MAINS A REPUBLICAN.
Jewell County Man Decides to Sup
port Mckinley.

G. w. Mains, of Jewell county, who has
been identified with the Populists for sew
era1 years, visited Topeka Thursday,
transacting business at the state house.
Mr. Mains made no secret of his recent
change of heart politically, and says that
he is this year in the Republican ranks
and for the election of Mckinley.
4 have been working with the Bryan
forces until a short time ago, but 1 am
now with the Republicans, and propose
to stay with them during this campaign.
Il have had enough of the currency de-
probation and anti-patriotism business in
mine, and l have no desire to affiliate
with party which insists that we take
to our heels in the Philippines and OPP
poses expansion, at the same time pro-
claiming that this country is not now
prosperous. Times are away yOnder bet
ter now than they were when Bryan was
prophesying financial disaster if he was
not elected president I do not believe
that kind of stuff. I Joined a party

BUSINESS MEN REBEL.
Kansas City Merchants Are Angry
Over Location of Federal Building.

Wyandotte county is likely to jump
over into the POpuliSt column this fall
unless a quarrel over the federal
building now in progress between the
business men and the politicians is
patched up. The people are in an up
rising against the Republican politi-
clans claiming that they have been
misused in the location Of the new post
office building.
The Kansas City, Kan, chamber of
commerce, an organization of business
men sustained under a state charter
IS the principal mover in this fight. The
situation is thoroughly explained in a
letter which is being sent out calling
attention to the methods by which 1.-The
treasury department at Washington
mas WrOnged and injured the merchants
and manufacturers and people of our
city by ignoring their wishes, petitions
and interests in the matter of locating
the federal building which is to be
erected here; and also to ask your as
sistance in obtaining an investigation
by congress.
"A few political bosses, whose inter-
ests are at one end of the city, have
fhWarted the wishes of three-fourths of
our business men-Over 500 firms-and
four-fifths of our citizens, by influence
ing the government officials to locate
the pOstOhice building in their end of
the town, where it will be forever out
of the way for nine-tenths of the citi-
ZenS and business interests of the fu-
ture Kansas City, as it is to-day for
three-fourths of our present population
and business interests.
''Old Wyandotte. alone, without con-
solidation with old Armourdale and old
Kansas City, could not possibly have
secured an appropriation from congress
for a public building. The three old
cities combined were able to make
showing that secured an appropriation
Old Armourdale and old Kansas City
do ninety-five per cent of the business
of the city, and yet, in the selection of
a location for the federal building their
wishes and petitions have been utterly
ignored.
This is a matter of great Importance
to Kansas City, Kan, and to the gov
eminent itself. In the interest of the
government alone, the matter ought to
be investigated by congress and the
location changed.
when government officials intrusted
with locating public buildings ignore
Justice, facts. arguments and the wish
es of the people, and consider only the

MEN OF AFFAIRS
Need Proper Food Co suppIy die Brain


The Medical Sentinel" comments on
the restless brain worker of our large
cities and refers to the fact that he
thinks he knows as much about the
needs of the brain, when he is tired and
shows brain fag, as a trained practi-
fioner.
He is inclined to spur up the tired or
Sans by some stimulant or perhaps
quiet its complaints with the narcotic
of tobacco, and this plan goes on until
suddenly he collapses, for brain flag is
a sure sign that the elements that COM
pose the brain are being more rapidly
used up than replaced by the food.
There is really a choice of but two
pathways for an active brain worker
man of affairS-When he shows Symp-
quit work or he must have food that
will replace the structure of brain and
nerve centers as rapidly as they are
used up each day.
Chemical analysis of the particles
thrown out through the pores of the
body shows that after continued brain
work. a large portion of excreta con-
tainS phosphate of potash. 1t is known
that when this element is furnished by
the food in proper quantities, the SyS-
tenn unites it with albumen and from
that compound makes the gray matter
that fills the nerve centers and the
brain.
This is an especial feature of the food
known as Grape-Nuts, a delicious,
ready-cooked and predigested breakfast
food.
a definite and well understood gain in
brain power and physical strength will
set in after Grape-Nuts have been used
eight or ten days, and sustained and
continued brain work can be carried on
if a reliance is placed upon the food in
connection with the ordinary food of
the day.
Grape Nuts Food is sold at all first
class groceries.

Appeals.

Larry Sheehan who runs the Clipper
restaurant has at last been found guilty
of selling liquor. He was arrested July
10 and his trial came up yesterday even
ing in the police court. The usual num-
Der of witnesses who were troubled with
weak and failing memories were pres
ent, but there were present also two
men who had clear memories and re-
membered distinctly that they had
bought liquor and paid for it and were
positive of the identity of the man who
had sold it to them.
Sheehan was sentenced by Judge Ma
gaw to thirty days in Jail and was fined
800. He appealed the case to the dis
trict court. Sheehan has been tried sew
eral times before but has succeeded in
clearing himself in most instances. If
Sheehans conviction is followed by
three or four more Of the same class of
offenders the law abiding element in the
city will have cause for rejoicing.
Larry Sheehan was a deputy under
Sheriff Kepley and during part of the
time was in charge of the prisoners at
the county Jail 1t was while he was
jailer that several desperate characters
