He
made money and hung onto it till he
bad more. Last summer a man
named McMahan, who had been run
ming circus, died, and Mr.. Melon
aid saw an opportunity to make more
money. He bought the McMahan
circus and some other small circus
outfits and brought them to Abilene
for the winter. He has been buying
other circus and menagerie property
ever since, has had his wagons all re.
painted and will start out this spring
