REPUBLICAN LOSSES.
". l. Brown Says Foreigners Are Not
In Sympathy With Admin
iafrafinn

w. L. Brown of Kingman, who has
been lecturing over the state on Odd
Fellowship, gives the following state
ment of his views, based upon obserya-
ton:
You know there is no politics in Odd
Fellowship, but in spite of that fact one
can not help hearing things that helps
him to form opinions. From what I
have learned of the political situation
in this state I believe that the next
governor of this state will be fusion
ist. 1t would not surprise me if the
Democrats and Populists elect the next
United States senator and nearly all
the congressman.
Il have recently been out among the
Scandinavian element of this state.
They are mostly in Salina, Mcpherson,
Ellsworth and Marion counties. They
are nearly to a man Republicans, but
they are changing very fast on account
of the position of the present admins
tration on the foreign question. The
apparent alliance between this country
and England does not please them.
That is especially true of the Russian
element among them who do not be-
1ieve in war. They left their mother
Gountry because they were opposed to
war and We're forced to do military
duty. The Swede's sympathies are all
with the Beers in this war with Eng
land. 1t seems that large per cent OF
the Beers are of Swedish origin. L talk
ed with several of the leading Swedish
citizens of this state and every one of
them tOlQ me without reservation LudI
they were against the policy of the
present national administration in re-
gard to its dealings with the Beers and
tlaa Philippines as we'll The SWedes
said they left their native country be-
cause the large standing army was op-
prdssive and kept the taxpayers in pow
ertY, They said they would oppose any
policy or party that favored bringing
about such conditions in this country.
Thdy think the holding of the Philip
pines as colonies will necessitate a
and they are radically opposed to it.
| There is no question in my mind that
the Scandinavian element in this state
is afraying itself against the present
national administration because of its
policy in regard to the Beers and the
| Philippines. They are leaving the Re
publican party and the Scandinavian
| people can not be driven from any po-
! sition they take by party bosses"

BRODERICK OUT.
Announces That He Will Sup
port w. J. Bailey.
Part Of the Deal With Bailey
Faction.
ALL DOUBT ENDED.
Mr.. Broderick In Race For Con-
gressman-at- Large.
Will Have Support of the Le-
land Forces.


Case Broderick, of Holton, who has
been regarded as a possible dark horse
in the First congressional district cam
paign, has finally announced where he
stands.
Judge Broderick has announced his
intention of supporting w. ]. Bailey
which is the most convincing evidence
that he has accepted the offer of the
Bailey supporters to aid him to Sc
cure the nomination for congressman
at-large.
1t is repored in Topeka that Broder-
lex once told Charlie Curtis that he
would take no hand in the campaign,
but would permit Bailey and Curtis to
fight it out. Thereafter the deal was
made by which Broderick is to be the
nominee for congressman-at-la large,
since which time he has been helping
Bailey.
In defining his position in the con-
gressional contest Judge Broderick
says:
Mr. Bailey is entitled to the kind
consideration of the First district Re
pubLcans. He helped carry the district
for the Republicans by making
speeches in all parts of it before the
Populists changed Shawnee county into
the district. He always helped when
ever he was called on by the congress
sional committee in former hard cam
paigns.
Should Kansas lose a congressman
Bailey viii be in the district even
if it should be changed back into its
old lines"
Mr.. Broderick states that the Curtis
men are for Burton for senator a fact
which impels him to oppose Curtis.
The Republicans of Jackson county,
said he, ARE strongly for Senator Ba-
ker. His high standing as a SENATOR
his fairness to the other Kansas repre-
sentatives; his energy and hard work
for all the interests of the state have
entitled him to a reelection"

BoNps REGIsTERFD.
Auditor Cole Unable to Stop Town
ship Raid.

After a lengthy controversy State
Auditor George E. Cole has registered
the bonds issued by Delaware township.
Jefferson county, although he made
strong resistance to the action of the
local authorities. Mr.. Cole wanted to
save the municipality $500 a year inter-
est, but was unable to do so, because
those in charge of the deal complied
with all the requirements of the law.
The bonds were registered yesterday.
When the bonds were first presented
the auditor declined to register them.
He pointed out the discrepancies in or
der that the tax payers might avail
themselves of the opportunity to save
so much expenditure for interest, but
the men in charge of the deal engineer
ed it in such a manner that the law
was complied with; proper certificates
furnished to sustain their contention, so
there was nothing for the auditor to do
but to register the bonds.
Delaware township issued $40, 000 in 6
per cent bonds to aid in the cOnStruc-
ton of the Wyandotte & Northwestern
road. A year later the legislature pass
ed a law giving counties, townships and
cities issuing railroad bonds in the fu-
ture the right to take them up or re-
fund them after they had run ten years.
The law, however, did not apply to
bonds issued prior to its passage and
the Delaware township bonds did not
come within it's provision.
A few weeks ago, a Topeka bond firm
entered Into contract with the members
of the board of Delaware township 10
refund the old 6 per cent bonds. The
new bonds were to draw 6 per cent,
also. The transaction simply fastened
the bonds on the township for an addi :
tional period at the old rate of interest.
Then, in order to swing the deal the
township board advertised that it would
take up the old bonds under the set of
1887. It claimed that the bonds were
issued in the winter of 1887, after the
passage of the law. The board got hold
of $4,000 of the bonds and brought
them over to the state auditor to be
Cancelled By comparing the bonds with
his records, he found that the bonds
were registered in 1885, prior to the pas
sage of the law The trustees claimed
that they did not have. the other $28, 900
of the old issue.
The auditor held up the bonds He
claimed that they could not be refund
ed under the 1887 law, and Furthermore,
if they could be refunded at all the
whole issue should be presented at one
time and not a small portion of it. He
made the further point that the tax
payers OF that county were being rob-
bed in interest charges on the proposed
new bond issue. He pointed out that,
if the refunding bonds could be legally
issued, the school fund commissioners
would be glad to take them al 4 per
cent. This would be a saving of 2 per
4 cent interest, or $500 a year AS the

E c. Weilep, of Galena. formerly
speaker pro tenn. of the Kansas house

his old job as a doorkeeper in the SEN
ate at Washington.

found considerable time to come home
and take a hand in political affairs in
this state. He is now back at his post
and hopes to be able to retain the place,
despite the fact that the Republicans
are reorganizing the senate.
Other Kansas men are anxious to get
