ication from Congressman Bowersock

trict court to-day for stealing copper

Each of them demanded separate

FUNSTON HEARD FROM.
Father of His Son Wants to Go to
National Convention.

The contest for delegates to represent
the state in the national Republican con-
vention has caused a strange rafting
among some of the dry bones of Repub-
Hcanism. All over the state there are
men out for this place who have been
relegated to the rear by the younger
blood in the party for several years. The
new man in politics seems inclined to
take all the offices both honorary and
salaried.
The latest candidate to represent the
Second congressional district in the ma
tional convention is reported in the per-
son of e. H. Funston, eX-congressman.
Some of the politicians who are sup
porting Congressman Bowersock, claim
that if Funston is thus honored only a
specific contract would prevent him from
breaking into the congressional race
against Mr.. BoWersOck.
