A Jefferson County Boy,

Hen. E. D. McKeever, the we'll
known Topeka member of the legislG-
ture, is receiving letters every day
from members of the legislature as
suring him OF their support for
speaker. Mr.. McKeever has already
served two terms in the legislature,
and ranked as one of the best parlia-
mentarians and ablest members of
the lower house. Two years ago he
was one of the leading candidate, for
speaker and his friends believe that
this time he will be sue cessful. He
is not the candidate of either senate
rial faction, but is running on his
merits.-Mail and Breeze.
